Saturn Transit - 3 years

Saturn moved its house once again on 26th October 2017. This is the last but the most important change of 2017, as Saturn moves from Scorpio to Sagittarius, where it will be transiting for about 2 years & 3 months (till 24th January 2020) bringing major changes in our lives that are currently not imagined or planned. Sagittarius is a strange sign for Saturn as it is an aggressive sign full of fire, openness & impatience. All these traits are just the opposite of the true nature of Saturn, which would ensure that changes in life would come in due to changed circumstances and mostly out of reactions rather than planned or pleasant coincidences of life!
Saturn behaves like a teacher who is strict in maintaining discipline – who punishes as well as rewards the students as per their performances, deeds and behavior. Like a judge he is also known to give justice according to deeds of the persons. Saturn has an eye on the deeds and conduct of every person and he waits for a particular period to give the results of the same. These periods are popularly known as the period of Saturn like Major period of Saturn (Shani Mahadasha), Minor period of Saturn (Shani Antardasha), Seven and a half year period of Saturn (Sadhe Sati) and Two and a half period of Saturn (Kantak Shani). No one can escape, how great he may be, during these periods if he had performed bad karmas in life. These periods offer an opportunity to the native to balance his sins to make him more pure and pious.

Scorpio, Sagittarius and Capricorn would experience tough time as these natives are undergoing one of the phases of Saturn Sadhe Sati.

Those who are born with Sagittarius as their Moon Sign will get the worst results as they will be facing second phase of Sadhe sati.

Moon sign born Taurus, Gemini, Virgo and Pisces will feel bad effect of this Saturn transit.

Moon Sign born Cancer, Libra and Aquarius will have good results of this transit.

Moon sign born Leo and Aries will have neutral effect of transit.

वक्रतुंड महाकाय सूर्यकोटी समप्रभ ।
निर्विध्नं कुरु मे देव सर्वकार्येषु सर्वदा ।।

vakratunda mahakaya surya koti samaprabha |

Rahu - Ketu Movement 2017 ...........

Rahu (the dragon's head) & Ketu (the dragon's tail) would bring in some changes in our lives now. Rahu & Ketu remain 180° apart. Their movement on August 21 from Leo & Aquarius to Cancer & Capricorn respectively, would bring in unexpected & dramatic changes in our personal life as well as world events. This change comes in every 18 years and we would be revisiting the part of life as it was during 1999 & 2000. This was the time when Rahu & Ketu had last transited the sign of Cancer & Capricorn. During this period, the world experienced the great Dotcom Bust as the technology & financial markets had crashed. India saw a proxy war as Kargil was attacked by terrorists / mercenaries that were allegedly from Pakistan. The country also witnessed the high drama of Indian hostages at Kandahar, Afghanistan.
All these events had one thing in common. It's the very nature of Rahu & Ketu in Cancer / Capricorn axis that brings nearly 180° change. The very circumstances around us become different without any change in our own work, nature & abilities. This usually creates opportunities & changes we are not ready for & couldn't have planned for or insured in the normal circumstances.

Saturn : Surprises & Regains about to begin

Saturn is the judge and the lord of karma, whatever we do in our life, past or present is sorted out by the karma – ruler Saturn. It is going into a retrograde motion will sort the Karma of each. Therefore, Saturn retrograde can be seen as a double dose of Karma. Karma is a form of energy, which is real, and it is very closely bounded to Saturn.

The combination of past, present and future is always knitted only by our doings, and karma is the main results of our deeds. If you have been good in the past, then at a predetermined time, a good event will cherish your life and will reward you. With the onset of Saturn retrograde motion, the Karma will show how responsible you were in the past.

The retrograde Saturn on 6-04-2017 will start a journey from the deep despair to the euphoric heights and this karmic rollercoaster ride is starting in a very bad place with the presence of Venus square Saturn.  This will be the most challenging of all planetary aspects. The matter will become worse, the sadness will haunt every day, losses and pains can’t be neglected because both planets are in retrograde motion and both with unfortunate stars.

Saturn Retrograde Meaning

The retrograde phase of Saturn and its effects depends on the position of Saturn in your birth chart. If the placement of Saturn is not favorable then it may bring delays and difficulties in your life and relationship. Perhaps you’ll fail to earn a proper living to support your parents and your parents. Saturn aspect by position will show the areas of life, the changing personality traits, behaviors that’ll require extra development. You’ll have to learn some lessons or will have to pay extra effort to pay back your karmic debt. It is good if you learn the lessons to help you further in the difficult phase of life.
A healthy Saturn in your horoscope compels one to work hard and get the fruits of the work soon. The aim is to be physically strong enough so that your hardships of life may vanish soon to prepare you for the responsibility for yourself and the family members.

Effect of Saturn Retrograde in general

Saturn retrograde shows depression, anxiety, sadness, loneliness, tiredness and lack of motivation. People with ill-placed Saturn shows disrespect to the parents, authority, and figures that may hold you back. Saturn is associated with Karma so you have to reap what you have sowed. Dishonesty and betrayal is hatred for Saturn. If you’re a victim of conspiracy, betrayal, then it’s the better time to hope for the justice. If you have done good but no reward in favor, then it is a good time as you’ll be rewarded by the planet of justice. However, it also depends on the placement of Saturn in your birth chart and transition of Saturn and its effect on your horoscope.

