Retrogradation

Post by Jim Eshelman » Thu May 11, 2017 5:33 pm

(Apr 7, 2012)

Retrogradation is, at best, a very minor factor. In most instances, I ignore it completely - 100% - and am certain I lose no relevant information.

Retrograde condition does, however, have a strong enough effect to show with weak significance in statistical examination. I crunched the numbers, over 30 years ago, for a study T. Patrick Davis undertook on the effects of retrograde and stationary conditions. It was no surprise to me at all that planetary stations show with a pleasingly strong statistical significance. I don't know where my file is on that, but my recollection is that results regularly surpassed the 5% (and occasionally 1%) threshold, the effect of the station being that it hyper-intensified a planet's nature. (Remember the "hot iron moving vs. sitting still on a blouse" analogy.)

What did surprise me was that retrogradation showed anything at all. The effects were weak - I don't think any of them much surpassed the 10% threshold. And the quality was (in grossly simple terms) a diminishment of the planet's effect. I suspect that there is a qualitative distinction, instead of a quantitative one like (say) the effect of a planet being background; but it was never strong enough for me to get a clear handle on it. As mentioned above, I'm not convinced it's worth any attention when I'm looking at an actual horoscope. (And I remain skeptical of the common metaphors astrologers have tried to make from the "going backwards" idea, though I admit to contributing my own effort by saying the planet acted kinda sorta like it was "whimpering home.")

That all refers to individual retrograde planets.

Of much greater interest, though, is the issue of how many planets are retrograde in a particular chart. John McCormick explored this - possibly the only astrologer to do so - in his 1975 work, The Book of Retrogrades. Anna-Kria King and I looked at his work enough to verify his research anecdotally, and she has kept it alive in her own work, reminding me occasionally of its value. The concept is pretty simple. (This is my summary, not McCormick's, but I think it's consistent with what he found.) Most people have 2 or 3 planets retrograde. (56% of all people have 2 or 3 planets retrograde. This increases to 75% of people if you count a single retrograde also: 1, 2, or 3.) The more one diverges from this number [which usually means, the more planets one has retrograde], the more "outside the odds" one is. That is, the more one seems "outside the norm." At the far extreme are people who are radicals, odds-breakers, etc. I'm not sure how this distinguishes from a strong Pluto influence, except that additional Pluto traits (e.g., tendency to isolation and "removing" oneself) aren't necessarily present.

As McCormick summarized at one point: "More and more I suspect a public distrust or perhaps mistrust of those with more than two retrograde planets. This attitude is reflected in the native's tendency to withdraw either into a solitary occupation or into one which he can exercise without having to please others."

This is a consistent enough effect anecdotally that I thought it worth reviewing McCormick's work here and letting people play with it.

Here is the expected frequency for how many retrograde planets one has (counting only the eight non-luminary planets normally used):

0 - 8%
1 - 19%
2 - 29%
3 - 27%
4 - 13%
5 - 4%
6 - 1%
7 - 0%

[7 planets retrograde was last known to occur for 2 dates late in the 19th Century.]

Re: Retrogradation

Post by Jim Eshelman » Thu May 11, 2017 5:33 pm

Here are some of John McCormick's interpretations for these different conditions. I merely repeat them, not necessarily endorsing any particular statement. Consider them premises to be investigated.

0 Planets Retrograde (8%)
"...those who are required to expend enormous [physical] effort in the pursuit of their goals... They are required to perspire, to endure beyond reason, and to submit themselves to long and rigorous period of training." He found this "in abundance" for athletes and dancers, and a striking 11% of U.S. Presidents (through 1975, of course.)
NOTE by JAE: I fall in this category. If effort is considered physical, as McCormick insisted, then it is strikingly untrue of me. If the physicality is removed, then most people would consider the above fitting me exactly. Also, I have not undertaken long periods of training in the usual way this is meant, and have entered several fields successfully without the kind of formal training usually required (e.g., practiced law for a decade). - I see something unencumbered about people I know with no planets retrograde: In particular, there is a strong tendency to get away with almost anything in circumstances where most people expect to be called to task for it. (Consider both Bill Clinton and George W. Bush - both of whom, in different ways, have nearly made a career from being unscathed to the utter bafflement of their detractors.) - (Note Bill Gates here vs. Steve Jobs @ 5.)
RECENT U.S. PRESIDENTS: Bill Clinton, George W. Bush. (Add: Abraham Lincoln)
RECENT PRESIDENTIAL CANDIDATES: Al Sharpton, Newt Gingrich

