What is Retrograde (Vakri) Motion?
Retrograde motion is when a planet appears to move backward in the sky from our view on Earth. It is an optical effect caused by the differing orbital speeds of Earth and the other planets - no planet actually reverses direction. In Vedic astrology a retrograde (vakri) planet is considered especially powerful, turning its energy inward and often bringing past matters, people and lessons back into focus.
Mercury retrograde is the most well-known, affecting communication and travel. Each retrograde is a time to re-view, re-visit and re-consider rather than start afresh. All periods here are computed precisely using the Swiss Ephemeris.
How Does Retrograde Affect Your Chart?
A retrograde planet's impact depends on its house and strength in your birth chart.
