( Saturn entered Virgo on Sep 09 , 2009 and will stay there for 2 ½ years,

as a Saturnine cycle is 30 years. This happens at 0038 Hrs IST, and it

brings the end of Elarata Saturn for Cancer and 8th Saturn transit for

Capricorn. He is beneficial to Cancer, Aries and Scorpio. Invariably all

astrological discussions ultimately leads to Saturn, which is the planet of

Destiny, Melancholy and Retribution. He implements the Universal Law of

Karma ).

Saturn teaches us frugality, simplicity and humility. He teaches us the

value of time. He is a great taskmaster and He brings in a sense of

discipline in our lives. He is not an evil Karma account keeper, as most

imagine. If you take a loan, you have to pay interest. Similarly you have to

pay for your wages. Saturn purges you of your sins and leads you to Self

Actualisation !

Most of the things that have gone wrong with the world - the Great Recession

& political chaos - can be attributed to Saturn in Leo. The cold Saturn in

the fiery constellation of Leo did not augur well for the world. Financial

stringency and crisis, chaotic weather, accidents that were frequent, high

failure rates of governments responding to crisis are all the works of

Saturn in Leo. So the world looks forward to Sep 09th, when He transits to

Virgo !

Moon Sign - Is the Zodiacal sign where your Moon is posited in your sidereal

horoscope.

Here we give the effects of Transit Saturn for different Astrology Signs.

Moon Sign Virgo

Saturn is highly adverse in the First. All sorts of strife and afflictions

will visit you. ( Nana Roga Shucham ). Fear from poison or fire, of friends

and family members., fear of incarceration, travel to foreign lands, loss of

money ,near and dear ones. Fear of vicious enemies, destruction of

agriculture, monetary quarrels and litigation, loss in agriculture,

separation from kith and kin and suffering from insults. You become gloomy

and melancholic as problems overwhelm you. Melancholy will mark you for her

own. Waste of time, waste of money, waste of effort etc characterise this

Saturnine period. There may be change of location, dissipation of wealth and

factors detrimental to health crop up. Be careful about health and wealth.

Moon Sign Leo

The first five years were intensely agonising and the next 2 1/2 years (

this phase ) will give some relief. But you are forewarned that Elarata

Saturn is not over. Again there will be many tests and tribulations till

2006. Destruction to wealth and happiness indicated ( Sukhartha Vihathim ).

Loss of position, great expenditure, health hazards and transfer to some

other place indicated. Emaciated physical appearance, loss of comfort,

acquisition but not enjoyment of wealth.

Moon Sign Cancer

Saturn turns benign and blesses you with many favours. There will be gain

of position and subordinates ( Sthanartha Bhrithyadhikam ). Financial

condition improves. All that you lost during his stay in the 12th, Ist and

2nd will be redeemed. You get political connections and favours from

politicians. Luck in gambling indicated. Stock exchange, jackpot and

lotteries should be tried. Why not take advantage of this benign Saturnine

stance ?

Moon Sign Gemini

Saturn turns adverse in the 4th. There will be a dearth of happiness (

Sthree Bandhastha Sukhachyuthim ). Mental peace and happiness takes a

beating. This period is known as Angular Saturn or Kandaka Sani. The 4th

Refers to domestic happiness . Domestic happiness becomes a scarce

commodity. Relatives become enemies and mental tension increases. Separation

from friends and family members, suspicious nature, crooked behaviour and

wicked acts.

Moon Sign Taurus

and happiness ( Dhana Sukha Bramsam ). Mind becomes a pot of mental turmoil

to progress vanish. You get the favour of politicians and powerful people.

gives all round happiness becomes favourably posited. Favour from enemies

and diseases & association with the fair sex. All your enemies will be

subjugated ( Sapathna Kshayam ).

Moon Sign Pisces

Saturn is in the adverse 7th now. This is called Kandaka Sani or Angular

Saturn. Mental peace and happiness gets affected. Misunderstanding with

loved ones cannot be ruled out. As the seventh house represents spouse,

Saturn's position therein is not good from the perspective of conjugal

happiness. Separation from wife and children and aimless roaming about.

There may be tendencies for long travel and to move away from one's own

place.

Moon Sign Aquarius

Saturn is extremely malefic in the 8th. All sorts of impediments and

obstacles crop up in your path. Melancholy marks you for her own during this

dark phase .Misunderstandings with loved ones. Enemy trouble indicated. You

are forewarned to avoid arguments and unnecessary speculation. This is not

the ideal time to speculate. Also be careful in handling human relations.

Indulgence in mean activities is the result and you will be bereft of

happiness. There will be sorrow and loss in the financial sphere ( Analpa

Dukha Nichayam ). Dhanakshayam or unnecessary expenditure will characterise

this period.

