Saturn transit from Pisces – What it foretells for India and the World ?

April 2, 2025 By Sachin Malhotra

On 29 March, on the day of Amavasya, the transit Saturn left Aquarius sign and entered Pisces at about 08:29 pm as per the Indian standard time. Saturn stays in one zodiac sign for two and a half years, where it also becomes retrograde due to its distance from the Sun. Transit of Saturn in Jupiter’s signs Sagittarius and Pisces can bring big upheavals, especially in the stock market and gold as Jupiter is the natural karaka for the finance and gold. For India, Saturn’s transit in Pisces can prove to bring radical changes, especially in the government policies related to the economy. Transiting in the eleventh house of gains in the Taurus ascendant horoscope of the independent India (15 August 1947, midnight Delhi), Saturn will aspect the fifth house, due to which the government can announce a new economic policy this year. Leo ascendant is rising in India’s Hindu New Year horoscope this year, in which, due to the aspect of Mars, Jupiter, the Sun, Mercury and Venus on the 2nd house of wealth, the central government can take a big decision on disinvestment, privatization and freebies schemes.

Classical Reference about Saturn in Pisces from the book Varsha Prabodha at page number 148.

Along with this, there will be a big change in the devaluation of rupee and land related laws in India. Major changes can be made in the the Goods and Service Tax (GST), which will cause a lot of turmoil in the stock market this year, especially after the lunar eclipse on 7th of September.

Strong Earthquakes and sea storms foreseen

According to the book of Mundane Astrology , Varsha Prabodh, in the chapter Shani-Chaar Adhyay, “If Saturn is in Pisces, then the earth keeps trembling, winds blow, earthquakes happen in Pataal Desha (America), etc., there is chaos in Sindhu and mountains, as big trees falls , kings get destroyed, humans get destroyed, clouds get scarce and the whole world gets revolved by the strong winds”. Now the erudite readers will have to keep it in mind that since the Hindu astrology texts are written in the poetic style of Sanskrit shlokas, therefore the good and bad results of the planets have been exaggerated. As per our humble understanding this transit of Saturn in Pisces, there may be a possibility of earthquakes in some places, especially in the California province of USA, Peru, Mexico, Caribbean etc. in the next two months. In the South East of India, there is a possibility of sea storm in Odisha and Andhra Pradesh in the next two months due to the conjunction of Saturn-Rahu in the watery sign Pisces. Since both these planets will afflict the Purva Bhadrapada constellation, therefore according to the Koorma Chakra, there will be a possibility of earthquakes in Kashmir, Pakistan and Afghanistan, etc. in the northern direction. Around the time of the lunar eclipse of the 7th of September 2025 there will be an earthquake in these areas.

In the months of April-May, there will be more incidents of strong dust storms and lightning in eastern Uttar Pradesh and Bihar this year. The conjunction of Saturn and Rahu will be in Pisces and due to this, the transit of Mars in Gemini in the angle from it there is also a possibility of abnormal rainfall and some earthquakes in the northern Himalayan mountains.

Iran will be in great danger

In Pisces Saturn’s conjunction with Rahu will increase the inauspicious results in the Virgo Ascendant Israel’s foundation horoscope (14 May 1948, 4 pm Tel Aviv). Under the Maha Dasha of Rahu sitting in the eighth house, Israel has been involved in a dangerous war with Iran-backed terrorist organization Hamas since October 2023.

Chart 2. Foundation Horoscope of Israel

Now, due to Saturn’s conjunction with Rahu in transit, Israel can launch a major airstrike in the next 2 to 3 months to destroy its enemy Iran’s nuclear program. The growing tension between Iran and Israel will increase restlessness among Indian workers in Central Asia and inflation can also increase again for some time. Rahu-Rahu-Sun from 22nd of April 2025 to 11th of June 2025 and the Rahu-Rahu-Mars from 1st of September 2025 to 28th of October 2025 will be the most dangerous period for Israel when they can attack the nuclear program sites of Iran and in retaliation the Ayatollah Ali Khemani can order a large drone attack on Tel Aviv.

