Dynamics of Transit 2016 - Great Cosmic mess - I



The essence of Jyotisha is in the understanding that all is one big system where change at one level has to impact (indicate change) other part as a whole. Movement or transit of planets indicate changing patterns in individual life (as well as on masses, national level, events occurring what we call as natural phenomenon etc.). Now to jump to current topic directly, this year the transit of planets, in particular that of Saturn and Mars along with Rahu and Jupiter is making a pattern which needs attention as its indicating turmoil and restructuring at many levels. This pattern has to be recognized well before one can hope to align his life in most optimal manner. To begin with, here is some data for understanding what’s the broader picture looks like:

Saturn is in Scorpio sign this whole year, Mars is in Scorpio sign till 17th Sept (with small shift in Libra in between).Jupiter is in Leo till 10th August while Rahu too is in Leo for whole year. Now when we take out the subset, it comes out that in months between April to July end, Saturn and Mars will remain in same sign of Scorpio and Jupiter and Rahu will remain in same sign of Leo. For those who understand laymen terms, note that these signs, i.e Scorpio and Leo form a pattern which means all these planets will remain in mutual angles from each other. To add on to the complexity levels, Saturn, Mars and Jupiter will also turn retrograde during these timelines (while Rahu is always retrograde). Now let’s jump to qualitative discussion leaving behind this technical jargon.

So what does this all basically means? Saturn and Mars together in Scorpio signifies high voltage energy (which can also show up as fury of mother nature) which at individual level can cause emotional breakdown, violence ,messing up of things, impulsive patterns and deep restructuring.Jupiter is the planet of idealism and its closeness with Rahu(traditionally called as Guru-Chandaala yoga) signifies evaporation of idealism and propagation of antisocial activities, negative tendencies developing fast, moral decline and desire for dark areas rising. Essence of this yoga is getting driven by ego and losing in temptation and impulses forgetting the duties of present and neglecting the moral grounds all together, which can also be seen as desire for new system in search of more freedom. For clear cut understanding at individual levels, let us now see how this all cosmic mess between the months of April to July can impact us based on Moon signs (key terms/key areas) along with how to deal with it.
