As the geopolitical climate in 2025 grows increasingly tense, astrology once again provides profound insight into potential global flashpoints. From the Middle East to South Asia, the period between June 7 and July 28, 2025, carries dangerous planetary alignments echoing the conditions prior to World War I (July 28, 1914).
The Mars–Ketu conjunction in Leo, forming during this period, is not merely a celestial coincidence — it mirrors the same volatile cosmic conditions that have historically marked the eruption of wars and revolutions like WW1. As tensions simmer between Israel–Iran, India–Pakistan, NATO–Russia, and U.S.–China, the stars warn of a potential domino effect of military escalations.
Astrological Parameters Signalling a Global Tipping Point (June 7 – July 28, 2025):
1. Mars–Ketu Conjunction in Leo (Simha Rashi):
- Mars (war) conjoins Ketu (headless, karmic energy) in Leo — the sign of leadership, military pride, and dramatic assertion.
- A similar conjunction occurred in 1914, just before World War I erupted.
- This leads to covert military action, betrayal, or unexpected strikes.
2. Lunation Chart of June 11, 2025:
- New Moon in Scorpio and in Jyestha star is considered most malefic star since ferocious & bitter for Wars and also virus spread and strategic warfare.
- The lunation activates secret planning and military buildup.
- Venus, ruler of Taurus and Libra in the 8th house in Aries sign — symbolizing broken diplomacy and emotional misjudgement
-
Despite the grim scenario, Sun and Moon are in Lunar signs, signifying India (Defender) has an upper hand. The aggressor may strike again, but the retaliation will be forceful and decisive. Astrological signals favour India’s tactical and moral victory in this phase of conflict.
🌑 Lunation Chart – 11th June 2025, 13:14 hrs IST
Ascendant: Virgo
Moon (Lunation) placed in 3rd house, debilitated, under Mars’s 4th aspect from the 12th house (with Ketu) – classic markers of border conflict and terror attacks. China, Pakistan and Bangladesh are enemies of India. My Fear China may help Pakistan to Attack IndiaNow Let us see what the Lunation chart of the 11th June 2025 has up it’s sleeves ?
Malefic Concentration:
-
Mars–Ketu in 12th → foreign spies, terrorism, sabotage. Both in Fiery navamshas
-
Rahu in 6th (afflicted) → violence, military strife, epidemics, sudden attacks.
-
Saturn in 7th, as 6th lord having aspect of Mars→ foreign relations deteriorate; potential scandals, trade shocks.
-
Afflicted Moon in 3rd → rail/air mishaps, border skirmishes. Attacks by enemies as stated above
-
Sun–Moon both afflicted → symbolic of state instability, threats to national security. There may be loss of lives.
-
D8 Chart (Ashtamsha): Affliction to Sun–Moon by Rahu-Ketu–Mars → natural or manmade disasters causing loss of life. It shows Fierce Fighting between India and Neighbouring Countries.

Mars-Ketu Conjunction 2025: Mirroring WW1 in July 1914. The vedha between Mars and Saturn—— Explosions, Wars , Virus spread, Bloodshed on Earth
The Mars-Ketu conjunction in Leo from June 7 to July 28, 2025, is a significant astrological event that bears striking similarities to the planetary alignments at the outbreak of World War 1 on July 28, 1914. This conjunction, combined with other critical planetary transits, suggests heightened geopolitical tensions, military escalations, and potential large-scale conflicts.

🪔 Mars–Ketu Conjunction: War Drums Echo WW1
From June 7 to July 28, 2025, Mars–Ketu conjoin in Leo — reminiscent of the July 1914 WW1 planetary alignments. This explosive combination activates:
Historical parallels suggest this is a time of heightened military aggression, strategic deception, and possibly large-scale retaliatory action.

3. Saturn Retrograde in Pisces (from July 13):
- Saturn rules restriction, fear, and karma; its retrogression in Pisces activates the 8th house from many global charts, bringing underground or sudden events.
- Parallel to the 1947–48 and 1965 retrogressions during the India–Pakistan wars.
4. Jupiter Acceleration and Rahu Affliction:
- Jupiter accelerates through Taurus — increasing financial, political, and religious unrest.
- Rahu remains in Pisces, afflicted by Saturn’s full aspect and Mars’s indirect influence.
- This combination is known in Jyotish texts as part of the “Durbhiksha Yoga” — linked to famine, wars, and epidemics.
5. Eclipse Point Activation by Mars (March 29 Eclipse):
- Mars activates the March 29, 2025, solar eclipse point, triggering delayed explosive outcomes on the 2-3rd July 2025
6. Multiple Wars and Brawls Possible:
- Israel–Iran: Military strike on Iranian nuclear sites possible in this window, with June 11–25 being most sensitive.
- India–Pakistan: Cross-border skirmishes, covert operations, or full military posturing are highly probable.
- Russia–Ukraine/NATO, U.S.–China (Taiwan/South China Sea), Iran–U.S.: Confrontations may amplify.
Historical Parallels: World War I and 2025
The planetary setup — especially Mars–Ketu in fiery Leo — was seen during July 1914 when World War I broke out. Add Saturn retrograde and a combust Venus, and we have a mirror image of that fateful period.
Conclusion
The stars speak of a high-risk period from June 7 to July 28, 2025, with the fortnight from June 11 (New Moon) being particularly critical. It is not just a regional flare-up we should be worried about, but a global chain reaction involving multiple powers.
These alignments suggest that spiritual restraint, diplomatic caution, and national preparedness are urgently needed. As astrologers and observers, we must stay vigilant and guide others through these turbulent cosmic waters.
