So Venus retrograde what does it bring about all the OCD aspects that Venus is in charge of so to speak right?
Aesthetics clothing appearance values materials positions all of these things can come up
So let's see the charts the natal and the Vamsa
Because natal is one to 36 years now as I suppose 36 years
of two famous actors
One from Bollywood, Dilip Kumar and one from Hollywood Charlie Chaplin. Let's get into this. It should be interesting
So Venus retrograde as a principle first, let's tackle the principles of it a
Retrograde planet in the natal chart or even in transition, but let's just speak of natal chart or individual charts
depicts a principle of overcompensation OCD obsessive compulsive disorder and
Excessive ego focus in relation to the planet that is a planet behavior in general and the house that planet sits in and
Aspects from the position of where the planet sits
In the case of Venus, we've done Saturn and Jupiter
Venus retrograde presents itself as an over obsession with jewelry with looks appearances physical appearances
Venusian aspects
Aesthetic sense choice of clothes all the filters that Venus provides
Right
Vanity in extreme cases especially if it's in ascendant and
ruled by Venus like Doris Libra
Venus retrograde affects the house it sits in and reflects most strongly in the opposite house seventh house place from itself
Okay, so now let's see the charts of famous two famous actors Dilip Kumar from
Bollywood and Charlie Chaplin from Hollywood because these are more Venusian because they are actors, right?
They have to portray
Both have Venus retrograde in their charts. Let's see how that affected them or let's try to understand if these two humans
Had these going on in their lives, we can only project. We don't know for certain
So so that's a chart of natal chart of Dilip Kumar the famous Bollywood actor. He
Had Venus in the 11th house retrograde in his chart
This ascendant is in shaman and Akshatra, which you shall see how it will impact because ascending nakshatra is the most crucial in
natal chart in any divisional chart for that matter
What does it provide remember the signatures of Venus retrograde?
Obsessive attention to aesthetics meticulous attention to visual appearance of everything
From clothing accessories to the living spaces desire for beauty and aesthetics may lead to a perfectionist approach
The wide-eyed say perfectionist approach. This is Capricorn ascendant Capricorn ascendant
People generally are perfectionists. They want to leave a thing till they finish it to the tea
And now it's 11th house now for an actor 11th house is very important
He was an actor because it's all about public appearance appearance to the external world
He might have had desire for social harmony community 11th house aspect think 11th house and Venus sitting there
It's also secretive if you want to look at it that deep because it's a house of Scorpio
Overtly focused on seeking social harmony may use social connections and create a sense of belonging
Among friends and social circles, so they might want to have an urge to do that
Venus retrograde in the 11th house may work through issues related to social interactions
social interactions 11th house is social community the larger community
Feelings of inadequacy and insecurity may come to the attention of others if
Venus is trying to overcompensate in the 11th house. This may lead to such an observation by people around them
They might have innovative fashion choices
They may have an innovative creative approach to fashion and personal style
They're not afraid to experiment with unique cutting-edge clothing and accessories
I think they'll mark was a little cutting edge for his times, right?
He's no more there with us, but when he was present he was quite unorthodox
Desire for aesthetic harmony in social circles Venus is all about aesthetics
So it will look for aesthetics in social circles when it is sitting in 11th house
Within social circles, they seek aesthetic harmony and compatibility. It is looking for similar though. Now this Venus
Balancing individuality with group dynamics Capricorn ascendant, which he was
highlights individuality but in social interactions working to balance uniqueness with the individuality
balance uniqueness within group dynamics
This is what was the urge of this Venus for this gentleman
Now 7th aspect from 11th to this Venus would be the 5th house
Right? So what does it lead to?
Venus are X in 11th on to the 5th in natal chart. We're still in natal chart. We'll come to Navamsha next
OCD creativity and artistic expression. Well, this is a good thing
Considering he was an actor perfectionist Capricorn in the area of creativity. Very good thing for an actor
May have an old excessive deep passion for the arts creative talents
This could come over as over planning aesthetics meaning micromanaging all the aesthetic part
Is this kind of clothing good for this particular cut or this particular role or this particular scene that we are shooting?
