Mars will create a dynamite mix in Libra starting Feb2014

[rita]

I believe the toughest time for libra lagna / moon sign people will be in July - August ...

Good point Kavi74. That is also what I have read on some astrology websites, that things will get worse for Libra Lagna/Moon after June, once Jupiter transits from 9th to 10th house for them. In fact, I am dreading it because things are not that easy at the moment, so I am wondering how much worse it could get.

I hope Shilpa and others can throw some light on the transit effects after June.

Rita ji,

I personally don't believe that it will be that difficult for people with Libra ascendant/Moon during July-August. I don't feel Jupiter's aspect on Libra is helping that much as it is seeming to be. Three first rate malefics Saturn, Rahu and Mars are in Libra now. Jupiter's aspect on them can't be of that much help if you think logically. In July-August Rahu would not be there with Saturn and Mars so the absence of Jupiter's aspect will be neutralised by the absence of Rahu in Libra.

If Jupiter was in Libra now, then we could have said that it was protecting the Libra ascendant/Moon people from trouble, but aspect of it on them is of not much help as I understand it. And the eclipse will happen in April; it's effect will wear off in some days. That effect can't stay for 3-4 months when Mars will go to Libra again.

Many thanks for the explanation OrangeMan. You have made a very good point that "the absence of Jupiter's aspect will be neutralised by the absence of Rahu in Libra". Let's hope July-August will not be any worse, if not better, than present times.

[Orange-Man]

Rita ji,

I feel it will be much better in July-August than it is now for people with Libra ascendant/Moon. Saturn-Mars in Libra is much less damaging compared to Saturn-Rahu-Mars there. Jupiter is not in Libra that it is helping much.

In August-September 2012 Saturn-Mars were together in libra, without any aspect of Jupiter on them as Jupiter was in Taurus then. Try to remember if that period was difficult for you. If yes, then, you can expect problems, but if not, then, there is nothing to worry about.

Dear All,

Jupiter turning direct has added positive things / gifts/ blessing to the mix.

However the negative component of the 3 heavy-weight malefics has not been reduced yet.......in-fact the severity of the hand they are dealing stands intensified......as shani and mars have both gone retro.

even those that have strong charts and well placed Mars have reported friction / fights/ conflicts in home and work environment.

also these retro planets are forcing resolution of the uncomfortable subjects that a lot of natives have been evading in the past

Do the right thing is my suggestion to all.....however difficult / uncomfortable it appears in the moment....and you will come out a winner with long term gains from this planetary congestion in Libra.

and this grinding will continue until 26th March when in the morning hours India time.....Mars would have moved back to Virgo....and the 3 malefic conjunction would be broken.
Then the intensity will drop....and Jupiter's blessings /gifts will start being felt more and more.

You have made a very nice and interesting point, Shilpa ji. I kind of experienced it in this transit and it has shaken me up a bit, I will say.

[Apolonia]

"Do the right thing is my suggestion to all.....however difficult / uncomfortable it appears in the moment....and you will come out a winner with long term gains from this planetary congestion in Libra."
The rest has come to pass. Let's hope the above also comes to pass!

[tripura]

Shilpaji ur right, it has been extremely stressful. this transit has brought out the worst in so many people, its like people are venting their long pent up feelings.

[tripura]

Hi, on the astrosage website it says those natives who are wearin red coral, hessonite and blue saphire should remove them during this transit

[Orange-Man]

What I have found interesting is, this transit has not affected people of other ascendants that much as people with Libra ascendant. It is just on the basis of the people whose charts I have seen so far so if many more charts are seen then maybe we will see people of other ascendants having been affected too by this transit.

dear prakhs,

--you have YK shani strongly placed in own house bt is transitting over natal moon conjunct with lagna...so it's peak of sade-sati....but not severe becuase of the positive placement of shani.

--you wil be starting Ketu anatra from March 11th and at the same time Rahu is transitting over the lagna.

--Rahu and Ket are not well placed...in each otehr0s nasktra...and the period at the start of the Ket MD will conicide with Mars alsoready in Libra conjunct with Rahu and shani.

---althought he house is first and axis 1-7 there is mitigation.....you have to be careful if your are in relationship ..it will come under stress....and be carfeful.....minor accidents like cuts / burns/ fally / slip in the bathroom causing some hurt may be possible.

--worship lord ganpathi daily...chant ket mantra 108 times and fast on Tuesdays if you can.

Shilpa ji,
I would like to share my experience from about 8th March to 15th March.
In Short,
Fights, Deaths, Injuries, Protests !!!


There was chaos in my college, everyday I used to see some fights over issues.
I was also involved in one fights particularly. It was related to cheating in an event organised by me in my college Technical Fest.

There were many incidents which took place in my college.
One of my colleague died in an accident. (8th March)
One of my colleague was brutally raged and abused from students of different stream (We are in university) (9th March)
There was protests in our college due to security issues.

