Gochaara implications of Saturn’s transit into Libra

During his sojourn in Libra sign, Saturn will be transiting across the constellations of Chitta (2 & 3), Swathi, and Visakha (1, 2, & 3). With the entry of Saturn into Libra it will be the beginning of Sade-Sathi for those born in Scorpio sign (Vrischika raasi) and end of Sade-Sathi for those born under Leo sign (Simha Raasi).  For Kanya (Virgo) raasi it will be the last leg of Sade-Sathi while for Thula (Libra) it will be Janma Shani or 2nd leg of Sade-Sathi. Those born under the Moon sign of Meena (Pisces) raasi will experience the effect of Ashtama Shani and for those born in Cancer (Karkataka), Aries (Mesha) and Capricorn (Makara) it will be Kantaka Shani. For Cancer sign it is also called as Ardhaashtama Shani.

*In between Saturn turns retrograde when; the above results gets modified

As a rule, Naidhana thara and Janma Thara gives very bad results, Pratyak and Vipat thara gives bad results, Sampat thara, Sadhana thara and Mithra thara gives good results and Paramamithra thara gives very good results.

The results enumerated above should not be applied as it is. They may get modified based on the overall planetary position and strength in the natal chart, placement of Saturn and its position, aspects of benefic planets, running Dasa-Bhukti, and transit of planets like Jupiter, Rahu and Kethu etc.

During Saturn’s sojourn in Libra other major astrological transits would be Jupiter moving into Taurus and further into Gemini, Rahu-Kethu moving into Libra & Aries and further into Virgo & Pisces respectively.  Saturn’s transit or entry into Libra marks the beginning of a new phase in Gochaara as his Libran influence will be felt precisely for a period of more than2½ years. Though technically the transit will be for 2½ years, effectively it will be for almost three years before Saturn finally moves into the next sign. This is due to Saturn assuming retrograde motion in-between.

Libra is a sign of exaltation for Saturn and the sign Lord Venus is a natural friend of Saturn and as such Libra is Saturn’s most friendly and comfortable sign. Next transit of Saturn into Libra will take place only after 30 years. An airy sign Libra is the natural 7th house in the zodiac. Generally 7th house is known as Kalathra sthana indicating marriage, association/relations with others.  A sign of equilibrium, Libra indicating balance and justice, Saturn the celestial judge in Libra indicates more discipline and commitment in ones’ relationships with a balance of mind and righteousness.