You see what I'm saying so it can come across like that Venus retro aspect can intensify romantic inclinations because 5th house is the house of romance
And he was a romantic hero type of material also he did many romantic roles the famous Moghalyasam
Maybe drawn to partners who appreciate aesthetics and share love for art and beauty
Children and parenthood they might be overtly focused on the aesthetic part of their upbringing bringing more artistic sense to their kids
parenting skills
Emphasis on personal pleasure. I want all these good things of my life, right?
May seek opportunities for entertainment leisure and joyful experiences. They may want to go out find dine
In fact, I saw him when he was alive in copper chimney restaurant in Mumbai
Sentimental approach to romance and creativity Venus retrograde sentimental nature is further emphasized by 5th house aspects
May have deep emotional attachments to romantic relationships
I think he and his Mrs had a fantastic life together
Because this Venus will be overtly devoted to the partner also
aesthetic choices in romance
May plan aesthetically pleasing and memorable dates like I said find dine
Taking to all fancy restaurants fancy resorts. This Venus will really quote
The person they are in love with they show them with all the attention. It's a good thing
Let's see the nakshatra shawana nakshatra and how that plays
Now he's ascended nakshatra in natal
If you looked at that was shawana, right?
The main challenge of shawana is to listen to good counsel, but the real firing up comes with a life lesson
Inclusiveness of goal is required to find the path
Now his goal was to become an actor because Venus is already there
Even sun is there if you look at other planets
So he found his
Inquisitiveness of the goal pretty
Pretty successfully might say because he became a very very successful actor, right?
So that's the
Life lesson of shawana. That's how it plays out
In relation to Venus retrograde, however, it might play out as you need to know who is your right partner
Because Venus is all about partnership, especially for males in the male chart Venus stands for the opposite sex
Now let's see his navamsha
Okay, the navamsha chart
Venus for him
Has moved to the second house retrograde
Remember if it's retrograde in natal it goes retrograde in navamsha as well
This is navamsha of dilukumar
Ascendant is in punarva swamiji
Ascendant is in punarva sunakshatra in gemini
What does this lead to?
Let us see
Now in his navamsha
Venus has moved to the second house retrograde. What does it lead to?
Obsessive attention to aesthetics and material comfort second house is house of earned wealth
Second house is the house of
your value system
Especially in the context of personal belongings meticulous attention to visual appeal and quality
Of the items they have let's say their house. It's also the home environment second and fourth are immediate family
Perfectionist approach to personal style clothing grooming accessories must be met with very high aesthetic standards. Venus is aesthetics
May invest significant diamond effort to achieve the desired look now whether this was true for this gentleman only the purse people closest to their
This individual might know
Sentimental attachments to material positions Venus attached Venus and moon attaches a lot of aesthetic and sentimental value
Now it's in the second house to home and family
Venus retrograde often signifies sentimental attachment to material positions
Desire for aesthetic harmony
Probably he would have sought for this virtual virtually pleasing comfortable surroundings
Even personal appearance personal value system might be affected by Venus filter so to speak
Challenging past financial patterns second house is the house of finance
Venus retrograde often prompts
Revisiting of past financial patterns and issues may have had that because it's also looking at the 8th house
And let's talk about that seventh aspect
8th house house of joint financial assets secrets
Intimate relationship with the spouse
Joint financial assets transformation
Deep attachment to material positions as inheritance
It's the house of inheritance
Influence of Venus retrograde here can bring sentimental attachments to material inheritance after marriage
You don't know this
He misses his wife would know this
Especially those related to shared resources
Intense financial transformation
Less so in this case I would say if it was lord of the eight
For example, if he was a Libra descendant this would have been really powerful
But since he is Gemini ascendant not so much
Financial matters can become a focal point for profound change. They might experience
Intentional financial ups and downs. Why? Because
This
house
Is being looked at by Venus retrograde
This is being looked at by Venus retrograde
So you might be thinking about it might not actually happen
If the lord of the eight is situated there Venus retrograde might actually happen
