Notes: Saturn, which has been in Sagittarius for the past 3 years, now moves into its own sign, Capricorn, where it will until January 2023. This transit will be mostly favorable for 9 rising sign persons, companies and countries (including USA).

Gemini, Leo, and Aquarius rising sign persons, however, should be careful and patient – and can safely strengthen Saturn using dark blue colors and wearing a blue sapphire or blue topaz gemstone or the mystical pendant (kavach) — for smoother sailing and to add protective covering to life.

Where the Vedic Astrology Planets are this Week

• Sun transits Capricorn from 08:32 to 15:39°.
• Moon is waning/waxing and transits Sagittarius, Capricorn, Aquarius and into Pisces.
• Mars transits Scorpio, from 19:17 to 24:04°.
• Mercury transits Capricorn, from 16:54 to 28:55°.
• Jupiter transits its own sign, Sagittarius, from 17:36 to 19:09°. Jupiter is closely conjunct Ketu until Jan. 28^th. This connects law, religion, morality, justice, education, banking, consulting and long-distance travel with spirituality. There may, however, also be setbacks and karmic issues with these same significations.
• Venus transits Aquarius, from 17:18 to 25:41°. Venus is under the 4^th aspect of Mars until Feb. 5^th. Taurus, Virgo, and Scorpio rising sign persons, companies and countries should be careful and patient.
• Saturn transits out of Sagittarius and into Capricorn, Jan. 23^rd at 10:22 p.m. CST. Saturn is weak in degrees until March 11th. Take care of the elderly and the poor and needy on Saturdays. Be patient with problems with manufacturing, agriculture and the oil, gas and minerals industries. THIS IS ALSO NOT GOOD FOR THE MASSES, IMMIGRANTS AND WORKING-CLASS PERSONS. More on Saturnʻs transit in next weekʻs column.
• Rahu and Ketu transit Gemini and Sagittarius, respectively, from 14:14 to 13:46°. Rahu and Ketu are stationary in the 14-degree range until January 27^th. This is not ideal for persons, companies and countries with planets in “odd” signs (Aries, Gemini, Leo, Libra, Sagittarius and Aquarius) between 13 and 15 degrees – or for anyone — whenever Rahu or Ketu are within 5 degrees of a rising sign degree (in any house), or any planet (by aspect or conjunction).
