Shah Rukh Khan, a modern-day "King of Hearts" and an extraordinary example of a rags-to-riches story, is a global icon in entertainment. His astrological horoscope reveals much about his true character and his public image. Let's delve into the planetary positions that have blessed this living legend.

Shah Rukh Khan's ascendant is Leo, with Purva Phalguni rising. The lord of this sign, the Sun, sits in an Upachaya house, and the sign of Venus gives him a regal nature and a growth mindset. The ascendant lord is in a movable sign, and with the Moon in another movable sign, this helps him achieve success through struggle and wandering. Because the ascendant lord is weak and debilitated, his childhood was less than privileged. The aspect of Saturn on his ascendant brought many sorrows early in life. The malefic planets Mars, Rahu, and Ketu on the 4th and 10th house axis led to the sudden loss of both his mother and father. This loss fueled his material desires and pushed him to take the entertainment industry by storm.

The Panch Mahapurush Yogas of Saturn and Mars being in their own signs in the 4th and 7th houses gave him immense material success and recognition. Rahu in Taurus helps one influence the public in an extremely hypnotic way, and its lord, Venus, in the 5th house of entertainment, made him an actor. This is supported by the Dhan Yoga Karaka lord, Mercury, with the 9th lord, Mars, in the 4th house, which brought him significant financial success. This is also supported by the 8th lord, Jupiter, in the 11th house, aspecting the ascendant lord, the Sun, in the 3rd house, which grants many sudden financial gains. The 3rd lord's aspect of Venus on Jupiter also contributes to this. Venus and Jupiter are wealth givers; their influence on the 5th house shows that his good deeds from past lives have a rewarding impact on his present life.

The Vipreet Raja Yoga from the 12th lord, the Moon, in the 6th house in its own nakshatra of Shravana, gave him success but with struggle and hardship. Those born under Shravana are observers and good listeners, so they become philosophical and wise over time. This explains why people are inspired not just by his film work but also by his wise speeches and witty comments. His quick wit comes from Mercury being with Mars and Ketu, but it can also lead to daring speech that sometimes invites trouble. Currently, Shah Rukh Khan is in the Mahadasha of Mercury, which can bring huge controversies due to his aggressive and impulsive behavior.

The Sun in the 10th house from the Moon gives him a celebrated career but also many ups and downs and great failures, due to the Sakata Yoga created by the Moon and Jupiter in a 6/8 position. Jupiter and Saturn being retrograde intensifies their positive effects but also makes one work extremely hard to achieve anything. This is evident in Mr. Khan's discipline and consistency, as he has entertained us for decades without ever taking a break.

He began gaining recognition around 1992 with the film Deewana when he was in his Jupiter Mahadasha. Jupiter is in the sign of Gemini, which represents communication and media, and is in the nakshatra of Ardra, ruled by Rahu, which gives a sudden rise in life. Jupiter is the 5th house lord and is aspected by the 10th lord, Jupiter, which brought him success and superstardom very early in his career. Although retrograde, Jupiter is a slow-moving planet that has the impact of the fast-moving Venus and Mars, giving Shah Rukh Khan the reputation and title of "King" in the early 2000s, in the middle of his Jupiter Mahadasha. The connection of the Sun and Venus, when connected to Jupiter, makes a person act and think like a ruler, which has always been his basic nature—he always believed he would be king. His mindset is strong, and so is his ability to manifest his desires, thanks to the beneficial impact on the 5th house, which gives him an optimistic and wishful way of thinking. The Moon having Venus in the 12th house from it supports his giving nature while also allowing him to receive immense material success and the love of society.

Currently, Shah Rukh Khan's Mercury Mahadasha is a pure Maraka Dasha, sitting in the 4th house with a malefic planet. This can bring serious accidents and issues related to his heart, so he needs to keep a check on his health while entertaining the world with a young man's stamina. His excess caffeine intake can be harmful to his health. Mars here can be helpful by providing divine support, as it is the 9th lord.

Shah Rukh Khan is one of the few people on Earth, after Michael Jackson, to be awarded recognition in every single continent. This wide fame came from the beneficial impact of the 3rd lord in the 5th house, with an aspect of Jupiter being the 5th lord. The 9th lord, Mars, having the aspect of the 7th lord of Saturn, helped him attain fame beyond a common human's expectation.

One can learn from a certain observation of a dasha here: The Rahu Mahadasha, despite being exalted and aspected by Yoga Karaka Mars and Dhan Yoga Karaka Mercury, did not give him much success but changed his life in a sudden way. His extreme sorrow and disappointment fueled him to challenge the status of any celebrity in the world and become a ruler. The Rahu dasha was not able to give success because its lordship of Venus was in the 8th house from it, while sitting in the Rohini nakshatra of the Moon, which is the 12th lord, sitting in the 6th house.

All in all, the planets blessed the beautiful soul of Mr. Shah Rukh Khan, who in turn taught us what it is to love and live the way our heart loves to.
