When
a planet is transiting through the Zodiac, the planets from Mercury to Pluto
have cycles known as retrograde and direct motion. The Sun and the Moon
never go into retrograde motion.
The
Planets, at times, appear to slow down. They then appear to stop their
forward motion. During this apparent stoppage of motion, it is known as
stationary retrograde. The planet will remain in this stationary position
for a few days duration, depending on the planet in question. After the
planet moves into retrograde motion (appears to be moving backwards) and then completes
its retrograde cycle, it once again begins to slow down and then appear to come
to a stop. This is termed stationary direct in Astrology. The
length of time a planet is in stationary direct also depends on the planet
involved. The outer planets remain in their stationing position longer
than the inner planets. Once again the
planets begin to appear to move in a forward motion.
There
has been controversy concerning the meaning of stationary positions in the
natal chart. Some Astrologers, including this Astrologer, share the
concept through experience that the stationary direct as well as the stationary
retrograde have a very powerful influence on a person’s life when found in the
natal chart.
It
has been noted that an individual with a planet in a stationary position in the
birth chart will have emphasizes on the defining energies of the planet
involved. There is also influence from the sign that the planet is in and
the house placement as well.
Some
Astrologers, through studies, have found that the stationary planet can be one
of the most powerful influences in the birth chart and that the energies of
this planet will rule much of the activity that will be released. At some
point in the person’s life, these energies and the influence of the planet will
become very significant. The energies of the stationary planet have been
linked to the defining purpose of the individual’s life.
This
Astrologer believes that if there are other signatures within the birth chart
that point in the same direction and imply something very similar that the
matters concerned with the planet involved will be heightened and experienced
as a significant inner or outer expression.
It
has been suggested that someone with a stationary retrograde planet in the
birth chart will at some point experience the energies related to the planet
involved within the area of life the house dictates as well as the energies of
the sign it falls under.
The
individual with the stationary retrograde will only discover this after some
time of inner reflection as well as many life experiences that will lead to an
awakening of sorts depending on the planet and its placement. This may
take time as well as much self-study or thought-provoking experiences before it
is finally released. This is similar to a retrograde planet in the birth
chart as it suggests that there is some inner reflection required before action
can be taken.
The
stationary direct individual has a different experience although the process is
the same. The stationary direct influence depends on the sign the
stationary planet is in and the house placement as well. However, the stationary direct individual has
a much easier time unleashing the energies associated with the planet and its
placement. Things seem to work much easier and in a more outward
expression. The motivating factor that facilitates the desired
information or acknowledgement and understanding can be released at a much
early stage in life or under less restrictive conditions. Stationary direct works in a much similar
manner as does a planet once it goes direct.
The
energies released and the influence of the planet involved is still of primary
importance, but the direct stationary energies seem to come through in a much
easier manner than the energies of the retrograde stationary planet.
