The word \u2018Retrograde\u2019 has to be first understood. Why the word \u2018Retrograde\u2019? The English dictionary defines the word \u2018Retrograde\u2019 as moving backward. In more explanatory terms \u2013 the word Retrograde means\u00a0\u201cto go back on the progress that has been made.\u201d<\/strong><\/p>

A man is in a relationship. Venus matters when it comes to relationships. Venus is going retrograde \u2013 now the same man would look back on the progress that has been made in his relationship \u2013 maybe he may just sit back \u2013 maybe a certain question would arise \u2013 the woman would want to get married \u2013 the man is not ready \u2013 he wants to take his own time to make a decision \u2013 sometimes both of them \u2013 go into a retro-mood \u2013 and start analyzing \u2013 the many good and challenging points of their relationship \u2013 so you see \u2013 nothing is moving ahead \u2013 the relationship has come to a point of halt \u2013 it is going slow, backward \u2013 in rounds and rounds of thoughts \u2013 that\u2019s retrogression \u2013\u00a0\u201cto go back on the progress that has been made.\u201d<\/strong><\/p>

Right now Planet Venus is still in the sign of Libra from last 3.5 months. When in reality Venus transits a zodiac sign in just 28 days! But this year (2018) \u2013 Venus went retrograde from October 5th to November 16th! And so imagine \u2013 how many relationships would be going through a retrogression mode? I personally have received almost over 100 cases \u2013 where either there has been a break-up, or relationship is going through certain hurdles. So you see \u2013 retrogression is \u2018state\u2019 that is neither good nor bad.\u00a0It all depends on the progress you have made so far!<\/strong><\/p>

In reality \u2013 a planet to whom we address as a Retrograde planet is NOT going backward \u2013 let this be very clear. This is deep, and this is of significance.<\/p>

In reality \u2013 such a planet has simply slowed down \u2013 somewhere the energy of the planet has slowed down \u2013\u00a0who slows down the energy<\/em>\u00a0\u2013 and to this \u2013 no one has found an answer \u2013 even the scientists are scratching their heads but no specific answer has been found so far! But our ancient seers and saints had. The energy to which we address as God \u2013\u00a0God-consciousness!<\/strong><\/p>

The Whole Universal Consciousness Created The Individual Conscious Of Each Of Us, Experiencing Itself From Different Perspectives, – In Which Each Of Us Create The Life We Experience<\/strong><\/p><\/blockquote>

The divine God-consciousness to which many addresses as \u2013 Krishna-Consciousness (ISKON) or Christ-Consciousness is the energy that impacts the slowing down (in our words \u2013 retrograde)of the Planet! The Planet is not moving backward \u2013 rather it has just slowed down \u2013 in life \u2013 God slows down us as well \u2013 is that bad? No, it is a blessing in disguise \u2013 because in this slowing down \u2013 in this state of retrogression \u2013 God simply wants you to sit back, introspect, meditate and understand who you are, what is it that you are doing, through this retrograde state \u2013 God is simply giving you \u2018window\u2019 of opportunity to discover your true self \u2013 a rarest of the rare opportunity to transform yourself \u2013 to make you *revisit* the matters of life so that you understand what works for you and what doesn\u2019t! It is during the retrogression period that you come to a state where\u00a0much has to be cut, much has to be dropped. Only the very essential has to be saved; the nonessential has to be completely destroyed.<\/strong><\/p>

And by the time you come out of retrograde state \u2013 you have got much clarity on what works for you and what isn\u2019t \u2013 whether it is a relationship \u2013 or office matters, or family matters or even enemy matters! At the end of retrogression \u2013 you are slowly coming towards a conclusion \u2013 to where you want to head?<\/p>

Mercury goes retrograde almost many times in a year. I had a friend, she was the Director of an IT company in the US. During one my trip to the US \u2013 during one conversation with her, I realized how much she gets worried when Mercury goes retrograde! And that is understandable \u2013 one certainly should not make any decisions \u2013 when Mercury goes retrograde \u2013 the period of retrogression is to analyze, look within, turn inwards \u2013 to find answers to a certain query, a certain project that you may have in your hands, it is, in fact, a great time to brainstorm on an idea \u2013 but not make a decision \u2013 it is only after the brainstorm \u2013 after the revisiting \u2013 after the retrograde state \u2013 that a good decision can be made! So \u2013 RETROGRADE PERIOD \u2013 use it for decision-making \u2013 but DECIDE only when the Planet is no more retrograde but have become Direct. Let a week pass after the retrogression period is over and then make a decision!<\/p>

Now \u2013 when you have a Retrograde Planet itself in your Birth Chart \u2013 tell me \u2013 how would you look at it? It is simply a signal that this human life of yours have certain \u2018matters of life\u2019 that you got to REVISIT, RETROSPECT, REVIVE. It is a \u2018left-over\u2019 Karma of your PAST LIFE \u2013 and this human life has been bestowed upon you \u2013 so that you complete the unfinished business of your past life! Remember \u2013 everybody is born to pay for their past life karma \u2013 but in retrograde case \u2013 it is not about paying the dues \u2013 it is revisiting the unfinished Karma \u2013 and ensuring that is finished \u2013 and in reality, it does finish because of the existence \u2013 the existence ensures that the cosmic law is justified.<\/p>

What is the difference \u2013 retrograde and normal state of the planet?<\/p>

Retrograde example \u2013 A young man is getting ready to marry the love of his life \u2013 and suddenly he goes back on his decision \u2013 he runs away from his marriage. Now what? This man is reborn with certain retrograde planetary placement around his marriage<\/a> aspects\/house \u2013 where it determines \u2013 that now the unfinished business of marriage has to be addressed \u2013 the marriage has to take place for the native (soul) to move on with his cycle of birth and rebirth!<\/p>

