Astrological career.
Abeygunawardena was the self-proclaimed "Royal Astrologer" to the former Sri Lankan President Mahinda Rajapaksa, and his main work was identifying auspicious timing for the president's political acts. Before calling presidential elections two years ahead of schedule, Rajapaksa consulted Abeygunawardena, who foresaw a "big victory" not just for a third but also a fourth term in office due to Rajapaksa's "great inborn power". However, Rajapaksa lost the election to his main opponent Maithripala Sirisena. Abeygunawardena initially declined to comment on this wrong prediction and avoided the media, but later said that "even Nostradamus got things wrong."