Whatever be the effect of Saturn retrograde –Be ready for your past deeds.

Saturn Retrograde Dates

Saturn entered the Sign of Sagittarius on 26th January, 2017. Now, the Saturn Retrograde will begin on 6th April and will last till 20th June, 2017.
Saturn – the strictly no-nonsense and ego-deflating planet, which entered Jupiter's mansion – Sagittarius with its minimal luggage on 26th January, 2017, has now decided to pack its bags again to head towards the mysterious Scorpio, for a brief 'investigation'.

We are now nearing that phase when Saturn will be travelling in a retrograde motion. During the year 2017, Saturn will be passing in a retrograde motion for about 142 days, that is around 4 months and 22 days. Saturn Retrograde in Sagittarius will in operation from 6th April, 2017 to 20th June, 2017 and after this the mighty taskmaster will be entering the Sign of Scorpio, but continue to transit in a retrograde motion till 25th August, 2017. Its unusual stay in Scorpio will finally come to an end on 26th October, 2017 after which the Saturn Transit in Sagittarius will begin afresh.

What To Expect? 

The Saturn retrograde may bring some unexpected changes and there may be unprecedented developments. If you are planning to begin some new and important tasks or projects, then consider all the options well as Saturn may try to test your determination and sense of purpose. Saturn will remind you of the tasks that you had started working on in the recent past, but left them halfway due to a lack of focus or interest. The retrograde transit of Saturn will bring a buoquet of positive as well as negative results.

Passion Karma runs high during thistime. A person is likely to achieve the desired - be it on the professional front or in relationships. This transit is known to provide a lucky window to approach & complete your financial projects with much rigor and passion. The results are generally achieved if done at the right time when Mars Venus Combine is operative.
This transit gives an ability & courage to make things work in your favour - both at work and in love & relationships.

What are the Water signs in Astrology?:

Cancer, Scorpio and Pisces

Why are they called Water signs?:

There are four triplicities in Astrology that are grouped by their element. The other triplicities are earth signs (Capricorn, Taurus, Virgo), fire signs (Aries, Leo, Sagittarius) and air signs(Libra, Aquarius, Gemini).What are the general characteristics of the Water signs?:

Water signs are attuned to waves of emotion, and often seem to have a built-in sonar for reading a mood. This gives them a special sensitivity in relationships, knowing when to show warmth and when to hold back. At their best, they are a healing force that brings people together -- at their worst, they are psychic vampires, able to manipulate and drain the life force of those closest to them.Water signs are tuned into the many shades of meaning in relationships, and at times can absorb "vibes" from others. They have to work harder than other elements to maintain their personal boundaries.
How are the three Water signs different?:
Within their triplicity, the water signs each belong to another group known in astrology as qualities. For the water signs, Cancer is a Cardinal sign, Scorpio is a Fixed sign, and Pisces is a Mutable sign. In basic terms, Cancer leads and initiates, Scorpio goes deep with a fixed focus and Pisces is changeable, hard to pin down.
Water and Earth:
Water signs can soften Earth and take them into the deeper emotional layers of intimacy. This brings touchy and feely together for a satisfying physical relationship in romance. Earth can help Water with the practical challenges of life, and encourage them to bring their gifts into the real world through some tangible effort.Water and Fire:
Water and Fire can be one steamy combination under the right circumstances. Water can add emotional nuance to Fire's instinctual responses, and help Fire learn things like tact, compassion and how to nurture. Fire can blaze a trail for Water out of the swampy abyss of inaction. Their vitality and enthusiasm lifts Water up, so they can find their way. Like with any element, there's a danger here of mutual harm if things are not in balance. Fire can dry up Water, and make them feel brittle and undernourished. Water can smother Fire, put out the flames of inspiration, which usually sends them right out the door.Water and Air:
Water can help the Air sign make the deeper emotional connection. Water inspires Air to create a stronger personal base for what they're saying, by meaning what they say. Air signs help Water put their feelings into words, and understand the patterns at play in their lives. Air encourages the insights of Water, and can be a motivating force for creative expression.Water and Water:
Here is a pair that can dive together into the deep end, for better and worse. They'll understand the need of the other for "me" time to process all they've experienced. But two Water signs can easily merge and lose their sense of boundaries. This might not always be a bad thing, but at times it might feel like two people at the mercy of the emotional highs and lows of life. With balancing elements, this can be an incredibly close bond, to the point of being telepathic.
The Water Element in Astrology:
Those with planets in Water signs are often assessing a situation by its undercurrents. It can give them an air of being aloof or even shy at first, but they're the warmest of souls when you've won their trust. Going forward in a relationship or situation often means being sure of their emotional ground, a kind of decision-making process that is baffling to others. Their perceptions border on psychic, but these insights get clouded by the intensity of feelings, or are altered by the vivid imagination.The nuances of feeling experienced by Water signs can lead them into the arts. Some find release from their own personal dramas when they're able to express them as universal. As writers, musicians and actors, they help others make sense of the human experience. But this also happens in everyday life, since Water signs soften the edges of the mundane by padding it with emotional meaning.Water is a formless element on its own, and that's why those with this sign are so quickly shaped by their relationships to others. They need time alone to remember where they end and others begin. And to let what's been stirred up by life find its way to a quiet calm again. These are people who need people, but also need the restoring space of solitude.