Normal example \u2013 Here the story has moved on \u2013 the young man has gone ahead, married the love of his life \u2013 now \u2013 how he lived his married life \u2013 whether he was loyal to his love, whether he was a good husband \u2013 whatever the quality of karma related to his marriage \u2013 will be seen in his next birth chart when he is reborn. Here you will see no sign of a retrograde planet in regards to his marriage. Here he is simply made to pay his dues \u2013 if he was a good husband \u2013 he will be getting a positive placement for his marriage \u2013 if not then accordingly he would be put to \u2018task\u2019! So in a normal state of planets \u2013 the story of life is moving on \u2013 progressing \u2013 but in retrograde \u2013 it has\u00a0\u201cto go back on the progress that has been made.\u201d<\/strong><\/p>

A man or woman with a retrograde planet has NOT gone all the way \u2013 at some point, they have quit \u2013 and so now they have come in this human world to FINISH the unfinished business that they had quit in their last human life.<\/p>

If you must begin then go all the way. because if you begin and quit, the unfinished business you have left behind begins to haunt you all the time.<\/strong><\/p><\/blockquote>

And generally, it is found \u2013 that these retrograde community of individuals complete the unfinished business that they had left behind (past-life).<\/p>

A whole birth \u2013 a whole human life is awarded to them \u2013 just so that they can address the unfinished business of their last life \u2013 and so usually they do meet success in it.<\/p>

Unfinished business \u2013 but related to what aspect of life? This is understood from the planet and the house it is placed in!<\/p>

In your case \u2013 the Jupiter in 6th House\u2013 determines many parts of human life and human affairs \u2013 but on a higher level and from a positive angle \u2013 it has more to do with SERVICE \u2013 to SERVE! Somewhere the native has quit from serving someone \u2013 now who is this someone \u2013 for that other aspects are necessary to understand. But the core point is to SERVE \u2013 to FORGIVE enemies \u2013 to either finish certain disputes by being MORE COMPASSIONATE \u2013 MORE UNDERSTANDING in your daily routine life. It is also an indication that one must demonstrate loyalty towards those who provide him with employment. Since Jupiter is a planet of compassion and love \u2013 here \u2013 the message is simple \u2013 BE MORE and MORE Kind \u2013 do not indulge in REVENGEFUL ACTS \u2013 learn to live in a LET-GO!<\/p>

Let-go is a deep understanding of the phenomenon that we are part of one existence. We cannot afford to have separate egos; we are one with all. And the all is vast, immense. – Osho<\/strong><\/p><\/blockquote>

Your understanding will help you to go with the whole, wherever it is going. You do not have a goal separate from the whole, and the whole has no goal. It is not going anywhere.<\/p>

Albert Einstein is the only scientist \u2013 who had realized the true essence of the universe \u2013 of the\u00a0\u2018whole\u2019!<\/strong><\/p>

A human being is a part of the whole called by us universe, a part limited in time and space. He experiences himself, his thoughts and feeling as something separated from the rest, a kind of optical delusion of his consciousness. This delusion is a kind of prison for us, restricting us to our personal desires and to affection for a few persons nearest to us. Our task must be to free ourselves from this prison by widening our circle of compassion to embrace all living creatures and the whole of nature in its beauty. – Albert Einstein<\/strong><\/p><\/blockquote>

The understanding of let-go helps you to be here, without any goals, without any idea of achievement, without any conflict, struggle or fight, knowing that it is the fighting with yourself which is simply foolish.<\/p>

To meditate is to LET-GO!<\/p>

Meditation is a surrender, it is not a demand. It is not forcing existence your way, it is relaxing into the way existence wants you to be. It is a let go. – Osho<\/strong><\/p><\/blockquote>

A man with a retrograde planet in the SIXTH \u2013 should learn to live in a LET-GO. Existence wants you to LET-GO of all your disputes, your misunderstanding, your unfinished grudges, and enmities \u2013 existence wants you to come out clean and the only way to come out clean \u2013 is to simply stop reacting and learn to live in total acceptance \u2013 and that is what the Buddhists call \u2013 Tathata! Tathata is to live in suchness \u2013 such are the things \u2013 such is the situation \u2013 there is simply no question of accepting or rejecting \u2013 you simply live in suchness \u2013 TATHATA! And a man who lives in suchness is called\u00a0Tathagata!<\/strong><\/p>

To learn to live in a let-go \u2013 you have to first \u2013 find yourself and you will be able to find yourself only when you lose yourself in the\u00a0service\u00a0<\/strong>of others!<\/p>

The best way to find yourself is to lose yourself in the service of others. – Mahatama Gandhi<\/strong><\/p><\/blockquote>

When going through the Mahadasha<\/a> of any retrograde planet \u2013 remember you have to be more understanding, more meditative and you have to learn to Let-Go \u2013 the period of a retrograde planet is your testing time \u2013 and you will pass only if you REACT LESS and RESPOND MORE! Certain unfinished matters of the retrograde planet will come to you \u2013 and so you have to be more humble, more compassionate and more serving towards others. Serving because in your case it is the Jupiter in 6th Housee!<\/p>

The sixth house is the house of service! Serve more and more people \u2013\u00a0selflessly<\/em><\/strong>\u00a0\u2013 don\u2019t run away from the\u00a0responsibility of serving\u00a0<\/strong>and soon your next life the matters of the sixth house and the house ruled by Jupiter would be no more in the state of Retrograde \u2013 but flowing profusely \u2013 like a beautiful\u00a0running river!<\/em><\/p>
