“Triple Threat Rising: Astrological Clues to India’s Strategic Struggles Ahead”
As of May 3, 2025, tensions between India and Pakistan have escalated significantly following the April 22 terrorist attack in Pahalgam, Kashmir, which resulted in the deaths of 26 Indian tourists. India holds Pakistan responsible for the attack, a claim that Islamabad denies. In response, India has implemented several measures, including banning imports from Pakistan, prohibiting Pakistani ships from docking at Indian ports, and suspending the Indus Waters Treaty.
Pakistan has responded by test-firing the Abdali surface-to-surface ballistic missile, signalling its military readiness amid the heightened tensions. Both nations have expelled each other’s diplomats, and there have been reports of cross-border firing along the Line of Control (LoC).
China’s Position:
China has expressed support for Pakistan, with Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesperson Guo Jiankun stating that Beijing firmly opposes all forms of terrorism. However, China’s actions have largely been limited to diplomatic statements, and there is no indication of direct military involvement.
Bangladesh’s Position:
A retired Bangladeshi military officer, Major General (Retd) ALM Fazlur Rahman, suggested that Bangladesh should consider occupying India’s north eastern region if Delhi goes to war with Islamabad. However, this statement was made in a personal capacity and does not reflect the official stance of the Bangladeshi government.
The international community, including the United Nations, has urged both India and Pakistan to exercise maximum restraint and resolve their differences through dialogue
I have published several articles warning that India would face heightened terrorism and border clashes during two critical windows: April 21–26 and May 4–10, 2025. These predictions have already proven accurate. The core astrological cause is the affliction to Rahu, a malefic node known for creating venomous, disruptive events — much like a snake bite when afflicted.
This phase of turbulence is not transient. The upcoming Mars Mahadasha from September 9, 2025, will extend tensions. Prime Minister Narendra Modi, who is also under Mars Mahadasha, possesses the astrological strength to retaliate decisively — thanks to the Chandra–Mangal Yoga both from the Lagna and from the natal Moon in Scorpio. The role of transiting Mars, especially when it enters Neecha Bhanga Yoga and Scorpio Navamsha, will be pivotal. Unfortunately after Sept. 2025 there is no smooth Sailing for N Modi as per the Progression chart by Manu Smriti. It indicates the most challenging time for him in his life till Sept. 2026. In worst conditions he may have to step down. God Bless him. If he is able to manage this time frame then he will become a Lion.
It seems that India worst time also starts from Sept. 2025 due to Mars dasha in operation and now Chidra Dasha of Moon-Sun till 9th Sept. 2025
Now, a strategic realignment is underway: China, Bangladesh, and Pakistan are quietly consolidating against India in anticipation of military escalation.
