Ask Joni #6: Questions and Answers to Your Questions About Astrology!

Foreign.

Hi, I'm Joni Petrie and welcome to my YouTube channel. Well, today I'm going to continue on with all these wonderful, pertinent questions that all of you have been posting for me to answer and am so pleased to do so because these are such interesting and wonderful questions. It gives me hope in humanity again. Okay, so let's begin with the first one. I have Yana Lowry, which what planetary aspects or transit show a possible old flame, reignited romance, new relationship. So what do I look for? Ketu is the past. Rahu is the future. Whenever Ketu goes through the seventh house, an old flame and old love can come back. Brings things back to the past. And another thing is the 12th house is the past. So if you have Venus and Ketu going through the 12th house, it could bring back people from the past. Dealing with the past love and Venus going retrograde is another indicator of bringing back old flames because it's going backwards. Bringing things from before to review, reassess, and that can deal with relationships. Venus is due to go retrograde in May and it will turn direct towards the end of June. So in this window of time, especially if you have a Scorpio, ascendant Venus will be retrograde in your seventh house. Or if you have Venus and let's see, Taurus. Yeah. Gemini, ascendant, Venus will be in the 12th house. So that would bring back old flames and loves from the past. So look at that, the retrograde. And look at Ketu particularly for bringing that back. Now, when Rahu goes through the seventh house, that could be a new love. That's not the past, it's the future. So I look at Rahu as new beginnings or Jupiter to the seventh house.

Also, don't forget, the fifth house can deal with love and romance. Put, put retrograde Venus there or Ketu going through the fifth. Okay, next.

All right. I love this question, Johnson J. It's about the Dashas. Why does the Maha dasha of Saturn take 19 years and the Maha dasha of the sun only 6 years? Why does the years differentiate through the mahandashas? I got news for you. I asked the same question. All of us ask that question when we get into Vedic astrology. And the answer is nobody knows. People can pretend to know, but the ancient, ancient Vedic seers, I don't know how they knew all this, but they're beyond this world. They gave us this beautiful, incredible system. And.

I was told by my teacher and many teachers that no one's ever figured it out, nor can they. So I Don't know, maybe you'll get different information. But that's the answer I got got from my teacher and from the many teachers that I asked the same questions. So I let it go and just. It is what it is. Right. I find it kind of interesting though that Rahu is 18 years and Rahu takes 18 and a half years to go through all 12 signs of the zodiac. We can assign and figure a lot of rationale, rhyme and reason, but nobody knows the entire answer to that. Okay.

Okay. So Joanne Galata asked the same question about weight gain from some of the houses. I think I already answered that in a different video.

Jupiter and Rahu or gain Saturn will bring loss of weight. Okay.

Okay. Samita Tana, for those of us who missed investing in the stock market at the end of March, can you comment on when after mid April will be a good opportunity to invest? I think right now is a great opportunity and to invest. I don't think you missed anything. Maybe it reached the bottom, bottom, but it's still going to come up so much higher than from where it is right now. Especially the airline stocks, you know, maybe even cruise cruise companies, but they're down and out. They're at their bottom. They're at their wit's end. They're closed up. Even restaurants are going to come back. The economy and everything will come back. We are not in a great depression. Remember what I say, there are going to be. So there are so many people that are billionaires right now where they're going to put their money. They're going to start investing. They know the stock market's going to bounce back. You got to ride the wave. Wait a couple of years. I think by the time of February, end of February and March of 2021, it'll be back. And those that invested now will be so pleased. So. So there you go.

But let me reframe that. I'm not an expert and I could be wrong, but I'm reading the stars. Most of the time, it's right. Okay. All right. Question by Joyce Gordon. When using a solar return chart, what's the best method for timing the events? Great question. Because when you do a solar return chart in Vedic called the Varsha fall chart, and you know you have this chart and it's for a year. When do you know the events are going to occur within that year? Well, I use the Mutadasha. The Mutadasha is a dasha system that's set up only for that Varsha fall chart for that one year. And therefore it changes quite rapidly. It's based just like the Vimshotri Dasha system, but you can see like the Saturn, the Saturn Dasha will last for, you know, let's say a month. And you know, it's just you go in and out of these dashas. So however those planets are placed in that Varsha fall chart will be indicative of the timing when that result will come within that year. So I hope that answers the question. But remember when you're doing the Varsha fall chart, which is the solar return chart that we use in Vedic astrology, it's actually a Persian system. But remember, you always do it for where you are born, not where you're currently living. Like there's a lot of theories in Western astrology that teach you to do that that is incorrect. It's got to be where you're born, just as the same as your birth chart. So I hope I've cleared up that question for you. So.

