Astrological analysis:

Mr. Kalam was born in the Saturn Nakshatra [Anuradha] which is the lord of the 7th house and 8th house and posited in the 6th house of debt and obstacles, so it endowed him with hard and harsh childhood.

Cancer ascendant indicates the placement of the Moon in the Scorpio sign in the 5th house of creativity in its debited sign. It indicates the auspiciousness of the horoscope to be very low. But the aspect of 9th house lord exalted Jupiter neutralized the debited effect of Moon. This chart is an excellent example that even debilitated planets can work for you with your constant efforts.
Saturn posting in the 2nd house from Moon made him a man of few words and he spoke only when it was required.

Raj Yogas in our Ex-President horoscope made him an accomplished man-

Hamsa yoga-

Jupiter in the ascendant in its exalted sign in the nakshatra of Mercury and has the lordship of 6th and 9th house. So, Jupiter activated both the house of finance and service - 2nd and 6th house by its aspect which urged him to earn at a very young age.

Budh Aditya Yoga-

The entire student life of Mr. Kalam was under the influence of Mercury and Mercury is exalted making a Budh-Aditya with Sun in the 3rd house. The planet of education Mercury and Jupiter both aspected the 9th house of higher education and exalted Jupiter aspect which made him capable of completing his graduation with ease despite so many adversaries.

Malavya Yoga

The events and the things were moving at a normal pace in his life for overall prosperity. The 4th house lord Venus placed in its own sign gave him a boost and recognition during its own dasha period and his initiative became strong to work hard with efforts to pursue his aspirations.

Vipreet RajYoga

The placement of the 8th house lord Saturn in the 6th house and the placement of the 6th house lord Jupiter in the ascendant in its exalted sign with the association of Moon gave him all the qualities required to gain core knowledge. The 8th house lord Saturn is in Venus Nakshatra which activated the Vipreet Rajyoga and his 8th house of research was activated and he entered into the launching of missile for India.

Astrologically the lord of his marriage house, Saturn is placed in the 6th house of service, and it is posited in the 12th house from his marriage house which made him work with dedication for his country without any break, but his personal life was lost and he did not crave for the necessity of the domestic arena.
When he was honored as the11th President of India in the year 2002, he was under the transit of his fortune lord Jupiter which was exalted at that time placed in the ascendant with his exalted natal Jupiter and this rare and reverend combination gave him the highest post of India.
Mercury, the lord of communication and writing, was exalted in the 3rd house that made him write 17 books on different topics which was yet another of his great achievements.

Astrological combination that triggered his death in the year 2015:

The astrological combination that affected his death trail was that Saturn was in conjunction with Moon in transit which compelled the 8th house of death to be activated. The aspect of the transit Ketu on the transit Saturn again highlighted the 8th house of death and Ketu is the planet of salvation and placed in the nakshatra of Moon triggered his death events more profoundly accompanied by Venus which was placed in the 2nd house that is called the badhak house, which supported the events for Mr. Kalam death.

Mr. Abdul Kalam was a man of substance with good technical knowledge and good communication, but a man of few words. He worked for the development of India with compassion for humanity.