1 Planet Retrograde (19%)
"... the lone wolf... works alone and achieves alone... neither needs nor desires the participation of others... friendly because he is fearlessly independent." McCormick found this "most often" among writers and bullfighters, "but not confined to them." Statesmen had only 6%, far less than expected; and it didn't occur at all in his collection of generals' horoscopes.
RECENT U.S. PRESIDENTS: John Kennedy, Jimmy Carter [Cf: Napoleon Bonaparte, Vladimir Putin]
RECENT PRESIDENTIAL CANDIDATES: Dennis Kucinich, Rudy Giuliani

2 Planets Retrograde (29%)
Going with the general premise I gave above, McCormick observed that "these people would seem most usual to us since we encounter them most often." (More people fall in this category than any other.) He found that the career "depends upon public acceptance and appreciation." For example, his samples of politicians and statesmen had a "whopping" 64% in this group instead of the expected 29%. He concluded that 2 planets retrograde will "make one more easily acceptable to the public."
RECENT U.S. PRESIDENTS: Harry Truman, Dwight Eisenhower, Lyndon Johnson, Gerald Ford, Ronald Reagan, Barack Obama, Donald Trump [Add: Tony Blair. Cf: Adolph Hitler.]
RECENT PRESIDENTIAL CANDIDATES: Dick Cheney, Joe Lieberman, Dick Gephardt, Howard Dean, Hillary Clinton, John McCain, Sarah Palin (Add: Robert Kennedy)

3 Planets Retrograde (27%)
Nearly as common as 2 planets. McCormick observed, nonetheless, that the 2% from the prior category "is sufficient to disturb the public confidence" of the prior coccurrence. The occurence of 3 retrograde planets, and the presumed absence of public acceptance, "seems to drive the native... underground" and "gives birth to a sullen determination to excel." It "quite often in chess masters and matadors.
NOTE by JAE: Notice how McCormick's characterization resembles the normal behavior pattern of "second oldest" child in family constellation.
RECENT U.S. PRESIDENTS: Franklin Roosevelt, Richard Nixon, George H.W. Bush
OTHER REPRESENTATIVE PRESIDENTS: George Washington, John Adams, Thomas Jefferson
RECENT PRESIDENTIAL CANDIDATES: Al Gore, John Edwards, Ron Paul (Add: Edward Kennedy)

4 Planets Retrograde (13%)
McCormick found this most frequently among writers (23% vs. expected 13%). As this is much less common than the prior two categories, he finds "a tendency... to withdraw and seek expression in private."
REPRESENTATIVE U.S. PRESIDENTS: Theodore Roosevelt (who was so atypical that he probably couldn't have gotten elected on his own), Joe Biden
RECENT PRESIDENTIAL CANDIDATES: John Kerry, Wesley Clark, Mitt Romney, Joe Biden, Rick Santorum

5 Planets Retrograde (4%)
No U.S. President ever had more than four retrograde planets. (It seems they are too far removed from acceptable, recognizable, mainstream.) Generals showed 8% (double the expected). McCormick concluded that people with 5 planets retrograde "while demonstrably capable, tend to exercise their talents away from the public gaze." I would add that folks tend to regard such people with suspicion, having an instinctive sense that "they're not like most folks."
RECENT PRESIDENTIAL CANDIDATES: Rick Perry

6 Planets Retrograde (1%)
The three best known people born in the 51 days (between 1880 and 1980) when six planets were simultaneously retrograde are Angela Davis, Muhammed Ali, and Janis Joplin. Since all three have a Capricorn Sun, some of the observable common traits are also reltated to a strong factor other than the number of planets retrograde. Nonetheless, when seen in the context of the emerging pattern above, a more extreme version of the "5 retrogrades" pattern seems discernible. (McCormick was even more conservative, and declined to draw any conclusions at all.)

