Introduction

“Yes, madam, I am finished. My star has fallen. I have no fight left in me. I work and I try, yet know that all is but a farce… I await the end of the tragedy – and, strangely detached from everything, I do not feel any more an actor. I feel I am the last of spectators.”

– Benito Mussolini in an interview with Madeleine Mollier, 1945


This book is for those who understand that politics is not just something happening on the news – it has a direct and personal impact on their lives, their future, and the opportunities available to their children. This book provides astrological predictions for various countries. You will gain insight into which regions are likely to remain stable and secure in the coming years-and which may face turbulence.

The events of the past five years have made it clearer than ever: the decisions made by world leaders do not just shape economies and governments – they affect the everyday lives of ordinary people in profound ways.

It all began with the COVID-19 pandemic, when world leaders shut down businesses, put much of the population out of work, pushed much of the economy online, and separated families-many of whom never had a chance to reunite before the lockdowns hit. COVID, along with the decisions made by governments, reshaped everyone’s lives in ways we could never have imagined.

The events of 2022, 2023, and 2024 have made one thing undeniably clear – the place you live and the passport you hold are more than just bureaucratic details. They shape your opportunities, your freedom of movement, your financial stability, your relationships, and even your personal safety.

We rely on political and military experts to make sense of unfolding global events, and we use their analyses to form our own perspectives on the future. But astrology offers a deeper, more structured way of predicting what lies ahead.

In this book, I make predictions from the perspective of professional predictive astrology to assess the world’s key decision-makers. Use these insights as another lens through which to analyze global trends, evaluate possibilities, and test your own predictions about the future.

This book is full of hidden meanings, thought-provoking insights, and puzzles woven between the lines – details that will catch the eye of any astute reader. You will see how astrology reveals the secrets of governments and explore a number of fascinating predictions about today’s world leaders.

My track record in predictive astrology includes many forecasts that have already come to pass – Biden’s presidency, Trump’s two election victories, the end of the COVID-19 pandemic, instability in Ukraine, intensifying conflicts in Israel, the shift of power in Germany, and more.

I hope that my experience and expertise will help you cut through illusions, dispel unnecessary fears, and approach the future with greater clarity and confidence.

Astrology of Power: What Defines a Politician?

Power is both alluring and absolutely devastating. Once someone has tasted it, they can never truly return to who they were before. In this chapter, I will present the astrological foundation behind this phenomenon.

Certain key features in a politician’s birth chart indicate a strong drive for authority and governance. One of the most telling factors is the prominence of specific nakshatras. A nakshatra is a sector of 13 degrees and 20 minutes, which is typical in the Indian astrological coordinate system.

Such nakshatras as Swati, Satabhisha, and Ardra frequently appear in the birth charts of politicians. Swati spans from 6° 40′ to 20° 00′ Libra, Satabhisha stretches from 6° 40′ to 20° 00′ Aquarius, and Ardra extends from 6° 40′ to 20° 00′ Gemini. All three are ruled by Rahu, the North Node of the Moon.

Rahu represents an intense drive for material success, an insatiable hunger for social fulfillment, and a deep-seated craving to enjoy the privileges of power and high status in life.

It has nothing to do with spiritual life. Rahu is highly practical, materialistic, and endlessly ambitious. In the astrological charts of ordinary individuals, Rahu is often associated with addiction to alcohol and drugs.

The ancient Hindus depicted the North Node of the Moon as the severed head of a demon with bulging eyes and an insatiable mouth, endlessly devouring everything in its path. This striking imagery is no coincidence – Rahu and Ketu, the lunar nodes, are closely tied to eclipses. During a lunar eclipse, Rahu is said to “swallow” the Moon, momentarily stealing its light and casting a shadow over the Earth.

Yet, Rahu can never be truly satisfied, always yearning for more. According to legend, because its head was severed from his body, anything it consumes simply spills out through the broken neck.


The Image of the Severed Head of the Demon Rahu


Power, personified by the demon Rahu, perfectly embodies its own essence. Everything is sacrificed in its name, but it is not enough. No matter how much power is accumulated, it slips away, leaking endlessly through the open wound. Power devours the man himself, his relationships with loved ones, children, affection and friendship.

The man who enters the gates of greatness bearing only his intangible riches leaves that city with a shattered fortune – but clothed in robes of gold.

Power succession is one of civilization’s greatest achievements, safeguarding against Rahu’s destructive influence on both ruler and nation.

When the principle of succession is violated, it leads to the inevitable downfall of both the ruler and his people. Even if the consequences are delayed for decades…

In the birth charts of politicians who do not change for decades, Rahu almost always stands as one of the dominant planetary forces.

