Donald Trump’s Tariff War: Astrology Uncovers Shocking Truth Behind US-China Trade Battle!

Tariffs announcements are not new to US, especially when it comes to Trump administration. The first presidency of Donald Trump involved protectionist trade initiatives against other countries, most notably China.

Astrologically, the third house in mundane astrology signifies tariffs. The relationship of the third house with the sixth or eighth house results into the tariff war with the other countries. This extreme behaviour also has a connect with the individual chart of the leader of the nation.

We will analyse the charts of USA (July 4, 1776 at 5.10 pm at Philadelphia, PA, USA), of Donald Trump (June 14, 1946 at 10.54 am at Jamaica, NY, USA), of China Republic II (October 1, 1949 at 3.15 pm, at Peking, China), of XI Jinping (available data is June 15, 1953 at 12.27 pm at Beijing, China) and finally of India Independence chart (August 15, 1947, at 00.00.01 am at Delhi). I am not relying on Modi’s chart as his birth data is doubtful.

On April 2 — a day he called Liberation Day — Trump signed an executive order imposing a minimum 10% tariff on all U.S. imports effective April 5. The most affected nation was obviously China. Donald Trump is under the dasa of Jupiter/Venus till May 29, 2027. Venus for his chart is the lord of the third house signifying tariffs and it is in the sign Cancer in the 12th house along with Saturn the lord of the sixth house which signifies war. Its placement in the 12th house signifies that Donald Trump will finally lose the tariffs war with other nations as the placement of Venus and Saturn are in the 12th house.

Based on the Saturn’s transit in Pisces till April 27, 2025, he is expected to announce more tariffs. Then from October 9, 2025, to November 2, 2025, gain there will be a series of tariff announcements by Trump. However, he will soon realise his actions are making him infamous and he will then roll back major tariffs between December 20, 2025, and January 13, 2026. During period July 29, 2025, to September 11, 2025, we can expect massive protests against the Trump administration. During this period there can be assassination attempt on him too. As regards the chart of USA, the transit Saturn in the sign Pisces on March 29, 2025 triggered the tariffs war. Along with the Saturn, the transit Mars in the sign Gemini was there till April 3, 2025, also triggered the war. Now, as per the USA chart, the transit Mars will transit in the sign Virgo from July 29, 2025, to September 13, 2025, we can expect, Trump to be more aggressive on tariffs and also engage into war with the other nations. This will make him more infamous.

With respect to China, as per the nation’s chart, between April 3, 2025, to September 13, 2025, Xi Jinping will become more aggressive on the USA front. This is the period we can see the escalation taking place between the USA and China. Ultimately, we can expect China to win the war as transit Jupiter moves into the sign Gemini from May 14, 2025. As per Xi Jinping chart too, the period between July 29, 2025, to September 13, 2025, will see major escalation in tariffs between USA and China. Finally, China will win the war and USA will roll back major tariffs.

As per India chart, Moon will be afflicted by transit of Saturn from April 29, 2025 till September 9, 2025 (upto which the dasa of Moon will operate). During this period India will retaliate by imposing counter tariffs on USA. Saturn for India is the 9th and 10th lord. The 9th house is the both the house of fortune and also the house of obstacles. As it’s the house of fortune, India will be given special treatment by the USA and not suffer.
