Leading Astrologer Predicts Major Planetary Aspects Of 2009
Washington – 15.01.09 – Leading Astrologer Carol Barbeau has listed the major planetary events up coming in 2009. 
“2009 is a number 11 year of MASTER SPIRITUAL Partnership. Dream the dream (Neptune in Aquarius) get the vision using Uranus the planet of change in Pisces bringing more dreams and visions to us all. Jupiter in Capricorn moving January 5th into Aquarius bringing major shifts in the ways we learn and believe…. Saturn in Virgo all year asking as to discipline ourselves, learn to pare down and recognize that less can sometimes be more’, says Barbeau in his predictions.
Retrograde stars or planets need not infuse the fear psychosis. Instead it should be a catalyst for rethinking and reconfiguring every aspect of your life, the astrologer says. It may not be a time for everything new and changed. But it is not also a time to hide and remain complacent to changes.
In his in depth analysis the astrologer points out that Sun, Moon, Mercury, Venus, and Mars are the personal planets. Sun is the light and never goes retrograde. Moon that represents past and emotions also never goes retrograde. Mercury that represents ideas retrogrades three times. Venus that is the representative of love retrogrades every year. Mars representing action also retrogrades every alternative year.
There are also transpersonal planets, points out Barbeau that shifts events happening in the outer world. All such planets and asteroids retrograde every year. These planets are Jupiter moving to Aquarius on 5th January, Saturn moves to Libra on October 29th and prior to that remain in Virgo. Neptune will be in Aquarius year round and Pluto will be transforming in Capricorn throughout the year.
According to Barbeau, the Asteroids that create “new energy of equality and healing are” Chiron moving to Aquarius on 30th October, Juno moving to Aries on August 9th and then to Pisces on 3rd November, Vesta will be direct till 3rd January, 2010 and Ceres retrogrades to Virgo on January 11th and moves directly to Virgo from April 12th.
Each of the planetary movements has their own significance on our lives and the society at large, concludes Barbeau, though the impacts would be relative to several other factors.
Indian astrologer emphasizes maturity effects of planets
New Delhi – 30.12.08 – Leading astrologer of the country emphasized the maturity effects of the planets on the human lives in course of discussion over the planets and their importance in astrological studies. 
In course of such discussions, many were of the opinion that Vedic Astrology is superior to most other divination systems, including the Western Astrology. The level of accuracy and precision in prediction is the qualities that make it superior to others.
“Predictive methods are based on very complex calculations and there are numerous methods which will pinpoint timing down to the exact minute. However there is a simple method which gives remarkable results and should be taken into account when seeing a chart”, says noted astrologer Veno Trivedi.
Explaining further the effects of planets and the houses on human life, he went on to say that the planets and houses give their maturity effects at a certain age in the person’s life. That is why the significance of the planets is much more in this regard. The method is one of the most important among the various methods used for predictions in astrological studies.
“It can often work like magic” continues Veno Trivedi. “In some cases just knowing a person’s age without having access to their chart can give you a strong idea of what they are experiencing in life and how that planet corresponding to their age actually functions in their chart.”
He says that maturity chart will show the intrinsic nature as well as the results of its chart placement. The intensities will continue till the maturity of the next planet. Each of the planets has its own maturity period starting from the 16th year or 15th birthday for Jupiter at one extreme and 48 years or 47th birthday for Ketu on the other.
Similar maturity periods are also prefixed there for the houses in a person’s birth chart he said going ahead with a detailed description of each planet and houses and the effect of their maturity on human life.
