With the world continuously taking unprecedented turns, Donald Trump’s various decisions since he assumed office has raised many eye brows. There is a lot of speculations whether he will survive his term or not seems to be on the rise. Astrology can most certainly give us the information that are looking for and for that we not only have to look at Donald Trump’s natal chart, but also the Mundane charts, primarily Aries Ingress chart for the upcoming years until 2028.
To understand and analyse the condition of the king of the nation, we need to look at the MC and the Lord of the MC. If the Lord of the MC and the MC are afflicted by the malefic planets like Saturn, Mars and the Nodes of the Moon, there will be challenges for the King. Affliction means if the Lord of the MC and/or the MC is in conjunction, square or opposition to Saturn, Mars and the Nodes of the Moon.
Aries Ingress 2025
In the Aries Ingress chart cast for Washington DC for the year 2025, Aquarius is rising at the moment the Sun enters Aries. The Midheaven falls in Scorpio, making Mars the significator of the King. We find Mars debilitated in Cancer, placed in the cadent 6th house.
According to Masha’allah, if the significator of the King is in the 6th house, infirmity will befall him. This statement requires contextual analysis on both physical and political levels.
Physically, the King, represented here by Mars, may suffer from illness, physical weakness, or conditions that impede his ability to function effectively as the nation’s leader. Because Mars, the natural significator of fevers, inflammations, and acute diseases, is in its fall in Cancer, it indicates a weakened or debilitated vitality. Given the symbolism, the King (Donald Trump) may have to undergo health challenges that undermine his capacity to govern.
The 6th house, within the context of politics, signifies individuals in positions of servitude, including servants and subordinates, while also embodying the general idea of service and duty to others. The Fallen Mars as the King’s significator often points to a ruler facing significant internal strife, as those below him conspire to undermine his authority through opposition or outright betrayal within the governing system. The placement suggests that internal instability, distrust, or even acts of sabotage may arise within the executive office. The King may feel unsupported or isolated, gradually losing his grip as a leader. There is potential for reputational damage that could put the King in a bad light.
The Moon and Mars are in aversion, indicates that there is no reception for Mars, and there is no mitigation for the fallen condition of Mars. This lack of any mitigation from challenging placement, confirms that the King’s condition, both physical and political, may continue to decline throughout the year.
It’s important to note that Aquarius is a fixed rising sign, making this ingress chart valid until the next Aries ingress in 2026, without needing to consider the other four cardinal ingresses.
Additionally, we find that Venus, ruler of the 9th house of foreign relations, is in detriment in Aries and located in the cadent 3rd house which also points to decline. Venus is conjoined with Mercury, ruler of the 8th and 5th, and in a whole-sign square to Mars, the King. This configuration suggests strains in foreign diplomacy, likely arising from impulsive or poorly managed communications, or rash decisions made by the administration. Venus afflicted and cadent signals deterioration of alliances or failed negotiations.
The Ascendant ruler, Saturn, is peregrine in Pisces, and conjunct Rahu (North Node), showing that the general condition of the nation, especially the economic and material concerns, ruled by the 2nd house, is in a state of instability and confusion. The 2nd house itself is afflicted by both Rahu and Saturn, the two natural malefics, indicating continued economic decline, likely aggravated by poor leadership, internal discord, and mismanagement.
Aries Ingress 2026
In the Aries Ingress chart of 2026, the MC falls in the 9th house of Aquarius and Saturn, the Lord of the MC is debilitated in the 11th house of Aries. This is a major challenge as it indicates problems with friends and allies.
Masha’allah says that if the significator of the King is in the 11th house, it signifies, fitness, esteem, piety, liberality and expenses because this is the 2nd house from the 10th house.
In this case, we see that Saturn is in a bad condition and we have to deem everything that is opposite to what Masha’allah mentions. Relationships with allies will fail and nations that were once friends will cut ties with the United States. The supporters of the King would abandon him. Liberality will fail and things will take a diversion more towards totalitarianism. He would be deemed unfit and hated by his own people. There is no reception from Mars and therefore, Saturn has no mitigation to its debilitated condition.
On the other hand, it is important to take notice of the 10th house since it is the natural house of administration. The 10th house is afflicted heavily by the presence of Mars and Rahu. There would be rash or unexpected happenings within the office that would put the nation in limelight for wrong reasons. However, the positive aspect here is that the Lord of the 10th house of administration, Jupiter, is exalted in the 2nd house of Cancer. Therefore, despite the poor condition of the King, the administration might survive as a result of a positive direction of someone who might work from the background or potentially may replace the current King.
Aries Ingress 2027
In the Aries Ingress chart for 2027, we see that Leo is rising with the MC in the 10th house of Taurus. So, Venus becomes the significator of the King and Venus is placed in the 7th house of Aquarius. Venus is angular, which is good, but Venus is in conjunction with Rahu which makes the situation a volatile. Saturn, the disposition of Venus is placed in the 9th house of Aries which is the sign of its debilitation.
MC is squared tightly by the Nodes of the Moon and Mars. Although Jupiter is placed in Leo in the 1st house, placed with two malefic planets also afflicts Jupiter. Rahu indicates obsession and Venus indicates pleasure and luxury. There will be a lot of foreign influence, distortions and exaggerations associated with the King or from the King that will impair the smooth functioning of the nation. This is already understood from Mars and Ketu in the 1st house, which indicate violence, aggression and unexpected incidents that might change the course of the nation’s overall direction for the rest of the year. Mars and the Nodes square the MC, which indicates violence against the King or changes in the office of the King that are sudden and unexpected. Venus, the significator of the King is placed in the 7th house with Rahu, but Saturn, ruling Venus is debilitated in the 9th house indicating failure in diplomacy and foreign policy leading to major challenges within the nation and also the nation’s image on the global platform. Medieval astrologers specify that the place from where the in fortunes appect the Lord of the MC or the MC will be the place from which impediment will occur to the King. We have Mars and Ketu in the 1st house and Rahu in the 7th house with the significator of the King, Venus. Therefore, we can understand that the impediment will occur from both inside and outside the country. Since the 7th house represents direct enemies in mundane astrology, the impediment or danger could be from someone who considers the nation as an enemy.
With Mars in the 1st house aspecting Venus, we can understand that there will be a lot of confrontations from the people of the nation and also Jupiter indicates that there will be confrontations from the judicial authorities of the nation. This situation would potentially get heated up giving rise to violence or riots against the leader of the nation. Saturn’s debilitation as the Lord of Venus indicates that the support system of the King is lost and the governance is fractured without structure. These may have come because of rash decisions or these may even lead to rash decisions that could potentially harm the nation. People would be at odds with the leadership!
Will there be a change before the current term ends? Yes, most likely.

Thanks to Lynn Holt for catching a typo in Aries ingress 2026 where it should have been 2nd from the 10th house but I’d written as 11th house. Lynn, very kindly pointed out and I have corrected it.
