Start Of Ketu Mahadasha & The Subsequent Problems Faced By The Congress Party

Her Ketu Mahadasha started in the year 2012 while the Congress was the ruling party under the leadership of Dr. Manmohan Singh, the then Prime Minister and Sonia Gandhi was the Congress President. On December 16th, 2012 the Nirbhaya Gang Rape case rocked the whole country and the streets were suddenly filled with people protesting against the Government and its failures. That was the start of the downfall of Sonia Gandhi and the Congress Party. Many incidents came to light one after the other that backfired for the Congress. 

The Indian- anti corruption movement, popularly known as the Anna Andolan also gathered speed during this time and made things worse for the ruling government. It had been ongoing since 2011 but 2012-2013 was the time it sped, ultimately giving rise to the Aam Aadmi Party. All hell broke loose for the Congress when they lost the Elections of 2014 and BJP (Bharatiya Janata Party) under the leadership of Narendra Modi (India’s current Prime Minister) came to power. 

People have different theories when it comes to analyzing the cause behind the Congress Party’s loss but when we look at Mrs. Sonia Gandhi’s horoscope from an astrological perspective the true picture comes to light. Assessing her horoscope for Congress’s loss becomes important because she has always held important positions for the party and her horoscope would definitely affect what happens to the party as well. Let us take a look at her horoscope:

A Negative Transit Of Ketu & Its Ongoing Mahadasha Proved Disastrous For Sonia Gandhi

She has a Cancer ascendant with Saturn being the 7th house and the 8th house lord placed in the 1st house. This tells us why she lost her husband at such a young age, Saturn is a Maraka but the same planet also grants her the political power and the amazing leadership skills that she possesses. 

If we look closer, Ketu, the deadly planet is placed in the 5th house in Scorpio zodiac sign along with Sun and Mercury. Sun and Mercury together form the ‘Budhaditya Yoga’ but Ketu and the Sun are also forming the ‘Grahan Yoga’ in the same house. The 5th house alongwith ruling the education, children, etc also rules over the planning strategy, political connections, etc. Ketu was transiting the 9th house (the house of luck) in Pisces zodiac back in 2014 when the Congress Party lost the elections and the Gandhi family too lost its luster. 

The Ketu Mahadasha for Sonia Gandhi ended in the year 2019 and we witnessed yet another loss and a jolt to the party’s image in 2019. The Indian masses once again sidelined the once strongest party in the Indian political scenario. She was the Party president at that time as well. The loss of 2019 elections finally saw her stepping down as the Party president and forced the Congress party to restructure all its strategies and its ways of operating. 

Ketu - The Mystic Planet That Rules Over Detachment, Derangement & Spirituality

Acharya Dr. Mrugank, an expert AstroSage astrologer and a motivational speaker describes Ketu and its Mahadasha precisely, in his own words. He says, ‘ Ketu is a malefic planet and generally during its Mahadasha it gives negative results during its period. During its time period Ketu may bring about a negative impact on an individual’s financial status as well as social status. Ketu is a spiritual planet and after taking an individual through numerous ups and downs Ketu will ultimately guide you towards spirituality and bring the much needed peace in a person’s life.’ He concludes by adding that this period can be troublesome health wise too. 

This is exactly what we saw in Mrs. Gandhi’s case. She and her party did face a setback socially. The Ketu Mahadasha did leave a negative impact on her and her party’s image. This period also saw her battling ill health. All of the above statements by Acharya Dr. Mrugank do fit in well when we look closely at the chronology of the events in Mrs. Sonia Gandhi’s life during this period.
