Priyanka takes centre stage
However, too much dependence on her in the UP election campaign may prove to be an expensive blunder for the Congress party.
Priyanka Gandhi
Date of Birth: January 12, 1972
Time of Birth: 05.05 pm (Unconfirmed)
Place of Birth: Delhi, India
Priyanka Gandhi has often played the role of a star campaigner in some of the most important battles that the Congress party has fought. While many supporters of the Congress see an ‘Indira’ in her, some loyalists feel that she is more competent and efficient than her brother and the current Vice President of the party — Rahul Gandhi. With her unconventional ways and the ‘beti’ card, over the years she has managed to positively influence voters in favour of her party. There have been a lot of controversies, but she has managed to sail through them all. The upcoming UP elections will test her efficacy as the ‘trump card’ or ‘last bet’ of the Congress party. There are a lot of expectations from her and it remains to be seen if she matches up or not.
The fundamentals
Priyanka is born with Gemini ascendant. Jupiter, which happens to be the Lord of the 10th house and 7th house, is placed in the 7th house, in conjunction with the Lord of the ascendant. As Jupiter is placed in its own Sign, and that too in a kendra position, it forms the auspicious hamsa yoga — one of the panch mahapurusha raja yogas. These factors indicate that she is a highly spontaneous and dynamic individual who can take excellent decisions.
The Sun — a strong support
The Sun happens to be the planet which represents politics, and is the aatmakaraka planet in her chart, rendering more power to Jupiter and Mercury in the 7th house. All these factors show a very bright picture and indicate that Priyanka has the skill to achieve big things. Moreover, she will be able to strongly influence the voters as she has a strong 7th house.
Venus bestows fortune
Venus — the Lord of the 5th house is placed in the 9th house and the Lord of the 9th house — Saturn is aspecting it. This shows that she has the tremendous support of fortune and this will help her in crucial situations. A well-disposed Venus also indicates a charismatic personality.
The current scenario
Priyanka is passing through the Venus mahadasha and Saturn antardasha. This is a favourable dasha sequence and will help her to create a positive impact on the mindset of the voters in the electoral battleground of Uttar Pradesh. The stars indicate that she will play a prominent role in the UP election.
Congress’ trump card
Her ability to strike a chord with the masses will help her party and the alliance with the Samajwadi Party during the upcoming assembly elections in UP. The powerful 7th house effect in her chart will propel her towards an important position and help her party get better mileage.
The worrisome aspect
Priyanka is also passing through the ‘sade-sati’ and transiting Saturn will be influencing the natal Sun during the elections in UP. It indicates that she will face problems in implementing her plans and policies. The results of her efforts will not meet the expectations. Some unexpected problems or hurdles are foreseen, which may upset the momentum.
Nevertheless, Ganesha feel that her presence will boost the chances of the Congress party in UP during these elections.
