Sudden head pressure/blood rush during Chakrasana, what could cause this?

I’ve been practicing yoga in a class for about a month and have done Chakrasana before without any issues.

Today, while doing the progression where you walk your hands down a wall into Chakrasana, I suddenly felt a very intense rush of blood/pressure in my head. It was noticeably stronger than anything I’d experienced during the earlier wall exercises.

It went away after coming out of the pose, but it honestly caught me off guard.

Has anyone experienced something similar during Chakrasana or deep backbends? What could cause this to suddenly happen even if I’ve done the pose before without any issue? Curious if it’s related to the inversion/head position, breathing, blood pressure, or something else.

Met an astrologer in Vrindavan randomly, we were both buying 📿 mala, started speaking learnt he was an astrologer and that led to him checking my chart. Brother told me to go for an arrange marriage. I have never had a problem finding someone for myself and never thought arrange marriage would be for me. But I don’t mind it either. How do y’all look at this?
