On June 21, 2025 (U.S. time), and June 22 or 1 Tir 1404 in the Iranian calendar, the United States launched an attack on Iranian nuclear facilities. The U.S. claims Iran’s nuclear program has been destroyed, yet insists it is not at war with Iran. This logic is somewhat puzzling, especially considering that even U.S. intelligence previously asserted Iran did not possess nuclear weapons. The country was attacked despite having already endured an assault from the colonial Zionist regime in Israel, which is currently starving the population in the massive concentration camp that is Gaza and committing widespread massacres of civilians.

What does today’s escalation tell us when examined through the date interpretation technique (Chaldean Numerology) I also used in the numerological analysis of Israel’s attack on Iran?

On Iran’s side, the picture is once again ambiguous. It’s difficult to determine the full consequences today’s events will have on the country. The numbers influencing Iran’s chart on this day, based on Sepharial’s interpretations, are:

>> XI (11): Success in some bold enterprises; courage; decision; energy.
>> XII (12): Reversal of position; culpability; chastisement; loss of honour; danger of violent death; either enforced or voluntary; dangers from women; catastrophe.
>> XIII (13): Ambitions and hopes deceived; destruction; undoing, new beginnings; death; fatality.

The number 11 appears in a stronger than usual position, indicating not just fear, but also aggression, courage, and a strong will to fight. The number 12 points to sacrifice, while the Uranian-solar 13, in today’s context, represents Iran’s nuclear capabilities and the aerial assault against them.

For the United States, the picture is simpler: it’s a strong combination of numbers 13 and 15:

>> XIII (13): Ambitions and hopes deceived; destruction; undoing, new beginnings; death; fatality.
>> XV (15): Fate; the inevitable; dangers to the offsprings and struggles in the marriage state; luxury.

When 15 appears in this kind of combination, it definitely deserves the title “The Devil” (tarot card XV). In personal charts, such a combination doesn’t necessarily imply negative energies—it can also symbolize spiritual development through trials or mistakes. But in mundane numerology, the meaning is darker. Fifteen represents manipulation and speculation, and can also suggest black magic or the influence of dark spiritual forces, harmful individuals, destructive thoughts, crime, suffering etc. In today’s context, 13 again represents air strikes and nuclear facilities.

An event begun on a particular day can trigger a chain reaction. So, what might be the numerological echo of today’s developments? I must emphasize that I’m using a specific technique for interpreting dates. There are other approaches, including astrological ones. Still, I will pursue a narrow interpretation here, while asking you to remain open to the possibility that astrological influences and human awareness could lead to a different outcome.

The Americans are hoping—perhaps naively—that their actions today won’t be interpreted as a declaration of war, and that they won’t be seen as directly involved in the Israeli-Iranian conflict. They are expecting a de-escalation. But Iran, by closing the Strait of Hormuz or the Red Sea, could trigger global shockwaves—and might even strike U.S. military targets.

At first glance, the numbers seem to favor the United States. From a numerological standpoint, the figures influencing the U.S. chart appear more favorable than those affecting Iran. This would suggest it may be wiser for Iran to refrain from a major retaliatory response and focus instead on Israel.

Should Iran respond more forcefully, this will deeply entangle the U.S. in the Middle Eastern conflict. Iran’s aid to the Palestinians is reflected in the number 12, indicating the country has already sacrificed part of its wealth and well-being to help others. In such contexts, 12 can have a more positive meaning—especially if the assistance was offered sincerely. If this proves true, then Iran might not be significantly weakened and the conflict could drag on. Once again, we encounter the same ambiguity that was present in the numerological analysis of the outbreak of the Israeli–Iranian war.

Two further points must be noted about Iran. The numbers 3, 5, and 8—associated with financial matters—emerge, suggesting that Iran could begin receiving substantial aid if the conflict is prolonged. Moreover, Iran’s 12 is strengthened by other numbers that may hint at the sources of such support. In this case, 12 seems to be linked with China (perhaps even Pakistan), and 8 likely points to Russia. Numbers 5 and 6 could even indicate certain forces in the West. There have already been accusations within the U.S. that Trump exceeded his presidential powers by ordering the military action. Should the conflict persist, these voices may grow louder.

We can see that the United States is gambling with its luck. If the situation calms quickly, they may declare victory. If the conflict escalates but no other powers become involved, Israel and the U.S. may succeed in bringing Iran to its knees. But if other nations do step in, then new numerological and astrological factors will come into play. In such a case, the U.S. might emerge from this crisis no longer as the world’s dominant power—neither formally nor de facto. Gambling with 13 and 15 is playing the Devil’s game. The energies of these numbers may boomerang right back at the United States.

In the events of June 12 and June 21–22, we repeatedly see the number 13 (in tarot 13 or XIII is known as the card of “Death”). It is not only the number of nuclear plants, air strikes, and death. It may also indicate the use of missiles containing radioactive material—or even actual nuclear warheads. We are living in a year of wars and at the end of a multi-year numerological cycle of conflicts. This broader cycle ends with this year, making 2025 particularly dangerous.

Now is the time for prayer, spiritual growth, good deeds, and returning to one’s essence. This mostly invisible “front” is vital if we want the world to be flooded with a wave of love and reconciliation.
