Queen Elizabeth’ chart is unique and needs to be studied deeply by all astrology researchers. She was the queen of the United Kingdom and the head of the common wealth. The horoscope was shared by my Guru Sh. K.N. Rao. Last hundred years saw the fall of most dynasties in the world but she remained strong with high popularity rating. Very few people know that she was not in the direct line of succession to the throne when she was born. Her uncle the Duke of Windsor abdicated the throne, and her father known as George VI became the king. It was her destiny that propelled her father to be the king. While her father ruled the United Kingdom for 16 years, she was the queen for over 70 years.
She was born on 21 Apr 1926 2:48:40 at Greenwich, England.
