Manisa ji, I would also like you to elaborate on Pakistan and of course the fate of Imran Khan.
I would like you to elaborate about the fate of the minorities in Bangladesh.
Hi, I'm Pritika Rao. Welcome to the channel that trended astrology podcasts in India.
Today we're going to be talking about India and its neighbors and their fate for 2026
astrologically, especially Pakistan and Imran Khan, Bangladesh and China.
And for that we have with us astrologer Manisa Ahuja, who is KN Rao's student.
And most of her predictions made so far on this channel have come absolutely true.
I'm keen to know if 2026 is going to bring in success or challenges for the country.
Welcome Manisa ji on my podcast once again.
Thank you, Pritika. Always a pleasure to be with you.
Today I want to begin with a bit of a technical question.
What are you going to be seeing while predicting for India for 2026?
Is it going to be the Chaitra Shukla Pratipada horoscope casted for India for 2026?
Or is it going to be the independence horoscope of India,
considering that India is going through its Mars dasha?
So what is it that you're going to be considering?
Yes. So see, when we look at the chart of a country, and as you know,
that what we are going to discuss, this comes under Mundane Astrology or Medhini Jyotish.
When we look at the horoscopes of countries, there are some tools that we have with us.
So one such tool for looking at that particular year
for the country is the Chaitra Shukla Pratipada chart.
Now what is the Chaitra Shukla Pratipada chart?
This is actually the first Navratra of the month of Chaitra.
And we take the chart, which is the exact conjunction of Amavasya,
which is that the sun and the moon should come at the exact degree.
That conjunction forms the Chaitra Shukla Pratipada chart.
As you're aware, immediately after the Amavasya, the first Tithi,
which is the Pratipada of the month of Chaitra, the Shukla Pratipada comes into action.
And that is the day when we worship the Goddess as well.
That for us is the start of the Hindu New Year.
And this is Vikram Samvat 2083.
So this is the chart that we make to understand how the year
would go for that particular country.
We also look at Varshphal for that particular country,
which is basically a chart of progression.
So if we look at the Chaitra Shukla Pratipada chart for this year,
it comes to 19th March 2026, 6.52, 48 seconds, New Delhi.
This is a Pisces rising chart with four planets in the lagna,
moon, sun, Saturn and Venus.
Venus exalted in Pisces as the eighth lord.
Jupiter in square in the fourth house,
aspecting the 10th house as the 10th lord.
And Mars, Rahu and retrograde Mercury in the 12th house,
with of course, Ketu in the sixth.
Now, how do we see this year going forth?
See, what is interesting in this particular chart,
the highlights of this particular chart,
Mars and Saturn are both aspecting the third house, which is showing borders,
and the seventh house, which is the house which shows
when one country's army takes action against another.
So Mars and Saturn are aspecting,
there's a dual aspect of Mars and Saturn on both the seventh house and the third house.
So remember that Operation Sindoor was not just a one-off or a flash in the pan.
This will have further consequences
because with this chart, one can very clearly see that borders will be porous,
that neighboring countries will sort of get together, collude conspiratorially,
and even get international support to destabilize India
and to destabilize the central government.
That is something one can very clearly see from this chart.
Even the opposition, the seventh house also is the opposition.
The opposition will also leave no stone unturned to hurl accusations or further
trouble the government at the center or destabilize it, but unsuccessfully so.
Why?
Because Jupiter as the 10th lord in the fourth house
will thwart all such efforts that the opposition might dream of.
These are very two clear highlights.
But when I talk of Operation Sindoor, it is specifically referring to Pakistan.
But let me also tell you that when one studies the chart of Bangladesh,
then from now till almost mid-year 2027,
even Bangladesh is not going to let us live in peace
because Bangladesh under the Yunus Muhammad government is further going to create mayhem.
And there seems to be further fierce, violent, volatile actions
against the minority Hindu community in Bangladesh.
After June 2027, almost for an arc of two years from June 27 to June 29,
what Bangladesh is doing right now will make the rising economy of Bangladesh,
which was rising under Sheikh Hasina.
That's what we read.
That is what news tells us.
Now there will be a dip that will come through from June 2027 onwards.
Bangladesh is also a security risk for India.
So the neighboring countries are showing troubles.
So we have troubles definitely from Pakistan and definitely from Bangladesh.
And as I have said, third and seventh, both are coming under malefic influence.
