(Apart from the 9 planets, as per western astrology, there are 3 more outer planets known as extra saturnian planets which are Uranus (also known as Herschel), Neptune and Pluto. As per scriptures, Uranus is known as Prajapati, Neptune is known as Varun and Pluto is known as Yama. In western astrology, Uranus owns the sign Aquarius, Neptune owns the sign Pisces and Pluto own the sign Scorpio. These 3 planets are very slow-moving planets. Uranus travels through all signs in approx 84 years, Neptune in 164 years and Pluto in 248 years. In astrology predictions of individuals, the standard map based on longitude and latitude of place is adopted.
However, for mundane predictions involving nations for prediction of natural calamities, political developments, wars, etc, the Geodetic map is used. In the Geodetic map, the universe is sub-divided into 12 signs ranging from Aries to Pisces. Uranus entered the sign Gemini on July 7, 2025 and it will be in Gemini till the end of 2033.
Uranus has a major role to play when it enters the sign Gemini especially with respect USA, Syria, Lebanon, Italy, Vietnam, Japan, France, Russia, China, Israel, Pakistan, India, Germany, Thailand and Korea. Between 2025 to 2033, Uranus in Gemini will force USA into several wars (tariff wars too) amongst the above nations.
As per Geodetic map, the transit of Uranus in sign Gemini in the nations like India, Pakistan, part of Iran, Afghanistan, part of China, Nepal, Bangladesh Kazakhstan, Oman, Turkmenistan, Russia and Sri Lanka, there will be several sweeping changes in the government. Here existing governments will be replaced with new ones and the rulers will face several challenges. In the past when Uranus was in Gemini the US involvement in World War 2 (1941 – 1945) and the US Civil War (1861 – 1865) were witnessed. The transit of Uranus through Gemini between 1774 – 1782, there was American Revolutionary War. The world war II began in 1939 and ended in 1945, when Uranus was in the sign Gemini. When India got independence and Pakistan was created in 1947, Uranus was in Gemini. So, during the transit of Uranus in the sign Gemini between 2025 to 2033, we can see the nations in and around India as stated above will enter into wars. Uranus in Gemini, Mexico will face several natural calamities in the coming years, there will be internal turmoil and USA will meddle into the affairs of Mexico by trying to take them over. China will witness face-off with Dalai Lama’s succession plans and Judiciary will be under attack. Israel will witness major shift in its religious demography from jews to muslims and thereby give rise to unrest within. France and Italy will witness major natural calamities. Germany will participate in the upcoming wars. There will be unrest in and around the borders of Lebanon. Saudi Arabia will witness major shift to Shia muslims from the present Sunni.
Bangladesh will be taken over by military and judiciary, EC, etc will face backlash. Uranus in the sign Gemini will give rise trade wars, new technologies will be developed, there will be civil wars, etc. Overall, there will be major accidents in the communications sector (like air, sea, land, etc). New technologies in the space will be developed. Communications and space sectors will undergo a major technological change.
The AI will get further boost. High speed forms of transport like bullet trains will be a reality. Highways will get inter-connected resulting into quick reach. Defence expenditures will increase. New forms of missiles, drones and nuclear technologies will get developed. Space technology will gain momentum. So, Uranus in Gemini is a clear indication of WW3 between 2025 to 2033.
