Saturn Retro 2025: 22: Pitra Karma Zone

In my last post, I wrote about  Sun + Ketu deep conjunction at Leo, @24°07' , Purva Phalguni Nakshtra,  Pada (4), on 10th September, around midnight. I was in the hospital, as an attendant to my sister, , post her surgery, earlier completed at Daytime.

 
Also in the previous post, I had proclaimed that... I would encounter echoes, of past ghosts at hometown Guwahati,
And had also proclaimed, that, once, I land at  my hometown, I would.. "...accelerate and multiply the retrograde tempo and intensity of this ongoing Saturn Retrograde journey/ process.. "

BUT never did I expect all that Proclamation to tie all TOGETHER in the PERFECT ASTROLOGICAL GEOMETRY. !
How!! πŸ‘‡πŸΌπŸ‘‡πŸΌ


From 8th to 21 September, is Shraddh, the annual period of PITRA Paksh, when we pray homage to the deceased, departed souls, and to our ancestors, and perform all annual Tarpan rituals for our departed family/ ancestors.
And the current ongoing SUN + Ketu Conjunction ( in any sign) , is called in any horoscope as. .. PITRA Dosha!!.. Indicative of karmic debts owed to ancestors..!

 
SO it's a double whammy, Grammy winning .. Karmic Redemptive vortex period till 17th September, when Sun moves out of Leo!

 
ESPECIALLY FROM 10TH TO 13TH SEPTEMBER.. when Sun + Ketu  are in deep conjunction at Leo, @24°07' , Purva Phalguni Nakshtra,  Pada (4), SAME, NAKSHATRA PADA, . . Dreaded .. Scorpio Navamsha!! πŸ”₯πŸ”₯πŸ”₯


Noteworthy to say, that Scorpio is the natural 8th House/ Sign, representing death, destruction, rebirth, ancestral karma, inherited karma, occult, and also representing the Mooladhara Chakra, which is a storehouse of our past karmas and debts!!

 
Hence, this current conjunction represents A DIRECT KARMIC window for accessing your Birth Pitra Dosha.


ESPECIALLY SINCE, Sun moved into Leo from 17th August forming Sun + Ketu conjunction ( PITRA Dosha),  "Blood Moon Eclipse", i. e., complete Lunar Eclipse/ Chandra Grahan at LEO on 7th September, and from very next day.. Pitra Paksh began on 8th Sept, , all OVERLAPPING  !!!!
In my previous post, I had said.. πŸ‘‡πŸΌπŸ‘‡πŸΌ..

 
"..in November/ December 2005, DURING Saturn Retrograde,  I had moved to Delhi, leaving Hometown Guwahati, DURING this period. HENCE, since then, hometown Guwahati shifted into the haunting zone for me.. bordering between two worlds... "


And now, landing up in Hometown Guwahati in this exact period of Extreme Karmic Catharsis... Triple karmic configuration  brings an altogether different meaning to Saturn Retrograde 2025!!

 
Like I had visualised in the previous post.. The invisible Haunted Doorway/ portal into the Pitra Zone/ Grey Zone hath OPENED... allowing us to redeem,  recompense, release our long festering, pending, unresolved.. KARMIC DEBTS.
..and thereof.. to evolve/ elevate to the next level..

 

Footnote/ Beltola

The hospital where I have dwelled in since night of 9th Sept, being located in Beltola, has special significance, as we grew up here in child hood. And I had previously dedicated a post to the Special  PITRA energy significance of this location πŸ‘‰πŸΌπŸ‘‰πŸΌSaturn Retro Post 13: Bat From Beltola
πŸ‘ˆπŸΌπŸ‘ˆπŸΌ. 

The household from where I got that "Bat from Beltola " is walking distance from the hospital!
In Vedic thought, we consider Sthaan, Kaal, Paatra, namely Place, Time, and Context/ Circumstance of ALL events.


I bow in obeisance to Lord Shanidev for arranging and placing me in the PERFECT.. Sthaan, Kaal, Paatra, of this cosmic  Redemptive/ Cathartic event.. πŸ™πŸΌπŸ™πŸΌ.




Also Noteworthy, that Darshan Barman, πŸ‘‡πŸΌπŸ‘‡πŸΌmy younger but genius astrologer friend with whom I've been in daily touch for almost  FOUR years now, because he discovered a hidden PITRA Dosha in my chart due to the Sun. He lives in a few minutes walking distance from the hospital.. In Beltola.. πŸ‘‡πŸΌπŸ‘‡πŸΌ

Saturn Retro 2025: 21: Geometry Of Haunting

In my last post, I wrote about how I landed at my hometown Guwahati, for my sister's surgery, and it's great SIGNIFICANCE to current ongoing Saturn Retrograde, 2025. Also, in it, I wrote about other parallel planetary transits, which heavily contributed to the current energy trend.

