Saturn Transit from Dhanishta Nakshatra and Ukraine-Russia Conflict

January 22, 2022 By Sachin Malhotra

As the concern  growing that the Russia can invade Ukraine any time during 2022 we are doing an astrological analysis of the foundation charts of both countries in this post . Russia and Ukraine shared hundreds of years cultural, linguistic and ethnic relationship. Ukraine became independent after the fall of ‘Soviet Union in 1991’. In the foundation horoscope of Ukraine Moon is in ‘Dhanishta’ Nakshtra ruled by Mars. Now when Saturn is going to enter into ‘Dhanishta Nakshtra’ in transit in the third week of February 2022 right over the Janma nakshtra of Ukraine there is surely an astrological indication for some serious border clashes and a possible territorial war in this region. USA and European Union has both warned Russia for dangerous consequences in case of  Ukrainien invasion.  The transiting Saturn will stay for a longer period in ‘Dhanishta’ as it will retrograde in this Nakshatra in the first week of June and will keep hovering over this Nakshatra throughout year 2022. It is only in the third week of March 2023 when Saturn will move into ‘Shatabhisha’ Nakshatra after leaving ‘Dhanishta’ which is the Janma Nakshatra of Ukraine. So astrologically the year 2022  is very difficult for Ukraine in terms of  its national security and also for her economy.

astrological predictions about Ukraine-Russia Conflict

horoscope of Ukraine President

The Taurus lagna birth chart given above is of current Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky who prior to entering into politics was a very popular actor, director and comedian. His TV series ‘Servant of the People’ was aired during 2015 to 2019 in which he played the role of Ukraine’s President. This TV show made him the most famous personality in Ukraine which ultimately made him won Presidential election in April  2019 defeting then president Petro Poroshenko.

In the horoscope of Zelensky there are two beautiful Rashi Parivartan Yoga’s. The 2nd lord Mercury and 8th lord Jupiter are in exchange of signs. Then 4th lord Sun and 9th lord are also in exchange of houses which gives strength to this chart.

In the Taurus lagna horoscope of Zelensky the lagna lord Venus is in the 9th house of luck along with 4th lord Sun. These two planets are in mutual aspect with 7th lord Mars making a Raja Yoga. He had entered the entertainment world very early at the age of 17 during his Venus maha dasha (July 1992 to July 2012) and by 2003 he was into TV shows production. Sun maha dasha (July 2012 to July 2018) made him the most famous actor of Ukraine. Sun is exalted in the Navamsha chart and is along with 9th lord Venus.  It is in Sagittarius sign in Dashamsha chart which is given below. So Sun is very strong in the horoscope of Zelensky.

It was the maha dasha of Moon gave him immense popularity and political power to rule the country. Moon is the 3rd lord in its own sign and is involve with debilitated Mars in birth chart. A debilitated planet in the 3rd house gives exceptions results. In Navamsha Moon is in the sign of Saturn  getting the aspect of Saturn which makes Zelensky a very honest and committed political person. But Moon here is a functional malefic for his Taurus lagan chart which we should not forget.

He is into a difficult period of Moon-Jupiter at present. Jupiter as the lord of 8th house is placed in the 2nd house a ‘Mraka Bhava’. The anter dasha of a functional malefic in the maha dasha of another functional malefic is not considered good as per ‘Laghu Parashari’. This Moon-Jupiter period is from June 2021 to October 2022. The the sub period of Saturn from October 2022 to May 2024 can also give him difficulties as Saturn is in its enemy sign Leo in birth chart and in Dashamsha it is in the 12th house. Noticeable point here is that his maha dasha lord Moon is debilitated in Dashamsha chart.

In transit Saturn is already hovering on his natal Sun which is in Capricorn Rashi right in the 7th house from his natal Moon. This indicate a war like situation and then Saturn’s transit from Aquarius will also be very difficult for him as it will be in the 8th house from his natal Moon. So President of Ukraine Mr. Zelensky is under a difficult dasha period throughout year 2022.

Foundation horoscope of Ukraine

Foundation horoscope of Ukraine

In year 1990 and 1991 Ukraine didn’t observe any Day Light Saving as it was under the process of getting separated from the former Soviet Union. You can scroll down the link https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Daylight_saving_time_by_country  
and see the day light saving for Ukraine in the list which specifically mentions that it was observed during 1981 to 1989 and then from 1992 only. During the year 1990 to 1991 there was no daylight saving observed in Ukraine so at the time of her independence on 24 August 1991  the time zone was 2 hours ahead of GMT. The Jagannath Hora calculation has missed this crucial point and have taken 3 hours ahead of GMT as time zone taking 1 hours of daylight saving into consideration.

