[sJC: Achyuta Gurukul] Retrograde planets???????(Please help)

is vargottama will behave as EXALTED.

I kind of don't look the gurus in the eye on this one. There is most often

delays in fructification whenever planets are retro, but that's about it. To

deem an exalted planet as deb just because it's retro is a bit rich, frankly.

And I say that having particularly examined charts from this angle.

 

There's also this interesting view that a retro planet will behave like it's

direct in as many years after birth as the days it takes to turn direct, when

reckoned from your natal chart. You'll have heard Ramadas extol this thing

here.

 

I recall Sanjay having made the point somewhere that retro planets confer a

'strength to overcome', so to speak. Couldn't agree more.

How can grahas' innate characteristics alter just because of retrogression?

Ditto as above.

FUNTIONAL BENEFIC IN A CHART AND ARE RETROGRADE?E.g Saturn in > GEMINI LAGNA?

You could consider Sa to be Ge's functional benefic only when it owns Aq. And

even then, being in asc isn't the best place for Sa, since it'd be low in

digbala.

 

Warm regards,
