“When you stop seeking answers outside of you, Jupiter retrograde shows you that you’ve always been the teacher.”

In Vedic Astrology, the Ascendant (or *Lagna*) is far more than a simple personality marker—it is the karmic doorway through which the soul enters this life. The rising sign at the moment of birth sets the tone for one’s spiritual purpose, challenges, and the karmic debts carried forward from past incarnations. Each Lagna represents a unique blueprint of the soul’s journey, showing not only what we must master in this lifetime but also the areas where we are called to evolve.

In astrology, a stellium is when three or more planets occupy the same zodiac sign or astrological house. This creates a concentration of energy that shapes your personality, priorities, and life themes in a major way. Let’s break it down.

In the Vedic myth of Samudra Manthan (the churning of the ocean of milk), the gods (Devas) and demons (Asuras) worked together to obtain the nectar of immortality (Amrit). When Vishnu began distributing it, one Asura disguised himself as a Deva to drink the nectar. The Sun and Moon spotted him and alerted Vishnu, who instantly decapitated the Asura with his Sudarshan Chakra (divine discus).

Jupiter rules Sagittarius and co-rules Pisces, and governs luck, learning, expansion, and dharma. It brings spiritual insight, prosperity, and growth in whatever area of life it touches. Jupiter's influence is warm, wise, and uplifting—though unchecked, it can also lead to overconfidence or excess.

Pluto co-rules (alongside Mars) Scorpio in modern astrology and governs transformation, power, trauma, and resurrection. It reveals where we hold emotional intensity and where we must surrender control to experience soul-level evolution. Pluto's influence is deep, slow-burning, and irreversible.

Uranus is not a classical Vedic graha, but modern Vedic astrologers often view it as a high-vibration planet representing futuristic thinking and soul-level liberation. Uranus is often associated with ↕ karmic electricity, awakenings, and intuitive rebellion.

The Sun rules Leo and governs the soul, ego, confidence, and willpower. It illuminates purpose and power. A strong Sun offers charisma and clarity; a weak Sun can manifest as insecurity, ego issues, or a lack of direction. The Sun is your inner light—align with it, and you thrive.

Mercury rules Gemini and Virgo, and governs intellect, communication, business, and adaptability. It brings clarity, humor, expression, and speed. In imbalance, Mercury can show up as anxiety, overthinking, or trickery. Mastering Mercury means aligning mind and message with purpose.

Saturn rules Capricorn and Aquarius, and governs structure, karma, boundaries, maturity, time, and discipline. Though his lessons are slow and sometimes painful, they lead to profound growth, deep self-mastery, and spiritual strength. Saturn reminds us that what we build with commitment and integrity becomes unshakable.

The Moon rules Cancer and governs the emotional body, mind, and instinctual nature. It shapes our feelings, reactions, attachments, and memories. A strong Moon offers stability and calm; a challenged Moon creates mood swings, insecurity, or emotional reactivity.

Mercury Retrograde happens when the planet appears to move backward in the sky (astronomically, it’s just an optical illusion). Astrologically, it signals a pause and review. Old patterns, people, or problems resurface Communication glitches, tech breakdowns, delays are common It's not ideal for contracts, major purchases, or new launches But it's perfect for: reviewing, revising, reconnecting, healing, and reflecting

Saturn Retrograde is not a punishment—it is a sacred invitation to clean up your karmic messes, refine your purpose, and rise as the spiritually mature version of you.

Venus rules Taurus and Libra, and governs love, pleasure, art, and value. It is the planet of grace, desire, beauty, and harmony. Venus blesses relationships and creativity, but when imbalanced, can lead to vanity, overindulgence, or attachment to superficial things.
