Retrograde Venus (May 18 - June 30)
On
May 18, the planet Venus turned retrograde in its motion in
sidereal zodiac sign Gemini and is going to remain retrograde till the end of
June. Venus becomes
retrograde about once every 19 months, and stays retrograde for about six
weeks. In
general, a retrograde Venus means a very challenging period for
women, marriages, home life, lovers, entertainment industries. Expect the
divorce rates to rise, fighting between spouses to intensify, and delays, frustrations,
and misunderstandings to take a center-stage in domestic matters. If
you have a dominating Venus in your birth chart, and if your current planetary
cycle influences your life negatively via Venus then you are more likely to experience the
effects of the retrograde Venus till June 30. The entertainers such as actors, actresses, musicians, comedians, movie
directors and producers may
find themselves in a miserable situation during the retrograde Venus period
especially if
they are currently being negatively influenced by Venus through their current progressive
cycles.
Pluto-Jupiter ninefold opposition (June 9-13)
This opposition could become
responsible for a unique transformation in the field of religion as the planet
Pluto with its tremendous energy has a power of irreversibly transforming the
field of religion and academics to a new level or setting with a new set of
norms.
In your birth chart if Jupiter and Pluto are either in
conjunction or opposition, and if either of these planets is currently influencing your
life via your current
progressive chart, then you are perhaps standing on the thresh-hold of a new era
that's about to begin in your life. Depending on the houses these planets
occupy in your birth chart, you are going to have a totally new and a very
different experience in that particular field. Be ready to accept this new
settings with new challenges as well as the rewards that come with them.
On a collective level, religious and academic and to
some extent social fields are very likely to see changes coming in their
respective fields. Initial
reaction to the change might appear to be a bit confusing and perhaps chaotic,
but the majority of us are going to embrace this new wave of change and are very
likely to enjoy it.
Neptune-Saturn ninefold quinqunx (June 18 -30)
If
you have either a Neptune-Saturn square, opposition, or quinqunx in your birth chart, and
if your current planetary operating cycle is
influenced by either of these planets then you are likely to experience a subtle
but serious financial or social setback or an unpleasant secrete will be
revealed to you. If you are planning to take long distance (overseas) trips
during this period, be extra careful of nasty surprises, or even being stranded
in places you never dream of.
On
the collective level, covert activities will be on rise. Possibilities of natural as well as man-made
calamities are likely. Places like Russia and China are likely to
experience political and social turmoil. Non-democratic countries are likely to
see shift of power from one faction (or dictator) to another. Religious
activities around the world will likely to appear more secretive than open.
Neptune-Saturn ninefold square (June 22-26)
If you have a Neptune-Saturn square in your birth chart,
and if any one of these two planets is influencing you now through your current
progressive chart, then during this period you might want to consider
postponing your plans of expansion or any new venture, and just be in a defensive
mode. This square has a tendency to ruin your plans in a very deceptive
manner, and usually there is very little you can do about it once the process
begins.
On a collective level, countries like China and Russia
may face some difficult time during this period.
Uranus-Saturn
ninefold sextile (June
10-14)
Uranus-Saturn
ninefold sextile is going to be favorable for those who have these
planets favorably placed in their natal charts. Expect monetary as well as
power gains, promotions and improved prestige in professional and social
fields. The ideas that you always wanted to pursue but somehow could never
get started....now is the time to follow that dream. However don't neglect your
family during this busy time. You will distinctly notice
and feel the positive energy flowing through you during this period. It's
time to jump in and enjoy this period.
On a collective level, religious activities all around
the world are likely to expand with new vigor and energy, conservatives will
find ways to compromise with liberals on sticky issues. Democrats and
Republicans will agree on more matters than the ones they disagree. This
is a good time to get those lingering bills passed in U.S. Congress and Senates.
China and Russia are likely to experience some mild setbacks in their foreign
policies, especially the one that deals with the United States.