Now there was clause proposed in our college that people below 65% attendance will be failed. It was not told to us and applied due to which many people failed in our college. Also this year due to new director many new rules was applied which were not fair. This ignited a big protest! And its like a war going on between administration and students. Protest started from 11th March.

Now came a very hard time for me. I lost my maternal grand mother on 12th March. I loved her very much. She was a very religious lady. She was my spiritual teacher.

The Train in which I was travelling has its mirrors broken due to riot. It was 8hrs late. I later found out that the train has stampede over 2 people and they died.

Then at 15th March my Bade Papa met with an accident. His arm got fractured.

Are there more things coming?

During this period, I have been observing the happennings very carefully keeping my mind very alert.However, many incidents happened beyond my control .

Even much before the transit started,I got my hand fractured and had very unpleasant day to day life from the end of january to first week of march and then got a horrible headache and stress for a conituous 5 days( from march 11 to 16th) No amount of tablets worked.However I am relating these physical pain and mental stress to my Venus-moon-saturn period which ends on April 7th and then my mercury P D starts.Now I started panicking about my Saturn Antar dasha which is going to be longer compared to this PD.

Apart from these , there was a friction between myself and my customer who is also an aquaintance and I was no more ready to adjust and compromise with her who was expecting more and more work from me.I came to a situation and thought Enough is enough and no more adjustments further.It must have been a shock to her because I am usually much of a polite person to the outsiders even in the worst scenario.
A guy hit my car when he was reversing without noticing properly that i was waiting behind him .Thankfully nothing severe than a vibration and a panic attack

Hopefully things will be peacefull after march 26th and I am counting the remaining few days of the Saturn PD to get over.Any comments on this?

[Saindhavi]

Retrograde Saturn is out of Sandhi in Libra now. This is some relief for Libra house.

Retrograde Mars will leave Libra in a couple of hours, but it will stay in Sandhi in Virgo till 28th of March around 3.45pm (Indian time).

Please observe and report your experiences around this period.

@shilpa ji,
I don't worship ganpathi. I have very less knowledge about hindu gods. I believe in god. But, When I pray to God, I don't expect anything in return. I pray to God for the revered qualities he posses, so that I can develop myself those qualities.
I am a follower of Jainism.

Hello Saindhavi Jee and Shilpa Jee and All

I am getting bit confused. Relating day to day events with these transits is not leading anywhere!! To summarize, no two days are same, but there is no change in overall situation....so how these transits are having effect.

However i do relate to Shilpa Jee's advice on Karmic know and doing the right thing....surprisingly as soon as i resolved it, situation turned so that now i am faced with opposite alternatives where both seem right!!! i am getting actually amused by this.....

We all know and conditioned to do right thing....but is there any thing like right or wrong??

Regards

Our conscience though for a flashing moment ALWAYS tells us what is the right thing...it may not be the most comfortable thing to do.

Our brain conditioned to override the voice of conscience do the most comfortable thing........and create justifications for that action taken being the right one

I completely agree with this. This is so true.

[Saindhavi]

Dear Friends,

Please understand a basic rule of astrology -

Ascendant and Mahadasha combination override the transits.

Major planetary transits of Rahu, Saturn and Jupiter may cause major impact irrespective of Mahadasha and Ascendant, but the Ascendant and Mahadasha combination will eventually decide the overall effect - depending upon how strong or weak these three planets are in the Ascendant charts.

Further, transits are seen from the Moon Chart, but in collaboration with Ascendant chart and Mahadasha combination running.

Transits are seen to calculate how far they are modifying the Ascendant chart and the Mahadasha combination running, in order to understand how much the transit can influence the strength or weakness of planets in the Ascendant chart.

So, if you see changes in your during this transit, please also keep in mind your Ascendant chart configuration and the Mahadasha combination running at this moment.

Taking all these together, the changes will be different for everyone.

To illustrate with an example, retrograde Jupiter with malefic Saturn and Rahu may bring about a court case in some people's lives - as some have reported earlier but the Ascendant chart, Mahadasha combination and transits can make the difference between getting respectfully acquitted from a court case and imprisonment following a court case - depending upon how strong and benefic, or weak and malefic planets are for a person in the Ascendant chart, Mahadasha combination and in transit - especially Rahu, Saturn, Jupiter and Mars.

Yes this is very true. But, in order to live in this society we can't follow our conscience. Can we?

I fully agree with Shilpa's statement. And the more we override the voice of our conscience and create justifications for our actions, the more distant we become from our inner voice. Even in our scriptures it is mentioned that for any action we take, we are faced with two choices, "Shreya" and "Preya". "Shreya" is when we take an action that is for the common good, the good of family, society and country, it often involves sacrificing our personal desires. Whereas "Preya" is when we do something for our own happiness and selfish reasons, overriding the common good. The choice is ours!

Another update...it's been couple of weeks now. New clients as suddenly they appeared, dis-appeared quickly. Big expenses showed up but was able to fulfill after liquidating some accounts. Still aggressive in looking for new business. Health, family and finances same. Looking forward to Mars going to Virgo, results and will update if anything changes.