I'm, I'm an individual that had a lot of fixed star emphasis.

Should this be something to consider? Absolutely. Those fixed stars are powerful. Whatever they represent will bring into your life. But please remember, I look at them only as a degree and a half orb. You can't have them, you know, with three degrees. A degree and a half is going to give it to you. Such as the fixed star Spica. It's got to be like 29 degrees. Virgo00 Libra. That's going to be the star of an overnight sensation. Creative literary genius or music. That's a, that's probably the most auspicious star in the heavens. And don't forget Regulus, which is right there at 5, 6 degrees of LEO. That fixed star is going to have kingship qualities, leadership qualities. They will come into a position of leadership. So I'll tell you something interesting though. I read one time in Ebertine's book on the fixed stars that if you have Jupiter conjunct the fixed star Regulus, that you will be the astrologer to the kings. And, and I read that so many years ago because I have it. It was so exciting. And you know what I do read for many CEOs of companies leaders, it's not necessarily kings, but that's the power of fixed stars. And don't forget.

Donald Trump has Regulus right on his ascendant, six degrees of Leo. So to answer your question, absolutely.

Okay, so.

Next.

Can there be an out of sign conjunction? Is that possible? Such as Mercury being 29 degrees and Venus being 29 degrees of Cancer and Venus being 0 degrees of Leo. And this is from Radha Gail. Absolutely.

This can be missed quite easily. But you know, when it's within a degree or two, I'd say probably three degrees that they're in one sign to the next. Yeah, it's going to be a little bit weaker because it's in a different sign, but absolutely they're still conjunct. What I always tell my students is if you look up at the heavens and you see the stars and the planets and they're right next to each other, there aren't these big lines in the sky that separate them from not being conjunct. When they're in different signs or houses, they're conjunct. So yes, they are conjunct even though they are.

In a different sign and they're one degree apart. Absolutely. They're going to influence each other. Okay, okay. So. And here I am saying okay. And the next person I'm going to read from is okay. And their question is star Rigel, 24 degrees of Taurus. If this is in a chart, does it always in indicate major wealth regardless of what else is in the chart? Not always, but it is. What I do is I look for a conglomeration of indicators. That's one and plus if they have the ruler of the 11th and the second, or the ruler of the second and the 11th, or all these Dhana yogas and Dhana yogas, by the way, is when you have planets that rule either houses 2 or 3 or 12 or 11, 2 or 11 or houses 1, 5 and 9. If you have any combinations of planets aspecting each other by conjunction or opposition, then that's Adana yoga, meaning it will give wealth. So you look to the yogas and of course a Lakshmi yoga. What is a Lakshmi yoga? Great wealth. You got to have Venus in its own sign or exalted. So what is that? Either Taurus or Libra or Pisces. And you must have the earth ruler of the first house must be strong. The ruler of the ninth house must be strong. And what do I mean by strong? Placed in a good house and in a good sign. If you've got that, then you've got a Lakshmi yoga. You will be wealthy. Bill Gates has the most perfect Lakshmi Yoga. He has Venus in Libra and he has his ascendant ruler is Mercury. It's in Virgo in the fourth house. So he has a Badra Yoga, powerful Mercury. And the ruler of the 9th is strong as well by being it's Saturn. He has Gemini Ascendant. So Saturn rules the 9th and it is exalted in Libra in the 5th house. Perfect. Lakshmi. Yoga. So many other variables, but. Yeah, but not always. But I will say, if you've got that Rigel and these other things, yeah, it'll be definitely wealth. I've seen it worked every time with other variables. Okay, ma'. Am. I love when people call me ma'. Am. It makes me feel so old, but I know it's so respectful, so. But it's so polite. So, ma', am, can you. What does Rahu mean? Transit of rahu. When it meets Ketu and vice versa. I call this when Rahu's on Ketu and Ketu's on Rahu. I'm saying the transit of rahu hitting your natal Ketu, the transit of Ketu hitting your natal Rahu. I call this a nodal inversion. And what it actually means is.

That you're at a crossroads. You can't make up your mind because remember, these are the indicators of destiny. And when you have them like this, it's like you're reversing your ways. You're trying to decide something. You're changing. It represents radical change. Whereas when you have transiting rahu on your natal Rahu, and of course, natal Ketu. Transiting your natal Ketu, this is a nodal return. And what that indicates is that things are coming together, that you're being reminded of your purpose and destiny and what you're here to do. So one is confusion, the other one is completion coming together. So with that, I think I'll close this series and I'll start up at a later date with more questions and answers.
