Guest guest Posted April 27, 2003 Report Share Posted April 27, 2003 Hi All, Been following along with the discussion on Retrograde vs. Direct moving planets. These are my thoughts. It is my view, based on my researches and observations, that Retrograde planets, in the main, are much weaker than their more direct moving counterparts. The only consistent exceptions to this rule is Rahu and ketu, which by their very nature move backward through the heavens. Rx planets also suggest a "hidden agenda" in terms of the planet so Rx; so therefore, if Mercury is Rx, there is another level of thinking, a line of reason, that is not easily apparent for all to see. In teh case of venus Rx, again there is the sense of two seperate tracks of romantic/social/sexual ideals and goals; in the chart of a female, Venus Rx can be very important and telling in terms of how she views herself as a woman, and in terms of how she can relate sexually. Generally speaking, Rx benefics tend to have their "good" power weakened; in the case, Rx malefics tend to have their "bad" power reduced. Hope this helps the discussion along somewhat.
