Early Education: Seen from 2nd house: 19-1-1889 to 14-12-1895 Ketu Dasa – ketu in the 2nd house of primary education. Ketu is not well placed in Cancer as per Kujavat Ketu theory – ie Ketu is like Mars. The 2nd lord is in Neecha. But at the same time exalted 11th lord Mars is aspecting the 2nd house. But had a few bright spots
Summary – By the exalted Einstein standards, his early education was not really good. For a while he was a top grade student in elementary class, but later had frequent changes, breaks, dropouts and also a failure.
The 2nd house also rules speech. Einstein – born in Merc-Moon dasa – Albert had early speech difficulties till the end of Merc-Rahu in 1-3-1884 – moon in neecha, sun 3rd lord, mars 6th lord & rahu is malefic.
2nd house also rules ones family. Merc-Mars – 11th Lord of long distance traveling Mars, which also rules Electrical trade aspecting the 2nd house which also rules family. Also note mars is 6th lord ruling UNCLE – In 1880, the family moved to Munich, where his father and his uncle founded a company, Elektrotechnische Fabrik J. Einstein & Cie that manufactured electrical equipment, providing the first lighting for the Oktoberfest and cabling for the Munich suburb.
From 1-3-1884 Ketu-Jupiter starts AND…he was a top student in elementary school. When Albert was five, his father showed him a pocket compass. Albert realized that something in empty space was moving the needle and later stated that this experience made “a deep and lasting impression” As he grew, he built models & mechanical devices for fun, and showed talent for mathematics.
Ketu-Venus – Venus 5th lord rules creativity & music In 1889, a family friend named Max Talmud (later: Talmey), a medical student, introduced the ten-year-old Albert to key science and philosophy texts, including Kant’s Critique of Pure Reason and Euclid’s Elements. Einstein called it the “holy little geometry book”. From Euclid, Albert began to understand deductive reasoning (integral to theoretical physics), and 12, he learned Euclidean geometry from a school booklet. He began to investigate calculus. He took violin lessons, and he would later take great pleasure in Mozart’s violin sonatas. .
In his early teens, Albert attended the new and progressive Luitpold Gymnasium, a secondary school in Munich, Germany. His father intended for him to pursue electrical engineering, but Albert clashed with authorities and resented the school regimen. He later wrote that the spirit of learning and creative thought were lost in strict rote learning.
Ketu –Sat – Saturn is 9th lord of foreign travel – In 1894, when Einstein was fifteen, Einstein family moved to Italy. During this time, Albert wrote his first “scientific work”, “The Investigation of the State of Aether in Magnetic Fields”. Albert had been left behind in Munich to finish high school.
Ketu – Merc – Merc in Neecha with malefics & also in Neechabhanga Rajayoga gave a setback but also success. in the spring of 1895, he withdrew to join his family in Pavia, convincing the school to let him go by using a doctor’s note. Rather than completing high school, Albert decided to apply directly to the ETH Zürich, the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology in Zurich, Switzerland. Without a school certificate, he was required to take an entrance examination. He did not pass. Einstein wrote that it was in that same year, at age 16, that he first performed his famous thought experiment, visualizing traveling alongside a beam of light.
4th Merc in 10th Venus 5th exalted in 10th. Venus Mahadasa From 14-12-1895 to 1-9-1915 …And the genius shines
Venus-Venus to Venus-Mars: The Einsteins sent Albert to Aarau, Switzerland to finish secondary school. Albert studied Maxwell’s electromagnetic theory. In 1896, he graduated at age 17 and finally enrolled in the mathematics program at ETH. In 1901 he graduated from ETH with a teaching diploma and also published a paper in the prestigious Annalen der Physik on the capillary forces of a straw.
Venus-Mars 1902 Mars is in the 8th which is 12th from the 9th – His father Hermann Einstein becomes ill and dies.
