What is Retrograde motion?

When a planet, which usually moves straight starts moving in the reverse direction, that motion is known as retrograde motion. All the planets in our solar system revolve around the sun. From our point of view, it looks like they are revolving around the Earth, which is only an optical illusion. This is the reason why it looks like Earth is stagnant and all the planets are moving around the Earth.

This state of the planets will overlap with Kaal Sarp Dosh, the results of which can be troublesome.

Effects of Retrograde motion

The reverse motion of planets can reap both good and bad results. In retrograde motion, planets are closer to the Earth, which is the reason why their affect is felt more. In such a situation, even the horoscope might bring out incorrect results. Thus, it is recommended to not start a new project or policy when planets are running reverse.
