“Whatever the mind can conceive and believe, it can achieve.” – Napoleon Hill
Russia’s call to revive a troika with China and India is unlikely to be greeted with enthusiasm by New Delhi, with critics pointing to tense border stand-offs and India’s reluctance to be seen as part of an “anti-West” grouping. Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov earlier this month lauded Moscow’s bilateral ties with Delhi and Beijing, calling for the revival of the Russia-India-China (RIC) trialogue.
The Davison Relationship Chart (DRC) for India and China, calculated from their independence/founding dates, serves as a powerful tool for viewing the "birth" and evolving dynamics of their bilateral relationship as an entity in its own right.

.The solar arc directions listed show a sequence of activations by the directed Sun in late Scorpio squaring points in Leo (including Saturn and Lachesis in 2023), pointing to periods of restriction, karmic reckonings, and the need for practical reassessment rather than emotional indulgence. The upcoming conjunction of directed Sun to Nemesis in early Sagittarius by January 2028 suggests a longer-term theme of confronting "nemesis" or inevitable consequences in the relationship's path. Particularly striking is the directed Sun square radix Saturn (around 2023, but its influence lingers as a process), which aligns with the interpretation: a "serious moment" where practicality dominates, doors close (perhaps on old patterns of engagement), and new ones must open through discipline and realism.
Adding Martha Wescott's insights on Lachesis/Nemesis (calling a "time out" to scrutinize why things are unfolding as they are, expecting disruptions) and Eros/Saturn (over-compensation
for some perception of inadequacy by being "big hearted") paints a picture of a relationship that periodically hits walls of perceived limitations, requiring breaks for reevaluation amid underlying attractions
or compulsions. The February 17, 2026, annular solar eclipse at approximately 28°50' Aquarius falls directly opposite the radix Saturn at 28° Leo in this DRC. Eclipses opposite Saturn often manifest as culminations
or crises in structures, responsibilities, and boundaries—here, in the context of the Davison chart, it could activate the entire Sun-Saturn square dynamic from prior directions. This opposition emphasizes opposition
itself: India and China facing off over borders, influence, or alliances, forcing a confrontation with limitations (Saturn) in a forward-looking, innovative Aquarian context.The Sabian symbol for the eclipse Aquarius 29°—"A
butterfly emerging from a chrysalis"—beautifully captures the potential: radical transformation through breaking free from old structural patterns (the chrysalis as rigid Saturnian constraints) and altering everyday
living/relationships. It suggests the eclipse could catalyze a profound shift in how India-China ties are structured—perhaps emerging into a new phase of consciousness, less encumbered by past rigidities, if both can
allow the "metamorphosis" rather than resisting it. Geopolitically, this ties in intriguingly with Russia's push (via Lavrov in early 2025 and ongoing into 2026) to revive the Russia-India-China (RIC) troika.
The proposal aims to reactivate a format dormant since around 2021, positioning it as foundational to BRICS and multipolarity. Russia highlights eased border tensions between India and China as a window for resumption, with
some diplomatic signaling from India (e.g., "mutually convenient manner") showing tentative openness rather than outright rejection. However, India's reluctance persists due to unresolved border stand-offs (e.g.,
Ladakh), strategic autonomy priorities, and aversion to any "anti-West" framing amid its Quad ties and Western engagements. Critics see limited enthusiasm for a grouping that might dilute India's independence
or force alignment.
Astrologically, the eclipse opposing Saturn in the DRC could symbolize exactly this crossroads: a potential "emergence" from the chrysalis of prolonged tension into something more
adaptive and collectively oriented (Aquarius), perhaps via multilateral forums like RIC—if practicality prevails over old grudges. Yet Saturn demands realism; without addressing core limitations (border security, trust
deficits), the transformation might manifest as forced separation or reinforced boundaries rather than harmonious evolution.Overall, there is a genuine window around mid-February 2026 for pivotal change in India-China dynamics—potentially
a "butterfly moment" of reinvention, amplified by the eclipse. Whether it leads to thawed relations, renewed RIC activity, or instead a clearer acknowledgment that certain structures must end for new ones to begin
remains to be seen. The process is understood by not obsessing over exact hits but watching unfolding themes.
Uranus in Taurus stationing direct (Feb 4) square Saturn innovates around values, resources, stability, and material security—themes central to India-China tensions (trade dependencies,
border resources, economic competition). The station direct amplifies breakthroughs after retrograde introspection, pushing sudden releases or awakenings. The Sabian symbol of the station puts an emphasis on transcending
"biological limitations" (aging/outdated patterns, instinctual survival fears, fixed national "bodies") through renewed feeling/vitality is striking: it hints at the relationship breaking free from entrenched
post-2020 rigidities (the "change of life" as a metaphor for post-Galwan maturity or exhaustion of old adversarial modes) toward unexpected openness or "new love"—a fresh relational configuration,
perhaps pragmatic affection born of necessity rather than romance.
Layering these onto the eclipse activation:The February 17, 2026, annular solar eclipse at 28°50' Aquarius directly opposes radix Saturn at 28° Leo, while Uranus's station on Feb 4 will have electrified the square from Taurus. This creates a fixed-sign T-square dynamic (Taurus-Uranus → Leo-Saturn ← Aquarius eclipse), shaking the relationship's foundations (Saturn) with innovative shocks (Uranus) and culminating in Aquarian detachment/reinvention (eclipse).The mermaid (Saturn symbol) finally steps onto land—conscious thought crystallizes from intuition.
Uranus's "new love" post-change-of-life injects radical permission to feel differently, beyond old biological/national survival scripts.
The eclipse's butterfly emerging from chrysalis completes the metamorphosis: the relationship sheds its chrysalis of prolonged standoffs, rigid expectations, and unconscious fears.
Geopolitically, as of early February 2026, India-China relations show tangible signs of this unfolding process. Border patrol agreements from late 2024 have led to disengagements, resumed direct flights after years, high-level meetings (Modi-Xi in 2024-2025), and discussions on easing investment curbs (e.g., India planning to lift restrictions on Chinese firms in government contracts). Xi's Republic Day greetings emphasized "friends, partners," and broader stabilization efforts continue amid dual-track diplomacy (boundary talks alongside economic/people-to-people ties). Russia's push for RIC revival persists but faces India's caution—yet the timing aligns with potential for pragmatic multilateralism if borders stabilize further.
