I am Jyotish Acharya Anil Aggarwala, an Engineer by profession who turned to astrology after being deeply inspired by its accuracy in my own life. I pursued Jyotish Alankar and Jyotish Acharya three times at Bharatiya Vidya Bhavan, New Delhi between 2007 and 2012, studied under the guidance of Shri K. N. Rao, and later under Pandit S. Ganesh for South Indian techniques. In 2012, I was awarded the Saroj Memorial Award for best research in astrology by Bharatiya Vidya Bhavan. Unlike traditional astrologers, I employ seven advanced modules—Shakun & Omens, Ashtakavarga, Nakshatra Sanghatta Chakra, Grah Yudh, Prashna Jyotish, Transit overlays, and Dasha progression—to predict events with precision.
The Washington Meeting and Its Timing
On 18th August 2025, U.S. President Donald Trump and Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky are scheduled to meet in Washington following the Alaska summit between Trump and Putin. While there is hope for a breakthrough toward peace, the cosmic canvas suggests otherwise.
The Lunation Chart of 9th August 2025
The Lunation Chart of 9th August 2025 is the most crucial backdrop for all short-term predictions in this fortnight. It carries the following powerful negative parameters:
-
Samsaptak Yoga: Mars in Virgo and Saturn retrograde in Pisces at exact opposition of 7°—an alignment linked to stalemates, hostility, and bloodshed.
-
Bloodshed Yoga: Venus and Jupiter conjoined in Gemini around 20°, a configuration often producing conflict escalation and betrayals.
-
Mars–Saturn -Ketu Veda with affliction in Nakshatra Sanghatta Chakra.
-
Durbhiksha Yoga: Saturn retrograde and Jupiter in accelerated motion, active from 13th July to 28th November 2025, warning of hardship, famine-like conditions, and economic instability.
This Lunation chart sets the stage for an extremely volatile fortnight in geopolitics, diplomacy, and markets.
Planetary Positions on 18th August 2025
When the Washington meeting takes place, the day’s parameters are even more inauspicious:
-
Moon waning in Taurus, afflicted by the aspect of retrograde Saturn from Pisces, showing weakened emotional stability and lack of balanced judgment.
-
Day Lord: Moon — when the Day Lord itself is afflicted, the day cannot deliver constructive results.
-
Sun conjunct Ketu in Leo — ego clashes, hidden concessions, and weakening of leadership strength.
-
Samsaptak Yoga still active (Mars in Virgo opposing Saturn retrograde in Pisces), not allowing any ultimate truce between Ukraine and Russia.
-
Karna: Vishti (Bhadra Karna) — a highly malefic parameter indicating obstacles, conflicts, and non-fructification of endeavors.
Astrological Forecast for the Meeting
-
The meeting is unlikely to yield any conducive or lasting results.
-
The afflicted waning Moon, Vishti Karna, and the background of the malefic Lunation chart combine to ensure agreements, if made, will be unstable or forced.
-
Zelensky may face pressure to agree to certain Russian demands, but the Samsaptak Yoga ensures the war dynamic continues.
-
The stars do not support a permanent truce — instead, they highlight continued turbulence, hidden compromises, and fragile announcements.
Conclusion
While the diplomatic world anticipates breakthroughs in Washington on 18th August 2025, the astrological picture clearly warns of disappointment. With the Lunation Chart of 9th August already malefic, and the day parameters on 18th August—waning Moon, afflicted Day Lord Moon, Sun with Ketu, and Vishti Karna—all hostile, the stars strongly suggest no fruitful outcome.
This meeting may produce rhetoric of peace but will not resolve the underlying conflict. The heavens indicate turbulence, concessions under pressure, and continued deadlock, proving once again that cosmic alignments reflect the fate of nations.
There can only be one solution to the Brawl between Ukraine and Russia. Zelensky has to come on his knees and beg Russia for a cease fire

tabular comparison of the Lunation Chart of 9th August 2025 and the Meeting Chart of 18th August 2025 that clearly shows why both are malefic and not supportive of peace.
Astrological Comparison: Lunation Chart vs. Meeting Chart
| Parameter | 9th August 2025 – Lunation Chart | 18th August 2025 – Trump–Zelensky Meeting Chart | Interpretation |
|---|---|---|---|
| Moon | New Moon chart with afflictions in transit; unstable foundation for fortnight | Waning Moon in Taurus afflicted by retrograde Saturn’s aspect | Emotional weakness, instability, failure to sustain agreements |
| Day Lord | Sun with affliction (Venus–Jupiter conflict in Gemini background) | Moon as Day Lord, but afflicted — highly inauspicious | Leadership and decision-making weakened |
| Saturn | Retrograde in Pisces, 1/7 samsaptak relation with Mars Yoga | Retrograde Saturn still afflicting Moon in Taurus | Long-term deadlock, inability to resolve |
| Mars | Mars in Virgo opposing Saturn in Pisces at exact 7° — Samsaptak Yoga | Same opposition active on 18th August | Conflicts, hostility, aggression prevent truce |
| Jupiter & Venus | Conjunction in Gemini ~20° — Bloodshed Yoga | Still operative in background | Diplomatic betrayals, hidden tensions |
| Sun & Ketu | Sun nearing affliction point | Sun conjunct Ketu in Leo on 18th August | Ego clashes, forced concessions, lack of clarity |
| Special Yoga | Durbhiksha Yoga (Saturn retrograde + Jupiter accelerated) active July–Nov 2025 | Continues during meeting | Economic + diplomatic hardship period |
| Karna | Not favorable due to new moon timing | Vishti (Bhadra Karna) — most malefic | Obstacles, failures, non-fructification |
| Overall Tone | Sets a volatile fortnight with malefic combinations | Meeting held under same inauspicious canvas | No fruitful outcome; concessions forced, not genuine |
Key Takeaway
Both charts are malefic and hostile.
-
The 9th August Lunation Chart sets the background for volatility and failed diplomacy for the fortnight.
-
The 18th August meeting chart reinforces this, with waning afflicted Moon, Day Lord Moon under Saturn’s gaze, Sun–Ketu conjunction, Samsaptak Yoga, and Vishti Karna.
Together, they indicate no durable truce, only forced compromises, with Zelensky likely pressured into agreeing to Putin’s terms but without stability.