And therefore, these do not augur well for the security of the country.
But because India is running the Dasha of Mars,
and Mars, if you look at the Indian independence chart as well in the second house,
in this particular CSP chart as the second and the ninth Lord in the 12th house,
India will be at her aggressive best, or should I say, assertive best.
And India will now have the potential to not just diplomatically sort out matters,
but take matters in her own hand with military making aggressive inroads into such enemy states.
That is something that one can very clearly see from these charts.
Now, the ninth Lord in the 12th house with retrograde Mars and Rahu.
Remember that retrograde Mars is vargottam here.
Retrograde Mars as the fourth Lord and the seventh Lord is vargottam
in the 12th house with Mars and is conjunct with Rahu.
So there seems to be some sort of a, how should I, if I were to word it,
I'd say Jupiter's aspect on the 12th house.
Jupiter's ninth aspect as the Lagna Lord and as the 10th Lord.
The ninth aspect on this 12th house will make sure that this doesn't turn into a full-fledged war.
Of course, there will be inroads that the military will make into the enemy state
and soldiers will fight.
But it will not turn into a full-fledged war for sure because of the grace of Jupiter.
That is something that one can see here.
Also because Rahu's involvement is coming in this entire cluster in the 12th,
we could get help from Middle Eastern countries as well.
So Saudi Arabia seems to be supporting us and there is some trade alignment as well
that will come through with those countries, which is very clear from this chart.
What are the other highlights of this chart?
If you look at the 3rd Lord, the 3rd Lord here, Venus is also the 8th Lord.
Venus is exalted as the 8th Lord.
Now, 8th Lord Venus and Lagna Lord Jupiter, both are in square to each other
and both are in square to each other in the Navamsa as well.
Now, when we look at it, we might just say,
These are benefic planets squaring each other is a good sign.
But no, Jupiter and Venus also cause bloodshed.
And here as the Lagna and the 8th Lord in square and the promise repeating itself,
the pattern repeating itself in Navamsa, this is a combination of bloodshed as well.
Now, is it a combination of bloodshed for the entire year or what is it that it is throwing up?
How is the promise sort of fructifying itself in terms of timeframes?
Let's look at those.
Now, a very interesting cluster is going to come up in Aquarius from the 23rd of February.
Mars is going to join retrograde Mercury, Venus, Sun and Rahu in Aquarius on the 23rd of February.
And that is going to make it into a five cluster combination in the sign of Aquarius.
Now, this is going to happen from the 23rd of February.
From Aquarius, Mars is going to aspect the 7th house of the CSP chart
and Saturn will also aspect the 7th from the CSP chart.
So, from 23rd of February till the 10th of May, even though this five combination,
this five cluster combination will sort of not continue till the 10th of May,
but because of certain combinations because Mars will move into the sign of Pisces in early April.
So, I'm combining the two timeframes.
So, from 23rd of February till 10th of May, expect troubles on the borders.
India will fight the enemy states.
That seems to be like a very clear combination coming through 23rd of February to 10th of May.
Even after that, it's not like the troubles are completely disappearing or evaporating
because Mars in Aries as well.
If you look at the chart of India, then from Aries, Mars will aspect the Janma Rashi,
which is the moon sign of the Indian independence chart, which is Cancer.
So, if you look at this arc, so troubles are brewing and then brimming.
So, the troubles are brewing from 23rd February, but they continue to brim till almost
August and early September.
So, this is going to be a slightly aggressive, assertive phase for India.
Be very clear about that because from 23rd February, when Mars enters Aquarius,
when Mars crosses Rahu in natal India's Taurus, then almost till early September.
So, late February till early September, we have troubles and they seem to be coming up on the
Here, some judicial pronouncement or a judicial verdict can also happen, which can hurt the
sentiment of communities and therefore they can be protests.
That too can be seen.
In Aquarius, Mars comes to close degrees with Rahu.
Transiting Mars comes to very close degrees with transiting Rahu from the 10th to the 20th of March.
Now, that combination will have to be seen.
Why? Because when this combination picks up from 23rd February, there is a solar eclipse.
From 23rd February, when Mars enters Aquarius and this five cluster combination picks up,
then immediately after that, on the 3rd of March, there is a total lunar eclipse.
Now, it is visible in parts of India, in Assam, in Maharashtra and some other parts.