So, today I want to focus on Sun + Ketu maximum conjunction at Leo, @24°07' or Purva Phalguni Nakshtra, at Pada (4), on THIS NIGHT of 10th September, around midnight. As I'm in attendance with my sister, in hospital, post her surgery, earlier today at Daytime.

In the previous post, I had proclaimed that I would encounter echoes, of past ghosts at hometown Guwahati, but didn't expect this to occur in perfect geometric astrological REVERSE/ Replay!!! How?? πŸ‘‡πŸΌπŸ‘‡πŸΌπŸ‘‡πŸΌπŸ‘‡πŸΌ

Like I said, that today SUN + Ketu are at maximum conjunction at Leo, @24°07' THIS NIGHT of 10th September.
In my own natal horoscope/ birthchart.. SATURN and Ketu are at maximum conjunction at 10°26 Gemini, in Ardra Nakshatra. And natal Saturn's 3rd house, ( strongest aspect) is ON at this exact Sun + Ketu in Leo.


HENCE.. My NATAL/ BIRTH position.. of Deep Conjunction of Saturn+ Ketu in Gemini, is.. Right Now.... Directly Aspecting.. the CURRENT DEEP Conjunction of Sun+ Ketu in Leo!!


πŸ‘‡πŸΌπŸ‘‡πŸΌIN AN EVEN SIMPLER WAY πŸ‘‡πŸΌπŸ‘‡πŸΌπŸ‘‡πŸΌ
BIRTH: Ketu + Saturn.. Deep conjunct in Gemini,
πŸ‘‡πŸΌπŸ‘‡πŸΌDIRECTLY Aspecting πŸ‘‡πŸΌπŸ‘‡πŸΌ
CURRENT: Ketu + Sun.. Deep conjunct in Leo..

This current conjunction has great SIGNIFICANCE as it represents A DIRECT KARMIC REVERSE, of my Birth planetary position. Enabling me to access the current Karmic Catharsis in Leo. ESPECIALLY just three days after the great "Blood Moon Eclipse", or complete Lunar Eclipse/ Chandra Grahan at LEO on 7th September.

And the relevance of today's post, is MUCH MORE with context to my PREVIOUS post, wherein I blindly PROCLAIMED, while typing that post, that once I land at my hometown, I would.. "...accelerate and multiply the retrograde tempo and intensity of this ongoing Saturn Retrograde journey/ process.. "
And, Voila! The universe creates the perfect portal for it tonight, in this hospital!!

In my previous post, I had said.. πŸ‘‡πŸΌπŸ‘‡πŸΌ..
"..in November/ December 2005, I had got married DURING Saturn Retrograde, and moved to Delhi, leaving Hometown Guwahati, DURING this period. HENCE, since then, hometown Guwahati shifted into the haunting zone for me.. bordering between two worlds... "

πŸ‘†πŸΌπŸ‘†πŸΌBasically, I calculated huge UNFINISHED karma in my hometown, and in the very next post, today's post... It's been geometrically revealed by the physical/ metaphysics of the planets..

 
..This Geometry Of Haunting..


Also, in my previous post, I had said.. πŸ‘‡πŸΌπŸ‘‡πŸΌ..


".. I have to continue and stretch the cathartic, redemptive, retrograde, process for two weeks and two days more, until the 24th of September. Despite the mandatory fact, that I'll be completely swallowed, and subsumed by the hectic, intense, hometown Guwahati environment.. "

πŸ‘†πŸΌπŸ‘†πŸΌ But I had miscalculated a bit, the apex point of this phase of Saturn Retrograde.. Which I found only today.. 10th September, maximum Ketu+ Sun conjunction in Leo! Also represents maximum Rahu - Sun opposition!

See the clashes in Nepal, burning, turbulence of this very combination. But anyways, this is an intensely/ inward/ personal post. Not one proclaiming Global Events according to planets. 

BUT Definitely.. DEFINING.. The invisible Haunted Doorways, allowing us to redeem, recompense, release our pending karmic debts. And then to thereof.. EVOLVE/ Transform!!

It's 11:48 pm now.. Sun @ 24°04 Leo inching towards Ketu @ 24°07 Leo!! Even the exact timing for writing of this post was WRITTEN in Heavens.. and that too mirroring/ reversing the combination in my birth chart / horoscope!!


