Retrograde Jupiter For Each Ascendant




Generally most of the people born with one or more than one retrograde planets in their birth charts. Retrograde planets act differently than direct planets. Retrograde planets need

extra understanding because retrograde planets do not give benefits as do direct planets. Retrograde planets show specific areas within consciousness indicated by the sign and house they occupy and along with the house they rule. These all are  issues relieved or repeated in order to be fully resolved. When the issues are resolved then the soul can grow.


What is a retrograde planet ? 


When a planet is retrograde it appears to be moving backward in the sky. A retrograde planet  looks like it's going backwards in the sky but it is not. It is stationary in the sky and looks like it is moving back relative to the earth movement. Retrogression means reflection of things related to the planets. The Sun and Moon are never retrograde.


Generally retrograde planets are delayed things and do not give things easily. Depending on house placement and house rulership they delayed the things. You can understand this concept by thinking that they are not walking with you. They are just behind the pace of time and you need to wait for them what the planets signify and rules in your chart. In the birth chart every planet rules two houses for each ascendant except Sun and Moon. So any retrograde planet not just delays the things where it is placed but at the same time it delays which house it rules in your chart, and it also delays what they signify as a karaka in our life. 


So what happened when Jupiter retrograde as a karaka, house placement and house rulership. 


As a karaka (significator) Jupiter is the planet of growth, opportunity, divine wisdom, belief, optimism, religion, marriage, children, higher education, and long distance travelling. All these things are automatically delayed for those people who have retrograde Jupiter. A retrograde Jupiter can cause the person to turn inward with their expression. They have different point of views of belief and religion. Therefore they may have conflict over religion or spiritual beliefs with people around them. They have innate knowledge about the universe and they have good intuitive power. The placement of Jupiter and where it rules is the area the person is inwardly optimistic.  From a health point of view Jupiter is the karaka of the liver, and retrograde Jupiter gives problems with the liver.

Eclipse 2021 Astrology

 

 Year 2021 has 4 eclipses, 2 solar eclipses and 2 lunar eclipses


May 26th is total lunar eclipse (total) in Scorpio

                   June 10th solar eclipse (Annular) in Taurus

November 19 lunar eclipse (partial) 

December 4th solar eclipse (total)


Eclipses are dramatic events in life. Eclipses always indicate some change in life where they fall in the house in the birth chart. They help us to pull out some of our difficulties in life although it is very tough to do and get us out of situations where we are not needed. They bring some unpleasant, shocking, unbelievable and mind boggling experiences and help in to evolve our soul. Eclipse works very fast and they are asking for us to change.


Each year, you should pay attention to the sign and house of the eclipses that fall in your birth chart and indicate some adjustment or changes in your life and move forward in your life.


The nakshatra is also very important in which an eclipse falls. It will also give some clue how it will affect you. Generally, the nakshatra, and its meaning, will be spoiled before and after for the next few months of the eclipse. For this reason, various remedial measures have been recommended by priests in order to counteract the negative effect of an eclipse in each nakshatra.


In India, it is common for people to fast for 10 hours before an eclipse and then perform a havan (fire ritual) and chanting of a mantra for the particular nakshatra in which the eclipse is happening. Meditation is also recommended on this day to calm down the mind.


Now Ketu is the South Node of the Moon in Scorpio and Rahu is the North Node of the Moon in the sign of Taurus. Ketu exalted in Scorpio and Rahu exalted in Taurus. On May 26th there is a total lunar eclipse in the sign of Scorpio in the nakshatra of Anuradha at 11 degree. So the total eclipse in Scorpio will impact more on the spiritual side because Ketu is there. 


Every sign has negative and positive attributes. On a negative side Scorpio is the sign of jealousy, manipulation, control, revenge and possessiveness. On the positive side Scorpio is the sign of mysticism, spirituality, devotion, freedom and detachment. It totally depends on how much the individual evolves. 


Anuradha nakshatra is symbolized by a lotus flower, reflecting the ability to blossom in any adverse condition of life. The deity of Anuradha nakshstra is Mitra, the God of Friendship and Partnership. Anuradha individuals have the great ability to gather people together for social and spiritual activities. The shakti is “the power of worship”. 


The eclipse here helps you come out from the negative quality of Scorpio. Ketu, the South Node of the Moon concentrating and focusing energy compels you to look into your own negative behaviour and help to look beyond what is the true essence of life. 

 

Exactly opposite of the eclipse point, the Sun is in Rohini along with Rahu and Venus in the sign of Taurus. Sometimes too much attachment to another person could be unhealthy. It can create too emotional problems if the other person is not responding or if not understanding to you.  


This is a good time for looking at your unhealthy attachments with others and asking yourself if the attachment is healthy and balanced. Giving to someone too much and ignoring your own needs can be a sign of an unhealthy relationship. It's a great time for introspection of your own value and your own needs and be sure that you aren’t losing yourself to some unhealthy relationship. You just need to nurture yourself and take care of your emotions. Don’t hold onto unnecessary baggage. Don’t force anything unnecessary. This eclipse all about change and growth. Release and let go of the emotional burden of life and give importance to your value.


The deity that rules Anuradha nakshatra is Mitra, the god of friendship, so the mantra for this eclipse is Om Namo MitrasyaVarunasya Chakshse Maho Devaay, Tadrit Gwwam SaprYat DooramDrishe Dev Jaataay, Ketve DivSputraay SooryoYash Gwwam Sat.

Om Mitraay Namah..


On June 10, 2021 Annular Solar Eclipse


As always, Solar eclipses are great times for introspection, reflection, meditation and all things that put your attention on the inner world. 


There will be a Solar annular eclipse on June 10, 2021 at 25 degrees of Taurus, in Mrigashira nakshatra.  Sun being eclipsed by Rahu it's going to expand your desire and try to enhance your personal power.


Taurus is the sign of sensuality and Mrigashira is the star of fulfillment. It is a nakshatra that gives the power to make your desires real.  Eclipse in this nakshatra with Venus shows you will get fulfillment in your desire but be careful not to desire too much.


The deity that rules Mrigashira is Chandra, the Moon, so the mantra for this eclipse is Om Som Dhenu Gwwam SomaAvantuMaashu Gwwam, SomoVeerah KarmanyandDaati YadatayaVidhya Gwwam, SabheiyamPitram ShravanYom, Om ChandraMase Namah.