Chart 3. Foundation Horoscope of Russia

This transit of Saturn and Rahu in Pisces will be on the seventh house of Russia’s foundation horoscope (12 June 1990, 1:45 pm). Russia’s national horoscope, like Israel, is also of Virgo ascendant. Russian forces have been fighting inside Ukraine since February 2022. Due to this, the whole of Europe is going through a political crisis and inflation has increased all over the world due to an energy crisis in this region. Russia, which is going through the Maha Dasha of Markesh Jupiter, will not stop the war against Ukraine this year. In such a situation, India can be seen taking some positive steps towards getting a peace agreement between Russia and Ukraine. Jupiter is the lord of the 4th (land) and 7th (war) in the foundation horoscope of Russia but it is a functional malefic also due to ‘Kendra-Adhipati-Dosha’. Jupiter is placed in the 10th house of political power and it is afflicted by the aspect of 8th lord Mars. In Navamsha Jupiter is the lord of the 12th house of losses. So, due to the bad position of Jupiter in transit from Gemini the health of Russian President Vladimir Putin will suffer from June 2025 to June 2026. The transit Saturn in Pisces will be over the natal Mars, which is 8th lord, in the foundation horoscope of Russia shows change of regime in the country in the next 2 years time.

Hindu New Year Horoscope and German Federal Elections 2025

February 7, 2025 By Sachin Malhotra

On the 23rd of February Germany will vote to elect 630 members of Bundestag (her parliament), although these elections were schedule to be held on the 28th of September but last year the ruling coalition government fall. The coalition of Social Democrats, Free Democrats and Greens parted their ways due to having disputes on economic and social policy issues. Now the Social Democratic party chancellor Olaf Scholz is facing a tough challenge from his opponent Friedrich Merz leading the Union Parties (CDU/CSU). As per the Hindu New Year horoscope of Germany for 2024 the strong 6th house and 7th house indicate that the opposition will become strong and the ruling Social Democrats led by Chancellor Olaf Scholz will face a defeat in the Federal Elections on 23rd of February.

In Mundane astrology the 10th house is taken for the ruling government and the lagna is the ruler and his cabinet. The 8th house is the end of the government and 12th house is loss for the ruling party. The 6th house is the fight from the opposition. And the 7th house is the challenger or the major opposition leader. The given below points we study in a Hindu New Year horoscope of a country to forecast the election result as per Hindu Astrology rules.

The 10th lord connected with Dusthana lords (6th, 8th and/or 12th) or the lords of Dusthaana in the 10th house then it can give fall of the incumbent government.
King of the New Year and/or luminaries (Sun and the Moon) becoming lords of 8th or 12th houses in Rashi and/or Shashtiamsha (D-60) or placed in these houses are also bad for the incumbent government.
The 10th lord connected with trine or Kendra lords or in the 2nd or 11th houses/lords is good for the continuity of the government.
The lord of the 6th and/or 7th houses connected with the 3rd, 6th, 10th , 11th (Upachaya Houses) or lagna give an advantage to the opposition party and its leader in the elections.

Chart 1. Horoscope of Hindu New Year 2024 for Germany

In the Hindu New Year horoscope of Germany, the Libra lagna is rising. The 10^th lord the Moon is in the 6^th house and its aspect the 12^th house of change. The 8^th lord (end of the government) Venus is with the 10^th lord the Moon.

In Shashtiamsha (D-60) of the Hindu New Year horoscope of Germany the Scorpio lagna is rising where the 10^th lord (government) is the Sun in conjunction with the 8^th lord (fall of government) Mercury and they are in mutual aspect with the 12^th lord Venus showing the change of government after the coming elections. In Shastiamsah also the 7th house of the opposition is stronger as compare to the lagna which signify the ruling party. Thus, in the coming Federal elections of Germany in February 2025 the ruling Social Democratic Party of Olaf Scholz is likely to face a defeat and the opposition led by Friedrich Merz can came into power.

The foundation horoscope of Germany is set for the date and time of her political unification on 3 October 1990 after the fall of the wall of Berlin when the east and west Germany were united again. In the Cancer lagna foundation horoscope of Germany the Vimshottari Dasha of 3^rd and 12^th lord Mercury and the ongoing ‘Sadhe-Sati’ is showing her struggling economy at present. The Maha Dasha of Mercury, which is a functional malefic here, is running since June 2019. Germany’s GDP growth rate is only 1.10% at present and the current Mercury-Venus Dasha in Vimshottari (November 2022 to September 2025) don’t show much progress in it.

