Retrogression Techniques and some other concepts
Some of the facts and Techniques that you can test.
- Retrograde Planets are closer to Earth as Earth is between Sun and that Planet.
- When planets( mars jupiter saturn uranus neptune) are in Exact Degree Opposition to Sun. They reach their closest distance to Earth and appears Brightest. This is the best time for that planets gazing from eyes or telescope. (As you can see simulation in some months of a year, where they appear bigger in whole year).
- Planet in Exact degree opposition to Sun have highest chestabala of 60. As their effect on Earth is more during this period.
- Mercury and venus have high chesta bala of 60 when they are retrograde and have same degree as Sun. So they are both retro and combust at their closest distance to earth. So you cant see them.
- Retrograde position is karmic, as that planet have you by collar to make you fulfill its signification that you didnt complete in past.
- If you know AI & Machine learning, you must have heard of Batch gradient descent and stochastic gradient descent. Direct Planets are like batch gradient descent: stable , can sometimes stuck at local minima. While Retrograde planets are like stochastic GD, slightly unstable but fast and dont get stuck at local minima.
- Retrograde planets have high chesta bala, thus allows more mistakes to learn and never settle. If they are in right direction/path then they reach results earlier than direct planets. Example : emmanuel macron youngest president etc. But if in wrong direction, they will make your life hell and never let you settle.
- Wherever there is retrograde planet, there is no stability and even commitment issues. Thats why rahu ketu axis is also unstable.
- The way of working of retrograde planet is different than direct or stationary planet.
- Exalted planet have sthana bala, retrograde have chesta bala. Both are different. Only idiots consider retrograde exalted as debilitated and retro debilitated as exalted. I follow BPHS only, and have no need for translation of other authors into english language causing misinterpretation.
- Even when that retro planet have sthana bala( feels that they are in right place), they will deliver results by making mistakes. But it doesnt mean that they will give bad results, just their way of working is by making mistakes.
- Retrograde planet have commitment problems, they have constant need of support from planet in combination to them or aspecting them or their dispositor . 7th house to any house completes it, and provides stability to that house.
- Retrograde planets needs more power for working, thats why they seek energy from 7th position to itself or from planet conjunct or aspecting them, but it doesnt mean it gives results of 7th house to itself.
- They work like nuclear reactor, you need more efforts to start that reactor and more effort to stop it. But it provides faster and better results than ordinary planets( if they are beneficial)
- Retrograde planet need to have directional strength or in combination with planet in directional strength, otherwise they will keep work in wrong direction or become less confident. Thats why rahu/ketu are best with digbali planets as they know where to work, even when that place can be wrong. But you are confident and know where to work
In this one revolution cycle from 1998(aries) to 2027(pisces) Saturn was closest to earth on 31 december 2003 (exact opposition to sun) as it was perihelion position(saturn in gemini is closest to sun) . it was brightest and closest in 30 years.
While apehelion position(saturn in sagittarius is farthest to sun) was in 2017 to 2020
Sun considers retrograde planet its enemy as they are going out of control of Sun and not following the orders( direct motion) of Sun
Saturn in apehelion gets out of control of Sun, so in mundane astrology , you can see that government cant control people or some extraordinary issues originates and government cant solve them. Example: great depression, Covid-19 etc.
Saturn in perihelion is under control of Sun, these times need more control from government. If govt uses less control then things go bad.
