The week ahed

There is a New Moon in the sensitive and spiritual sign of Pisces this week. Pisces is not the most practical sign in the zodiac, but it is the most intuitive. Therefore, this is not a good week for you to make any major life-decisions such as buying a new house or going back to school.

It is, however, an excellent week for you to get in touch with your feelings, creativity and spirituality. Pisces rules music and films as well, so, meditating, listening to music and going to the movies would all be very appropriate and fulfilling pastimes this week. It's a great time to leave the bill-paying and house-cleaning for another time!

Queries Answered

What is the effect of a retrograde planet in exalted position especially when it happens to be the lord of Lagna in a native's horoscope?

S. Kirupa Shankar, Chennai.

Astrological texts indicate that a planet in retrogression ,particularly Jupiter, may be considered to be in exaltation in certain circumstances. We must also see in which House the lord of Lagna is exalted and is in retrogression. Consider Thula Lagna's lord, Venus, in exaltation in Meena which is the 6th House. For Dhanur Lagna native, Jupiter, in exaltation and retrogression will be in the 8th House. The Sixth and Eighth are not auspicious places for lord of the Lagna. We need to see what aspects are cast on the Lagna and its lord.

The combination of these factors will produce results which will be particularly noticeable in the Maha Dasa and the Bhukthis of the particular planet.
