Sometimes it happens that the planets for some time begin to move in reverse direction. Of course, this happens only from the point of view of an earthly observer - in reality, they continue to rotate in their orbit around the Sun.

To understand this phenomenon, you should at least once consciously observe the process of overtaking on the highway. If you are in the fast lane and keep an eye on the car being overtaken. Do you notice that in some certain moment the car you just overtook passes you in the opposite direction, although, of course, you just continue to drive forward along the highway. The movement seems to be reversed because you are going faster than the car you are overtaking.

Venus and Mars only have 7-9 percent of their orbital period in the retrograde phase, Jupiter about 30 percent, and Uranus, Neptune and Pluto 41-44 percent. Thus, the probability that there is at least one retrograde planet in the horoscope is very high.

On the interpretation of backward movement

The influence of backward planets is reflected, first of all, on internal plan human existence. Such planets urge us to first work out the tasks set by these luminaries within ourselves and develop certain abilities before we begin to realize ourselves in the outside world.

Retrograde planets are responsible for developmental delay, which later leads to the emergence of special abilities that allow us to express ourselves in those areas of life for which these planets are responsible.

Mercury Retrograde

For example, the presence of backward Mercury in the horoscope can lead to the fact that such a person will have difficulty or inhibited speech, or he will seem to be notorious. A child with Mercury retrograde in the horoscope will always face the fact that he is misunderstood because he cannot adequately express himself. Such difficulties can develop in him a special susceptibility to his inner experiences, thanks to which he can later learn to subtly feel the language and masterfully handle it.

When retrograde planets again change the direction of their movement to a straight one, this symbolizes a turning point in the fate of a person, when the direction of influence changes from internal level to external.

It is possible to calculate the time when this turning point occurs. One day of the backward movement of the planet after the birth of a person corresponds to one year of life. For example, in retrograde Mercury, influence will pass into a new quality no later than a person turns 21, since Mercury is retrograde for a maximum of 21 days. More precisely time should be taken from the ephemeris.

The influence of retrograde planets is most strongly felt during the stationary phases of retrograde motion. It's about about times when it seems like retrograde planets stand still, because it is at this moment that they just change the direction of their movement. In the stationary phase, their influence is especially strong. These planets challenge us, and only when we accept it, significant changes can occur in our lives.

All the planets, except for the Sun and the Moon (which are also traditionally called planets in astrology), freeze from time to time and begin to back away. They don't actually change direction, it's a visual effect associated with the movement of the Earth. In astrology, such periods are called the retrograde movement of the planet.

On fast planets(Mercury, Venus and Mars) these periods are short. But they are also the most important for us. We feel them vividly, they bring into our life various events, changes and situations.

The slow ones(Jupiter and Saturn) - long, up to six months. An individual person will feel them if he does not live by himself, but is connected with the activities of groups. So, a freelancer vacationing in Goa will not feel them at all, and one who develops his business and is looking for a place for him in a certain segment of business life will even feel it very much. A person who lives in the interests of his family will also remain indifferent to the retrograde of Jupiter and Saturn, and the boss responsible for the team, politician or participant community service will surely notice it. The more active social life of a person, the more important for him are the periods of retrograde social planets.

The transsaturnians(Uranus, Neptune and Pluto) they are not important at all for individual person, and touch global events in politics, economics or natural processes(climate change, earthquakes, etc.).

Mercury Retrograde 2014

Mercury goes retrograde three times a year. Periods of retrograde last about three weeks. Not only the time of the backward movement itself is important, but also the days before and after it. This is not a single phenomenon, but a long cycle. Here are its phases:

Mercury slows down. At this time, the flow of news slows down, it is more difficult to establish a connection, telephones, mail and the Internet fail, decisions take longer. Gemini and Virgo begin to feel worse intellectually, they may have a headache. This happens ten days before Mercury retrograde.

Mercury is stationary. He seems to be standing in one place. This phase lasts 2.5 days before retrograde. These days in the "Mercury" areas - communications, communication, travel, trade, study - nothing happens at all, no matter how hard we try.

Mercury is going retrograde. Its activity is turned inward. The time is well suited for analysis, planning and reflection. In learning, you need to return to repeating the past. There are people with whom we once knew each other, a lost letter may come, or we will find in old papers a forgotten, never found and unread note. During this period, there is no progress, we do not receive news, we do not meet new people, we do not go anywhere. Often there are errors in documents, or even documents are lost. Navigational devices are wrong.