7 Planets Retrograde (0%)
Essentially never occurs. (It only occurred for 2 days in the late 1800s, and 6 days in 1984.)

me too! :shock:
Jim, thanks for the refreshing look at retrogradation! the only literature on the subject known to me previously was Martin Schulman's "Karmic astrology", and bits from Jeff Green's book on Pluto, both of which approaches are based on theories, with no appeal to the student to examine it by observation

Either it's my angular Saturn, or it's the 0 planets, but yeah, I definitely feel that the definition fits. I frequently find myself in situations that require a lot of endurance and sweat (fortunately I have an overabundance of both). I also do tend to get away with stuff. :lol:

I don't think people regard me with suspicion. People generally seem to like and accept me but, I'm told, regard me as something of a mystery because they never know what I'm thinking.

I'm not sure there IS a deeper meaning. I suspect it's pretty basic. With 5 planets retrograde, you are statistically on the fringe of the general populace, so your behavior is probably on the statistical fringe as well. ;)

I know a young person with autism, and they can communicate for the most part, but he is way out there. He has 5 planets retrograde with Jupiter being stationary retrograde. I'll share his chart sometime, it's as "outside of the norm" as it sounds.

Interesting. I've never given retrogrades much weight in delineations (maybe "no weight" would be a better description), not least because of the pop astrology nonsense that retrograde = bad. Since I have five retrogrades (Jupiter through Pluto), I rejected this out of hand. I never thought of counting retrogrades as opposed to trying to parse the difference between what (say) Jupiter retrograde would mean vs. an otherwise similar Jupiter direct. Yet the delineation above for five retrogrades fits me very well, and I have a particular affinity for the music of Janis Joplin (six retrogrades)....

I must say that I think that this is just nonsense. Those characteristics in people will most certainly show up just by looking at their planets on angles/background and their aspects and probably have nothing at all to do with retrogradation. The planets up there never actually move backwards as we know :D ...and although they do appear to sometimes, they are actually just on the move and we do not have any concrete evidence at all that it would matter in a natal chart.

Let's take what Venus_Daily says above for an example. She says she is
a very logical person
...well looking at her chart for Kingsville Texas (do you live there now?) she has Mercury partile sq her ASC, and Mercury is indeed the planet of logic. She says it is kind of like
depressive realism
...well with that Saturn squaring her MC, so another planet affecting her angles. Saturn is also partile sextile her Sun and a bit wider sextile to her Moon. In addition she has Pluto on Vx. She states that Neptune is background (seems like it is middleground) ... but we can also see that both luminaries and both benefics are middleground/background. To me, all explanations to her statements can be explained by this.
viewtopic.php?f=11&t=1187

Venus_Daily, have you ever considered relocating to your Venus line? Your Venus receives an aspect from Jupiter, so bringing Venus to an angle might be very benefic for you. Might be worth going to Darwin, Australia for a few weeks to see how you feel over there :) ...Australia, in general, seems like a good place for you.

IMO, the only true value of Planetary Retrogression is this 'apparent' viewed factor only from earth is the cause for planetary 'stations' on sensitive points with our charts. There is no doubt in my mind when stations occur on sensitive points in our charts--it is very important. Why, I don't fully understand, because in true astronomical motion reality--a planet is never actually retrograde--it only appears to be retrograde if one was actually looking at the planets from earth with the different planetary motions (speeds). A most excellent example of a 'station' exists with Sidereal Mundane Astrology: At the beginning of World War 11, Mars was 'stationed' at 00,01 Capricorn (a master sensitive point in the Sidereal Zodiac)--partile 180 1939 Cansolar Sun from a most dynamic aspected 1939 Cansolar, which indeed was the supreme Sidereal Mundane Chart that truly timed the beginning of World War 11.