This total lunar eclipse, which will involve these planets and Moon is also going to
join in.
This axis of Leo and Aquarius will get majorly troubled.
Leo-Aquarius, if you look at India's independence chart, is the 410 axis.
And from there, one knows that the central government too will face some very daunting
challenges because the seat of power is getting troubled a bit with such a heavy cluster coming
through.
In India's chart, the Gemini dashas of Aquarius and Sagittarius are playing through.
And therefore, this cluster in Aquarius is not just any cluster for us.
It will have its effects.
If you look at the independence chart of India, we are running the dasha of Mars-Rahu.
And Mars, when it comes over natal Rahu, this dasha and this combination, which comes through
from 20th June onwards till the 1st week of August, this is showing trouble.
20th June till the 1st week of August.
You can say 20th June till almost 10th August.
And within this, from 20th to 30th June, the degrees of Mars will be exactly the degrees
that Rahu, that natal Rahu shares.
Natal Rahu is at 5 degree 44 minutes in Kritika and Mars will cover these degrees between
20th to 30th June.
And therefore, this phase, which is 20th June till 10th August, is showing a very aggressive,
incendiary, volatile stance.
Be very clear on that.
Now, the good thing is, I said earlier, Jupiter as the Lagna Lord in square, in a Kendra.
It is said that Jupiter in a Kendra and as a Kendra, of course, there can be a Kendra
to this Jupiter.
But still, Jupiter aspecting the 10th house as the 10th Lord will augur well for the economy.
So, that's a good point.
And in spite of the fact that the ruling government will face some very daunting challenges
and the centre will be troubled with the kind of conspiratorial tones.
Why am I saying this?
Because the centre is now going to fight battles across all fronts.
Now, it's surrounded by enemies and then there are internal enemies as well.
Then there are enemies within who will collude with powers outside to destabilise.
But because of this Jupiter in Kendra, in the fourth house, those overtures will be
unsuccessful and will bite the dust.
Be very clear on that.
If you look at India's chart, the Independence Horoscope, we know, and I have shared it
earlier as well on your channel as well, that Jupiter is in fast forward motion and will
cover all the 10 signs in a shorter time span.
Usually, it takes 12 years to do so.
But between 2025 and 2032, Jupiter is in Atichari mode.
Jupiter is said to be Atichari even when the war of Mahabharata had happened.
And Jupiter is Atichari now.
Justice will be delivered in fast forward motion.
Jupiter is moving into the sign of Cancer on the 2nd of June, 2026.
For India's independent chart, which is a Taurus Lagna rising, Jupiter is the 8th Lord.
Sagittarius falls in the 8th Bhava of this particular chart.
Jupiter as the 8th Lord will transit the 3rd house, which also houses India's Moon and
India's Lagna Lord.
8th Lord Jupiter, which is also the 11th Lord in this case, transiting over natal 3rd Lord,
Lagna Lord, and of course, the 9th and the 10th Lord.
This will happen between 2nd of June, 2026 till 31st of October, 2026.
Now, this too is showing troubles with neighboring countries with so much happening in the 3rd
house and Jupiter as the 8th Lord transiting over that 3rd house.
So, this needs to be looked at very, very carefully.
Another trend that I see is Jupiter as the 8th Lord transiting in the 4th house of India's
independence chart.
There is another important highlight that I see in this chart.
See, Mars is going to move into Leo from the 10th of November, 2026.
Mars will be in Leo.
It will go in direct motion, in retrograde motion.
It is going to be there for a long arc.
Normally, Mars spends around 40 to 45 days in a particular sign.
This time from 10th November, 2026, it will remain in the sign of Leo till 10th March,
2027 in forward and backward motion.
Mars in Leo will aspect the 7th house of India's chart, which is housing Ketu.
This period, which is 10th November, 2026 to 10th March, 2027, is again showing infighting
within the enemies inside and the enemies outside.
It is showing infighting.
This Mars will come very close to almost similar degrees of Saturn between 15th December, 2026
to 25th December, 2026.
Note that Saturn is in Pisces.
Mars from Leo will give an 8th aspect to Pisces and this combination will continue for not one,
two or three months, but from 10th November to 10th March, 10th November, 2026 to 10th
March, 2027.
This is a very long frame.
Manisa ji, I would also like you to elaborate Pakistan and of course, the fate of Imran Khan.
