🗓️ Key Event:
Saturn Retrograde Begins
🗓️ Date: 13th July 2025
🕗 Time: 08:58 hrs IST
♌ Ascendant at Time: Leo (Simha Lagna)
🔭 Why This Moment is Cosmically Explosive:
The retrogression of Saturn is always karmically intense. But on 13th July 2025, it occurs under a rare and hostile planetary alignment. The Leo Lagna rising at the exact time has Mars and Ketu conjunct in the 1st house, with Saturn stationary in the 8th, being aspects by Mars’s powerful 8th aspect.
This is a classical configuration for global chaos, military conflict, civil unrest, mass tragedies, earthquakes, and collapse of governance mechanisms.
🧿 Core Astrological Features:
1. Mars–Ketu in Lagna (Leo):
-
Represents boiling rage, hidden fires, fanaticism, and unrest.
-
Classical indication of riots, strikes, assassinations, explosions, and head-of-state crises.
-
Mirrors events like the Bhopal Gas Tragedy (1984) or Chernobyl (1986).
2. Saturn Stationary in 8th House (Pisces):
-
When Saturn is stationary, it exerts karmic force multipliers.
-
8th house signifies mass death, underground events, earthquakes, hidden forces.
-
Mars’s 8th aspect increases risk of natural disasters, secret warfare, and internal sabotage.
3. Sun + Jupiter in 11th (Rajyoga with Limitations):
-
Form Shivraj Yoga, good for legislations, treaties, and leadership alignment.
-
But its dispositor Mercury in the 12th weakens this yoga — intentions fail, treaties collapse, and losses ensue.
4. Rahu in 7th House (Aquarius):
-
House of wars, foreign policy, and open enemies.
-
Afflicted Rahu = unpredictable strikes, troop movements, betrayal from partners, and border tensions.
5. Venus in 10th House (Career, Government):
-
Afflicted Venus = scandals involving women, fall of famous female figures, or female-targeted violence.
-
Government image dented due to media exposure, personal affairs, or cultural breakdown.
6. Mercury in 12th House:
-
Weak communication and diplomacy.
-
International backdoor deals, espionage, cyber-attacks, and propaganda.
