Retrograde Planets in Vedic Astrology

What is meant by planet retrogrades in astrology?

The backward motion of a transiting planet is known as retrogression motion in Vedic Astrology. The backward motion of any planet is only relative to the position of the earth. In reality, the planet has not or never will move backward in our solar system. In other words, the planets always move in a forward direction only in the sky. They appear to be moving backward at some specific distances and locations as seen from the surface of the Earth.

The Sun and Moon are never retrograde in a birth chart. Rahu and Ketu are always retrograde.

Why is it considered important?

Retrograde Planets are one of the important tools by which we can estimate the intensity of any planet. Sometimes, retrograde planets make human life appear to be stuck at the moment, neither moving forward nor backward. However, the functional behavior and natal placement of the retrograde planet must be assessed before judging any event.
