Mars’ devastating impact on Middle East war
According to Vedic astrology, Aries is a fire element, whose lord is Mars – which is considered to be the planet responsible for war, military power, aggression and conflict. Currently, Mars is situated in its own zodiac sign Aries, due to which its influence has increased even more; This increased energy can provoke destructive events and violence in the current situation. When Mars is strong, it usually indicates increased tension on the borders, an uptick in military activities, and sharpness in political rhetoric.
Effect of Venus on Oil and Gas