I'm sure you're right: retrogrades are a tiny shading at best, and the Joplin thing is an amusing coincidence. The rest of my chart concurs with the five retrogrades delineation. This sort of very minor significance may be marginally useful in some cases. For example, let's say a natal chart has Jupiter and Saturn of approximatly equivlent "stength", with Jupiter clearly the stronger though to a small degree, yet observation of the native himself/herself clearly shows Saturn to be the stronger (again to a small degree). In such a chart, I would expect a chorus of minor items yelling "Saturn". Yet ignoring this sort of thing might affect the accuracy of your readings by say 1/2 of 1%.

An unrelated aside: when I hear Joplin's Lord Won't You Buy Me A Mercedes-Benz in a Mercedes-Benz commercial I want to (a) spit blood and fire and the TV, and (b) laugh uproariously at the same time.

Retrogradation is weakly statistically valid. This thread gives naval gazers some direction they may find useful in order to Delve More Deeply into their charts, but the above quote from Jim right at the very top of the thread also says you and I can safely ignore it.

(I decided to keep this in the same thread as the foregoing. I don't think it's worth an independent thread.)

I still hold the view that retrogradation, though weakly statistically significant, is a factor so minor it can be ignored.

Nonetheless, in the spirit of ongoingly challenging old conclusions and of providing actual data for a statement, and since I'm now in a place to pull large numbers of notable people from a data base, I'll post below lists of people who have each of the eight non-luminary planets retrograde. Feel free to explore and to share observations.

OBSERVATIONS: While a rare "impaired Mercury" example like Marlee Maitlin appears in the list below, there are many examples - a majority of the list - of people who have effectively made their impact on the world with their words, including numerous significant writers, a remarkable list of outstanding scientists, etc. I see an interesting cluster of significant film directors (most of the directors in this particular collection of charts). Nothing in this list suggests to me any of the attributes traditionally assigned to Mercury Rx. (It would be easier to argue that this is a premium Mercury list.)

OPERATION: One might think Venus Rx, if meaningful, would have some more obvious impact on one's personal relationships. However, no negative impact on partnerships seems evident from the list below. In fact, we find several enduring, quality romantic (wedded) partnerships, though the circumstances are different in each case (e.g., Alan Leo had a celibate marriage). With negative relationships we could cite the repeated marriage troubles Carole King experienced or perhaps Demi Moore's on-again, off-again pairings. However, for positive partnerings (commonly of real partnership on many levels) we find (among others) Alan Leo, Queen Isabella, Laura Bush, Pete Buttigieg, George H.W. Bush, Princess Claire, and George Takei. -- Of course, there are cruel and violent people in the list, but it seems unlikely this pertains to Venus Rx since there are also outstanding examples of compassion.

  • Pres. Geroge H.W. Bush, PM Winston Churchill, Chancellor Adolf Hitler, King Charles VIII, Pres. Charles de Gaulle, Queen Isabella I, Sen. Cory Booker, Sec. Condoleezza Rice, Sec. Pete Buttigieg, Princess Claire Coombs, Laura W. Bush, Gov. George Wallace, Omarosa Margault,
  • George Boole, Thomas Henry Huxley, Terence McKenna,
  • Alan Leo, Alfred Witte,
  • Lizzie Borden, Ted Bundy, Stephen Paddock, David Koresh,
  • Carole King, Chaka Khan, Wynonna Judd, Melanie C, Amy Winehouse, Susan Boyle, Anna Moffo, Nathalie Stutzmann, Ringo Starr, Stu Sutcliffe, Johannes Brahms, Giacomo Puccini,
  • Florence Farr, Dorothy Dandridge, Tallulah Bankhead, Olivia De Haviland, Hedy Lamar, Audrey Hepburn, Tuesday Weld, Morgan Fairchild, Kathy Bates, Marcia Gay Harden, Demi Moore, Ellen DeGeneris, Elvira, George Takei,
  • Pearl Buck, Theodore Sturgeon, Ken Kesey, Clifford Irving,

OBSERVATION: If there is anything to natal planets retrograde, it seems to me that it should be most evident in Mars - a planet fast enough that it doesn't slip into the patterns of the outer planets, and which has a strong impact on how one expresses energies and takes after life.

