How is Saturn’s transit through Libra for you? – Taurus

Free Vedic astrology article 2011

The transit of Jupiter in Aries and Saturn in Libra is a rare event that happens only once in 360 years. The last time it happened was when the British were setting up shop in India. In 1650 Gabriel Boughton an employee of the East India Company obtained a license for trade in Bengal. An English factory was set up in 1651 at Hugli. We all know what happened after that.

The accepted practice while delineating the effects of planetary transits is to consider these from the birth Moon. It is true for Saturn as well. I am however giving the results of the combined transit of Jupiter and Saturn from the birth ascendant also, and this needs some clarification. 

Jupiter opposite exalted Saturn is always a momentous event because Jupiter who represents the divine law gets in a sign exactly opposite to Saturn who delivers justice. Since Saturn is transiting the sign of scales and is exalted, the justice is fair, just and complete. It is for this reason that I am giving the transit effects of these two planets both from the ascendant as well as the Moon sign or Rashi.

Taurus ascendant 

For Taurus ascendant, the third house aspect of Saturn falls on the eighth house and causes some health issues but these are resolved easily. The eighth house also comes under the aspect of Jupiter in Aries and painted by the combined energies of two massive planets indicates some changes connected to this house. Foreign travel, death, dishonor and scrotum fall under the domain of the eighth house. Depending upon the placement of planets in the horoscope and the Dasha Bhukti in operation, one or more of these effects will manifest. Those desiring travel abroad may find the going easier.

The seventh aspect falls on the twelfth house and promotes prosperity by curtailing expenses.

The tenth house aspect falls on the third house and gives interesting results. The third house is the eighth house from eighth and hence represents poverty. Saturn’s influence thus promotes wealth.

Jupiter is at this point of time is transiting the twelfth house and the sixth as well as the twelfth houses are energized due to the combined energies of Jupiter and Saturn. Both of these thus become ready for a change. Innocent people who have been framed and are languishing in prison will have relief as new evidence is unearthed proving their innocence. Those who have somehow escaped the law will now find a secure place behind the bars.

Relief from some chronic disease is likely for those who have been suffering for long. This may happen as new drugs and procedures are invented. 

Jupiter is a planet of spirituality and twelfth house represents the after world. This transit of two major planets thus signifies some distinct spiritual progress. Saturn represents renunciation and the twelfth house amongst other things signifies Moksha. This will result in an active involvement with Vedanta and Hinduism. Ketu’s movement into Aries in January 2013 will accentuate this trend.

Taurus Rashi- Moon in Taurus

For those who have Moon in Taurus, Saturn transits the sixth house from Moon. Sixth house represents loans, sickness, enemies and scarcity, and Saturn is a planet of separation. His transit therefore removes these negatives and brings in wealth, prosperity and happiness. Victory in legal matters and acquisition of Real estate is acquired during this phase. excellent health. Enjoyment of the company of the opposite sex cause happiness.

How is Saturn’s transit through Libra for you? Aries

Free Vedic astrology article

The accepted practice while delineating the effects of planetary transits is to consider these from the birth Moon. It is true for Saturn as well. I am however giving the results of the combined transit of Jupiter and Saturn from the birth ascendant as well, and this needs some clarification. 

The transit of Jupiter in Aries and Saturn in Libra is a rare event that happens only once in 360 years. The last time it happened was when the British were setting up shop in India. In 1650 Gabriel Boughton an employee of the East India Company obtained a license for trade in Bengal. An English factory was set up in 1651 at Hugli. We all know what happened after that.

Jupiter opposite exalted Saturn is always a momentous event because Jupiter who represents the divine law gets in a sign exactly opposite to Saturn who delivers justice. Since Saturn is transiting the sign of scales and is exalted, the justice is fair, just and complete.

It is for this reason that I am giving the transit effects of these two planets both from the ascendant as well as the Moon sign or Rashi.

