During the 6 year long maha dasha of Sun from April 2012 to April 2018 the BJP had transformed itself into an election winning machine under the leadership of Narendra Modi. Sun as the 3rd lord is in the 10th house of power in exchange with the 10th lord Jupiter which as per Parashara is a good Raja Yoga.  It was in September 2013 when Modi was named as the Prime Minister candidate of the BJP for  general elections 2014. Since then the party has seen tremendous rise in both center and the sate politics. It has formed the full majority government at the center and now 19 states are under the BJP and its alliance rule. BJP under Modi and Shah also showed its dominating instinct trying to twist the arms of  media , judiciary and making the opposition leaders submissive. But now the dasha of Kemadruma Moon is going to  start from 18th of April in the horoscope of BJP which astrologically is likely to bring the downfall in party’s electoral performance with Karnataka assembly polls giving it the first blow in 2018. The dasha of Moon will weaken the organization structure of the BJP and they may have to form a coalition government at the center after the general elections of 2019.

Horoscope of BJP 

6 April 1980, 11:45 hours at Delhi 

In the Mithuna (Gemini) lagna horoscope of BJP the Moon is the lord of 2nd house becoming a ‘Maraka’ is badly placed in the 6th house of disputes and quarrels.  Since there is no planet on the either side of Moon so it forms a Kemadruma Yoga. But the Rashi lord of Moon is Mars which is giving  it an aspect making Kemadruma yoga bit weak. Moon is also receiving the aspect from the 5th lord from the lagan Venus. So in a way Moon forms a Raja Yoga despite being badly placed and under afflictions. Moon is debilitated but its debilitation is getting cancelled property as it is receiving the aspect of its ‘Uttcha-Nath’ ( lord of exaltation house) Venus and also its Rashi lord Mars. So Moon dasha will keep BJP in power but it will not remain as strong as it was during the maha dasha of Sun placed in the 10th house getting ‘Digbala’ (directional strength).

Aggressive BJP

The dasha of Moon will make BJP more aggressive than ever before due to the 6th house placement of it. The party will got back to the path of hard line Hindutava and Ram Temple issue soon after the entry of Mars in Makar rashi on the 2nd of May. Makar is the 8th house of BJP where the stay of Mars for about 7 month will make its leader fall into criminal cases and rioting on religious issues. This will be a huge embarrassment for the Prime Minister Modi who had came into the power promising “inclusive growth of all sections of society” (Sabka Saath Sabka Vikas).

But during this dasha of Moon there will lots of internal struggles within the BJP and its election losses will bring some dissatisfaction against the working style  of Modi-Shah  duo who are currently dominating the party with iron hand. The assembly elections in Karnataka, Madhya Pradesh, Rajasthan and Chattishgarh will happen in 2018 during the Moon-Moon ( April 2018 to February 2019) dasha in the horoscope of BJP. The party is likely to loose at least 2 of these 4 big states assembly elections this year which will make them a bit jittery ahead of the general elections in 2019. The Karanataka and Rajasthan  assembly elections are going to be the two big losses for the BJP this year. The Kathua and Unnao rape cases has tarnished the image of BJP’s administrative ability and many more such incidents will expose the arrogance of its leaders in months to come.

In Chara dasha the period of Capricorn-Libra is running from 4 February 2018 to 7 July 2018. The Capricorn is the 8th house from the ascendant and it is the 6th house from the Atamakaraka Saturn. So this dasha is going to be bit difficult for the BJP. The Rashi Dasha of Capricorn is from the April 2017 to April 2022. The BJP has faced tough competition from the Congress in the recently concluded Gujarat assembly elections in November 2017 which were held during the operation of this Capricorn (Makar) dasha in the chart of party. Now the Libra (Tula) sub period  looks bit better as the Amatayakaraka Moon aspect the 10th from it and the Atamakaraka Saturn is in the 11th house from Libra. But since the Maha Dasha of Moon in Vimshotari and the Rashi dasha of Capricorn both are weak so the good sub period may only give BJP a satisfactory polls performance not the absolute rout of opposition as it was doing in earlier elections.