The first indication of a political birth chart is the presence of planets in the nakshatras Ardra, Swati, and Satabhisha, as all three are under the symbolic rulership of Rahu. During the planetary periods of these planets a person will develop an interest in politics or become actively involved in it.

The second key indicator is the presence of planets near the royal stars, associated with success, prestige, and honors.

Among these, the most influential for a political birth chart are Spica, Regulus, and Antares. Politicians with these stars prominently placed in their charts tend to wield the greatest power and influence.

As we move through this book, we will analyze multiple birth charts, exploring the unique characteristics and significance of each of these stars in shaping political figures.



Below is a list of 12 stars that strongly influence political power and recognition:

– Aldebaran;

– Rigel;

– Polaris;

– Betelgeuse;

– Sirius;

– Regulus;

– Spica;

– Arcturus;

– Gemma;

– Antares;

– Altair;

– Deneb Algedi.


Around Spika, the most powerful in the entire sky, the ancient Hindus allotted Chitra Nakshatra. Its symbol – a diamond or a pearl – perfectly reflects its essence. This nakshatra is linked to those who have access to luxury and whose life involves opportunities to study art, culture of nations.

Chitra is one of the nakshatras that indicate a natural inclination toward leadership and holding positions of authority in society. Its ruler is Mars, which sets it apart from the Rahu-ruled nakshatras that we discussed earlier. I specifically want to highlight that its influence is shaped by Spica, rather than the fictitious point of Rahu.

The nature of Spica and Chitra Nakshatra is noble, intelligent, and refined, representing a form of power that is thoughtful, cultured, and tied to luxury and high status. This is not the chaotic and insatiable energy of Rahu but rather an inherent aristocratic quality. Often, this influence manifests quite literally – people with an active Chitra Nakshatra are either born into privileged social circles or rise to them through the course of their lives.

A prime example of such a birth chart is Boris Johnson, who has an Ascendant at 29 degrees 36 minutes of Virgo. When Johnson was born, the star Spica was rising in the East, and the nakshatra Chitra became the starting point of the whole birth chart.

Case Study 1. Boris Johnson


The Natal Chart of Boris Johnson


Boris Johnson’s paternal great-grandfather, the Turkish journalist Ali Kemal, was briefly Minister of the Interior in the government of Ahmed Tevfik Pasha, the last Grand Vizier of the Ottoman Empire. During his tenure, he issued an order for the arrest of Mustafa Kemal Atatürk.

The great-grandmother of Boris Johnson, Baroness Marie-Louise von Pfeffel, was the granddaughter of renowned chess player Jules Arnous de Rivière, the great-granddaughter of Duke Paul Wilhelm of Württemberg, the grandniece of Grand Duchess Elena Pavlovna, and the niece of Baroness Ernestine von Pfeffel, the wife of poet Fyodor Tyutchev.”

Boris Johnson’s maternal great-grandfather was the American paleographer Elias Avery Lowe. His maternal great-grandmother was Helen Tracy Lowe-Porter – an American translator of prose fiction. He is also a distant descendant of King George II. That is what it means to be born under a lucky star that denotes aristocratic roots!


The third key indicator of a leader’s birth chart is a strong Jupiter positioned in the first, fourth, seventh, or tenth houses – in other words in Kendras. Jupiter is the planet of speakers, ideologues, and skilled orators. It grants the ability to communicate profound ideas, articulate global visions, and develop long-term strategies. Without strong Jupiter’s influence, it becomes much harder to convey big-picture thinking and gain the trust of the people.

Case Study 2. Mikheil Saakashvili

Mikheil Saakashvili is a politician with a powerful Jupiter. This planetary strength enabled him to implement large-scale reforms in his country and gain authority not only in Georgia but also across the Commonwealth of Independent States (CIS) as a whole.

Saakashvili’s birth chart teaches us a crucial lesson: power and influence are granted for a limited time. A politician may rise to leadership during a favorable period, and in other periods he may be left with nothing because his period of glory has literally passed.

The peak of Mikheil Saakashvili’s success occurred during his Mars period, which began in 2009 and lasted until just after the completion of his second presidential term in November 2016.

Afterward, he gained political influence and support in Ukraine, but on September 29, 2021, he returned to Georgia to oppose the ruling government. His arrest followed swiftly.


The Natal Chart of Mikheil Saakashvili


From an astrological perspective, his downfall was inevitable. The Mars period that once elevated him to the presidency had ended in 2016, and now Rahu, which ruled the astro chart in 2021, had deceived Saakashvili.

