Retrograde Venus (Dec 24 - Feb 2)
On
December 24, the planet Venus turned retrograde in its motion in
sidereal zodiac sign Capricorn. 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 peak, 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 via Venus then you are more likely to experience the
effects of the retrograde Venus till February 2. The entrepreneurs, industrial leaders, managers, politicians,
and in general people with power and control may
find themselves in a miserable situation during this retrograde Venus period,
especially if
they are currently being influenced by Venus through their current progressive
cycles.
Retrograde Saturn (November 22 - April 6, 2006)
Saturn has been retrograde since November 22 and is going to stay retrograde till
April 6, 2006. For those who have a well placed Saturn in their birth charts and
if Saturn's period is currently in operation, then they are likely to experience
slower progress. Best way to deal with retrograde Saturn is to put more energy in
to whatever you do to work towards your goal.
On
the world scene, generally, the projects that deal with expansion are likely to
either stay on hold or experience sluggish progress. In religious world,
things are likely to move at frustratingly slow rate. In the political arena what may seem like progress
will turn out to be a disaster.
Uranus-Rahu
(and Ketu) ninefold square(s) (Jan
11-17)
Uranus-Rahu
(and Ketu) ninefold squares are going to be very unfavorable for those who have
such squares in their natal charts. Expect sudden loss of money, power, demotions
at work place and/or tarnished reputation in professional and social
fields. If you have such squares in your birth
chart, and if any one of these planets is presently influencing you through the
current progressive cycle then you need be very careful. The best thing to do is
not make any new commitment, and totally avoid taking any business or monetary risk. Remember
the time when you felt financially very secured, happy with family, and suddenly
the landscape turned against you and everything disappears. Well, if not exactly
this way but something like this has a good potential to happen. Again. So be careful!
On a collective level, United States and particularly
the President Bush and his administration should take extra precaution in
dealing with foreign matters. Terrorist activities are very likely to occur in
the United States besides the volatile region of the Middle-East (Israel and
Palestine).
Uranus-Saturn ninefold square (Jan 17- 21)
Saturn-Uranus ninefold square is
unfavorable for those who have such square or opposition in their birth charts.
In addition, if the planet Uranus or Saturn is affecting your life via your
current progressive chart, then you might want to consider taking extra
precautions in the areas which are affected by these planets as shown in your
natal chart. Such people should avoid taking any kind of risk at any cost
during this period. Such opposition can make things so miserable and
difficult for you that most likely you are not going to forget them in your
entire life. Staying low key is certainly the way to go. Avoid any new
ventures and postpone the matters that you want to begin till this period is
passed.
On a collective level, the United States of America,
Russia or China may experience a social or political turmoil at home as well as
tensions rising between them.
Saturn-Rahu
trine (Saturn-Ketu sextile) (Nov
5 - April 14, 2006)
Saturn-Rahu
trine is usually favorable for those who have lunar nodes favorably
placed in their natal charts with respect to Saturn. If such placing is
connected to the first house, second house, ninth house, tenth house, or
eleventh house then expect monetary as well as power gains, promotions and
improved prestige in professional and social fields. The ideas that you
always wanted to pursue your desired goals but somehow could never get started....now is the time
to follow that dream. 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.
Mars-Neptune Square (Jan 15 - 21)
During these six days in January Mars is going to be in
square with Neptune. Typically this square is very unfavorable and
unfortunate. For those who have such square in their birth
chart, and if they have any one of these planets influencing them through the
current progressive cycle need be extra careful. The best thing to do is to lay low
key, not make any new commitments, and avoid taking risk.
On the world scene, expect some sudden outbreak of an
undesirable happening, a strong possibility of both natural and
man-made calamities. The countries that are most likely to be affected during
these six days would be Pakistan and Russia.
Uranus-Saturn quincunx (Jan 12 - 27)
Saturn-Uranus quincunx is
not good for those who have such quincunx or square in their birth charts. In
addition, if the planet Uranus or Saturn is affecting your life via your current
progressive chart, then you might want to consider
taking extra precautions in the areas which are affected by these planets as
shown in your natal chart. Such people should avoid taking any kind of
risk at any cost during this period. Such quincunx can make things very
miserable and difficult for you. Staying low
key is certainly the way to go. Avoid any new ventures and postpone the
matters that you want to begin till this period is passed.
On a collective level, the United States of America, Russia or China may experience
social or political turmoil at home as well as tensions rising among them.
