Planetary Transits September 19 — September 25
(Interpretations based on the Systemsʻ Approach to Vedic Astrology)
Note: Jupiter is in retrograde motion and has returned to its debilitation sign, Capricorn, where it will remain until November 20th. This is not helpful for law, banking, religion, morality, education, publishing, teaching and consulting. (See below for the impact of this transit for each rising sign.)
Sun transits Virgo, from 2:19 – 9:10°. Sun is under the close fifth aspect of Rahu September 21 — 30. Presidents, leaders, physicians, administrators and governments should be careful and patient. Sun is closely conjunct Mars, September 22 – October 22. Taurus, Virgo, and Scorpio rising sign persons, companies, and countries should be careful and patient.
Moon is waning/waxing and transits Aquarius, Pisces, Aries, and into Taurus. The full Moon is in the sign of Pisces, September 20 at 6:54 p.m., CDT.
Mars transits Virgo, from 8:33 – 13:06°. Mars is under the close fifth aspect of Rahu until September 27. The military, police, surgeons, athletes, realtors, executives, engineers, firefighters and construction workers should be careful and patient. Mars is closely conjunct Sun, September 20 – October 22. Virgo, Capricorn, and Pisces rising sign persons, companies, and countries should be careful and patient.
Mercury transits out of Virgo and into Libra, September 21 at 9:40 p.m. CDT. Mercury is weak in degrees until October 7. Be patient with stocks, business, writing, communications, technology and intellectual property. Mercury is under the close ninth aspect of Jupiter until October 8. Taurus, Cancer, and Capricorn rising sign persons, companies, and countries (including USA) should be careful and patient.
Jupiter transits Capricorn, from 29:32 – 28:58°. Jupiter is in retrograde motion until October 18. The adverse effects are primarily for Taurus, Cancer and Capricorn rising sign persons — but only when Jupiter is within five degrees of their rising sign degree (in any house) or another planet by aspect or conjunction, in either the birth chart or transit chart.
Venus transits its own sign, Libra, from 15:24 – 23:19°. This should be favorable for women, design, fashion, medicine, luxuries, advertising, photography, entertainment and the fine, healing and performing arts. Venus moves away from the close tenth aspect of Saturn on September 21. This should be helpful for Cancer, Virgo, and Pisces rising sign persons, companies, and countries (including USA).
Saturn transits its own sign, Capricorn from 13:06 – 12:54°. Saturn remains under the close ninth aspect of Rahu through October 20. This is not ideal for the masses, the elderly, the poor and needy, working-class persons and immigrants. Manufacturing, agriculture, and the oil, gas and minerals industries – along with things of the earth — are also vulnerable.
Saturn remains in retrograde motion until October 10th. Retrograde Saturn is adverse primarily only for Cancer, Virgo and Pisces rising sign persons, companies and countries (including USA) – and only when Saturn is within five degrees of the rising sign degree (in any house) or another planet by aspect or conjunction, in either the birth chart or transit chart.
Rahu and Ketu transit their exaltation signs Taurus and Scorpio, respectively, from 10:05 – 9:15°. People, companies and countries with a rising sign between 7 to 11 degrees — or with any planets in even signs (Taurus, Cancer, Virgo, Scorpio, Capricorn and Pisces) in these same degrees, should be careful and patient.
