Saturn Retrograde.

With Saturn retrograde, there is need to be on guard against a sob concious

defeatism which undermine the most noble ambitions. Because of this self Protective fear motivation they
tend to yield too easily to external influences. They either appear shy,uneasy, introverted, lacking in self
assertion or attempt at limes to cover this insecurity with a pretext of arrogance.
They have strong sense that fate, some universal compelling force,controls their destiny_ They feel alone,
isolated, separated from their fellow men and seldom understood. They are secretivcs. They may
be an apparent super sophistication about them, an air of total boredom, an impression that nothing could
shock them, stemming from the fact that they really worry about being a bore and wish to conceal
a fact that they are indeed, shockable. Such.Such people do not like to be known openly in public, for
they subconsciously fear there is no face behind the mask. They find security in intellectuals or spirituals.

When Mars is retrograde in one's birth chart,the physical energy and vitality never rise to meet the
challenge. It implies stubborn, unyielding physical force which docs not move until some mystical reasons
is found for its expression. It is often key to importance and frigidity, in men and women whose physical
forces arc
not unlocked until implemented by some non related idea or ideal.such persons often stop in the middle!-,
of a project to recapitulate.They oft en make good scientists and doctors. They also succeed in other
occupations which require handling of physical material in an objective, non involved way. They are very
good at planning and organising the physical labour of other thoughts or develop quite differently.
Also such people are law unto themselves. They normally do not accept the traditional way but adopt
unorthodox methods their approach to life is different than usual established social norms. Mars
retrograde when adversely configured in Natal Chart indicates persons must go under extensive and
successive surgery.
Women with such retrograde Mars arc signs of marital troubles,causes the women to become frigid or to
go 10 the other extremes and no middle course. Such women detest any intimate relations with their
husbands but are easy with younger fellows they contact, they usually get themselves into troubles.
Transiting Retrograde Mars follows the general principle that the powers of a retrograde planet
progressively increases as its speed slows down reaching at peak during stationery period. So during its
retrogression
one should not buy arms or auto mobiles, buy new property or move into new house, to undergo surgery,
to start a law suit, to join a new job, to have sex for the first time, to employ new servant or to
enter into partner ship. Such people frequently rebel against their own desires, try to Slime them
preferring 10 act, when they have to, against tremendous odds. subconsciously seeking an excuse for the
failure they anticipate.

RETROGRESSION AND TRANSIT

Based on the above rules and Astrological cannons we find that when a natural benefic planet transits a
favourable House
(1.2.4.5.7,9,10), if retrograde will give more good results.But when a benefic retrograde planet transits
malefic house (3,6.8.11,12), the evil results will be reduced to the minimum .Also when a malefic
retrograde planet transits a favourable house will neutralise the good effects of (hal house.But when it
transits a malefic house, of course a retrograde planet,the malefic effect of that house will become more
evils.
On the other hand, when the planet is direct, he will then be able to show his pressures to the people by
speaking and agonising over them,the individual with the retrograde birth planet often goes through the
~same agonies without being able to communicate, in any sensible way,what is happening to him.
A retrograde planet represent a psychic process turned in ward and not manageable, except with
enormous efforts by the conscious ego.A direct planet represents a psychic process, or part or the
personality
that is manageable by the ego consciousness.So, rar making analysis of a conjunction of planets the
most difficult positions are COMBUSTION and RETROGRESSION when these are found in conjuncting
planets. With the above guide lines reader can now easily find the effects of such conditions which will
help them in the correct analysis.
