Special Aspects of Retro Planet

A few years ago, I was sitting in one of Deepanshu Sir’s most awaited classes—the kind that had every astrology enthusiast glued to the screen. The topic? Special planetary positions like combustion, retrogradation, exaltation, debilitation, and so on.
These weren’t just textbook definitions; Sir was diving into them with razor-sharp predictions, something you rarely find covered in such depth, even on YouTube.

Somewhere in between the lesson, Sir leaned in and dropped a gem—a technique straight from Sanket Nidhi. He explained that when a planet turns retrograde, it doesn’t just behave differently—it casts a very special influence on a specific house from its own position.

Here’s what he revealed:

• Mars – influences the 3rd house from itself
• Jupiter – influences the 5th house from itself
• Saturn – influences the 9th house from itself
• …and so on.

I remember thinking, Alright, sounds interesting… but does it really work?
So, I began testing it in chart after chart. And let me tell you—these results don’t fail. Ever.

Let me share a few examples that will make you see what I mean:

• Mars Retrograde in Lagna: Such people are driven, restless in the best way possible, always learning something new. Skills come to them as if they’ve known them for lifetimes. That’s Mars activating the 3rd house—hard work, hobbies, learning.
• Mars Retrograde in 6th House: I’ve seen these natives become the “discipline police” for their spouse—changing their eating habits, tracking expenses, tidying up finances. Why? Because Mars is activating the 8th house, which governs spouse’s food, finances, and family ties.
• Mars Retrograde in 8th House: Here, the person pours their soul into work. Many times, they even end up in professions connected to their family’s legacy.

Then comes Saturn Retrograde—the slow, patient teacher—casting its gaze on the 9th house from where it sits:

• Saturn Retrograde in 2nd House: Careers start at rock bottom—sometimes humbling, sometimes frustrating—but slowly, surely, they rise. Saturn’s eyes are fixed on the 10th house of career, and it makes you earn every inch of success.
• Saturn Retrograde in 9th House: These natives often feel invisible/unrecognized in their efforts—whether in higher studies, office politics, or creative recognition. That’s Saturn’s 5th house influence, testing persistence in every possible way, because 5^th house is your honor, position, power.

Similarly, you can try test out these special techniques with other planets as well, it works like wonder.

For your information

A Retro mercury would deliver results 4^th from itself

And a Retro Venus would deliver results 7^th from itself.

Many a times some charts don’t make much sense, in such cases use these exceptional techniques, you can also use it in divisional charts as well. Every time I see these combinations now, it makes things more clear during the readings.
