A bleak future for Hardik and his movement

Considering the negative influences of the planets, Hardik might become over confident

Twenty-two-year-old Hardik Patel, who galvanised the Patel (Patidar) masses in a Gujarat-wide movement recently to demand reservations in the OBC quota, is now a household name. Hardik’s meteoric rise has baffled everyone, especially the political establishment. Let’s take a look at what the stars have to say about Hardik and his movement’s future.

His planetary factors indicate that Hardik is indeed gifted with leadership and communication skills (Swagruhi Mercury and strong Mars), but Saturn’s retrogression may not let him become a very big leader. A Strong Mars does make him forceful and aggressive, and people will initially be charmed by his aura, but the negatively placed Saturn and Ketu may not let him go very far, or grow, prosper and perform as a big leader.

The future of the movement

The transiting Jupiter is giving strength to Hardik’s Natal Saturn and hence this ongoing transit is likely to be fruitful and supportive for his efforts in pushing the Anamat Aandolan — but only to a certain extent. The transiting Saturn through Scorpio has been aspecting his Natal Mars and Venus and will continue till January 2017. This is giving adversity to his chart and it will not allow Hardik’s efforts to bear real fruits. Saturn's negative effect, thus, shall cast doom on Hardik’s efforts and his efforts may not manage to bring about any real change. It may also diminish his political power.

The Road ahead for the movement

Considering the negative influences of the planets, Hardik might become over confident. His current group may remain united for some duration but the upcoming transit of Rahu (after January, 2016) over his Natal Venus (placed in Leo), and the transit of Ketu over his Natal Saturn (placed in Aquarius) will be extremely tough for Patel. So post-January 30, 2016, will be unfavourable for Hardik, his confidence, his group and his image. There may be internal disputes in his group, and his personal popularity and efficiency may suffer tremendously. The group may also disintegrate, or Hardik may not be able to lead it further, post this period.

Mainstream Politics?

There are marginal chances of Hardik making a name in mainstream politics. As the upcoming transit of Rahu-Ketu (from January 2016) will not be favourable for him, things may get difficult for him. Till January, 2016, Hardik may manage to reach the national stage, but things may turn for worse for him after that. He will have to be very careful of his image, after this time, or he may face defamation. His efforts may also be crushed post-January 2017. This will end in 2020 and it is only after that Hardik may be able to re-emerge in politics, if he does at all.
