Retro planets: Facts & chart with many Retro&Exal, Debl planets

October 8, 2004

ere are some thoughts abt Retro planets, as so many asking for a

practical example at the end chart data is supplied..

In Vedic astrological treatises, retrogression has been considered as

an indication of strength (chestabal is the technical term used for

the strength when a planet is retrograde). Some say that the natural

benefics such as Venus, Mercury and Jupiter are strong while natural

malefics such as Saturn and Mars are weak or evil when retrograde,

unless Saturn or Mars happen to be ascendant lords or yogakarakas.

In practice, retrograde planets generally seem to affect the mental

plane more than the physical or worldly plane . During the dasha of

a retrograde planet, one would be hard pressed to find a difference

in the types of events that occur ; however, the person with the

dasha lord retrograde in his chart may react to the goings-on

differently than another individual undergoing the dasha of the same

planet in direct motion.

Taking retrograde Jupiter as an example, a notable thing about

nativities with a retrograde Jupiter almost anywhere in the chart but

particularly in the 3rd, 4th, 6th, 8th and 11th is that they are

presented with opportunities in life to bring to fruition other

peoples' failed projects.

Retrogression could represent an intrinsic strength in ones being or

may represent an armor with cracks in it, the outcome depending upon

how well the retrograde planet is connected with other factors in the

chart.
