In the PRC-foundation Vedic Horoscope, Mars is placed in the 7th H. Mars is the ruler of the 4th H and 11th H and placed in the 7th H.

China uses the threat of war and often provokes disputes with other countries to gain more LAND and CREATES more opportunities of TRADE for itself. This Mars is seeing (Vedic Aspecting) the 10th H and 1st H – the Chinese leadership has a constant war-mongering  tendencies.

Mars is also seeing the 2nd H – Mars as 11th L, sitting in the 7th H and seeing the 2nd H – this is a great interconnection of houses in China’s horoscope that hints that China will mostly gain from all its foreign bilateral engagements.

Mars is debilitated in Cancer in the 7th H – a debilitated  planet may choose to behave in an abased manner. 

China is known to betray its friends. It uses all kinds of tactics to extract maximum opportunistic  gain from its every partner country. In Africa, and also in Pakistan, China is very much behaving like a European colonial power countries in 18th and 19th Century. China is gone to these areas for trade and business and is now acquiring land and ports (Mars is 4th L) in a big way. China lured Sri Lanka into taking huge loans from itself, and when it became difficult for Sri Lanka to pay-off the loan, China manipulated Sri Lanka into giving away an important sea-port.

With India, Vietnam, Taiwan and few other neighbors… China always begin by claiming its sovereignty over a part of land belonging to the other country, then it starts using all kinds of pressure game including the threat of war, its army will suddenly become aggressive on the boarder and occupy a few kilometers of the land of the neighboring country, and then it will unilaterally announce cease-fire and will start sending diplomatic signals to the country whose small piece of land it just acquired – why? – China also does not want to go into a full scale war (at least now), and it keeps slicing small pieces of lands of the other countries, then in order to make the new reality a status-quo it starts talking peace and displomacy, the other country is lured into coming to the discussion table and the land grabbed by China is gone forever.

Things have been going well for China till now. But from October 2019 onwards China has started the Mercury main period. Mercury is retrograde and combust. Mercury is squeezed between Sun and Ketu. So now the next 17 years is not going to be that good for China. It may see mass-deaths due to epidemics (Mercury is conjunct with 8th L Sun) and war. Its trade and business will also go down. Some of its leaders my suddenly die leaving a vacuum. And this is also not a good time for the China’s geographical integrity. If China goes into economic recession, it will not be easy for the ruling-regime to suppress its inner contradictions and discontent of the general Chinese population. China may even break into few parts like former USSR.
