Solar Eclipse September 2015 on September 13, 2015

During Solar Eclipses the Moon is directly between the Earth and Sun. During this brief time the Moon can “block out” the Sun. The September 13 solar eclipse is less challenging and future oriented. It presents a great opportunity to realize how relationships have gone bad and how to right the imbalances through positive change. This occurs on September 13, 2015 with the New Moon in Virgo solar eclipse. The eclipses are about creating changes in your life that you want to last. 

When you create wishes and questions that are designed for the big picture, Universe responds. 
And the New Moon solar eclipse in Virgo in September of 2015 will be all about eclipsing the bad, and creating the good.

Some of the changes that come your way will be fated and destined and there’s not a thing you can do about that. What you can do between now and then is prepare yourself to be okay with whatever changes in your life come your way under the solar eclipse. 

With a New Moon in Virgo for this eclipse, organization, responsibility, and attention to details will be very important themes where you will see changes in both love and work. 

Jupiter Movement

Jupiter would make its annual movement into Leo from its exaltation sign of Cancer on the13th July 2015, where it's going to be housed till the 12th August 2016.
The move & particularly the placement of Jupiter in these two sign grids of Cancer & Leo is very interesting. Cancer & Leo are both 'Royal Signs' and Jupiter is super strong in both these signs.
However, the strength of Jupiter is very diverse between both these signs as you would yourself experience during the coming 13 months. Jupiter is a benign planet & Cancer is a very 'giving' sign owned by Moon. 
Due to this comfort, Cancer is the exaltation sign of Jupiter where wealth, comforts & goodness flows. Leo, on the other hand is a 'harsh' sign, owned by Sun. 
Being fiery & egoistic in nature, Leo pushes Jupiter's niceness towards action and gives result oriented approach, when Jupiter land s up in Leo.It is due to this difference in both these signs, we will find that Jupiter, though equally strong in the two signs will give financial progress in a very calm & giving manner in Cancer, while Jupiter in Leo would push you to be a go-getter & achieve great professional progressduring its stay in Leo. 
Further, Jupiter's Leo stay would be even more eventful after December 2015 due to its conjunction with Rahu (the fountainhead of material instincts). 
It could be the time of great professional & material progress without the actual humane-touch associated with Jupiter.

Powerful Jupiter-Rahu Combination

Career & Finances Will Undergo Changes due to this combination! 

As we reach the midpoint of 2015, you should brace ourselves for some major changes and the way you are likely to act, think & behave over the next 2 years. Leading the change in these major changes would be Jupiter that is poised to move from its exaltation sign of Cancer to Leo on 14th July 2015. Leo is a royal sign & a great friend of Jupiter. This will bring in many new challenges & changes that would modify your life in a way that is totally different from how you are looking at life currently. Jupiter would conjunct with Rahu (the Dragon's head) in January 2016 but it would cast influence from end November 2015. In simple words, it means the combination of pure knowledge with deviousness & base instincts. Further Saturn will stop its retrograde motion & turn direct on 2nd August 2015, bringing a method in the madness and clarity of thoughts & actions once again. The changes due to these 3 transit-moves would begin from mid 2015 & run in varying forms till last quarter of 2017. During which, Jupiter would change its sign twice - first into Leo, from July 2015 & then into Virgo, from August 2016. The Leo-transit would see Jupiter & Saturn in a square position from each other, bringing hurdles in world economics as well as general progress in career for us. The Virgo placement of Jupiter however will bring a lot of comfort & progress in our lives. While, the Jupiter - Rahu combination wouldchange our way of thinking to a more material & result oriented method. While this combination could be excellent in terms of creating opportunities at work & in finances, you may find yourself lacking in feeling the human angle in relationships & transactions due to this Yoga.

5 Planet Combination: Success & Stress

On May 30th 2015, Venus joins Jupiter in Cancer, its sign of exaltation. Venus & Jupiter are the two most beneficial planets in the zodiac & this combination is the most coveted one attracting good fortune when the two planets come together. This year, the Venus-Jupiter combination commences from 30th May & would continue abnormally long till 13th August as both Jupiter & Venus would continue transiting together from Cancer to Leo, creating a relatively large & peculiar span of very lucky & happy influences upon you.

Concurrently a very contradictory & angry transit of Mars & Sun would also be in operation along with this beautiful combination of Venus - Jupiter. However, this would rather be a high-heat & furious combination which would be rendered further very volatile with the presence of Mercury in Taurus along with Sun & Mars from the 15th of May. These two parallel transits would give you gains & stress simultaneously. You need to be aware of the special opportunities that the Venus-Jupiter combine would create in the areas of public image, communication skills, expansion in new areas of work & siblings making you complacent with success while the Mars-Sun-Mercury combination could make you rub people in power the wrong way and possibly miss great opportunities, bringing in health, relationship, anger & temperament issues.

