"Jupiter Retrograde
Natal
Your optimism, faith in
life and generosity are
buried deep inside and
you feel awkward and
perhaps even
uncomfortable displaying
these characteristics.
Your luck in life is
attached to displaying
these characteristics and
so until you do, you may
feel unlucky at times.
This is because Jupiter is
trying to make you go
deep within to find what
it is that is holding you
back from experiencing
all the positive
expansion that Jupiter
wants to bring you.
Depending on what
house Jupiter is in will
tell you where you are
holding back. Jupiter is
about belief, faith and
hope, all the things that
miracles are born of. If
you do not grab hold of
your faith in having
whatever it is that you
want in your life then
you are only holding
yourself back. You tend
to be more pessimistic
rather than optimistic.
However, like all
retrogrades the rewards
are that you will
understand the meaning
of faith more than most
and have the greater
possibility of
understanding that the
more positive you
become, the more
positive things are to
happen for you."

Do you guys have retrograted planets?Which ones?

I will make some guess on Jupiter Retro and you tell me if I am right.
Do you fell other people get "good luck" and opportunities while you wait in the sidelines?

Do you feel like you will get back luck, rather than good?

Do things you want seem to be delayed to the point you think you never will get them?

I mean they say this is common for learning development issues but honestly I have none.

" A retrograde Mars in a horoscope usually signifies an excess of energy within the native and the native may not know what to do with this energy at times. So it can make the native aggressive and such natives may get angry comparatively sooner. A native with a retrograde Mars in his horoscope may take surprising decisions at times. A retrograde Mars in case of females may show some masculine habits like the tendency to control and dominate. Apart from these general deviations, a retrograde Mars gives its results in a very much similar way as a forward moving Mars. But it is important to notice that a retrograde Mars possesses far more energy than a forward moving Mars and it is capable of producing results of higher quantum and intensity. So people with a negative retrograde Mars in their horoscope must be careful as it can cause much more damage than a forward moving Mars."

Im not sure what merc retro means?

I have it too. It is just a depth of thinking because one must go deep into things to understand them but then the person can be super creative with his thinking. I have it in Gemini. I really like Merc Retro, myself

Snippets from his book:

Mercury Retrograde - "When Mercury appears Retrograde in the horoscope, the individual's conscious mind is capable of tapping ideas in the universal consciousness from prior times."

"In areas which require concentration, this individual can be an excellent student even though it may take him a little longer to grasp ideas and principles. In the end he will know the subject more thoroughly and with much greater insight and depth than the individual with direct-motion Mercury."

Jupiter Retrograde - "The individual with Retrograde Jupiter is a living truth unto himself. His ideals about right and wrong, the morality of the world he travels in, and the fairness of other people's opinions has little effect on what he feels inside."

"Basically he is a free spirit. And, while he will conform to the ideals of society which are helpful to him, he struggles constantly to maintain his sense of individuality."

I have Sun Sq Saturn too. It doesn't make me unlucky more as the perspective of limitation and obstacles confront the personal ego and seem to 'wound' it's expectations.

It would be the opposite of quick tempered. It would be an inner directed temper
