2026 is here !! 2025 was chaotic but 2026 promises to be a year of profound rude shocks. The global geopolitical realignment which is triggered by the conjunction of Jupiter-Saturn in November 2019, will be very much visible in 2026.
The Hindu New Year (Chaitra Shukla Pratipada) on 19 March 2026 at 06:53 AM IST along with the lunation and solation charts establishes the cosmic template for the entire year. The starting samvatsar cycle is Parabhava which is the 40th samvatsara in the current 60-year cycle. The name “Parābhava” is derived from Sanskrit, indicating a year of testing, correction, and transformation. My take on 2026 is as follows :-
1) Pisces Lagna in 2083 Samvatsar chart is extremely favourable for India’s long term prosperity.
2) The full Moon chart on Jan 3,2026 is a warning signal with a stellium of 4 planets in Sagittarius ( 8th house of the lunation chart) indicates some major unpleasant event in India in January itself.
3) April 2026 is another dangerous month with sudden global shock events with long consequences.
3) Amid global geopolitical tensions and domestic unpleasant events Samvatsar 2083, India hasremarkable protective features with Jupiter in the fourth house.Ketu in 6th house fully indicates destruction of adversarial plots against the nation.
4) Samvat 2083 indicates a bad year for the US with further decline in superpower status.Samvatsar chart is Virgo rising lagesh Mercury retrograde along with Mars and Rahu promises a problematic year full of conflicts.
5) Confrontation of Russia with NATO becomes inevitable.Russia will make significant territorial gains but will face massive internal destruction. Victory for Russia is indicated.Flashpoint for World War 3 starts here.
6) China will make strong economic gains and will be actively involved in the upcoming global conflict but no major financial collapse.
7) It is going to be bad year for Europe with conflicts and financial instability.
8) 2026 is the year of complete global financial reset.Unlike the 2008 financial crisis triggered by housing market collapse, this time it it will be fundamentally more severe. A black swan event is indicated.
9) Spiritual and technological renaissance is indicated with major breakthroughs in AI and quantum computing. Pisces rising in the Samvatsar chart indicates the inevitable rise of Sanatan Dharma.
I wish all our readers and valued patrons a very Happy and Prosperous 2026. Stay safe and blessed.
