Astrological Forecast Warns of Turbulent Weeks for Israel Before Elections

An astrological analysis says Israel is entering a highly volatile period in the weeks leading up to the elections, with political, security, and social tensions all potentially intensifying at once. The piece argues that a rare alignment of planets could produce major public developments, while stressing that astrology is only a way to read trends, not to determine fate.

The forecast says the danger begins on June 28, when Mars enters the same sign as Uranus, a combination described as especially explosive. It cites past Israeli military events that supposedly occurred during similar aspects, including Operation "Kalvia" and Operation "Roaring Lion," while noting that the ceasefire on April 8 happened under a more harmonious angle. The peak is expected on July 3 and 4, when Mars and Uranus form an exact conjunction in Gemini, with July 4, U.S. Independence Day, singled out as particularly charged.

Another key date is June 29, when Mercury begins its retrograde, which the analysis says can complicate negotiations. It warns this may particularly hinder the difficult talks on a permanent agreement between the United States and Iran. On June 30, a full moon together with Jupiter's entry into Leo is presented as another sign of possible major change and heightened security tension with Iran afterward.

Domestically, the analysis says the northern front and the standoff with Hezbollah could directly affect the stability of the coalition in Jerusalem. It also says tensions within Israeli society are rising, especially for the ultra-Orthodox camp, which is facing existential questions about identity and status, while recent protests, including a protest involving ultra-Orthodox cars, are described as only the beginning of a deeper internal reckoning.
