And, excepting the retrograde ones, those planets which occupy unfriendly signs take away 1/3rd of their allotted term of life. Phaladeepika holds the view that a retrograde planet in its sign of debilitation is equal to its occupation of exaltation sign, and that exalted retrograde planets act as though they are debilitated. Situated in their debilitation sign if owning good houses Vakri grahas produce good results, if owning bad houses they give bad results. If the Sun is Arohi a Vakri graha although very strong but because of the variations in its motion does not produce results uniformly. Vakri grahas and Paramuchcha grahas no doubt gain superior strength but do not produce identical results and even become over-powered in Grahayuddhas. According to Sanketa Nidhi of Ramadayalu when it is retrograde Mars gives the results of the 3rd house from the house of its occupation, Mercury gives the results of the 4th, Jupiter of the 5th, Venus of the 7th and Saturn of the 8th house. Mercury and Venus can never be in the 5th to the 8th house from the Sun. Whereas Mars, Jupiter and Saturn appear to retrograde in the signs opposite to the one occupied by the Sun, Mercury and Venus appear to retrograde when they are farthest away from the Sun. A planet hemmed between two Vakri grahas behaves as a Vakri graha, this applies to the Moon. direct motion, when planets are freed from vakragati and are known as Margi grahas that are believed to be moving towards light. retrograde motion, when they are believed to be moving away from light, and the remaining five verities viz manda, manda tara, sama, sighra and atisighra refer to Rujugati i.e. Suryasiddhanta refers to eight varieties of motion of which Vakra, Ativakra and Kutila refer to Vakragati i.e.

Rahu and Ketu, which are not planets in true sense, have perpetual retrograde motion. The Sun and the Moon, the two luminaries, do not have Vakra state, they do not acquire retrograde motion, the other five planets (Tara grahas) have Vakra state, they acquire retrograde motion from time to time when they transit from 5th to the 8th house from the Sun. However, retrograde motion of a planet is merely an illusion, the planet only appears to retrograde, actually it does not and in which event if the faster planet is retrograde it can approach the slower planet from a later degree by backward motion which phenomenon is known as - "the applying aspect" in the Western astrology and the "Tajika System". the approximate midpoint of which period in respect of the superior planets coincides with opposition and the Earth is between the Sun and that planet. westward, amid the stars, this phenomenon is called retrograde motion, which motion invariably occurs at a time when that planet is visible for a relatively longer period. As the Earth passes by a planet that particular planet appears to move backwards i.e.