Mercury is stationary. It's 2.5 days before it goes straight again.

Mercury is going straight, but along the path that was already passed before turning around and going back. Lasts a couple of weeks. This period is a test of the strength of everything that happened on retro Mercury. It will become clear whether our plans are viable and whether the analysis has been done correctly. Relations with people from the past are becoming clearer - will we now communicate with them, or there is no point in this. In studies, it is good to use the knowledge that we repeated in the retrograde phase.

Mercury reached the point where it reversed, and goes along new territory. The retrograde period is over.

Retrograde Venus in 2014

Venus goes retrograde once every year and a half, and this period lasts about 40 days. The principle is the same as that of Mercury: freeze, backtrack, freeze again, go forward along the previously traveled path and start moving on.

During Venus retrograde it is difficult for a person to express his feelings, they are all hidden inside and give energy to our emotional experiences and not for the development of love and friendship. We also rethink our idea of ​​beauty, material and emotional values. Tastes, sympathies change, we begin to like something different than usual. Such a change in tastes may pass without a trace when Venus again goes straight, or it may persist. It is not advisable to change the image on retro Venus, then it can disappoint.

We can cool off towards those we sympathize with. But you can’t break off relations: you can regret it later. In love, the retro Venus period is good for understanding relationships and finding ways to improve them. Often, during the period of retro-Venus, beloved ones and most best friends from past life with whom we parted. New relationships during this period will subsequently disappoint.

Mars retrograde in 2014

Mars goes retrograde every two years for 2.5 months. At this time, we will not find a point where we can direct, target our activity. People have a thirst for activity, but it is chaotic, unorganized and does more harm than good. During this period, you should not start playing sports, new business projects and work that requires physical activity(for example, repair).

At this time, conflicts flare up more often on old, already seemingly forgotten reasons, old grievances and claims are recalled. By the way, the aggressors who started the quarrel first will lose it. The backward movement of Mars is suitable for remembering old grievances and constructively solving them, exhausting the misunderstanding completely and leaving dissatisfaction in the past. Also at this time, it’s good to quit boring work and annoying people, which usually lacked determination. This year Mars retrograde will be from March 2 to May 19. retrograde movement Jupiter and Saturn in 2014 Both of these planets cause delays in the work of organizations and in public life. The promise is delayed and obstacles appear. Jupiter retrograde will be from November 7, 2013 to March 2, 2014 and from December 9 (ends in 2015). Saturn retrograde will be from March 3 to July 20.

Retrograde movement or movement back is the path of the planet visible from the Earth. The retrograde effect occurs as a result of the difference in the speeds of the Earth and the planet relative to the Sun. In retrograde motion, the planet repeats its path along the same degrees of the Zodiac, which it has already passed in its direct motion.

From an esoteric point of view, this is a return to the past, turning inward, rethinking the experience gained, slowing down in business.

Astrology allows not only to predict the future, but also to describe a person with the help of planets. This means that each planet has its own character, and each person has an energy that is essentially similar to one or another planet. Perhaps the most interesting thing is to consider women in this context: they are as different as the planets themselves. There are Venus women, Moon women, and even Saturn women (plus at least seven other female types- by the number of main planets and luminaries), and now we ...

Direct motion of the planets

From the book Great Soviet Encyclopedia (PR) of the author TSB

Astrology is a rather complex field. Every planet that plays certain role in compiling a star horoscope, has many features of movement that must be taken into account. A retrograde planet is one of such concepts, based precisely on the movement of a celestial object.

reversing

If you rush along the highway or railway at a sufficiently high speed and overtake a passing vehicle, it creates the feeling that it is standing still or even moving backwards. But this is absolutely not the case, because the car or train moves forward in the same way, but only at its own speed. The illusion, based on the mismatch of the speeds of movement, is so bright that it causes a feeling of moving backwards. So the planets, on the movement and location of which they are built, can also have such supposedly backward movement.

The complex paths along which the planets and stars move in outer space is the basis of astrology. In order to correctly speak of the influence celestial bodies on the character and fate of a person from the point of view of this area of ​​predictions, it is necessary to understand all the subtleties of the movement of planets and stars. The retrograde movement of the planets is possible due to different periods their circulation around the sun, speed and trajectory of movement relative to each other.