At the time of Ukraine’s independence Capricorn lagan was rising with Moon and Saturn in conjunction. The lagan lord Saturn is in conjunction with ‘Maraka’ (7th lord) Moon, which is a ‘Arishta’ Yoga. Since there is no benefic planet in Kendra from lagan and/or Moon so there is no proper ‘Arishta Bhanga’ i.e. cancelation of Arishta Yoga. Then we have a cluster of planets Sun, Venus, Jupiter and Mercury in the 8th house from lagan and Moon both which is not very helpful. Ukraine had to struggle economically in her balance of Mars dasha and the beginning of Rahu maha dasha. From 1991 to 1999 till after 8 year of her independence  Ukraine was under severe economic crisis.  But the maha dasha of Rahu which is in the  is in the 12th house of foreign aid getting the aspect of 11th lord Mars and 12th lord Jupiter made them accept help of western European countries.
Afflicted Moon makes Ukraine a poor country 

After her independence Ukraine declared itself a neutral state forming partnership with both Russia and NATO in 1994. Ukraine is the second largest country in Europe after Russia. It has maintained the 3rd largest military in Europe after Russia and France. Having a very fertile farmlands Ukraine is one of the largest exporter  of food grains in the world but it don’t have good infrastructure to established many heavy industries and IT companies.

Moon is afflicted by retrograde Saturn in both Rashi and Navamsha chart which made Ukraine one of the most poorest country in her neighbourhood in Europe and at present it is a ‘developing nation’ ranking 74th in the Human Development Index.

As per Jaimini system the Karakamsha of Ukraine is Virgo where a malefic planet Mars is placed. The 4th house from Karakamsha has Rahu which is an inauspicious Jaimini Yoga. The 12th house from Karakamsha has as many as 4 planets and two other planets (Moon and Saturn) influence them by Jaimini aspects. So the major planetary concentration on the 12th house from Karakamsha has kept Ukraine under poverty and made them suffer severe corruption.

Russia-Ukraine Crisis and Saturn transit from Dhanishta Nakshatra 

Jupiter maha dasha started in August 2013 in the foundation horoscope of Ukraine. Jupiter is a functional malefic for Capricorn lagna chart. Jupiter as the 3rd lord in the 8th house has to give Ukraine tensions at her borders as the 3rd house is the house of border conflicts.

In year 2013, then President Viktor Yanukovych decided to suspend ‘Ukraine -European Union Association Agreement’ and seek closer economic ties with Russia. This led to a major civil unrest and public protests known as ‘Ukrainian Revolution 2014’ which overthrew the government of Yanukovych which ignited Russian president Vladimir Putin. This was the period of Jupiter-Jupiter (August 2013 to September 2015) in the foundation horoscope of Ukraine at that time. Jupiter as the lord of 3rd (border clashes) and 12th (foreign invasion) houses in conjunction with 6th (strife and public protests) and 9th lord (foreign treaty) Mercury in the birth chart amply explain this event. In Navamsha Jupiter is the lord of 9th and 12th houses in conjunction with 3rd and 6th houses lord Mercury is getting the aspect of lagan and 8th lord Mars which later resulted into a war with Russia when at the order of Putin the Russian troops invaded the eastern parts of Ukraine and annexed Crimea formally on the 18th of March 2014.

Now the period of Jupiter-Venus is running from 14 June 2021 to 13 February 2024. Jupiter and Venus both are combust with 8th lord Sun and they are in the 8th house from both lagan and Moon which is inauspicious. In transit the Aquarius sign gets only 20 points in ‘Sarvashtaka Varga’ and in the Bhinnashataka Varga of Saturn there are only 2 points which are not very good. So dasha of Jupiter-Venus and transit of Saturn from Aquarius both are not much favourable for Ukraine in year 2022 and also in 2023.

Foundation Horoscope of Russia

12 June 1990, 13:45 hours at Moscow (37 E 36’, 55 N 45’) with balance of 8 years 8 months 1 days of Moon dasha.

Foundation horoscope of Russia

foundation horoscope of Russia

In the Virgo lagna horoscope of Russia Moon is in Shravan Nakshatra over which the Saturn has been hovering throughout year 2021. Russia has slowly build-up a strength of 100 thousands solders at its border with Ukraine. Russia is under maha dasha of Rahu and anter dasha of Moon from July 2021 to January 2023. Then  anter dasha of Mars will follow which is in the 7th house of its foundation chart and is getting the 3rd aspect of 6th lord Saturn. So the year 2023 will be extremely difficult  for Russia as it will suffer from terrorist attacks and international sensations. There is a very high possibility that Russia may get isolated diplomatically by European Union and USA in year 2023. In year 2022 during Rahu-Moon dasha period Russia can make the mistake of attacking Ukraine’s borders at some places which will prove eventually costly to him later on. Moon is the lord of 11th house in the 5th which making Russia very ambitious during its sub period. But later the ‘Dasha Chiddra’ of Rahu-Mars will make Russia suffer in 2024 from international sanctions and trade war crisis.
