3.4 Effects of
Retrograde Planets
Part
1
3.4.1 The
retrogression is contrary to the regular direction of the planets. It is
generally accepted that the favourable influence of a good aspect by a benefic
planet during retrogression is considerably reduced and falls short of its
efficacy in good results, which would otherwise be indicated. When a malefic
planet gets retrograde, its evil effects are increased. Should both the planets-natal
& transit, be retrograde, the things indicated by the aspect would be
deficient or disappointing. When a planet is retrograding, it affects the
matter pertaining to the affairs of the house it rules. If it was retrograde at
birth, it may mean that during this life time, one is dealing with things that
have causes or beginning in one’s previous birth. The effects of a Planet are
usually very strong, when it is stationary upon a natal planet or in aspect to
such. A retrograde planet allows time to view the circumstances impersonally
and decide what to do unaffected by emotions. It represents psychic process
turned inward and not manageable, except with enormous efforts by the conscious
ego. The effects of retrogression on individual planets are discussed in the
succeeding Para.
3.4.2
Retrograde Mercury: The natives with retrograde Mercury in
birth chart tend to think in terms of symbols & insights, rather than facts
& figures. The mind works more easily on the sub-conscious level, hence
their insights into motivations are often uncanny and revealing. Such natives
are amazingly profound, creative, discovering possibilities which are more
direct, obvious, practical mind outlooks. Such natives talk to themselves and
hum little tunes. Mercury is connected with education, literature, intelligence
and astrology. They do not seem to hear other people. They justify their
actions with reasons they grasp after the matter is concluded.
3.4.3
Retrograde Venus: The natives with retrograde Venus do not
find enjoyments in things liked by most people and find it hard to adjust to
outward conditions. In conditions, which require tact & charm, they are
truthful & blunt. The idealistic images of love, sex, marriage, or
childbirth are quite different from these. They tend to be fastidious about
things which others do not consider important. They have generally reverse
thinking & habits than the other people. They are also inclined &
habits than the other people. They are also inclined to unconventional love
expressions, may renounce love for religion, and become quite ceremonious.
3.4.4
Retrograde Mars: When Mars is retrograde in one’s birth
chart, the physical energy & vitality never rise to meet the challenge. It
implies a stubborn, unyielding physical force which does not move until some
physical reason is found for its expression. It is often key to importance
& frigidity, in men & women whose physical forces are not unlocked
until implemented by some non-related idea. Such person often stops in the
middle of a project. They often become good scientists or surgeons. They also
succeed in other occupations which require handling of physical material in an
objective, non-involved way. Such natives frequently rebel against their own
desires, try to stifle them against tremendous odds. Mars is a Karaka for husband in case of ladies, when found retrograde,
the marriage of the lady is delayed.
