June 18, 2025, Birthday Forecast: Discover what the next 12 months hold for you
For those born on June 18, 2025, the upcoming year, influenced by Number 6, emphasizes relationships, financial responsibility, and health. Expect deeper connections, potential relationship shifts, and a focus on emotional well-being. Travel opportunities arise for spiritual growth and self-discovery, while career advancements may involve global collaborations. Prioritize mindful spending and holistic health practices to navigate the year successfully. Happy Birthday 18 June 2025—Know What Numbers Whisper About Your Next 12 Months Happy Birthday! Your birth date has brought you here, so let us have a deep insight into what your numbers hold for you in the upcoming 12 months. Personal year For the next 12 months, you will be under the influence of Number 6, which is ruled by Shukra a Dev. Let us dive into what the next 12 months hold for you Career & Finance This is a good year to plan and get ready if you've been considering moving, especially if the move fits with long-term family planning or job advancement. Be especially careful with reservations, digital tickets, and documentation during Mercury retrograde times, which include April, August, and late November. All things considered, travel this year serves as a reward and a reminder of your true motivations, assisting you in changing your viewpoint and rearranging your priorities. Anticipate increased visibility, particularly if you collaborate with global organizations or communities. You're starting a financial cycle of responsibility and giving. Consulting, speaking, or leadership positions might improve revenue, but they can also increase expenses, particularly when it comes to family, philanthropy, or education. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Giao dịch vàng CFDs với mức chênh lệch giá thấp nhất IC Markets Đăng ký Undo Steer clear of guilt-driven financial entanglements or emotional expenditures. Instead, strive to leave a lasting legacy by prudent investing, restrained charitable giving, and long-term planning. Relationships In terms of your relationships, this year is a time for soul-deep connection, healing, and completeness. If you're single, you might observe a change in your desires—a move away from short-lived flings and toward relationships with deep emotional connections and common values. Through volunteer work, cultural events, or spiritual groups, you can find a companion or rekindle a relationship with a former acquaintance. Around September or October, a fated connection can feel karmic in nature—deep, yet possibly requiring healing and maturation. Don't make snap judgments; take your time. The year challenges you to evaluate the strength and direction of your relationship, if you're already in one. If the emotional resonance has diminished, some couples may decide to become more committed, while others may decide to break up. The adhesive will be forgiveness, open communication, and a common goal. For closure, family dynamics may reappear, especially when they involve elderly relatives or unresolved emotional attachments. Redefining boundaries, letting go of past emotional baggage, and choosing love that respects your journey and feeds your soul are all important this year. Health This year, mind-body balance, spiritual rejuvenation, and emotional control will improve your health. Because of your heightened sensitivity to emotional energy, your body frequently bears the weight of improperly processed emotions. If you overlook emotional self-care this year, you may have stress-related problems like exhaustion, immunological sensitivity, sleep disruptions, or hormone abnormalities. Establishing holistic practices that promote your mental and physical balance, such journaling, acupuncture, meditation, or breathwork, is best done in the first half of the year. Pay great attention to your body's cues between August and October, particularly those pertaining to your digestive and neurological systems. Make anti-inflammatory meal choices and drink plenty of water. If you've been avoiding inner suffering, think about energy medicine, somatic practice, or therapy since emotional healing will enhance physical life. You can let go of pent-up emotions by engaging in expressive and rhythmic movement exercises, such as martial arts, dance, or swimming. Prioritize relaxation and alone time; allowing yourself to occasionally withdraw from overstimulating situations is the greatest way to replenish your energy. Travel In the upcoming year, travel presents chances for spiritual development, emotional resolution, and artistic inspiration. You can be drawn to areas that have special meaning for you, such as ancestral grounds, places of worship, or places from your past that encourage introspection and relaxation. Travel for educational, service, or healing purposes—such as going to a retreat, volunteering overseas, or going on a spiritual pilgrimage—may take place between May and September. These travels will focus on integration rather than escape. You can rediscover aspects of yourself that were forgotten, unspoken, or unacknowledged through travel. Particularly effective months for deep solitary travel or journeys with like-minded individuals are September and December. If you've been considering moving or remaining in a foreign city or country for a long time, this year gives you the information and emotional readiness to move forward. Mercury retrogrades in April, August, and November require cautious planning; review your documentation, be flexible, and provide extra time. Ultimately, this year's trip will be a sacred stop, expanding your horizons and fortifying your relationship with yourself. You Share Your Birthday With Avanthika Mohan, K. S.

PM Modi's Zagreb Trip Marks A Diplomatic Milestone For India-Croatia Ties, Why It Matters
Last Updated: PM Modi's Croatia visit aims to strengthen bilateral relations, focusing on trade, defense, culture, and academic exchanges Prime Minister Narendra Modi will visit Croatia on Wednesday, marking the first-ever visit by an Indian Prime Minister to the Central and Southeast European nation. With a population of around 3.8 million, Croatia is a member of both the European Union and NATO. The visit is being seen as a significant milestone in bilateral relations, underlining India's deepening engagement with Europe. PM Modi will travel to Croatia at the invitation of Croatian Prime Minister Andrej Plenković. During his visit, he is scheduled to hold bilateral discussions with Prime Minister Plenković and also meet Croatian President Zoran Milanović. According to the Ministry of External Affairs (MEA), the visit reflects India's commitment to further strengthening its partnerships with European nations. The two leaders had earlier met on the sidelines of the COP26 climate conference in Glasgow in November 2021 and at the India-EU leaders' meeting in May 2021. Trade & Investments Bilateral trade between India and Croatia currently stands at USD 300 million. Indian investments in Croatia amount to USD 48 million, while Croatian investments in India stand at around USD 6 million, as per the MEA. Croatian companies such as Infobip, Končar, and Altpro are active in India, while Indian companies like Infosys, Cipla, and Orient Green Power have established operations in Croatia. The two countries have also been expanding cooperation in innovation and startups. The India-Croatia Startup Bridge was launched in December 2021, and a 50-day India-Croatia Startup Challenge was organised in April 2022. Cultural & People-To-People Ties Cultural and people-to-people ties between India and Croatia are long-standing and diverse. Around 17,200 Indian nationals currently reside in Croatia. Historical connections can be traced back to the 16th century, with the Church of São Braz in Goa reportedly built by Croatians in 1563. Croatian Indologist Ivan Filip Vezdin is credited with publishing the first Sanskrit grammar in 1790, and a commemorative plaque in his honour was unveiled in Thiruvananthapuram in 1999. In 2024, Croatia celebrated International Yoga Day with 65 events held across the country, underscoring the growing interest in Indian culture. Tourism is another area of cooperation, with an MoU signed between India's Ministry of Tourism and its Croatian counterpart in 2019. Sports has also emerged as an important area of collaboration. In 2019, Croatian football legend Igor Štimac was appointed head coach of the Indian national football team. A separate MoU was signed between India's Sports Authority of India and the Faculty of Kinesiology at the University of Zagreb, further strengthening ties in sports education and training. Academic exchanges have contributed significantly to building stronger relations. In 2019, an MoU was signed to establish an ICCR Sanskrit Chair at the University of Zagreb, which has maintained a Department of Indology for more than six decades. Various academic partnerships and exchanges have been launched to enhance cooperation in education and research, creating deeper people-to-people connections between the two nations.