Back at different times

Almost all the planets that are taken into account in the compilation astrological chart, except for the Sun and the Moon, can have backward movement. In each case, it has its own meaning, determined by many factors. retrograde planets in natal chart means a return to the past. There may be several of them - up to 5. For example, the planet Mercury is the fastest in terms of backward movement. For three weeks, three times in an earthly year, she acquires reverse stroke. Venus is also one of the fastest planets. Its retrograde manifests itself within 43 days in two years. The planet Mars also retrogrades once every two years, but its period is already 70 days. Distant planets - Uranus, Neptune, Pluto - have retrograde for 5 months a year.

Retrograde movement of planets in human life

Each planet that is taken into account when compiling a natal chart can move backward. But the opinions of astrologers sometimes differ in terms of the specifics of its influence on human life. Some believe that the presence of a backward movement of the planet means a return to past lives with the obligatory indication of unfinished deeds. Others prefer to believe that retrograde planets in the horoscope have only restraining characteristics. In any case, you should not put all the cards only on retrograde planets, even if there are many of them.

The retrograde movement of the planets must always be considered in conjunction with other elements of the natal and karmic charts.

The word "karma" is known to everyone, for many it means the same as "fate", "rock". And the concept of "karma" can be accurately understood if you answer the question: "What does a retrograde planet mean?" Let's figure it out. In a karmic chart, a retrograde planet or several such objects in the sky will mean the unfulfilled deeds of past lives. They will demand their completion and will haunt a person all his life if he does not understand the signs and does not do what he should have done once. Such an unfinished business will affect the whole life, making it difficult to move forward. That is why the backward movement of the planet has a restraining and karmic role in fate and character.

Each retrograde planet manifested in a natal or karmic chart exerts its influence in certain area human life. This is important to consider. Which planets are retrograde, and how they affect fate, you need to figure it out.

Retrograde Mercury

The planet Mercury is responsible, so to speak, for the communicative qualities of a person. If in the natal chart it has a retrograde movement, then the individual will have problems with communication. Retroactive Mercury can cause stuttering, which in any case will affect communication. A person, depending on the influence of other planets, will either not like conversations in principle, or, on the contrary, will not spare words, annoying and annoying those around him. In any case, the action Mercury retrograde it is necessary to carefully work out, reducing its negative and turning the curiosity caused by it, the craving for deep knowledge into virtues.

Retrograde Venus

Venus moving backwards present in natal horoscope, makes a person constrained in his feelings, desires, fantasies. He can never fully understand and understand his feelings caused in the soul. It is difficult for a person in whose horoscope Venus is backward to express his feelings, because he himself does not understand them too clearly. This can apply to all areas of life - from choosing clothes appropriate to the moment, to relationships in the family. The presence of such a sign in the natal horoscope requires careful, scrupulous work on oneself.

If Mars moves backward

Even the ancient Greeks called the god of war Mars, the same name was given to the blood-red planet seen in the sky. Decisiveness, purposefulness - these are the main characteristics of a militant deity. But if in the natal chart Mars has a backward movement, then a person loses these qualities altogether. Indecision, cowardice, lack of initiative - that's what others see in him. Although in fact, a person whose natal chart has Mars retrograde is directed inward, he needs to weigh everything carefully several times before making any decision.

Backward Saturn

Saturn itself is very unusual planet in astrology, it slows everything down. What can we say about retrograde Saturn. In addition, it is worth considering that Saturn is the point of the father's presence in a person's life. If this planet in its backward movement is present in the natal chart of the child, then the father in the life of the baby is either absent altogether, or has only a nominal value. For a girl, Saturn retrograde is reflected in difficulties with marriage. Negative retrograde Saturn decreases either when it returns to the natal position, or in contradiction to it in antiphase.

Jupiter in reverse

The influence of backward Jupiter affects the worldview and worldview of a person in whose natal chart he is present. It is quite difficult for a society to accept a dissident. But on the other hand, it is people with Jupiter retrograde in the natal chart they see a perspective where others simply would not consider anything but a blank wall. An entrepreneurial streak is the main plus of those in whose horoscope Jupiter moves backwards.

A retrograde planet is quite influential in the natal horoscope. It has a deterrent value, rolling back events, giving signs from the past. For many astrologers, the backward move that retrograde planets have in a horoscope is like news from a past life, an undone deed, an unfulfilled destiny.

In order to correctly take into account all the nuances of the movement of the planets, you need to correctly read them, know the features of influence, and be able to combine signs. And it is also important to be able to correctly present information to a person, without driving him into a trap of hopelessness by the backward movement of the planets of the horoscope.
