Very interesting topic…!
I will not explain here how retrogression happens..! Because it is well known fact that planet is not moving backward but it is illusion from earth that particular planet is moving backward which is called retrogression.
Now whenever any planet goes into retrogression, please note as mentioned below;
(1) Planet is very near to earth
(2) Planet is very slow or stationary
(3) Planet is breaking the laws of solar system (illusion)
(4) Planet is moving backward
(5) Planet stays in one sign, nakshatra for longer than usual
Now suppose you have retrograde planet(s) in your natal chart, then it is very important to understand its role & signification in our chart.
Now check as follow;
(1) Find out whether you planet is stationary or moving
(2) How many degrees it has traveled backside after retrogression onset?
(3) How many degrees it has to travel to achieve its direct motion again?
(4) If it is stationary then know whether the planet is stationary in the beginning or end of retrogression!
(5) Check whether the retrograde planet is within 0–5 degrees of the sign or not
(6) Check whether the retrograde planet is within 25–30 degrees of the sign or not
(7) Check whether retrograde planet is functional benefic or malefic!
(8) Check which houses are ruled by retrograde planet!
Now please find below the interpretations based on above mentioned different conditions;
(1) Planet is stationary or moving!! – If your retrograde planet is stationary (in beginning) in your natal chart then there will be very delay in the fructification of the activities dominated by that planet. Because this is the initiation of the retrogression, & planet has to travel longer in the retrogression to achieve direct motion
(2) & (3) How many degrees traveled by retrograde planet: suppose your retrograde planet traveled near about 15 degrees backside after onset of retrogression..! Means planet has endured the retrogression already and happy time is near… so this planet will endow immense results – This planet would be travelling very slow & it is not stationary too which is also very near to our planet earth so this planet will give abundant more than laws set of planetary system because
It is slow & stay in one sign, nakshatra is long
Breaking the rules of planetary system
So this planet will give maximum effect during its dasa to the native. Now whether is benefic or malefic there will be tremendous effects on the native during the dasa of this slow moving retrograde planet
(4) Now suppose planet is getting stationary in the end of retrogression, here this planet will bless the native will best of its results during dasa as mentioned earlier
(5) Suppose retrograde planet is within 0-5 degrees, then this planet will change the sign after birth so native will get the effects of both the houses / signs
(6) Now suppose planet is within 25-30 degrees, then this planet has just entered in this sign by retrograde movement so it will have trivial effect and there will be need of lots of efforts by planet to reach the mid of the sign so native too has to make lots of efforts to get the fructification of the retrograde planet
(7) If planet is malefic then it will give abundant malefic effect and if it is benefic then it will bless the native with abundant benefic effects
(8) Check the lord ship of the retrograde planet – so above mentioned results will be observed regarding that houses’ activities
Moreover, retrograde planet is karmic so it will give you more inward energies than outward, so person with retrograde planet would be thinker in the activities related to that retrograde planet. If person has retrograde Jupiter then person will be very knowledgeable by his own thought process. If Venus is retrograde then the person will think deep inside regarding the relationship and pleasure before & after execution…! Similarly you may apply for all other planets…!
So overall not much difference will be observed with retrograde planet but it will either slow down the effects and delay in fructification OR it will bestow the abundant effect (Benefic / malefic) with more of inward thoughts of self-realization, self-knowledge, etc.
