With inflation at an all-time high and the government in danger of default due to the nonpayment of interest on the loans it has taken on over many decades, Pakistan is experiencing its worst economic crisis since its inception in 1947.

After former Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif, the threat of former Prime Minister Imran Khan being imprisoned is looming. Political instability, army pressure, and terrorist organizations have become obstacles to Pakistan’s development. Today, the situation has deteriorated to the point where the Pakistani rupee has fallen to 280 per dollar and Pakistan cannot pay its debts. Many educated and skilled Pakistanis are leaving the country in search of better opportunities as a result of the situation.

The people of Pakistan have only their civil and military leaders to blame since they have utilized terrorism as a weapon of foreign policy and turned it into a cottage industry.  From the astrological point of view, Pakistan is under the Maha Dasha of the 2nd and 7th lord Venus, a Maraka (killer) planet for its Aries Lagna horoscope. As in mundane astrology, Venus is the significator of currency In Vedic astrology, each planet is associated with certain areas of life and phenomena. Venus is commonly linked to love, beauty, pleasure, and material possessions. Therefore, it makes sense that in mundane astrology, Venus would be connected to currency and financial matters in the Aries Lagna chart,  In the case of Pakistan Venus is in planetary war with Saturn which is functional malefic in its horoscope. Ever since this Venus Dasha started Pakistan’s economy has been declining consistently and the country has suffered from major terrorist attacks by fanatic groups supports by its own army and administration earlier.

Foundation Horoscope of Pakistan

We will study the chart of Pakistan in the context of its current economic crisis and the upcoming general elections in August 2023. We will see from its Dasha (Venus-Saturn in Vimshottari) if Pakistan can hold elections successfully or if it will go under an emergency-like situation?

Currently, Pakistan is experiencing Venus-Saturn Dasha, and Venus is engaged in planetary wars with Saturn. This signifies a period of struggle and difficulties for Pakistan, notably in the financial and diplomatic realms. It not only harms Pakistan’s economy but also causes instability in the political system, which is bad for the nation’s economic development.

What does the upcoming Dasha of Venus and Mercury indicate?

Venus-Mercury When I look at Mercury in other Varga charts, I see a little bit better information, which suggests that Pakistan will be able to secure aid for the country. The beginning of the Dasha is on December 26, 2023. It won’t be their cup of tea because Mercury is a functional malefic in the Aries ascendant chart. Mercury’s placement in other Varga charts, however, suggests that Pakistan may still have some opportunities to improve its situation with outside assistance. It will be crucial for them to consider all options and make measured choices in order to take full advantage of these changes.

We will also study the horoscope of former Prime Minister Imran Khan who was ousted from power in April 2022 and since then he is facing court cases. Now there is a looming danger over his arrest for one of the corruption charges. but the Dasha of Jupiter-Venus in his Sagittarius Lagna chart appears to be very dangerous.

Imran Khan is a former Pakistan Cricket Team Captain turned politician who was the 22nd Prime Minister of the country from August 2018 to April 2022. He had become a legend after winning the Cricket World Cup in 1992 in Australia under his captainship. It was the Maha Dasha of Mars (1989 to 1996) which made him a big hero in Pakistan. He formed his own political party ‘Pakistan Tahreek-E-Insaaf (PTI) in 1996 and enter into politics. His party become the main opposition in 2013. In the year 2018, they won the election and came to the helm of affairs with high hopes when Imran was under Jupiter Dasha and Saturn Anter Dasha.

Enigmatic Jupiter Dasha and Venus Anter Dasha for Imran Khan

Imran Khan is now under enigmatic Jupiter Dasha and Venus Anter-Dasha in the Vimshottari system from January 2022 to September 2024. It is Jupiter-Venus-Rahu from December 2022 to May 2023 when he is facing the fear of arrest in a corruption case. In Jupiter-Venus-Jupiter (22 May 2023 to 29 September 2023) Imran Khan’s party may face general elections as they are scheduled to be held in August this year only. His main opposition is Pakistan Muslim League of Nawaz Sharif and his brother, who is currently prime minister, Shahbaz Sharif. Also Pakistan People’s Party of  Bilawal Bhutto the son of former Prime Minister Benazir Bhutto is another main party that at present is in alliance with Pakistan Muslim League in power.
