Respected Astrologers,
I will appreciate your opinion about effects of Retro Saturn in a natal chart. Some astrologers say that retro saturn delays further the results of house where it is positioned. Could you please elaborate effect of retro saturn when it occupies its exalted sign, own sign,debilitation.

Indeed,I have retrograde saturn.
Delay is the basic nature of saturn,when retrograde its basic nature is merely enhanced,however,those who keep patience are adequately rewarded by saturn.
A retrograde planet may also be considered one step behind,that is,4th saturn may give result akin to being in third House.

Any cruel nature planet is ,usually,welcomed in upachay place (3rd,6th,10th,11th).exception is when those who argue falsely or speak lies for selfish interests make their saturn or rahu malefic.

Respected Revribhav ji,


i hav retro saturn in my 9th house in Libra and aquarius ascendant. what are its effects and is it benefic or malefic for me?

Since 9th is the house of fortune, i think my fortune is being delayed.

Date of Birth: 29th April, 1984
Time: 02:29 am
Place of Birth: Amreli, Gujarat, india.

Thanking you in anticipation.

Kind Regards

Lord of ascendent,usually,increases the effects of house it occupies
the problem in your case is that of 8th saturn from moon
You may keep a positive outlook and let me assure you are a fairly lucky person

Dear Revribhav,

I have two retrograde planets in my chart where Scorpio is the ascendent. Saturn is retrograde in the 5th house and Mercury is retrograde in the 9th house. Going by what you say, Saturn should give results akin to that of the 4th (which is its own house) and Mercury should give results akin to that of the 8th house (again, own house). I was not aware of how to read retrograde planets and thinking about Saturn in the 4th house and Mercury in the 8th house makes my chart stronger than I thought it is (IMHO). However, I have always felt that I am very unlucky and also I have faced and continue to face delays in most aspects of my life. Could Saturn and Mercury be the reason for this? Please let me know what you think. Thanks.

saturn aspect to moon suggest pessimistic outlook,in addition to lord of ascendent occupying the house of gloom,you may be prepared mentally that all is well that ends well.

Retrogade saturn would give delays.
I would suggest that you find a place where birds gather, and feed as many birds as possible.

PS: I saw a dream today in which I am praying to shanidev to be direct motion all the time :)

Thanks Revribhav, Moits007,

I am intrigued by the following statement -

In my chart, retrograde Saturn is in the 5th house and has its 10th aspect on Moon which occupies the 2nd house. But if retrograde Saturn in 5th is considered as akin to the Saturn in the 4th house, would it aspect on Moon still be the same?

By the way, I am not pessimistic at all!

Regards,

Rag

a retrograde planet may give effect of previous house
however
giving effect of previous house does not equate with being placed in the previous house.
The principle of aspects remain the same for retrograde

Let me share my experience.

I have Sa (R) in 6th house (dustana)
Im running my Ve/Sa dasa (which i think is said to be benefic if Ve and Sa are in dustana)
Ve is in 12th and Sa is in 6th
And I feel this period has been on a positive side. Ups and downs and hardwork has been there. But still last year when my sade sati started in Nov 2011 i faced some problems... but when this dasa started things got better in my opinion.

So the point is being retrogade I think it is still giving effects of being in 6th
If ayone thinks Im worng kindly correct me.
Im still confused if my Saturn is a benefic for me or a malefic?

My birth details:
1st June 1988
9 52 am
67E3 Long
24N52 Lat

A retorgrade planet may give effect of being in the previous house,the intention of ancient astrologer who observed that was not that the said dictum applies in every case. Apart from retrograde, saturn inny9our chart is the most powerful in terms of shad bala and the aspect of venus (in conjunction with own house mercury) is friendly.
