Hello folks ,I would like to know more about Retrograde planets in the natal chart. And if the slow moving planets have a personal effect... I only have Mercury retrograde, but I definitely feel it. Lots of introverted thinking, introspection, analysis, more turned inward. Subjective thinking.
I'd like to hear about Saturn retrograde, especially. Both my parents have that one.. How does it play out??
ANY other planet is welcome ! Talk about it Thanks. IP: Logged |

I mercury and neptune. I can see how my neptune retrograde affects me. specially when I am nervous. i am very talkative, but when i write or prepare presentations, i tend to think of so many things to make it perfect, flawless as thinking that they would aks so weird questions. i try to anticipate and to be as throrough as possible. well, my mercury in gemini sextile saturn square uranus and pluto. the way neptune affects me, i cannot tell. i am not aware of it. maybe neptune is not a strong planet in my chart. no major aspects except quinqux, which frankly i dont feel too much either.

I have Mercury,Saturn and I think,Neptune retrograde. I would hate to have Venus Retrograde.That would be the hardest,I think. With Mercury Retrograde,I know how to handle it,now. My brain with glitch at certain times and with certain things. I feel happy that I can,often,stop and tell the person with whom I am interacting that I am having a brain freeze and could he wait for a moment until it passes. I have certain things that are VERY hard for me to learn. They are body learning such as dance or using exercise equipment lol When I was going to the gym ,pity the poor person who had to show me how to use the machines lol I never thought about the introspection part,Doux. That makes sense. I,always, was much deeper than your typical Gemini lol

I have Jupiter Rx and Chiron Rx About 95% of both descriptions apply to my life. http://www.horizonsmagazine.com/Astrology/RetrogradePlanets.html Natal Jupiter Retrograde * has doubts about what they deserve and so ... * finds it easy to settle for crumbs * feels superior in some way inside * abundance is felt on the inside * looks inside for answers to religious questions Jupiter represents the principles of expansion, gambling, speculation, luck, opportunities, optimism, abundance, travel, higher education, teaching, religion and philosophy. Approximately four months a year, this planet slips into retrograde. When it does, you are likely to see its influence roll through your life and society around you. Plans have a tendency to implode. Jupiter retrograde influences us internally to look within to seek new meanings. You may find you can best use these opportunities to revaluate your life and reach new levels of awareness and understanding. Abundance is felt within as you search the world looking to discover truth and develop a broader philosophy of life and living. At the same time, you may feel hesitant about involving yourself too deeply in others affairs or sharing your views out of a concern for being thought so different that you may be cast out by public opinion. Speculations may not bring you all the external rewards you seek, but each time you take a chance, your adventures allow you to gain from a wide variety of experiences. You must remain open and honest with yourself in order to expand your spirituality and allow your inner voice to guide you. Natal Retrograde Jupiter can cause you to encounter one impediment after another in your search for understanding and positive experiences, especially in early life. Positive abilities, talents, attributes and skills tend to come later in life. Higher education is prone to be delayed, if it comes at all. One of the beneficial aspects of this placement, is that you are more likely to be introspective, which assists in the development of higher spiritual ideals. Natal Chiron Retrograde * initiates us to discover unrecognized abilities * looks within first to heal itself * magnetizes healing from the outside Chiron is the planet of the wounded healer. Natal Chiron retrograde indicates that this is a time to discover previously unrecognized abilities. Often, the most beaten down parts of ourselves are actually our greatest strengths. However, they've never been developed or cultivated and remain in that wounded, beaten down state. This lack of growth somewhere in our lives is now holding us back. It's time to let these wounds heal, to let go of old grudges, to wake up to how powerful we can be if we cease being a "victim". Chiron is an initiator, helping us break through to possibilities undreamed of. However, we must be willing to take the initiative, consciously stepping out of life-as-usual.

ARe retrogrades considered something you got from being bad in a past life? I know unaspected planets are considered good karma. Are Retro's considered bad karma?------------------ Enlightenment doesn't result from sitting around visualizing images of light, but from integrating the darker aspects of the self into the conscious personality Jung You must lose your life for My sake in order to find it .