Let me remind you that Rahu is a demon, a chimera. He has no physical form like the Moon, stars and other planets do. It lures a person into reckless actions, deceiving them with inflated expectations of the future. But in reality Rahu does not exist in a physical sense – it is just a shadow.

During an eclipse the shadow of the Earth passes over the Moon, creating the illusion that the Moon has disappeared. Saakashvili fell into the same illusion – he believed that the risk of arrest was not such a big deal; he truly believed that people would stand tall for him and carry him on their shoulders straight to the presidential palace.

But they did not. At least, not in the way he had hoped – not with the strength and determination that we see in 2024 and 2025, when the regime has grown so oppressive that public resistance has become inevitable.

Now Saakashvili is in prison, and it is not until 2027 that there is any hope of him being exchanged and going abroad.

What is the takeaway? A ruler is invincible only for as long as fate shields them. But once that protection fades, any politician can be thrown by fate to the wayside, and it is lucky if that wayside is comfortable enough.

Before attempting to seize power on a wave of popularity, one must think carefully, estimate the time, place, and circumstances. The period of time under the opportunity to gain power is usually extremely short, and in the scale of life is minuscule, it is about 3—9 months.


But let us return to the key indicators of a political birth chart. One of the most crucial factors is the presence of Saturn in a prominent position. For a public leader, Saturn must display signs of power – it should be in the royal sign of Leo, exalted in Libra, or hold the position of Raja Yoga Karaka. Such placements are highly favorable for a politician’s fate, often extending their time in power for many years.

Authoritarian leaders often have exalted Saturn, while representatives of democratic political systems have Saturn in its sign.

At the beginning of this book, I noted that the birth charts of presidents are mystically linked to the karma of their nation.

For the term of office, the astrological chart of the leader conducts through itself the karma of the country and merges with it. The more a country tends to be democratic – the less fusion of fates. When the state tends towards totalitarianism – the mutual penetration becomes stronger.

Authoritarian and totalitarian leaders, who shape the government solely according to their own will and concentrate all key branches of power in their hands, tie the fate of the nation directly to their own birth chart. The course of events in the country becomes a reflection of their personal planetary cycles and transits.

This means that, even without knowing the form of state government, we can determine a leader’s governing style simply by analyzing their birth chart along with a few key facts about the country they rule.

In the following chapters, we will make astrological predictions for Xi Jinping, Donald Trump, Benjamin Netanyahu, Recep Tayyip Erdoğan, and many other modern world leaders.


Leader and Nation: An Unbreakable Bond

The Bible says that every nation gets the leader it deserves. I tend to agree – a country’s destiny calls for a particular type of leader, and that request is always fulfilled.

A national leader never emerges from nowhere; their personality reflects the country’s most pressing expectations and trends. A country calls for a specific leader, and the one who fits best rises. When expectations shift, the leader changes too.

Yesterday it might have been a member of the ruling elite; today – someone from the working class; tomorrow – a successful businessman. What matters is that the country’s demand always aligns with the leader who rises to power.

During a leader’s time in power, the houses in their birth chart take on national significance. What once reflected personal matters now governs state affairs. The seventh house, which previously indicated partnerships in personal life, changes after an election, signifying relations with other world leaders, diplomatic alliances, and the country’s reputation on the international stage.

The second house of money before an election represents a leader’s personal finances, but after inauguration it reflects the financial capacity of the entire state. The amount of wealth indicated in the leader’s birth chart during their time in power directly influences how much money they will be able to attract to the country – or, conversely, how much may be spent.

The more authoritarian and absolute the regime, the stronger this dependence becomes. In democratic nations, the connection between the leader’s fate and the country’s destiny is less direct. At times, this connection feels almost mystical – a ruler’s birth chart reflects all major events that will unfold in the country during their time in power.

Turn to the natal chart of George VI, which ruled England during World War II.

Case Study 3. King George VI

In the birth chart of the King of the United Kingdom and the British Dominions the Aries period began on December 15, 1938. Aries is ruled by Mars, the planet of war, which in his chart was placed in the eighth house – the house of crises, stress, fear, and danger.


The Natal Chart of King George VI


A cluster of four planets in the warlike sign of Scorpio, positioned in the eighth house of crises, strongly indicates that this period will be marked by conflict, stress, and matters of life and death.

In the seventh house of international relations, Saturn appears next to the star Zubenelgenubi or the Southern Claw, suggesting the following definition: “Harsh and unforgiving justice, a reckoning for human error, restoration of a disrupted balance, emphasizing the inescapability of punishment.”