Aries Ascendant

Libra becomes the seventh house for those with Moon in Aries. Saturn therefore transits the house of relationships. Jupiter is already transiting the ascendant, and the combined energies of the two major planets are illuminating the house of self as well as relationships. It is therefore certain that some changes in the relationship area are waiting to happen. Those who have been single so far will get the urge and the opportunities to find a partner. An existing friendship may jump to a higher orbit or even marriage.

Jupiter in the ascendant aspects the fifth, the seventh and the ninth houses. Saturn in the seventh also aspects the ninth house, and under the combined energies of Jupiter and Saturn that too becomes pliant for change. A stroke of good fortune is quite possible, as is the likelihood of going on a long journey or pilgrimage. Spirituality attracts you strongly during this phase as the ninth house stands for the father or a Guru. The Dasha Bhukti operating in the chart will give further clues as to the type and manner of the changes.

The tenth house aspect of Saturn falls on the fourth house, and Jupiter is placed in the tenth from it. Although Jupiter does not aspect the fourth house directly, it is nevertheless affected by the placement of Jupiter in the tenth house from it. There may be some changes connected to the place of residence. There may be remodeling for some, while others may change residence.

If the Dasha Bhukti operating in the horoscope is favorable, this transit can bring some deep and lasting changes in life. People with Libra, Taurus, Capricorn and Aquarius ascendants will be more fortunate than others. Gemini and Virgo ascendants will also benefit albeit to a lesser extent.

For those horoscopes where the rising sign is Aries and Moon is placed in the ascendant, the effects will manifest with greater magnitude.

Aries Rashi or the Moon sign

On his own the results of Saturn passing through the seventh houses are good as he gets Paya of copper. He will give receipt of happy news, success in all spheres, gains from government and financial prosperity.

Life partner may suffer from wind related complaints in the stomach. Separation due to one reason or another is likely. Marital happiness is generally lessened at this time. This is not a time for sexual promiscuity and unprotected sex as chances of a sexually transmitted disease are higher now. Driving requires extreme caution especially if traveling long distances.

How will Saturn's transit through Libra affect you?

Saturn will enter Libra on November 15, 2011 at 14.28 hours and it will be a momentous event in every one’s life. For next thirty months Saturn will slowly transit through this sign. Libra is Saturn’s sign of exaltation and Saturn’s significations find their best expression in this sign.

Saturn acts as a channel that brings our past life Karma – both good and bad – to us. Since the planet is transiting his sign of extreme power, the Karma channeled to us will hit us with great force. The good results will be munificent and the bad ones excruciating.

The results of this transit are determined through the Moon chart which is nothing but the birth chart where the Moon sign replaces the birth ascendant. The rest of the signs fall sequentially. For example if Moon is placed in Scorpio, then Scorpio becomes the ascendant in the Moon Chart and the signs following, Sagittarius, Capricorn etc. are copied verbatim from the birth chart. The transit results of all planets are primarily seen from the Moon Chart.

Some simple tools are used to quantify the good and bad results of transiting Saturn. The first of these is the Charan or the feet of Saturn as he enters a house during the transit. Depending upon the fruitfulness of the visit the Charan are termed as Gold, Silver, Copper or Iron. The following table will make it clear. Paya is a synonym for Charan.

Shani Charan Vichar
Transit position	Paya	Results
1st, 6th, 11th from Janma Chandra	Gold	Strained relations with extended family, financial drain, false accusations.
2nd, 5th,  9th from Janma Chandra	Silver	Gains of/from real estate, smooth relations with extended family, gains from government.
3rd, 7th, 10th from Janma Chandra	Copper	Receipt of happy news, success in all spheres, gains from government, financial prosperity.
4th, 8th, 12th from Janma Chandra	Iron	Domestic troubles and unhappiness, Losses in business and profession, unsound health and strained relations with relatives. Enemies create troubles.

Let us use this table for the first Rashi Aries. Saturn enters Libra which happens to be the seventh sign from Aries. From the table we see that Saturn has the feet of copper, and this transit bestows generally good results. All this will happen, but will be tempered by the Dasha Bhukti running in the horoscope at the time. The results will be augmented or weakened by the trends of the planetary period.

