----------------------------------------------------------
An Indian Mathematical genius, who invented more than 3900 theories and formulas, which are not only used in Mathematics but also in Polymer Chemistry, Computer Science and many other branches.
Moon Nakshatra is saturn, lagna lord is Saturn aspecting lagna, for research person requires infinite patience and endurance, which is clearly visible.
Ketu in lagna gives the ability for focus at MICRO LEVEL, the clear cut sloka from Jaimini Rishi that ketu make clock repairer.
Mars trines to lagna and aspecting moon gives ability to think logically and to solves the problems by dividing into parts.
Jupiter - mercury yuti as well as PAC in D9 supports that person has blessings of Gurus.Lagna Nakshatra is moon , Jupiter aspecting moon and Rahu+Saturn aspecting Lagna gives intuitive powers.
Exchange of moon [4L] and mars [LL & 8L] in D24 indicate lacks in formal education but research attitude to explore.
His Family Back Ground :
-------------------------
He was born to a very poor Brahmin Family. His father was K. Srinivasa Iyengar, worked as Clerk in a Sari Shop for a monthly salary of Rs. 20.
1) 9H is afflicted and sun in 12H, poor family.
1) 6L is mercury in 3H with jupiter indicating father as clerk.
2) D24 : 9L retro saturn in 8H indicate service and 9H aspected by mercury clerk.
His mother was a house wife, who also used to song at a local temple to earn little money from her side. Ramanujan had a close relationship with his mother. From her he learned about traditions & puranas.
1) Moon in 3H and Moon exalted in D24 indicate mother's boy.
2) In Lagna Ketu is 10th from 4H and In D24 ketu in 4H indicate mother's association with temples as said above.
In June, 1889 his mother gave birth to a son named Sadagopan, who died within three months.
1) Running vimsottari Dasa : saturn\mercury :
a)In lagna mercury in 11H with 3L jupiter.
b)In D3, mercury in 3H as 5L.
c)In both charts mercury is afflicted by rahu and PAC with 12L.
Later in Nov, 1891 and again in 1894 she gave birth, but both children died in infancy.
In Nov 1891 : dasa was saturn\Ven : Venus is D3 lagnesh.
Ramanujan plagued by health problems throughout his life. He lived in extreme poverty and was often on the brink of Starvation.
See lagnesh is retro with rahu and jupiter is afflicted by rahu. Liver is weak and much poisen in body. Jupiter aspecting moon and saturn and exalted in D9 indicating saving grace. But jupiter is also 12L, hence remedies must be continued.
Timeline :
----------
1) Dec, 1889 : had smallpox and recovered by God grace, because at that time thousands of children were dyeing due to same disease.
Dasa Running : Saturn\Ketu, clear cut classical combination for small pox.
2) 1903 : at the age of 16 years Ramanujan obtained a library loaned copy of a book titled "A sysnopsis of Elementary Results in Pure & Applied Mathematics", which generally acknowledged as a key Element in Awakening the "Genius" of Ramanujan.
3) 1904 : was awarded a prize for his Mathematical skills at age of 17 years.
Mercury\Mercury : Mer in 11H as 9L with jupiter, blessing of Shiva is coming.
Mercury is in 11H of awards.
4) 1905 : he ran away from home, due to his failure in getting a scholarship in Govt. College, as he failed all subjects except Maths.
Most probable in mer\mer\saturn.
5) Dec, 1906 : He left college without getting any degree and continued his research work in Mathematics and conducting tuitions to his seniors at the age of 19 years as he was experiencing extreme poverty he had to earn in someway.

Dasa is Mer\sun : sun which is making 'Saral Yoga' is also 5L in D9 gave marriage under parent's arrangement. I don't think he ever had been asked or given any opinion on it.
7) Jan, 1910 : was operated for Hydrocele Testis Surgery by a doctor without taking any fees as Ramanujan's family can not afford the fee.
Same dasa Mer\sun and sun in 12H.

Dasa running : Mer\Mars\Venus :
1) Mars as 4 & 11L in 9H aspected by 7L moon, income started.
2) Mars is in 10H as 11L in D10, got position and income.

Dasa Running : Mercury\Rahu\Venus.
Rahu aspected by 12L Jupiter in 7H with retro saturn and rahu indicate foreigners.
Rahu is in 9H in D10 indicating foreignor support.
Venus is Yog karak in D1 as well as D10.

Dasa Running : Mer\Saturn : here saturn aspected by jupiter is exalted in D9.
13) 13th March, 1919 : was returned to India, as he was living in a country far away, and overly indulged with his mathematical research work, worsened his health (which he was suffering throughout his life) by stress and by scarcity of vegetarian food during first world war.
Mercury \ saturn : health worsened is clearly seen. 7H gives long travels many times.
14) 26th, April 1920 : at the age of 32 this genius mathematician left us, died due to serious health problem, perhaps due to infection of Liver.
Ketu\Ketu : afflicted by saturn and aspected by 22L in D3 and 88L in D12 with no protection was indeed a bad period. Ketu gives boils, ulcers & infection in stomach.
A Rishi born, went to his abode in this period.