Venus as the 4^th lord in the 3^rd house also shows a fall of government as the 4^th house is the house of the throne of the ruler of incumbent government. The transiting Saturn from Aquarius aspect the 10^th house and the transiting Jupiter over the 10^th lord Mars complete the double transit effect over the 10^th house/lord in the foundation chart of Germany which can bring a change of regime.

Oath Taking horoscope of Donald Trump 2.0 – Will he complete his tenure ?

January 26, 2025 By Sachin Malhotra

In the historic elections held in the USA on November 5 th last year, Republican Party leader Donald Trump returned to power after 4 years by defeating Democratic Party’s presidential candidate Kamala Harris who is of an Indian origin. Under the leadership of Donald Trump, the Republican Party has secured a simple majority in both the US Senate and the lower house of the American Congress, which will now help them to pass some important bills. With the far-right Donald Trump securing a majority in both the US Senate and Congress, some fears and apprehensions are floating in the minds of the liberals of the USA The immigrants living illegally or deficient documents are especially losing their sleep. As per the oath taking horoscope of Donald Trump, his birth chart and the Hindu New Year Horoscopes of USA for coming 4 years it appears that President Donald Trump will not be able to complete his tenure.

It is interesting to note that originally the US constitution had set the Presidential inauguration on the 4th of March but in 1933, the 20th Amendment shortened the lengthy gap between the elections (November first week) and the swearing-in timings. The transition period from November elections to January swearing-in of US President has been kept considering crucial for the president-elect to assemble a team, nominate cabinet members and begin formulating key policies. For this reason President Trump was able to sign dozens of executive orders to overturn about 70 key policy decisions of the previous Biden administration {Refer link – https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025/jan/20/tump-executive-orders-list }

During Donald Trump’s first term (November 2016 to November 2020), additional import duty on goods imported from China and India, strict sanctions on Iran, stopping illegal immigrants from Mexico, strengthening diplomatic relations with Russia and North Korea, etc., shocking decisions had surprised the whole world. On the January 20th 2025 , at 12:02 pm, Donald Trump, took oath of his office and immediately afterwards signed important executive orders such as declaring emergency at South border with Mexico to stop illegal immigration, renaming the Gulf of Mexico, Leaving the world health organization (WHO), ending birth right citizenship, declaring a national energy emergency etc.

Chart 1. Oath Taking horoscope of Donald Trump 2.0

Tithi: Krishna Saptami, Day- Monday , Nakshatra – Chitra , Yoga- Sukarma, Karana- Vishti and Hora at birth is of the Sun.

But by declaring a state of emergency Southern border, he imposed a ban on the illegal immigrants coming from Mexico. In the oath taking horoscope of Donald Trump of Aries ascendant, the ascendant lord Mars is sitting in its sign of debilitation in Cancer in the fourth house of the throne in a retrograde state, which may inspire Trump to take some shocking decisions in the coming days in a very quick and most erratic manner. Since Mars is Ati Vakri i.e. retrograde in extreme speed so he may also have to roll back many of his important decision. Already four US states has put up cases in Federal Courts challenging Donald Trump’s decision of pardoning the accused of the January 6th Capital hill violence in 2021 and also the order ending citizenship at birth.

Trump’s havoc can break out on Iran this year

As soon as he won the election in November last year, Donald Trump created a stir in international politics by expressing his desire to take over the Panama Canal and Greenland by the US government. Trump put Justin Trudeau under pressure by announcing additional duty on goods imported from Canada, due to which his own party forced him to resign from the post of Prime Minister of the country in January this year. Canada is already under economic crisis and we had discuss her foundation horoscope in detail at this blog earlier. Now, in Donald Trump’s Aries lagna oath taking horoscope, due to Mars’ aspect on the tenth house of power and the seventh house of foreign policy, there are clear astrological indications of the return of the era of America’s pressurizing and threatening international diplomacy. In the Navamsa of the oath taking horoscope Mars being in the tenth house is giving aspects to the ascendant which will make Donald Trump very aggressive in its second tenure.

