In the politics of Bihar for the last several decades, around which the entire power revolved around one name, today a new and historic turn has come in that chapter. The discussion of Chief Minister Nitish Kumar going to Rajya Sabha is no longer limited to mere speculations, but today on March 5, 2026, he has officially filed his nomination.
This incident has taken the political stir to its peak from Boring Road of Patna to Lutyens Zone of Delhi. This change is not just a change in the post of one person, but behind it there are serious questions related to the power structure of Bihar, the future of the alliance and the political direction of the coming years, which are now standing in front as a reality.
Union Home Minister Amit Shah, while welcoming Nitish Kumar on this occasion, has made it clear that he is now entering national politics. Shah praised his ‘spotless’ governance and his contribution in bringing Bihar out of ‘jungle raj’. Political analysts are considering this as a well-thought-out strategy of the alliance, but if these events are read deeply from the astrological point of view, then it is understood that this period is the beginning of a big ‘transition period’ for Bihar.
Nitish Kumar’s birth chart: invisible signs of planets
If we put together Nitish Kumar’s horoscope available on the internet, his current planetary position and today’s latest political developments, it becomes clear that his role is now going to go beyond the state boundaries and become nationwide. Nitish Kumar’s birth details as per astrological calculations:
- Date of Birth: 1 March 1951
- Birth Time: Around 1:30 PM
- Place of Birth: Bakhtiyarpur, Patna, Bihar
In his horoscope, Gemini ascendant is formed and the Moon is situated in Scorpio. The most influential center of his horoscope is the 9th house (place of luck) where Aquarius is, here Sun, Mercury, Jupiter and Rahu are placed together. It is this rare planetary group that makes him an extraordinary politician. This is the reason why he remains influential even amidst discussions regarding health, the reason is clearly that his luck is very strong.
Chaturgrahi Yoga in Bhagya Bhava: ‘Surya Guru Sambandhe Rajyalabh’
In the horoscope of Gemini ascendant, Aquarius is the ninth house (house of luck). The ninth house is considered to be the place of luck, high policy, religion and supreme institutions.
When powerful planets like Sun, Jupiter and Mercury sit together here, the person’s life becomes linked with the top echelons of administration and power. There is a clear mention of this situation in Brihat Parashar Hora Shastra:
‘Surya Guru Sambandhe Rajyalabh.’
That is, this relationship between Sun and Jupiter continuously keeps the person in the center of political position and power. The presence of Rahu here makes this yoga even more mysterious. Rahu creates a personality in politics who moves away from the traditional path and paves the way to power even in difficult situations. This ‘Rahu element’ is clearly visible in the political decisions of Nitish Kumar in the last 20 years.
Rahu Mahadasha (2011-2029): A period of change
Nitish Kumar is currently under the influence of Rahu’s Mahadasha, which is going to last till 2029. In astrology, Rahu is considered the lord of sudden changes, strategic moves and unexpected turns. According to Phaldeepika: ‘Rahuh Janamushyam Pratisthan Dadati.’
Rahu gives immense prestige to the person among the people and sometimes brings success through unusual paths. In politics, this period of Rahu is often the time of major change of power or change of role. Today his filing of nomination for Rajya Sabha is the culmination of this Rahu’s influence, where an experienced leader is leaving the reins of direct power and coming to Delhi in the role of strategic and guide.
Scorpio Moon and the influence of ‘Neech’: The power of sudden decisions
In Nitish Kumar’s horoscope, Moon is in Scorpio, which is called ‘Neech Chandra’ in Parashari astrology. In the Brihat Parashar Hora scripture, it is written about its nature: ‘Neechesthe Chandra Chittachanchalta.’
From a political point of view, this ‘playfulness’ enables a person to take sudden and drastic decisions as per the circumstances. Analysts often could not understand his decisions in Bihar politics, but those decisions always proved to turn the equations of power in his favor. Today’s nomination is also part of the same series.
Immediate effects on the power of Bihar
With Nitish Kumar’s entry into national politics, three new dimensions of power are going to open in Bihar:
- New face of leadership: Now there will be a consensus within the NDA on a new face for the post of Chief Minister. The senior leader taking on the role of guide is like giving way to the next generation of the alliance.
- Rise of BJP: Welcoming Home Minister Amit Shah with an open heart is an indication that the BJP is now ready to play a more active leadership role in Bihar.
- Opposition’s challenge: With Nitish Kumar going to Delhi, the opposition will have to prepare its entire strategy again, because now they will have a changed political structure.
Shapath Muhurat and future of 2027
When the present government of Bihar was formed on 20 November 2025, the Capricorn ascendant was rising. In astrology, Capricorn ascendant gives administrative stability, but the gathering of planets in the 11th house has been indicating constant pressure and tug of war within the alliance.
The movement of the planets suggests that the time of 2027 will be even more decisive for Bihar. When the influence of Sun and Saturn becomes active during the Mahadasha of Rahu, then a new and completely different power structure will emerge in Bihar.
No end, a grand expanse
Nitish Kumar’s horoscope and today’s nomination make it clear that his politics is not ending, rather his role is expanding. The chair may change, but the real power remains the same which gives rise to equations. As Amit Shah said today, ‘Nitish Kumar is now coming into national politics, it is a sign that the voice of Bihar is going to become more vocal in the court of Delhi.
The politics of Bihar will take many turns in the coming years, but the pivot of this great change will be those who are now going to render their services in the policy making of the country through the Rajya Sabha.
