India and Pakistan — which have been at loggerheads from long — are now again facing an intensified crisis because of increased tension along the border. There have been problems on the LoC for a long time, mostly triggered from the other side of the border.
Continuous infiltration of terrorists, constant violation of the ceasefire by Pakistani troops and other misadventures, especially along the International Border (IB) in the Jammu and Kashmir region, has never let peace prevail. Things took a really ugly turn after the Uri attack conducted by the Pakistan based terror outfit JeM, in which 19 valiant Indian soldiers were martyred.
In a deviation from its usual peaceful and diplomatic stance, India responded with a high-precision military strike and gave a real and befitting response, which various national and international leaders commended. But the situation doesn’t seem to be getting better anytime soon; instead greater tensions loom large. Ganesha predicts a difficult road ahead.
India-Pakistan and the Astrological Picture
A thorough analysis of the foundation charts of both Independent India and Pakistan indicates something more intense than the Kargil episode, between November 2016 and January 2017.
Escalating tensions
India is currently under the influence of Moon Mahadasha and Mars Antardasha. In India's Foundation Chart, Mars happens to be the Lord of the 7th House — the House of War. So, the transit of Mars will influence the proceedings till the end of February 2017. Mars — the planet of aggression, also happens to be the representative of the armed forces and matters pertaining to defence affairs. This planet’s transit through the fiery Sign — Sagittarius, indicates the aggravation of matters and increase in tension to a great extent. The conjunction of Mars and Ketu in Aquarius will pose greater threats and indicates more dangerous situations.
A critical time
The period between November 21, 2016 and January 10, 2017, will be extremely sensitive and crucial for both the countries.
There will be immense pressure on internal and external security forces, due to increased terrorist activities and threats. This may lead to serious clashes along, and even across the border — potentially even Kargil War-like situations. Something even more serious than that cannot be ruled out either. The overall planetary picture looks very ominous. Natural calamities may also cause problems for the region.
Potential for trouble
In Pakistan’s case, the country is currently under the influence of Venus Mahadasha and Rahu Antardasha. The Venus-Rahu-Ketu Dasha sequence will be extremely critical for the nation.
Also, the transiting Mars is aspecting the Ascendant Lord Mars and Moon, both. It indicates fiery and sometimes unrestrained reactions from Pakistan’s leaders and the Army. A misadventure from Pakistan cannot be ruled out, particularly between 21st November 2016 and 28th January 2017.
