Saturn Rahu Ketu Clash
March-October 2019

From around March through October, 3 Malefic planets Saturn Rahu Ketu interact with one another. Astrologers & savants are publishing predictions concerning its implications for the world. Saturn (Grief, retribution, obstacles, separation); Rahu (Vehemence, uproar, rough behavior - like Saturn); Ketu (Hinderance, degredation - like Mars).

Transiting Saturn conjoins transiting Ketu and opposes transiting Rahu in sign of Sagittarius March-October 2019. Fortunately, in early November transiting Jupiter, great benefic, enters Sagittarius. From this position of strength & influence, he sheds his blessings on the situation thereby passifying the rancor between the 3 malefics. Problems should ease as the date approaches.

Individual is the unit of society. Saturn Rahu Ketu planetary configuration is likely to cause suffering, rough transformations along with obstacles, challenges, separations and breakdowns in people's lives throughout 2019. This is likely to be the case for those currently running Major or Minor planetary periods ruled by Saturn, Rahu or Ketu; Or if your current Major/Minor planetary period is ruled by a planet associated with 1 of these 3 planets; Or if you have key planets in late degrees of Sagittarius/Dhanu, Gemini/Mithuna, Virgo/Kanya or Pisces/Meena.

It is however, important to remember that purification leads to progress. Although great benefic Guru/Jupiter does not intercede until November, prior to this time, the 3 malefic planets interact in Jupiter's sign of Sagittarius. Although transformations maybe rough, ultimately they pave the way for progress when transiting Jupiter ameliorates the situation in November.

It should also be noted that Shani Rahu Ketu have positive sides to their natures which are not mentioned above. The mechanics of 2019 transit are such that due to their close proximity and challenging aspects (conjunction and opposition), the worst sides of their natures tend to express.
