Tiger Woods, born December 30, 1975 at 10:50 PM (AA rating) in Long Beach, California, is an American professional golfer whose achievements to date rank him among the most successful golfers of all time. Currently the world number 1, he was the highest paid professional athlete in 2008, having earned approximately $110 million in winnings and endorsements. Using the time available on the internet, Tiger Woods is a Virgo ascendant in the Vedic Astrology chart with an ascendant of 0 degrees and 59 minutes. The rising lord Mercury is in the constellation of lord Sun 12 (loss), and the sun is in the 4th house. This chart does not indicate celebrity status. Many Vedic and Western astrologers continue to make predictions for Tiger Woods using this incorrect chart and incorrect birth time. Using the important events of the past in Tiger Wood’s life, Tiger Woods’ birth time is corrected to 10:25:25 PM So the correct birth time is 10:25:25 PM and the correct Ascendant is Leo at 25 degrees 47 minutes using KP Ayanamsa. This makes Sun the ascendant lord of him.

The ascendant lord Sun is in the 4th house in the constellation of the lord Venus in the 3rd house (Contract Ads) and 10th house (Career and position), and Venus is in the 3rd house. This makes the lord of the Ascendant very strong and indicates a very high level of success and celebrity status. Mercury is the best planet in Tiger Wood’s chart, as Mercury rules the 2nd house of money, the 11th house wins, and is located in the 5th house of entertainment, sports, celebrity status, affairs , romance, etc., and Mercury is in the constellation of Mr. Ascendant. Sun. So Mercury in one stroke connects the Ascendant (I), the 2nd house of money, the 11th house of earnings and the 5th house of sports, entertainment, love affairs and romance. Venus rules the 3rd house of Contracts and the 10th house of Career, and status in life is in the constellation of the 6th (loss to competitors) and 7th (marriage, business) house lord Saturn and Saturn is in the 11th house of profit. Also Saturn is in its own constellation, very powerful. Jupiter, ruler of the 5th house of sports and entertainment, and the 8th house (sudden wealth) is also in the constellation of the 2nd (money) and 11th (earnings) lord Mercury again in the 5th house (sports).

As we have seen, Tiger Woods’ success, name and fame came during Venus Mahadasha Jupiter Bhukti (October 1994 to June 1997), Venus Mahadasha Saturn Bhukti (June 1997 to August 2000) and Venus Mahadasha Mercury Bhukti ( August 2000 to June 2003). During these stints, Tiger won Master’s in April 1997, Contracts, Deals 1997 Advertising Contracts worth $60 million over five years, Sports Illustrated “Sportsman of the Year” in December 1996, 1999 PGA Championship Award, US Open 2000, British Open July 2000, Second consecutive PGA championship in August 2000, fourth consecutive major championship in April 2001, won third Masters in April 2002, began significant relationship on November 25 2003 (became engaged to Elin Nordegren).

Tiger Woods card is not good for happiness in marriage as it is Leo Ascendant. The 7th house of Marriage, Mr. Saturn, also rules the 6th house of separation at the same time, and Saturn is in the 11th house of earnings and friendships in his own Nakshatra. This makes Saturn a very strong signifier of the seventh house (marriage) and the sixth house (separation).

Currently, Tiger Woods is in Sun Mahadasha Venus Bhukti from August 2009 to August 2010. Tiger has Venus and Moon in Scorpio, Venus at 5 degrees 05 minutes and Moon at 28 degrees 43 minutes. Transiting Saturn is in Virgo and aspects both natal Venus and natal Moon at the same time. Transit Sun the ascendant lord of Tiger and transit Venus the ruler of the 10th house of career, and position in life entered Scorpio and received the third aspect of the transit of Saturn in Virgo, and the moon on November 27 entered into the constellation of Saturn when the night of Tiger Woods car accident that left him bleeding on the driveway in front of his house, has only led to more questions, not answers. The period until the end of 2010 is not good for Tiger’s career, as Saturn’s transit from Virgo will be aspecting natal Venus, the career lord in the 10th house. His marriage will end in October 2011 when transiting Saturn aspects his natal moon, and Tigre will be in the moon’s mahadasha at that time, a strong 12th house significator of separation. The period from June 2011 to January 2012 will be a very sensitive period for Tiger as he will be in Moon Mahadasha and Mars Bhukti. The Badhaka planet for Tiger is Mars, the ruler of the 4th and 9th house, and Mars is in his own nakshatra, it is the most evil planet in his chart. I see some important events related to his property, since Mars, the planet Badhaka, also rules the fourth house, which represents real estate.