Moon Sign Capricorn

Saturn may cause financial tightness. Obstacles and mental worry. Suffers

from hatred ,heart trouble and even imprisonment. There will be tendencies

to move away from Wisdom and the Law ( Dharma Pranasa Mayan ). This is the

ideal time for Meditation and to enjoy the bliss of the Self.

Moon Sign Sagittarius

Saturn causes loss in the financial sphere ( Daridram ). Be careful about

speculation and investment. Gets new avocations but loses money and fame.

This is a bad phase temporarily and is called Angular Saturn. Mind becomes

perturbed as a result of an adverse Saturnine stance. You can recourse to

Remedial Astrology for solace.

Moon Sign Scorpio

This is a prosperous period as Saturn turns benign and blesses you with

financial and educational gains. Your assets will increase. And so will

goodwill and reputation. Your merits will be extolled. If you speculate, you

may come up with flying colours. Monetary windfall can be expected from the

stock market. Birth of a son and general happiness. If you take the proper

calculated risks, you can get gain from the stock market and jackpot. (

Dhana labham ).

Moon Sign Libra - In the 12th, Saturn marks the beginning of Elarata Saturn

( His 7 1/2 adverse period.) Everything goes topsy turvy. Do not take

unnecessary risks as this period is highly adverse. Dangers to health &

wealth indicated. Transfer to some other area is also possible. Be careful

about handling money as Saturn can damage your purse ( Artha Vihathim ).

Astro-Therapy for Saturnine Transit

Saturn is the second biggest planet in the solar system. ( 700 earths can be

fit into Saturn ) & his transit is indeed very important to the astrological

fraternity. As he is the planet of Ayus or Longevity, his transits can make

or break you, healthwise. He also rules Death & diseases. In Medical

Astrology, he rules the Vayu Tattwa, the Air Principle in the body

physiologic ( as the human body is made up of the Five Great Elements ).

Arthritis, paralysis & epilepsy, loss of appetite & the diseases caused by

deficiency of the Air Element are caused by him. He represents Sorrow, the

Sorrow of the Cosmic Man, the sorrow inherent in the act of Manifestation.

He represents the masses and is the planet of Democracy and Communism. He is

the Celestial Judge of all actions. He is the planet of Boundless Time,

Eternity. He is also the Death planet (Mrityur Vyadhischa Dukham Shanirapi

Gadhitham ). He can elevate you to dizzy heights and at the same time hurl

you into the abyss of dissolution. He creates fear of enemies. He causes

quarrels related to money and destruction of agriculture. His satellite

Gulika ( mythologically represented as his son ) is another highly malefic

planet. ( Akhila Mrityu Samhara Karako Mandi ). In Horary Astrology

Readings , if both Saturn and Gulika are together, it spells big trouble for

the querent. If they are together in the 4th, it can indicate a disease of

the location, like cancer ! ( "Cancer is a disease of the location" - Dr

Hartman )

Origin of Gulika

There is an interesting story about the origin of his son, Gulika. Ravana

, a person of immense occult power, commanded Saturn to come and stay in the

11th House of his son, Indrajith, the 11th House being the best house for

Saturn to be in. Saturn, with his innate laziness, came and stayed at the

11th house but put his foot in the 12th ( the worst house for Saturn to be

in ). An enraged Ravana cut off his leg and the entire mass of blood and

bones went and stayed at the Ascendant ( Lagna ) as Gulika !

Saturnine Transit is adverse for Houses 1, 2, 4,5,7,8,9, 10 & 12 - Virgo,

Leo, Libra, Gemini, Pisces, Taurus, Aquarius, Capricorn, Sagittarius, &

Gemini, being the Astrology Signs that are affected.

He is benevolent for Houses 3, 6 & 11 - Scorpio, Aries & Cancer

Note - The above results are general and they should be carefully applied to

individual horoscopes in the light of directional influences ( Dasa ). For

example, if there are no powerful yogas in the radical chart , reputation

wealth & fame denoted by a transit will have a very limited scope for

expression. On the other hand, if both directional & transit influences are

adverse, even the longevity of the native will be threatened.

For human beings there are 100 types of Apamrityu or temporal death periods

and one Kala Mrityu or genuine Death period. The transitory death period or

Apamrityu can be warded off by Remedial Astrology, by Homa & other divine

remedial measures, whereas Kala Mrityu or genuine Death cannot be warded

off, says Vedic Astrology Readings.

Aries & Cancer people - Take this opportunity of a favourable Saturnine

Transit and prosper. You have to channelise your energies in a special way.
