RETROGRADE PLANETS VEDIC ASTROLOGY(general rule)(part 1)

All planets move in a defined orbit .But sometime to us on earth they appear to move backward.at the time of birth if a planet have apparent backward movement we say that planet is retrograding in natal chart .only mercury,Venus,mars ,Jupiter and Saturn show this effect.rahu and ketu always have retrograding motion.moon and sun never retrograde. before i apply the concept of retrograding(vakri) planet for prediction let me sum up basic theory about it in point wise manner.

1.rahu and ketu always have retrograding motion. but sometime during its motion .they appear standstill from earth or in plain word they appear stationary.we generally denote this effect by placing (S) in horoscope..stationary malefic in natal chart or in transit is extremely harmful.during goacher they trigger major misfortune .
2.so in general whenever rahu and ketu become stationary they will trigger misfortune in accordance to its house where it is placed in birth horoscope,the house where it is transiting(goacher) or natural significator of its nakshatra lord..means if rahu is in sarvan nakshtra whose lord is moon. it can give pain to mother, metal worries etc,as moon is karka of mother,mental peace etc..

3.as rahu always retrogrades what part of its nature is due to the phenomena of retrogression.this will help us to understand intrinsic meaning of retro planets.it store the karmic life of past and accordingly influence the inner thinking to achieve the tangible result.what is karmic? anything that happens in our life without our conscious effort. rahu execute karmic Justice by influencing our inner thinking for good or bad..if rahu wants accident.it may first initiate a desire for bike and then that bike will become cause of that accident..
4. all plants radiates energy or they are like vibration.that why with the help of matra we correct that vibration.the energy of direct planets are outward,while that of the retro planets are inward.when mars is direct we compete with others when mars is retro we compete with our self.in other words retro planets influence our thinking and inner world. retro plants are also linked to unfulfilled karmic obligations or desire of past life.
5. the effect of retro planets on personality and most often it dominates
mars(R):-the person competes with oneself
impulsive in nature
lots of anger and tension and arguments keep running inside
and that stress can become cause of high bp or related health problem
in women horo retro . mars will make her sexually active and perverted
Jupiter(r):-a sense of pride or fulfilment inside
may try to relabel against the rule where he is living or creating new order.direct Jupiter accepts the prevailing rules and order..while retro Jupiter try to create new order at home,office or even at national or international level.the Jupiter of Karl Marx was retrograding in Sagittarius in 9Th house..
one funny side of retro Jupiter is that if a person is in bad company he will try to adhere the good quality and with good company he will aligns himself to bad thoughts.they also show interest in some project or business where many have faced lost.
retro Jupiter is also responsible for downward trend in stock market.
Venus(r)- in man case this means excess sexual energy and perverted outlook and strained married life..they have bizarre idea to fulfil their sexual desire and their choice of women is also unconventional
mercury(r)-mercury is speech , expression .person with direct mercury can express and influence others while person with retro mercury are forced to accept the ideas and thinking of others..so they should avoid bad company as surrounding have profound effect on then.they have no control to stop that inflow of thoughts.as long they stay in right environment they excel.
Saturn(r)-they fear and are doubtful about anything that is new.they impose self restriction to themselves. they r follower of rules and theoretical way of living causing them a beast of burden.hard work and low return is seen in most of the cases.the good thing is in long run they gain mas try over their chosen field.