There is another method which uses the Nakshatra position of Saturn to gauge his results. This is more accurate as Nakshatra is a smaller segment and one can monitor the changes as Saturn moves ahead.

Find out the Nakshatra that Saturn is currently in, and calculate its distance from the Nakshatra where Moon was at birth. Then look at the result corresponding to that number.

This table is according to the rules laid down by Sripati. Some other scholars have different views.

1	In the mouth	Peace and prosperity
2,3	In the anus	Fear of ill health, anxiety and fears
4,5	In the eyes	Anxious mind but success in all ventures
6,7,8	On the head	Gains, happiness and gain of status
9-13	In the arm pits	Gain of health, peace and happiness
14-17	On the Right hand	Worry, mental tension
18-23	Both feet	Physical distress
24-27	On the Left hand	Auspicious events, happiness, gains

Let us see how this is done. Let us take a horoscope where Moon is placed in Ashwini Nakshatra in Aries. On 15^th November as Saturn enters Libra he will be placed in Chitra Nakshatra. Chitra when calculated from Ashwini happens to be the fourteenth Nakshatra. The table shows that from 14-17 Nakshatra the results show worry and mental tension, and these will prevail in some measure.

The results of the above two tables may seem at variance with each other but a closer scrutiny will clear the fog. The first table pertains to the two and a half year period while the second one to smaller segments of time. Saturn is constantly moving and the results will keep changing with his motion.

Generally speaking, the effects of transit Saturn are adverse during his movement through the fifth and the eighth house. Let us analyze this in greater detail.

Saturn is a planet of separation and his association or aspect on a planet or a house tends to separate a person from the things associated with that house. In the case of the transit through the fifth house, the presence of Saturn in the fifth house of children, speculation and stomach/uterus creates a problem to all these issues. Children’s health and welfare becomes a concern, and speculation of all sorts leads to losses. One suffers from wind related complaints in the stomach. In the case of women, uterus may become a problem area, and if pregnant, great care is warranted.

The third aspect of Saturn falls on the seventh house of relationships and tends to destabilize it. If married, a person will have a turbulent time. A live in relationship will capsize during this period if the Dasha Bhukti is also adverse.

The seventh aspect of Saturn falls on the eleventh house of financial gains and tends to separate a person from income of all sorts. Financially this becomes a tough time.

The tenth aspect of Saturn falls on the second house of wealth and savings and tends to deplete the bank account. Credit cards are maxed during this phase and there is a steady attrition of the bank balance. Sound sleep becomes a stranger as one gropes for a solution to make ends meet.

In the case of Saturn’s transit through the eighth house, If Saturn is not the lord of the house; this transit causes disease and accidents.

In this case, the third house aspect of Saturn falls on the tenth house and creates a wobble in the professional and social status. The seventh aspect falls on the second house of wealth and causes depletion and attrition of credit card credit and bank balance. The tenth house aspect falls on the fifth house and creates problem identical to those mentioned above. All in all this is a vexing transit.

The discerning reader will at once ask the reason for variance between what has been written here and the results given in the first table given above. The answer is that both will manifest, and the net results will be an amalgam of the two. Life is after all a patchwork quilt of varied past Karmas stitched together.

There is another feature which needs to be considered here and that is house ownership of Saturn in the birth chart, as this too influences the net effects of the Saturn transit.

In a given chart, Saturn will be a neutral, beneficial Yog Karak or inimical planet. If he is beneficial, his exalted transit in Libra will increase his beneficence. For example for Aries ascendant, Saturn placed in the seventh, fourth or the fifth house is considered beneficial. Because Saturn is transiting the sign of his exaltation, this benefit will manifest even more for the next thirty months. Same is true for malefic Saturn. These results need to be assimilated with those obtaining elsewhere.

In the next Blog we will take all signs from Aries to Pisces and assess how each sign is affected.
