Planetary Transits for April 15th – April 21st

(Interpretations based on the Systemsʻ Approach to Vedic Astrology)

Notes:  Saturn remains within three degrees of the ninth aspect of Rahu until Sept. 19th. Saturn represents the masses, immigrants, working-class persons, the elderly, and the poor and needy – along with manufacturing and agriculture. Rahu represents viruses, poisons, addictions, pandemics, and calamities.  Health care officials are worried about another wave of Covid-19.

Jupiter is now in Aquarius until September 14th. This should be an improvement for nine of the twelve rising signs. Cancer, Virgo and Pisces rising sign persons, companies and countries, (including USA), however, should be careful and patient, as Jupiter is transiting their 8th, 6th, and 12th (inauspicious) houses.
