Greetings!
I am away to the The Navagrahas Tour and
Panchanga and Ayurveda and medical astrology
courses in India till 25 Feb 2007. It is a spiritual
journey to pay homage to all the planets. I will try to
give a
short synopsis and pictures in the next newsletter.
Mercury does its first retrogrde of 2007 on 13th
Feb. It is always a time to double check all
arrangments .I have given the retrogrades of other
planets as well and the next
installment on Relationship course. There is
information about the BAVA conference in April 2007
and the March workshops- Past life in London, UK as
well as Pleasanton CA. Pleasanton weekend also has
the secret life of Rahu and Ketu.

FEB 07- Venus and Mars enjoy their exaltations while Mercury causes Chaos with its retrogration |

Saturn is finally away from its gandanta degrees so
we can relax and enjoy what else 2007 is offering.
The passionate
Mars and the beautiful Venus both go into
exaltation almost the same time in February.

Mahashivaratri. is the night for Shiva. It is a when we

food or water. It is a special festival as the devotees

mantra Om Namah Shivaya at least 108 times....

Planetary Retrogrades of 2007 |
 |
All planets turn retrograde except the Sun and the
Moon. I have created a table with all the dates of
the retrogrades. it is important to know about the
day planets turn retrograde and direct as these are
disturbed energies and can have effect on the quality
of life. it is important not to plan important events
the day any of the planets turns retrograde. the
whole period of Mercury retrograde must be watched
as it throws communication challenges at us. Use
this link below also to read the article I have written
on Retrograde planets in 2006.