So as I said, mid-October, 2026 to December, 2027, there is a lot of infighting in Pakistan
and from there, a trend begins, which is showing an absolute nosedive in terms of economy.
It's already in tatters and this is an irreversible nosedive that is going to start
from now, this period, as I said, mid-October, 2026 till December, 2027.
In my previous predictions, I'd also mentioned about Imran Khan and I have said that troubles
to Imran Khan or anything untoward happening to Imran Khan will coincide with a very troubled
period for Pakistan.
And I've said that almost, I think a year back in your podcast or in some of my podcasts,
I've mentioned this repeatedly, that period will coincide with the ruin of Pakistan.
That can be very clearly seen from this chart.
I've said this previously as well, that if we look at the chart of Imran Khan, then see,
he's going to suffer the fate either of senior Bhutto or junior Bhutto.
Yes, so it's very clear that this is a traumatized future.
But as I've said, anything happening to him will coincide with the collapse or will coincide
with a point in time, which will begin, which will be the beginning of an irreversible
nosedive for Pakistan.
That's very clear.
This is a point given by Sri Aurobindo, that sooner or later, Pakistan will be a country
without boundaries.
That's not any time now, it's much later, but yes, that's a point that is there.
Now, I've mentioned mid-year 26 to December, 2027 as a period of major infighting.
Also remember, and I'm overlapping this arc, juxtaposing it with another timeframe,
that from June 2027 onwards, and if we go, if we take an arc from June 2027 till almost
June 2034, this period is ruinous to the state of Pakistan.
So Bangladesh is going through a lot of turmoil, especially the minorities in Bangladesh are
suffering majorly.
I would like you to elaborate about the fate of the minorities in Bangladesh in 2026 and
2027.
So see, if we look at one of our neighbors, Bangladesh, then for Bangladesh, Saturn's
transit in the ninth house, which is Pisces, because this is a Cancer Lagna chart.
Saturn's Gochar or transit in the ninth house, having the aspect of natal Mars, one knows
that April, if I were to take a large arc, then April 2025 to May end 2027, this is a
period wrought with troubles for the minorities with bloodshed, because ninth is also the
house of Dharma.
Ninth is also the chart where if there's so much of maleficence, then forget about the
secular fabric of that particular country.
They will completely try and wipe out a minority.
There's an absolute genocide if one looks at this chart, which is very clear.
Now, Saturn will continue in this house till 31st May 2027, and one knows that even now
in this current regime under Yunus Muhammad, this is not going to be any better.
Whatever comes in the media, believe me, is only a speck of what is really happening on
ground.
That is very clear in this chart.
And immediately after that, immediately after that, after May 2027, when Saturn moves into
Aries in the 10th house of Bangladesh, as the eighth clod, the economy is going to take
a beating.
And that period or that timeframe will continue for another two years.
So what they're going to do now, they will reap the effects of that later, is very clear
from the chart of Bangladesh.
Even if you look at our other neighbour, Pakistan, if you look at Pakistan, then the
combinations that are coming through from 15th October 2026 till December 2027.
In this particular year, there is so much of internal chaos in Pakistan.
The Baloch army will leave no stone unturned.
There is so much of infighting in Pakistan, so much of bloodshed that they might be aligning
with the US of A, which they will.
Pakistan seems to be positively aligned with the United States of America in this particular
CSP as well.
In this particular year, which is basically, as I said, 1st Navratra, March 2, Navratra
of 2027.
How would you say US support for Pakistan astrologically?
See, US and Pakistan will be positively inclined.
Why am I saying this?
Let's look at a technical point.
When we look at the CSP chart for Pakistan, and we look at the CSP chart for US, and remember
that we can make CSP charts for every country, need not be that whether they celebrate the
1st Navratra or not, but it's a point in arc, a seasonal change, an equinox of sorts.
So a chart can be made at that point when the sun and moon come to an exact conjunction
for any country to understand how that country, what will be in store for that country in
that particular year.
So here's a point.
If you look at US and Pakistan, then there is a strange friendship that will continue
between them.
If you look at this particular year, which is CSP 2026, then the CSP charts, the Navamsas,
Lagna and the Lagna are mutually favorable to each other, which means that these two
countries are positively aligned.
So US under Donald Trump is positively aligned to Pakistan, is very clear from the chart.
Okay, one more thing that I wanted to add, if you look at the CSP chart of India, then
Ketu is in the 6th house.