As Saturn Retrograde as it gets.., πŸ”₯πŸ”₯πŸ”₯

Prologue

I reached the night before, exact 25 hrs before this Sun + Ketu maximum conjunction @ 24°07 Leo! AND this post has been written in one go, (like the previous post in mid flight) while lying in as attendant in a hospital bed! After the maximum conjunction is over.. From tomorrow.. Slowly.. Things would crawl back to normal/ usual.

00:33 am, 11 Sept, now Sun @ 24°06 Leo inching towards Ketu @ 24°07 Leo!! I was discussing this very minute point with a young, gifted, fellow astrologer about this karmic transit. Second late night caller was a dear friend from Delhi, who was going through, probably the Darkest night of the soul. It was easy for me to predict as Ketu snd Sun moved apart from each other, from their maximum conjunction at @ 24°07 Leo, things WOULD improve for him! Such events were fated, designed, written by the stars themselves πŸ‘πŸΌπŸ‘πŸΌ✅

Post Script
01:54 am, 11 Sept, i received a picture from Katrina,  astrologer, who has become my bestie on Threads. It was a new ring, she had made in her ring making craft workshop. It was a multi gemstone ring with a prominent ruby on top. Ruby= Sun = Leo! πŸ‘‡πŸΌπŸ‘‡πŸΌ

The picture mirrored my own  pictures in this post pointing at the hospital ceiling...

And currently she was offering Underworld readings of birthcharts, examining very dark, difficult, complex placements.. πŸ‘‡πŸΌπŸ‘‡πŸΌ


..Karmic threads, connecting.. the stars.. and unraveling..

..their Geometry of Haunting..

Saturn Retro 2025: 20: Hometown Guwahati

It has been a while since my last post about ongoing Saturn Retrograde, 2025. Many other turbulent parallel transits, and a massive Lunar eclipse on 7th September, saw to it, that we were all engrossed with and subsumed by intense turbulent events.

Today, 9.9.205, eg, 9.9.9 portal, I'm flying back to Hometown Gauhati, to be there for my sisters surgery. I've started writing this post mid flight, at an epic Twin Peak of anxiety. Flying on 9.9.9 portal, Martian excess, ON a Tuesday, Mangal vaar, ruled by Mars. And secondly, directly landing at the hospital from the airport, as my sister's now already been admitted. And undergoing tests, as I type this out, mid flight!


And the relevance of this post, with context to previous posts, is that since I'll land up in my hometown, there would be a massive opportunity to DWELL and DROWN into the RETROGRADE energies of my past. A massive opportunity.. to accelerate and multiply the retrograde tempo and intensity of this ongoing Saturn Retrograde journey/ process..




To be Visiting hometown Guwahati, especially, during this yellow phase of Saturn Retrograde 2025 πŸ‘‡πŸΌπŸ‘‡πŸΌ..



..Affording me the opportunity to revisit the very place, wherein, twenty years before, I had BEGUN writing about Saturn Retro.. in hometown Guwahati.. during Saturn retrograde 2005..
EVEN MORE SO.. Because, in November, December 2005, I had got married DURING Saturn Retrograde, and moved to Delhi, leaving Hometown Guwahati, DURING this period. HENCE, since then, hometown Guwahati shifted into the haunting zone for me.. bordering between two worlds... ...a realm I have been forever trying to negotiate, balance, with..
In 2005, Saturn retrograde was happening in Cancer, my 10th house, of career. The sudden departure to Delhi, after marriage, DURING retrograde, completely set back my career.. By DECADES..
This time, 2025, it's happening in Pisces, my 6th house.. of disease, problems, karmic debts, opposition, conflicts, misery, etc...

And this time, I AM flying back home..suddenly.. FOR my sister's sudden surgery/ operation. A window, an opportunity for Karmic redemption, created by the heavens.. at the perfect conjecture..
My job: I just have to continue and stretch the cathartic, redemptive, retrograde, process for two weeks and two days more, until the 24th of September. Despite the mandatory fact, that I'll be completely swallowed, and subsumed by the hectic, intense, hometown Guwahati environment.
And I AM.. Writing this on my phone note app, during flight, forming the mission statement BEFORE I land at ground zero. Before I'm inevitably and Completely swallowed, and subsumed by the hectic, intense, hometown Guwahati environment.
This very opportunity for formation of thought has been spontaneously and unexpectedly created by the wheels of time itself. By the very fabric of Saturn Retrograde itself..!!
And I just have to do one thing and one thing only..
Become completely submerged by the ongoing process/ journey of ongoing Saturn retrograde 2025..
..and try to maintain the continuum of these retrograde posts..

