Horoscope of Fath-Ali Shah Qajar, 18th Century

Horoscope of Fath-Ali Shah Qajar. A horoscope is an astrological chart representing the positions of the Sun, Moon, planets, astrological aspects, and sensitive angles at the time of an event, such as the moment of a person's birth. Fath-Ali Shah Qajar (September 5, 1772 - October 23, 1834) was the second Qajar emperor (shah) of Iran. His reign saw the forced and irrevocable ceding of Iran's integral northern territories (Caucasian territories), which had made part of its concept for centuries, comprising what is nowadays Georgia, Dagestan, Azerbaijan, and Armenia to the Russian Empire following the Russo-Persian Wars of (1804-13) and (1826-28) and the resulting Treaty of Gulistan and Treaty of Turkmenchay. Historian Joseph M. Upton says that he "is famous among Persians for three things: his exceptionally long beard, his wasp-like waist, and his progeny.".
