If the US Supreme Court Strikes Down Global Tariffs — An Astrological & Geopolitical Turning Point
What Trump May Do Next, and Why January–March 2026 Is Explosive
Days after Donald Trump publicly claimed it would be “impossible” for the United States to return money already collected via tariffs, a senior aide revealed the administration’s likely response if the US Supreme Court strikes down the tariff regime imposed under the International Emergency Economic Powers Act (IEEPA).
The ruling could arrive as early as Tuesday, placing the White House, global markets, and international relations on a knife-edge.
India is among the most affected—50% tariffs in total, with:
-
25% under Trump’s “Liberation Day” reciprocal tariffs, and
-
25% tied to New Delhi’s purchase of Russian oil.
What follows is not merely a legal or economic question. Astrologically, this window is primed for reversal, escalation, and humiliation on the global stage.
Astrological Trigger #1: Rahu Afflicted (21–27 January 2026) — “The Table-Turner”
In classical Jyotish, Rahu is the nectar-giving planet—it amplifies ambition, shortcuts, and sudden gains. When afflicted, Rahu flips outcomes upside down.
-
21–27 January 2026: Rahu comes under severe affliction.
-
This is the exact window in which unexpected reversals, legal shocks, and loss of narrative control occur.
-
Decisions taken with overconfidence are undone suddenly, often through courts, allies, or public backlash.
Interpretation:
If the Supreme Court strikes down tariffs in this window, the response is unlikely to be calm compliance. Expect defiance, narrative warfare, and attempts to bypass or politically neutralize the ruling—all classic Rahu reactions under stress.
Astrological Trigger #2: Lunation of 19 January 2026 — The Hidden War Zone
The 19 January 2026 Lunation chart is exceptionally volatile:

-
Five planets cluster in the 6th house (conflict, litigation, enemies) for Trump and the US.
-
The same cluster falls in the 12th house of the US Foundation Chart from Moon also (losses, isolation, hidden enemies, international backlash).
Meaning:
Legal battles escalate into international confrontations, financial losses, and reputational damage. Court rulings do not end disputes—they multiply them.
Astrological Trigger #3: 20–27 January 2026 — The Detonation Zone
From 20 to 27 January 2026, planetary positions turn outright explosive:
The chart of the 21st Jan. 2026 is below. This chart is self explanatory See the Rashi and the Navamsha chart explosive for the whole world

-
Aggressive malefic activation
-
Heightened Mars influence
-
Decisions taken in anger or panic
This is the phase where tariff wars risk mutating into machine wars—sanctions, cyber pressure, military posturing, and alliance fractures.
Astrological Trigger #4: February–March 2026 — Eclipses, Rahu, and the Fall Axis
The crisis does not end in January.
Rahu Afflictions Continue
-
February 2026: ~20 days of Rahu affliction
-
March 2026: ~18 days of Rahu affliction
Two Major Eclipses
-
17 February 2026

-
3 March 2026

These eclipses strike the 1/7 axis (Self vs World) of the Leo Ascendant shared by Trump and the US Foundation Chart.
Mars–Saturn–Sun–Mercury in the 8th House: Crisis of Authority
During the eclipse-driven crisis cycle:
-
Mars, Saturn, Sun, and Mercury activate the 8th house for both Donald Trump and the US Foundation Chart, a house that governs sudden downfall, disgrace, exposure of secrets, irreversible damage, and forced transformation.
-
The most explosive phase lies between 2 April and 12 May 2026, when Mars enters Pisces and joins Saturn, intensifying destruction-oriented energies.
-
The situation peaks when Saturn, Mars, and Mercury conjoin at 13 degrees, a highly sensitive and volatile degree, capable of igniting legal, political, military, and economic flashpoints simultaneously.

At the same time:
-
Donald Trump operates under Jupiter–Venus Dasha, a Maraka-linked period under severe affliction, indicating loss of protection, reversal of fortune, and damage to authority.
-
The United States runs Rahu–Saturn Dasha, historically associated with institutional breakdowns, judicial confrontations, international humiliation, and systemic stress.
-
Transit Rahu over the US natal Moon in Aquarius further destabilizes public sentiment, global alliances, diplomatic coherence, and mass psychology.
-
Additionally, Rahu remains afflicted in March 2026 for a full 18 days — from mid-March till 31 March 2026, not merely till the 27th, as clearly documented in your earlier articles. This extended affliction bridges directly into the April–May 2026 Mars–Saturn conjunction, making the crisis continuous rather than episodic.
Corridor:
-
Mars, Saturn, Sun, and Mercury activate the 8th house for both Trump and the US
-
The 8th house governs sudden downfall, disgrace, secrets exposed, and irreversible damage
What Trump Is Likely to Do If Tariffs Are Struck Down
Astrologically and politically, expect a three-step reaction:
-
Defiance & Reframing
-
Public rejection of the ruling’s legitimacy
-
Framing the Court as anti-national or obstructive
-
-
Escalation via Alternative Levers
-
New emergency instruments
-
Pressure through security, currency, or technology restrictions
-
-
International Fallout
-
Strained ties with India, Europe, and energy partners
-
Accelerated move from trade wars to strategic confrontation
-
Conclusion: A Short Legal Ruling, a Long Global Shock
What appears to be a tariff legality issue is, astrologically, a pivot of global power dynamics.
Between 19 January and 27 March 2026, the cosmos signals:
-
Reversals, humiliation, and escalation
-
Markets diving, gold rising
-
Trade wars mutating into machine wars
This is not a negotiable phase—it is an inevitable correction cycle.
When Rahu is afflicted, Saturn judges, and eclipses darken the axis of power, even the mightiest are forced to bow.