A new beginning: Adhi Yoga

Venus moves into the Vedic sign Gemini on the 2nd May 2015. 

Venus along with an already exalted Jupiter would create one of the most beneficial planetary combinations this year, called the "Adhi Yoga." Adhi is a Sanskrit word that means "Beginning of good."

An Adhi Yoga brings rise in position, increase in financial success, a better ability to inspire trust & respect in others and increase in benign & philanthropic nature. 

The complete Adhi Yoga is formed with 3 planets, namely Jupiter, Venus & Mercury. The complete Adhi Yoga will become operational when Mercury joins this special combination of Venus and Jupiter on the 5th July 2015.

This exclusively beneficial combination would run with full good effects till 17th November 2015. 

It is an exceptional period for making progress - both professionally and financially.

2015 Lunar Eclipses

Lunar eclipses occur when the Sun is in front of all or part of the full moon for a short time. In an astrological sense, lunar eclipses typically mean an end to something that has been going on since the last eclipse. This usually points to the end of things such as settlements and business plans. They'll become finalized during the lunar eclipse. But, this could also be a finalization of something that's been holding you back, such as a bad relationship or a divorce. 

Normally, eclipses happen in six-month periods. The eclipses for 2015 occur in the same signs as they did in 2014, Libra and Aries, respectively. 

Our first lunar eclipse, a total eclipse, comes on April 4. It'll be able to be seen along the Pacific and eastern Indian oceans, and all continents bordering (North and South America, Asia, Australia, and the Artic). This eclipse will be falling in 15 Libra. This points to a time of new birth. Again, take this time as a positive and put any and all unresolved issues to rest. Literally, let these issues die, and try not to save them. 

The next lunar eclipse, another total eclipse, occurs on September 28. This eclipse will be able to be seen on the opposite side of the earlier eclipse, along the Atlantic, eastern Pacific, and western Indian oceans, and all bordering continents (Antarctica, North and South America, Africa, Europe, and eastern Asia).This, along with the earlier eclipse, is an emotional one. There's also a focus on relationship yet again during this lunar eclipse. If you didn't get the chance to take action on a failing relationship, whether it be a friendship or a more intimate one, you'll have a second chance during this lunar eclipse. Free yourself from whatever is holding you back from being you, that's the key during this time. 

These eclipses will be felt most strongly by those whose planets from their chart fall within the times of both.

Saturn Retrograde in Scorpio 2015 March-August

Saturn, the biggest Karmic influencing planet will turn into retrograde motion while transiting Vrischik Rasi (Scorpio) on 14 March 2015

It will be back in direct motion from 02 August 2015.

During its entire retograde motion, Saturn will be travelling between Anuradha nakshatra’s 3rd quarter(paada) and 1st quarter.

Saturn gets into stationary position for some time and then keeps moving into forward direction with retarded speed. Saturn remains into stationary motion for some moments before it starts moving backward.

In the same way, before Saturn becomes progressive (turns into direct motion), it remains in retrograde zone and starts moving into forward direction till it gains full speed.

Saturn retrograde in Scorpio is right time for deep introspection, investigation and examination of our inner realms. Secrets, hidden agendas, subtle tendencies, skewed motives, buried information or skeletons symbolically are all being exposed. There is no more room for secrets. All kinds of things are coming up for contemplation and awareness.

This is the best time in an year to pause and rethink about our future plans.

Exalted Jupiter’s aspect on Saturn till mid-july 2015 will bring out many hidden things.

Saturn often represents the fulfillment of Karma. Often, that Karma is not the happy-fuzzy feel-good Karma we like to imagine happens all the time.

During these 141 days, Saturn reminds us to produce quality, choose to be with quality partners and most of all maintain high standards of self-respect and responsibility.

Best time to relinquish the negatives, bitterness, rage and extreme habits that are unhealthy.

Saturn retrograde in Scorpio 2015 promises renewal and rebirth to those who are sincerely attending to the lessons of life and learning. You have a choice as to who you are intimate with, partner with, borrow from, and owe.

Choose wisely and take responsibility for what you choose, how you act and your behaviors.

Saturn is asking you to leave bitterness of Scorpio and adapt to the situation.

Full Moon February 2015

The full moon is on 3 February 2015. There are aspects galore to this full moon, making it very powerful and intense. Leo will obviously feel the full force of the February 2015 full moon. However, the scattering of planets of other signs means that Aries, Libra, Sagittarius, Capricorn, Aquarius and Pisces also have planets, which are directly impacted by the full moon.

Like all full moons, the influence of this moon phase will last for two weeks, up until the February 18 new moon. Because of the many planets and aspect patterns involves, there are many themes of importance and many areas of life to be affected. As the moon rules the public, women, emotions and instinctive reactions, the major theme will be reacting or rebelling to release a buildup of anger and frustration. Much of this anger will be due to how we see governments, corporations and religions negatively impacting on our lives and our health.