Horoscope of the Congress I 

2 January 1978, 12:00 hours at Delhi 

The Congress party is trying to recover from the rout it has faced during the Modi wave. The Congress was ousted from power in the general elections in 2014 when it was running under the bad 6/8 dasha of Jupiter-Mercury in its Pisces lagan horoscope. Mercury is in the enemy rashi Scorpio and is debilitated in the Navamsha chart. The party lost many state assembly elections to the BJP and at present it is in power only two major states Punjab and Karnataka. Now during Jupiter-Venus period from January 2017 to September 2019 the Congress party is looking to revive itself under the new leadership of Rahul Gandhi who was handed over the baton of party in November last year. The Congress had perform well in the Gujarat assembly polls give a tough fight to the BJP. Astrologically they are expected to win Karnataka and Rajasthan assembly elections and will give a tough fight to BJP in Madhya Pradesh and Chattishgarh assembly polls.

In the general elections of 2019 the Congress may get more than 100 seats recovering from the last elections dismal performance of 44 seats. Venus the anter dasha lord is taking the bad lordship of 3rd and 8th house can’t give them high success but it being under the good aspect of Jupiter in both Rashi and Navamsha will make party a tough opponent of the BJP in coming years. In Chara dasha the period of Leo (Simha) from January 2012 to January 2020 has to be difficult one for Congress as this Rashi is the 6th house from both ascendant and Karakamsha. The Leo contain the Ganatikaraka Saturn showing court cases troubling the party leadership. Both Rahu Gandhi and Sonia Gandhi will remain under stress due to National Herald corruption case running against them in Patiala House court in Delhi.

During the time of Karnataka assembly polls in May 2018 the Congress would be under Jupiter-Venus-Rahu period from 27 December 2017 to 24 May 2018. The sub period lord Rahu is excellently placed in the 7th house along with 5th lord Moon in a good yoga. So the party will get success in Karnataka and can form a coalition government there.

Now we will see the horoscopes of the some of the important leaders in Karnataka state to astrologically assess the possible out come of the assembly polls in coming month of May.

Horoscope of H.D. Kumaraswamy

16 December 1959, 18:08 hours at Hassan (Karnataka)

Longitude 76 E 05’ and Latitude 12 N 57’

 

Balance of Dasa in Vimshottari: Rahu 6 years 9 months and 11 days

In the Gemini lagna horoscope of H.D. Kumaraswamy, who is the chief minister candidate from JDS, the 10^th lord Jupiter badly placed in the 6^th house from both lagna and Moon explains why he was unable to cling to the power for a longer period despite being a popular leader in the state. His party had coalitions with both Congress and BJP in past but they were not successful which is astrologically explainable from the poor 7^th house in the chart of Kumaraswamy. He was chief minister of the state for a brief period from February 2006 to October 2007 during his Mercury-Venus Dasa in Vimshottari. Venus being the 5^th lord placed in its own sign in the 5^th house of ministerial post is exalted in both Navamsa and Dasmasa charts. But his stint as the chief minister didn’t went long as the maha Dasa lord Mercury is not involve in any great Raja Yoga here. Mercury is also in ‘Mrityu-Bhagh’ . As per Jaimini system  Atamakaraka Jupiter is in the 6^th house along with Ganatikaraka Mercury and Bhatrikaraka Mars which is a weakness here as it is not forming any Raja yoga. The Amatayakaraka Venus and Putarakaraka Saturn are not connected with Atamakaraka in his chart which is a hindrance  for making  a big success in political career.

At present he is running with the ‘Dasa-chiddra’ of Mercury-Saturn in Vimshottari which will end on the 27^th of September when Ketu Dasa will begin for a period of 7 year. The anter Dasa lord Saturn is placed in the 7^th house of coalition partners. But since Saturn is in enemy sign in Navamsa and is in debilitation in Dasmasa chart so its Dasa will not give him much great results. In transit the Saturn is moving from Sagittarius where it gets  only 19 Ashtakavarga points in the Rasi chart of Kumaraswamy which is insufficient. The coming Dasa of Ketu is promising tough , as it is strongly placed at the 10^th house receiving the aspect of 10^th lord Jupiter. So astrologically it is possible that his party can get enough seats to put him in a position where he can play an important role in forming the new government. The Chara Dasa of Virgo-Gemini ( from August 2017 to June 2018) looks fine here as Amatayakaraka Venus is well placed from the Dasa Rasi’s. So he can get some ministerial post for himself in the new government in state.