Saturn Retro 2025: 19: Being and Nothingness

Been a while since I posted about ongoing Saturn Retrograde. Completely Forgetting that it's a Karmic functionality for me ( check my previous thousand posts on Saturn Retro). And that I get some kind of reprieve from it's tallows, when I keep on writing about it. Otherwise it becomes quite messy, like I recently found out. The swamps become deeper and muddier. The mud rises from the knees up to your neck. Almost swallowing you down under. Completely.


Today's post suddenly began at 2:49 am, Monday morning. Abruptly and suddenly. As I woke up from sleep, uncharacteristically. As if, the culminating events of the past week, almost coerced me to write. Compulsively and abruptly, and without ceremony. More like a human experiencing Saturn Retrograde.

 Bereft of the astrological interpretations of the previous posts of Saturn retrograde 2025. As if, strangulating gravitation, choked me up, and writing was the only activity, that provided air passage to my lungs. Writing directly, and without ado.

 
Is this what we would experience while crossing through a black hole? As gravity increased exponentially and time itself reversed? And we began to be confronted, and haunted by the ghosts from the past. As they immensely and fervently clawed at our soul.



I took a screenshot of my first Saturn retrograde blog post, previously uploaded on Threads. Reminding my own self of its ongoing schedule. A schedule that Surpassed all other PREVAILING AND ONGOING astrological transits. Especially for me.  I have written about it already.


Why I discontinued writing on Retrograde was because of two reasons: Readers/ audience, and secondly astrological content. But as a human writing about Saturn Retrograde for about twenty years, both online and offline, I could just summon up the decades long inertia..  and just continue..


Maybe these words uploaded on the post served some deeper, direct, karmic functionality that I was yet to fathom.

 
As soon, as I opened my mobile in the darkness, this song popped up before me.. On YouTube.




And, which, I played in a loop, to help me spurn forth these words of mine. Just writing about BEING/ existing in Retrograde. Remembering the title of Being and Nothingness by Jean Paul Sartre. Just BEING/ existing. Extrapolate on the fibres, and cables of BEING/ existing itself. Without ANY event or content. Except one. Saturn Retrograde! Just that. Only that singular one.

 
Now, it's 3:12 am, the strangulating grasp upon my neck feels a bit relieved. The heart feels slightly less heavier. But yet, so far, down this post, I have complete and utterly, written about nothing in particular, so far. But.. Just written. 

And by listening to a singular song that popped up on YouTube, at this unearthly hour. It's not even, of my particular taste. But slightly hovered around the songs in my Smouldering Blues Country folder amongst 134 other astrologically sorted music folders, sorted According to. Mood, nuance and shade.

Saturn retrograde writing has always had it's own way with me. Surpassing time, space, borders, definition and objectivity. Just the Smouldering Blue of the universe, reaching out to me. Tapping me on my shoulders in a unearthly hour. To just wake up, and relentlessly write. About the metaphysical churning process of Saturn retrograde.
About what it feels like to be human. Bereft of all content, and trappings. The hardware beneath, all that overwhelming software.


I have read enough in my lifetime to tangentially grasp, out of the corner of my eye, that, this piece would have been some great passage of writing, if placed in the right place in a novella, or a piece which was about self reflection.


But no!! .. It had to be this random piece in my blog, strictly about the metaphysics of Saturn retrograde. About it's human nitty gritty. This was not writing, but rambling about nothingness in particular. I wouldn't call it the Void, as it has been, the intellectual  trend in the past hundred years or so. I would call it nothingness. The nothingness of the hardware that operates our human consciousness and Experiencing. Beneath all that overloaded software. Like the massive library of Apps, pictures, and music in your phone.
But, beneath it all, the loneliness, and emptiness of the hardware.


One thing definitely bothers me though. I can ONLY write this well, only when, I'm writing about Saturn retrograde. Otherwise, my writing ALWAYS feels forced, contrived, phallocentric and hollow. And I rapidly tire of the process of writing, even while I'm at it.


But Saturn retrograde is different. It taps on your shoulder. Wake you up at an unearthly hour. To just wake your senses, and write. Listening to a singular piece of music, that just found you, and just write.


Anyways, it's 3: 46 am now, I'm a bit woozy now, so I'll end this post..
.. As abruptly as I began..
