Trump’s Tariff Turbulence Amid Durbhiksha Yoga: Escalation, Crisis, and Relief Windows

By Jyotish Acharya Anil Aggarwala

Trump’s “Tariff Bombs” in Sept–Oct 2025

The second Trump administration has moved aggressively on tariffs, particularly against India. In August 2025, a punitive 50% duty was slapped on Indian goods (25% “reciprocal tariff” + 25% “secondary tariff”), aimed at New Delhi’s Russian oil imports. This escalation takes effect fully from September 17, 2025, sparking a trade crisis between Washington and New Delhi.

At the same time, U.S. courts have pushed back—an appeals court ruled many tariffs illegal, with enforcement slated to lapse by mid-October 2025 unless the Supreme Court intervenes. Trump has already filed for a fast-track appeal, hoping to preserve his aggressive trade stance.

Thus, instead of a U-turn, Trump is doubling down—escalating tariff wars even while battling legal challenges.

The Astrological Lens: Durbhiksha Yoga in Action

According to Jyotish, the ongoing Durbhiksha Yoga (13 July–28 Nov 2025) is one of the harshest planetary signatures for global financial strain. This period is characterized by:

• Saturn Retrograde in Pisces (karma and dissolution), creating stagnation, scarcity, and uncertainty.

• Jupiter in accelerated motion, amplifying volatility in trade and markets.

• Mars–Ketu and Mars–Saturn conflicts, igniting both physical wars and trade wars.

• Trio Eclipses (Sept 2025–March 2026) activating 1/7 axes of the U.S., Trump, and world leaders—turning the balance of power upside down.

The U.S.–India tariff conflict reflects exactly this alignment: disruption in trade, breakdown of established alliances, and escalation instead of resolution.

Saturn’s Role: Retrogression and Relief

The Durbhiksha phase until 28 Nov 2025 signals continued upheaval, with little chance of reversal. However, some relief is expected once Saturn turns direct on 28 Nov 2025—global markets and diplomatic tensions may see a temporary cooling off.

But astrology reminds us that cycles repeat:

• Saturn Retrogrades again on 27 July 2026 (01:25 AM IST)

• Saturn becomes Direct on 11 Dec 2026 (05:00 AM IST)

• Total Retrograde Period: 138 days

This 2026 retrograde will reopen unresolved crises, suggesting that whatever patchwork “relief” comes in early 2026 is temporary. The underlying conflicts—trade wars, sanctions, and geopolitical rivalries—will resurface with even greater intensity.

Extending into 2027: Saturn’s Return to Pisces

The turbulence does not end in 2026. Saturn re-enters Pisces in retrograde motion on 20 October 2027, after an earlier entry into Aries. This retrograde cycle continues until 24 December 2027, when Saturn finally becomes direct in Pisces again.

This marks another significant karmic window, demanding the world—and leaders in particular—to confront unresolved issues. It will especially test matters of spiritual integrity, emotional boundaries, and collective accountability. The aftershocks of tariff wars, trade disruptions, and geopolitical realignments seeded during the 2025–26 Durbhiksha Yoga will resurface, forcing karmic closure.

Conclusion: Between Bombs and Balance

Trump’s tariff policy in Sept–Oct 2025 is not a U-turn but a hard escalation. The U.S. legal system may clip his wings temporarily, yet astrologically the Durbhiksha Yoga guarantees instability until at least late November.

• Sept–Nov 2025: Peak of tariff wars, legal clashes, and trade shocks.

• Dec 2025–July 2026: Relative relief as Saturn moves direct, offering room for negotiations.

• July–Dec 2026: Saturn retrograde revives old disputes, delays, and fresh tensions.

• Oct–Dec 2027: Saturn’s return to Pisces forces karmic reckoning and resolution, extending the turbulence into a broader spiritual and political crisis.

This cycle reinforces the principle that economic wars are only the prelude to larger geopolitical confrontations, as both planets and policies move in lockstep toward global transformation.
