I’m curious about what your experiences with retrograde planets as significators look like.
I know that retrograde planets are significantly weakened, and in my experience I’ve had retrograde planets that go direct before ever making an applying aspect. In these cases the situation manifested as one party being interested but then changing their mind and the desired result did not come about.
How about when the only way to make an applying aspect is when One of the planets is in retrograde? In this case that I’m looking over, an applying aspect is made. In fact, it looks like an applying aspect is made TWICE because mercury is going retrograde and then direct.
From my interpretation- it looks as if the desired event is going to come about- but as the quesitor is represented by Mercury, it seems like they are not in a very good position.
Retrograde planets and their effects have always confused me. What are your thoughts?
