New Delhi, India

This election season, India is preparing to etch history with the second-longest voting exercise. There is intense hustle-bustle in media which is trying to navigate through the promises, allegations, imprisonments and debates of political leaders as they take to the field and flaunt their massive connect with the people, especially in the hinterland where the heart of India lies.

In this period of intense glory, when more than 1.43 billion people are set to decide who will remain in power and who will fall from the throne, astrologers become the bridge that links the present scenarios to reflect what the future is likely to have in store for them.

Some may dismiss this as superstition but many political leaders as well as electorates are curious to understand what path is being charted out by the alignment of stars for the political leaders.

Astrology reveals the personality, approach and conduct of an individual which plays an important role in politics and determines his/her win or loss. So, astrology reflects on a person's reality and tells what they are bound to do and achieve.

WION spoke to Astrologer Rashi Sharma to understand what the stars of the political stalwarts indicate about their performance in the election battle. Here's what she predicted: 

Narendra Modi

Advertisment

The Indian prime minister will definitely be back in power. Mars and Saturn in his horoscope are very strong and these planets are important for politics. He is likely to strengthen the country's defence and home ministry in his next tenure.

Amit Shah

Saturn is playing a very big role in the Indian home minister's horoscope currently. He will be able to defeat his opposition easily. His planets indicate that he is likely to get other ministries, apart from home ministry. He may also have great influence in the foreign ministry or may altogether head it in the near future.

Sonia Gandhi

She is bound to face opposition from her own party people and family members and her decisions will be opposed. She is likely to engage in arguments and things won't take place as she wishes them to. In a way, it can be said that Sonia Gandhi is on a losing streak.

Rahul Gandhi

In Gandhi's case, Saturn is placed in the fourth house which is not a very good sign. His relationship with his mother can deteriorate. He will also have to face opposition from his family members. Because of Saturn's placement, he has been fumbling and forgetting lines while speaking. In his horoscope, the lack of perspective is very evident. He may not lead Congress after 10 years.

Arvind Kejriwal

In the Delhi Chief Minister's horoscope, the North Lunar Node's sub-period has started and as soon as it began, he was imprisoned. So it is bringing misfortune to him and not luck, as it happens in some cases. He may get bail but will have to again go to prison in the next year. He will not strongly stand through the elections and is also likely to lose the chief minister post.