On casual inspection, I do see an interesting end of life pattern I haven't noticed in the Mercury or Venus lists: There seem to be many deaths from serious disease or violence, plus some suicides. (Not a majority of the examples, but more than I'm used to seeing in one place.) The ones I notice on quick inspection include: Valerie Harper (cancer), Linda McCartney (cancer), Linus Pauling (cancer), Freud (cancer ended by morphine), Mozart (unspecified inflammatory disease), Dudley Moore (degenerative brain disorder), Karen Carpenter (cardiac failure from anorexia), Judy Garland (accidental OD), James Dean (violent accident), Will Rogers (plane crash), John F. Kennedy Jr. (plane crash), Karen Silkwood (car accident or homicide), Martin Luther King Jr. (murder), George Lincoln Rockwell (murder), King Ludwig II (suicide or murder), Virginia Woolf (suicide), Michel Gauquelin (suicide), Naomi Judd (suicide). Some less unusual examples (everybody dies from something) that, nonetheless, were newsworthy deaths include Cass Elliot, FDR, and Jim Morrison.

There are few politicians or eminent heads of state and few (but bloody) murderers.

  • Emperor Augustus, Pres. Franklin D. Roosevelt, Marshal Henri Philippe Petain, King Ludwig II, Justice Samuel Alito, Betty Ford,
  • Linus Pauling, George Boole, Sigmund Freud, Hans Eysenck, Gustave Eiffel,
  • Alan Leo, Michel Gauquelin, Reinhold Ebertin,
  • Lizzie Borden, Florence Maybrick, William Heirens,
  • Alice Cooper, Andrew Lloyd Webber, Annie Besant, Bernadette Peters, Billy Jean King, Cass Elliot, Valerie Harper, Virginia Woolf, Eleanor Smeal, Florence Farr, Helen Reddy, James Dean, Judy Garland, Jesse Jackson, Jim Morrison, Jimmy Page, Lauren Bacall, Linda McCartney, Theodore Sturgeon, Robert Heinlein, Mother Meera, Morgan Freeman, Mila Jovovich, Maurice Jarre, Paul Simon, Pauline Hanson, Philip K. Dick, Phyllis Schlafly, Rodney King, Robert Downey Jr., Wolfgang Mozart, Will Rogers, Sally Kellerman, Salome Jens, Steffi Graf, Chelsey Clinton, David Copperfield, Dinah Shore, Dolly Parton, Dr. Dre, Dudley Moore, Erich Segal, John Wayne Bobbit, John F. Kennedy Jr., Karen Carpenter, Karen Silkwood, Kenneth Branagh, Lauren Hutton, Lord Byron, Louisa May Alcott, William Burroughs, Barbara Hershey, Marion Davies, Naomi Judd, Nate Silver, Martin Luther King Jr., Lin-Manuel Miranda, Chuck Berry, Diane Sawyer, George Lincoln Rockwell, George Takei, West Craven, Jojo

Re: Individual planets retrograde

Post by Jim Eshelman » Mon Jun 20, 2022 4:43 pm

Having tabulated these lists today, here are my first impressions (always subject to change).
  • The easiest conclusion is that there is nothing to retrogradation in a natal chart. Whatever might seem to be here is so slight that either they don't exist or there is nothing important lost by ignoring them.
  • The death patterns with Mars retrograde are the most interesting possibility I see in all these lists.
  • Were I to require myself to make a conclusion that there is something here of substance, it would be the opposite of the usual view: It would be that there is a favoring or enhancing of the planet's themes, not a reduction of them. - This is interesting since all planets when retrograde are closer to Earth than any other part of their orbit (in case planetary distance is important) and, at least during most of the retrogradation, are moving slower than average (which is something we already suspect is a factor).
Primarily, the first point in the above list is my conclusion at the moment.

Re: Retrogradation

I've never noticed any disturbances with retrograde planets in transits... but I also have to admit that I haven't really done any thorough study. I've just thought to myself when I see people comment that "it must be because of Mercury retrograde" that they experience trouble with communication or "it must be Venus retrograde" if there are troubles in relationship. I've ever been able to see the same for myself at such times.

I have Mercury, Jupiter and Neptune retrograde in my natal chart and I'm glad to see so many very successful people with the same "condition". :)

Thank you for this thread Jim.