Powerful emotional bonds in intimate relationships Venus retrograde often indicates strong emotional bonds
Revisiting past relationship patterns
In an introverted kind of way retrograde brings about introversion of these he might have these as private feelings
Eight houses the house of secrets
And Venus retrograde is looking at that
You see what I'm saying
Exploration of financial emotional depth
They may be drawn to exploring deeper aspects of their life in terms of finance joint financial assets and emotional matters
See how this can play out
Now let's see quickly
The ascendant punar vasu
life lesson
Is to bring bring to life the dry mind by one's own moistness of
Emotion therefore in his navamsha chart this would have played out pretty dominantly. This is my take on it
Because Venus is about emotions and punar vasu is driving towards that life lesson
Now, let's see Charlie Chaplin's chart
natal in navamsha
That's the natal
Chart of Charlie Chaplin the famous actor one of my favorites
What a beautiful soul
His ascendant is in swati nakshatra in Libra
Ascendant is in swati nakshatra in Libra, which is ruled by Venus and Venus was retrograde
And it's in seven thousand as I have put it there. So imagine the implications of this
So Venus retrograde plays out very very strongly in a person's chart
If it is the lord of the ascendant and it has gone retrograde
Okay becomes a dominant theme of OCD
How did this play out? Venus RX in seventh
To the ascendant that's the reflection first. Let's see Venus RX in natal
Aesthetic sensitivity affecting of others because it's in the other house now
The lord of the first is in the seventh and it's retrograde
So a lot of focus on the aesthetic aspects around them everything about others more so spouse and relationships
Hightened aesthetic sensitivity towards others and acutely aware of aesthetics of his surroundings
He might have been more focused on the set his clothing the director the take he's an actor was an actor
Including appearance clothing and decor
Diplomacy and social skills
Now if it's a Libran by default they are good diplomats swati ascendant is a very good person
Ascendant is a very good diplomat. They don't like to offend people
And because the lord of the ascendant is in the seventh house it likely to possess strong
Diplomacy and social skills extreme diplomacy at one's own cost
Charlie Chaplin might have been a kind of person who's constantly thinking about others
You must have worked to maintain self-esteem while fostering harmonious connections with others
Seeking harmony in relationships deeply influenced by opposite sex
It's in the house of spouse is in the house of intimacy and spouse
relationships
Relationships with the opposite sex specifically and Venus the lord of the ascendant is sitting right there looking at it
All relationships can be karmic in natures
Why why do I say that it is retrograde retrograde typically issues from past life carried to this life
And it is sitting in the house of spouse in the house of relationships
So my guess is all Charlie Chaplin's relationships must be
People from his past life has intimate connections
Sometimes to the point of accommodating needs
This would prompt revisiting and resolving past karmic relationship issues
Exploration and creativity
With others everything what others
Emotional investment in appearance is deeply tied to self-worth especially because it is reflecting back
The seventh place on the ascendant now. Let's see Venus in the ascendant what it provided Charlie Chaplin
The reflection of Venus from seven to the first gives us what
Retrograde so obsession with personal style past house is the ascendant one's own personality body head mind
Obsessive about personal style appearance
Fashion choices often affecting the self-worth of the individual now Venus retrograde because the lord of the ascendant
Ascendant is looking all at itself like a mirror reflection
Opinions of the opposite sex matter to him a lot
especially women
The women in his life his co-actors
may have
Affected whatever they said about him a lot. He took it very personally perhaps
Charming and graceful presentation pleasing and
Harmonious demeanor that makes them approachable and likeable to others. Duh Charlie Chaplin was of that kind
Everybody loved him
Over to desire for harmonious relationship with opposite sex
Venus sitting right opposite and it's looking at him
He might have wanted to create an atmosphere of comfort and cooperation diplomacy swati nakshatra ascendant
Sentimental attachments to jewelry and possessions
I don't know about this but this often is a reflection of needing a lot of jewelry kind of thing
Let's see the swati nakshatra aspects now
His ascendant
Is swati nakshatra and natal. What's the life lesson of swati?
Individuality needs solitude for perfection and discovery of new territory
Charlie Chaplin started something very original in terms of content individuality
He would have wanted that at all costs
But what did he do that provided in that?