Do you know when the Aries period ended in George VI’s chart? December 14, 1945. This means that from 1939 to 1945, the birth chart indicated that the ruler of England would face a period of trials and crises.

Does not this remarkable case demonstrate that professional predictive astrology can, in fact, illuminate the course of world events?

Now, let us turn to the planetary transits in the sky at key moments, as they relate to the birth chart of King George VI of England.

But before we dive into the transit analysis, it is important to briefly explain how this technique works.


Every person carries a cosmic passport – their birth chart, calculated for the exact time and place of their birth. This chart is a snapshot of the heavens at the precise moment life begins.

To understand how an individual’s fate interacts with the outer world, let us use the analogy of a music box.

The metal comb of the music box represents the natal chart, fixed within a person’s consciousness. Each day, we engage with the ever-changing rhythm of planetary motion, just as the rotating drum of the music box strikes the prongs of the comb.

We “cling” with the protrusions of our psyche to the current position of the planets in the sky, from which our reactions, actions, decisions and the events we experience in the outer world.


Now, let us return to the birth chart of King George VI, the monarch of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland at the time of the outbreak of World War II.

Case Study 4. Transit to the Onset of World War II

The Moon, which signifies a person’s thoughts, mood and state of mind, was positioned in the sixth house of conflicts and confrontations of the King on that ill-fated day of September 1, 1939.


The Transit to the Onset of World War II


The seventh house of international relations was affected by Saturn and Ketu in transit. These are the two worst malefic of all the planets in the astro chart, and in the first weeks after the outbreak of war, they both affected the seventh house of the King of Great Britain.

The planet ruler of the fourth house of the Homeland, which is the most sensitive point of the natal chart for the leader, was at that moment in the sign of its fall, which foreshadowed the inevitable raids of the enemy on the cities of England.

Mars – the planet of war – was transiting through the fourth house of George VI’s homeland. This was yet another omen for the King – a warning of the approaching German forces.

Mars was in its full strength, exalted in Capricorn.

Exaltation is a unique planetary condition in which a planet appears more powerful than it truly is. It is similar to moments in human life when we feel “on fire” – performing far beyond our usual capacity. This is the nature of exaltation: its results are brilliant, but unstable.

At the outbreak of World War II, Mars was in exaltation – a placement that signaled a formidable enemy, one who seemed stronger than he actually was. The plan for a swift, powerful strike succeeded at first, but could not be sustained – Germany became entangled in a long and exhausting war.

At the same time In George VI’s chart, the Sun (the planet of work duties) and the ruler of the first house of personality were transiting through the eleventh house of alliances – a clear sign that it was the right time to form a military coalition and unite forces against the enemy.

Houses in the Birth Chart of a Politician: Meanings

First house. The nation’s health and overall well-being. Represents key events affecting the entire country, including epidemics, wars, and mass protests.

Second house. The country’s financial life. Economic crisis, periods of prosperity, sanctions that apply to the country.

Third house. Relations with neighboring countries. Signing of important agreements, diplomatic negotiations, trade agreements, and border policies.

Fourth house. Homeland, national infrastructure, transportation, internal security.

Fifth house. Leadership status, influence, and public approval. Indicates political success, strategic decision-making, popularity.

Sixth house. Public unrest, protests, national healthcare, military affairs (rearmament, internal conflicts), and legal matters, including international sanctions and criminal prosecutions. Participation in elections, confrontations and contests.

Seventh house. The nation’s reputation on the world stage. Governs foreign relations, alliances, international diplomacy, and the leader’s interactions with global figures. Relationship with members of the president’s office and ability to assemble a strong team.

Eighth house. Crises, wars, natural disasters, national emergencies, and high mortality rates. Also signifies foreign investments, economic dependencies, attracting funds from partners and allies.

Ninth house. Diplomacy, position in the international arena, diplomatic successes of the country.

Tenth house. Legitimacy and effectiveness of leadership. A real-time indicator of government efficiency, his ministers and the office as a whole, political stability.

Eleventh house. Political alliances, unions, and coalitions. Achievements and prestigious world-class awards.

Twelfth house. International travel. Secret operations, espionage, security agencies, governs state secrets, and the activities of security agencies.


A politician’s astrological chart serves a dual role – it reflects both the individual and the government institution they represent. When we combine the national chart, the inauguration chart, and the leader’s natal chart, we get the most accurate predictive results. This triad reveals key turning points and major events in the life of the state with remarkable clarity.

State Natal Chart: The Way to Find It

Determining a country’s natal chart is a complex task – one that requires not only extensive work from the astrologer but also deep knowledge, patience, and careful analysis of historical data.