Ketu in the 6th house leads to very many cases of food poisoning.
This is not about individuals, but there can be mass food poisonings that we need to be
careful of.
So eating outside, just one needs to be careful, that's clear.
There can be some infection that can perpetuate, that's the point.
Can you also give us astrological insights for China, please?
If we look at China, and I have mentioned previously, while we were discussing, I had
mentioned that usually Mars stays for a given period in a particular sign, but from 10th
November to 10th March, 10th November 2026 to 10th March 2027, Mars will be in Leo.
Now, if we look at China's chart, then the Lagna Rising is Capricorn, Saturn is in the
8th house, 8th house is Leo, and Mars will move into this particular house from 10th
November to 10th March.
Even before that, Mars in Cancer will transit over natal Mars for China.
So if we look at troubles picking up, so I will say that when Saturn retrogrades, which
is from 27th July 2026, from this period till almost the 10th of March 2027, this is not
a great period for China and China will further trouble India.
If we look at a finer period within this, almost this nine month period, then that would
be October 2026 till 10th of March 2027.
But remember that there is a combination that China runs, where the Chinese soldiers will
be overpowered.
So if there is any scuffle on the borders with Chinese soldiers, they will be overpowered
and they will be just like pawns who will bite the dust.
It's a combination that is coming through.
But as I said, 10th November to 10th March, if we further that arc or make it a little
broader, then 1st October 2026 till 10th March 2027, not a great period.
So the larger decisions that China makes in that particular period to trouble us on our
borders, those will not be favourable to China because India is now becoming and turning
into a formidable force, which is very clear.
And remember, whatever efforts in terms of trade or tariff that the West is going to
decide upon and India would successfully move on the path to be a superpower, whatever be
that is for India.
The East has to rise and there are no two ways about it.
That's very, very clear.
If we look at China, the dragon, then let me tell you that, and I've previously shared
across channels on your podcast as well, that India will soon take the forte on manufacturing,
which was earlier with China.
So that is very clear.
And from India's chart also, it is clear that in this particular year, exports are
building up and furthermore, FDIs are coming in.
That's very clear from India's chart.
From China's chart, one can see that from October 2025 to October 2028, this is not
like a great period for the Chinese economy.
Of course, China will play an important role.
And let me also add another point here.
Ancient texts always say that when Rahu is in Aquarius, India and China sort of, if not
in enmity, then they have a certain understanding, which is of course short-lived because by
the end of November 2026, Rahu will move out of Aquarius and move into Capricorn with Ketu
coming into Cancer.
And I'm quoting Bhadrabahu Sahita here when I talk about Rahu in Aquarius.
That will soon be over.
And again, this sort of an understanding, which is there.
You know that there was a previous meet and India had very, I wouldn't say warmly, but
met with the Chinese head of state.
Even those diplomatic ties will again sort of come under the scanner after Rahu moves
away from Aquarius.
I have already said that China runs a combination where the Chinese soldiers...
See, even after a diplomatic relation with India, China has this propensity of pulling
the carpet under your feet.
So, everything seems fine.
And suddenly there is an attack.
So, that is the Chinese way of life.
And that is the Chinese mindset.
That's how they would attack us.
So, one always has to be wary of China.
China is not someone that you can trust.
So, the elephant and the dragon can never be friends really.
It's a very slimy enemy.
It will attack you when you least expect to be attacked.
That is China for you.
But as I said, October 25 to October 28, China is not in the best of positions in this time
frame.
It's not that it will be powerful.
China is coming down, is stepping down on the ladder while India is climbing up on the
ladder.
This October 25 to October 28, this is the transition that will come through.
With China stepping down the ladder and India climbing up the ladder.
That will show through.
With India becoming aggressive, assertive and fortune not favouring China as much as
it used to.
March-April 2027 to March-April 2028 is another weak period for China.
So, October 25 to October 28 and the weakest part would be April 27 to April 28.
Within the larger three-year period, this particular year would be weak for China.
Thank you, Manisa ji for giving us an astrological insight into what's in store for these countries
in 2026.
Yes, I again end my podcast by saying that there is no bias.
There is no personal opinion.
These are purely astrological insights taken from the Chaitra Shukla Pratipada horoscopes
and of course, the respective Chaitra Shukla Pratipada horoscopes of different countries
that we are mentioning here.