Horoscope of B.S. Yeddyurappa

27 February 1943, 03:00 hours at Mandya district  (Karnataka)

Longitude 76E 54’ and Latitude 12N 33’ 

  

Balance of Dasa in Vimshottari: Jupiter 0 years 9 months 18 days

B.S. Yeddyurappa is the chief minister candidate from the BJP in Karnataka. He will be turning 75 this year and is under the Dasa of 8^th lord Moon placed in the 12^th house which is not very promising. Earlier he was the chief minister of the Karnataka from May 2008 to July 2011 during his Dasa of 9^th lord Sun which is Vargottama. In his Sagittarius lagna horoscope the Sun maha Dasa ( December 2006 to December 2012) has to give him good results as it receives the aspect of lagna lord Jupiter. But now since December 2012 he is under the Dasa of debilitated Moon which is badly placed in the 12^th house in mutual aspect with malefic Saturn. After being expelled from the BJP he had formed his own party during this Dasa of Moon which was a bad experience of his political career. His Karnataka Janata Paksha (KJP) could manage only 8 assembly seats but since it got the 10% of votes so it resulted into a huge loss for the BJP in the elections of 2013. Later BJP reconcile with Yeddyurappa by sidelining the claim of K.S. Eshwarappa for the chief ministerial candidature. Now since Yeddyurappa’s rejoining the BJP in 2014 the party has seen some problems from the Eshwarappa group’s members. The intrigues in the party might give some damage to Yeddyurappa during the assembly polls as the running Dasa of Moon-Saturn ( from March 2017 to October 2018) suggest in his horoscope.

The Dasa lord Moon and Saturn are at the 6/12 axis in the Rasi chart of Yeddyurappa. Saturn is debilitated in Navamsa chart and in Dasmasa it is in the 6^th house of disputes. This Dasa of Moon-Saturn doesn’t show any chances of his becoming the chief minister of the state for the second time. Although later the Moon-Mercury period starting from October 2018 will give him a position in the central politics like becoming a member of parliament in the upper house (Rajya Sabha). Mercury as the 10^th lord in the 2^nd house can give him some honorary position.

Horoscope of Siddaramaiah

12 August 1948, 13:05 hours at Maysore (Karnataka)

Longitude 76E 00’ and Latitude 13N 30’

Balance of Dasa in Vimshottari: Jupiter 1 year 1 month 18 days

Now I will discuss the horoscope of Siddaramaiah which is of Scorpio lagna. A good Gaja Kesari yoga by 9^th lord Moon and 5^th lord Jupiter  in the lagna has given him a very clean image. He was earlier in the Janata Dal and after its split joined the Janata Dal Secular (JDS). He left the JDS after having disputes with H.D. Deva Godwa in 2005. He joined the Congress party later and become the chief minister in May 2013 during his Vimshottari Dasa of Sun-Moon ( January 2013 to July 2013). The Dasa of 10^th lord Sun has to give him good results as it is conjoined with 11^th lord  Mercury in Rasi chart at the auspicious 9^th house of luck. In the Dasmasa the Sun is in the 5^th house of minister’s post along with Mercury and receives the aspect of Jupiter which is the lord of 9^th house there. Now Siddaramaiah is under Sun-Venus period from September 2017 to September 2018. This is his ‘Dasa-Chiddra’ and next Dasa will be of 9^th lord Moon which is in the ascendant in a great Yoga. The Sun and Venus are at the 2/12 from each other which is not good. Venus as the 12^th lord in the 8^th house is making a ‘Veeprit-Raja-Yoga’. In Navamsa and Dasmasa the Venus is the lord of 11^th house of gains.

So it is highly likely that Siddaramaiha will gains from some adversaries. His party Congress will not be able to get the full majority in the assembly but they might make a coalition with H.D. Kumaraswamy’s JDS to form the government. The anter Dasa lord Venus in the horoscope of Siddaramaiha is the lord of 7^th house which shows coalition or partnership. He will succeed in getting the support of JDS after the elections. In Chara Dasa the period of Scorpio-Gemini is running from December 2017 to October 2018. The Scorpio is having Ganatikaraka Moon and Bhatrikaraka Jupiter which receives the Jaimini aspect of Amatayakaraka Sun and Atamakaraka Mercury forming a Raja Yoga. But the anter Dasa Rasi Gemini is the Rasi of 8^th house from the ascendant and the 12^th house from both Atamakaraka and Amatayakaraka. So forming the government will be a difficult task for him. There will be a hung assembly in which Congress led by Siddaramaiha will be marginally ahead of the BJP led by Yeddyurappa. However, since Siddaramaiha and his minister D.K. Shivkumar’s chart, which i have with me but have not discuss it here,  is more promising than their BJP opponents so the Congress is more likely to get the support from the JDS to form a coalition government in Karnataka.