In terms of Venus ascendant
In terms of Venus ascendant all these characteristics would have helped him to bring about that originality of swati in his life
But this is just before 36 years. Let's see his navamsha
now in navamsha charlie chaplin
Went from being a Libra ascendant to Aquarius ascendant
Air sign to air sign this becomes very very
abstract mental thinking Aquarius and ascendant in poor vapadra. But I mean we shall see how it affected
And now Venus went to jeshtra nakshatra in the 10th house
So it all became everything about Venus and about others. See how it dictates even the career path
Even the last one we saw delip Kumar was in the 11th house. This is in the 10th house
So you might say Venus retrograde in 10th or 11th for a person is a strong indicator of wanting to follow acting
career path is acting
So now let's see Venus retrograde in 10th house artistic career path
Career success is emotionally significant driven by aesthetics and artistry
Venus here suggests that they may have a deep-seated artistic expression
wanting to come out especially if it's Aquarius. It's all about others the 11th house
Balancing individuality with career that's another problem for Aquarius ascendant isn't it because they're all about others
Yet they want to be individual Swathi wanted to be individual in the natal
Now it wants to be all about others
With Aquarius ascendant Venus retrograde they might seek to balance their unique individuality in their professional life
See how it affects the career because it's Venus retrograde in 10th
May be inclined to pursue non-traditional career paths
Charlie Chaplin had a very unconventional life as an artist
Unique brand of it
Innovative approach to professional image they may seek to present themselves in a way that reflects their unconventional ideas
Look at his dressing in that black and white movie. He does the typical Charlie Chaplin. Think about that
Balancing eccentricity and professionalism
Venerable Badra Badana Kshetra in a certain it is very eccentric right it's anything but conventional
The combination of an Aquarius ascendant and in poor Badra Badana Kshetra Venus retrograde in 10th
Emphasizes the need to balance eccentricity with professionalism
Intimate partnerships with people from work Venus retrograde in the 10th
He might have met lots of his better halfs lots of relationships
Affairs with actresses actors these days female actors
In his acting career most of his partnership would have come from work because this is an avamsha
Now let's see how it affects the reflected part on to the fourth house
Okay
So this reflection from 10th house Venus retrograde to fourth house in Aquarius ascendant for Charlie Chaplin
would bring what unconventional home environment
Poor Badra Badana Kshetra Aquarius very unconventional may prefer original and innovative approach to interior decoration
Their house it's reflecting on the fourth house
Choosing furnishings and decor that reflect your individuality and modern days now I don't know how Charlie Chaplin did it for his house
People know who know him might know
Emotional connection to specific objects inside his house
These objects may have a significant personal value for them
Balancing individuality and home harmony now individuality is one thing in the 10th house but in the home environment
This unconventionality will play up for him
But they need to balance this make harmonious and comfortable home environment can be a recurring theme and an obsession for them
It's retrograde remember so your OCD will come out
Sentimental attachments to home
They may have a strong emotional attachment to their home which can manifest as desire for stable and comfortable living
He might have been obsessed with his home decorating his home with unconventional stuff
Emphasis of modern technology with Aquarius ascendant which is all about modern technology software internet was not there in his days
To incorporate gadgetry inside their home this is another theme of Aquarius
Revisiting past family dynamics home family fourth house
With Venus retrograde influence may prompt revisiting of past family dynamics and home environment especially since his natal chart was all about Libra Venus
It was ruled by Venus
Now let's see poor Va Badrapada and Clusa
Poor Va Badrapada Nakshtra which is his ascendant Nakshtra in Namam Shao
Will play out dominantly what is the theme here life lesson is dissolution of materials in sacrificial fire for higher purpose finding true depth brings peace to internal anger or fire
That's a life lesson of poor Va Badrapada seems quite hectic isn't it
Now if you see his chart it was a prominent actor you got Venus retrograde sitting lord of the first natal chart lord of the ascendant now in 10th house
In the Namam Shao son later on life he might have become all about others
How do I achieve these Venus perfection in my tradition in my work career as an actor and take it to the fourth house
So that would have become his obsession later on in life which plays out in this poor Va Badrapada Nakshtra
So Charlie Chaplin my guess is to wrap this up
In later part those who were close to him might have figured this out
He became all about others I am not interested in materials I am not interested in all these things
I just want to get rid of all these things to sacrifice these materialistic things in order to be benefit to others Aquarius
That's how it played out in his life probably
In the next one let's see Mars retrograde and we shall take this probably I'll do it with politicians or maybe popular personalities more so politicians
Mars is very political Shatria
We'll see you next take care be safe