Saturn too, by aspecting the ascendant of the Navamsha of the oath taking horoscope, can inspire Trump to run the US government in a very autocratic manner. This will naturally create fear in the enemy countries of America, including Iran, especially in April-May this year when the inauspicious conjunction of Saturn and Rahu in transit will be afflicting the Pisces sign. By increasing its military activities in the Persian Gulf and Syria, America can also carry out a surgical strike on some of Iran’s nuclear installations this year along with Israel who is already eying on to destroy the nuclear capabilities of Iran.

More Troubles for India-USA relations

I have been forewarning this time and again in my articles on this blog and also at Hindi News Paper Navbhart Times dot com about problems in India-USA relations. The transiting Saturn from Aquarius is afflicting the natal Moon of the foundation horoscope of USA (4 July 1776, 10:20 a.m. at Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, USA) and for India the transiting Saturn is in the 8th house of her natal Moon in Cancer which is ‘Ashtam Shani’ Gochar. India is set to take 18,000 citizens from the USA who are undocumented immigrants. Many more Indian’s will be deported back from USA in humiliated manner in the next 2 years. Donald Trump has also threatened BRICS nations with 100% tariff over their de-dollarization policy i.e. trading between themselves without using USA dollar. Trumps policy of trade hegemony is all set to present new dangers for the emerging economies of India, Brazil, South Africa, Indonesia etc. who were looking to trade in local currencies.

Weak Moon in Trump’s oath taking horoscope

The position of the Moon is very important in the oath taking horoscope. In the swearing-in horoscope of Donald Trump the Moon as the lord of the 4th house (rulers throne) is badly placed in the 6th house of disputes and disease and is in conjunction with Ketu (i.e. South Node of the Moon). Although the aspect of Jupiter as the 9th lord on the Moon is good but the Moon is in Kemadruma Yoga as there is no planet on either side of it. The Moon is in the Navamsha of the Sun in Leo which is bad for the health of Donald Trump.

Trump can get into troubles in the year 2026-2027

Donald Trump, born on 14 June 1946 in New York at 10:52 am, has amazing Rajyoga’s in his birth chart . In the Leo ascendant horoscope of Donald Trump, the Yogakaraka Mars placed in the ascendant is involve in a ‘Neech Bhang’ Rajyoga by aspecting the debilitated Moon sitting in the fourth house of property. Rahu sitting in the tenth house of power is conjoined with the ascendant lord the Sun and aspected by the 5th lord Jupiter, is the second big Rajyoga of his horoscope. In Navamsha chart Taurus lagna is rising where Yogakaraka Saturn is in Raja Yoga with lagna lord Venus. The mutual aspect of 2nd and 5th lord Mercury with the 11th lord Jupiter is a good Dhana Yoga in his Navamsha chart.

Chart 2. Birth chart of Donald Trump

On the strength of the above mentioned big Raja Yoga’s and Dhana Yoga’s , Trump, born in a rich family, after getting success in property, luxury, entertainment industry, created a history by winning the presidential elections of 2016 and then in 2024. At present Donald Trump is under an enigmatic Vimshottari Dasha of Jupiter and Anter Dasha of Venus from October 2024 to June 2027 which will make him creating troubles for many countries with the arrogance, vulgarity and unconventional decisions in his behavior and politics. Venus is Vargottama but it is in her enemy sign in Cancer and falls in the 12th house along with the 6th (diseses and disputes) and 7th (killer) house a Maraka. This Anter Dasha of Venus till June 2027 is also dangerous for Donald Trump’s health and security. It will not allow him to complete his tenure.

The configuration of planets in the Hindu New Year horoscope (Pisces New Moon) of the 2026 and 2027 for the USA are also not good.

Chart 3. Hindu New Year Horoscope of USA 2026

In the Hindu New year chart of 2026 (chart 3) the King of the New Year is Jupiter which is the lord of the 3rd and 6th houses. The lagna lord Venus falls in the 6th house along with the luminaries and also 4th lord Saturn. The aspect of Saturn on the 8th house and the aspect of Mars on the 8th is dangerous for the health of the ruler.

