🌌✨ Weekly Cosmic Forecast | 18th August – 24th August 2025 ✨🌌
By Dr. Arshad Afzal
🌠 Cosmic Prelude – The Grand Tapestry of the Week
This week, the stars whisper of rebuilding foundations and transforming inner power. The Sun in fiery Leo dances close to Mercury retrograde, demanding that our ego-driven words align with the higher truth. Venus in Virgo emphasizes healing relationships and finances through careful choices, while Saturn in Pisces continues to test faith and spiritual resilience.
On the numerological plane, the vibration of the week aligns with the number 9 (1+8+8+2+0+2+5 = 26 → 2+6 = 8, but the weekly vibration resonates strongly with 9 due to overlapping celestial cycles). This means endings, karmic releases, and soulful completion. Many will feel guided to let go of what no longer serves, and prepare for renewal as September’s doorway opens.