Chart 4. Hindu New Year Horoscope of USA 2027

The Hindu New Year horoscope of 2027 for USA (chart 4) is even more dangerous as the luminaries are placed in the 7th house of war and violence. The King of the New year is Mercury which is good in Rashi chart but afflicted by malefic planets in Navamsha, Dashamasha and Shastiamsha. The year 2027 will be difficult for USA economy and there could be some civil unrest also due to the bad policies of Republican government.

As per the study of the oath taking chart of Donald Trump (chart 1) it appears that he may have to roll back many of his important policy decisions due to the pressure from civil society, Federal courts, opposition parties and independent media in the country. Donald Trump will also face many controversies, health issues and danger to his security during 2026-27 which will not allow him to complete his tenure.

Solar Ingress of Libra 2024 – What it foretells ?

October 15, 2024 By Sachin Malhotra

When the Sun enters the next zodiac sign after thirty days, the horoscope formed at that time is called the Sankranti horoscope of that particular zodiac sign. For example, this year, the Sun will enter Libra on the October 17th, 2024 at 7:42 am Indian Standard time, then at that time Libra ascendant will be rising and the Moon will be located in Pisces. In this horoscope of Tula Sankranti, the inauspicious position of Saturn and Mars sitting in the triangle houses from the Sun, the planet of political power, sitting in the ascendant, is an astrological indication of some big political and religious disputes arising in the country in the next 30 days. But since at the time of Sankranti the day lord is Jupiter, ruled by Thursday, the full moon (Purnima) is present , auspicious constellation Revati, the yoga of Harshan and Bava Karan is present so the government can take some good steps to give relief to the people from inflation during the festival season in the country.

Chart 1. Horoscope of Sun’s Enter into Libra

With the entry of Mars in the watery sign Cancer on October 20th , the temperature will fall rapidly and this year cold may come early in the month of November. Since at the time of Sankranti, the watery planets Venus and Jupiter are in opposition with each other. They are in Samasaptak Yog, hence in November this year, the weather in Delhi-NCR will be somewhat clear as compared to the previous years and air pollution will be somewhat less. But in the Solar Ingress Horoscope , the tenth lord (Central Government) is conjoined with the natural malefic planet Rahu, and is stuck in the sixth house of controversy, so due to this reason, the surprising victory of BJP in the recently held Haryana assembly elections, which shattered all the predictions of exit polls, can now reach the doors of the Supreme Court regarding the counting of votes. The deadlock will be at its peak between the ruling party and the opposition.

Even before the Jharkhand and Maharashtra assembly elections to be held in the month of November, the leaders of the main opposition India Alliance parties Congress, NCP, Jharkhand Mukti Morcha and Shiv Sena Uddhav Thackeray group can once again approach the Supreme Court regarding 100% counting of all the VV Pad slips in the counting of votes. In the Tula Samkranti horoscope , the lord of the seventh house of the opposition party is Mars, which is situated in the ninth house of the country’s Supreme Court, due to which there is a strong possibility that many parties of the India Alliance will now move to the Supreme Court regarding the counting of votes.

Interestingly Supreme Court of India has rejected the demand for the counting of 100% of VV Pad slip in the last week of April this year only.

Disputes related to counting of votes in elections can be taken to the Supreme Court, but since the lord of the seventh house Mars, is in its enemy sign Gemini, due to this reason the opposition parties may get some disappointment in this matter from the apex court.

Israel’s attacks against Hezbollah will intensify

Israel - Iran tensions astrology forecast

In the Surya Sankranti horoscope, the Sun will be in conjunction with Mercury in Libra. The foundation horoscope of Israel (14 May 1948, Tel Aviv at 4 pm) is of Virgo ascendant in which the inauspicious Vimshottari Dasha of Rahu-Rahu-Ketu is running from 12th of September to 9th of November this year. Rahu is in the eighth house of sorrow and national mourning in Israel’s horoscope and is suffering from the tenth aspect of the natural malefic planet Saturn. Pratyantar Dasha lord Ketu is sitting in the 2nd house but is in an inauspicious position in the eighth house in Navamsha chart (D-9). In such a situation, Israel’s military action against Hezbollah in Lebanon may intensify by 9th of November and once again a major attack from Iran can also take place on Israel. This unrest in the Middle East may lead to a rise in the price of crude oil and a fall in the stock market.
