The year 2024 – 25 is called Shri Krodhi, it means an ‘angry man’ in Devbhasha Samskrutam. And it seems to be living up to its name, starting off with a bang with the Angarak yog in Pisces from 24th April. And immediately followed by the Sun combusting Venus for a whopping 66 days from 25th April to 29th Jun 2024 (as per drikpanchang). (Youtube video here)
Venus will be combust as he transits through the zodiac signs, Aries, Taurus and Gemini. As he moves combust through these signs, those of us who have these signs as the Birth Moon sign will see the effects. In addition Taurus and Libra Birth Moons and ascendants will also feel the effect of their personal planet going combust for such an extended period. If you are in one of the following categories then you will feel more intensely as combust Venus’s energy is more active on you.
- If you are going through Vimshottari dasha connected to Venus, ie Venus mahadasha, or any sub-period of Venus.
- If you are Taurus rising then taking care of personal health and the issues in your immediate surroundings is necessary, minor illnesses are possible. This is the most determined sign of the zodiac so you might be even more stubborn and headstrong than usual.
- If you are a Libra ascendant then you might see a sudden transformation in your life which will change foundations of your life.
- If you are a Taurus or Libra birth Moon then also you will see confusion in your life as your emotions, intuition and instinct all are influenced.
- Note which house Venus is transiting in your chart, expect turbulence from the keywords of this house.
- If you have Venus combust in your birth chart then the effects may be more significant for you in this time frame.
- If Venus is a malefic planet for your ascendant sign (post here) then you may be able to make some significant gains in this time frame.
For Leo ascendants, if your Lagnesh, ie birth Sun is powerfully placed and your Yogkarak Birth Mars is supportive then you can use the energy of the combust Daityaguru and the ongoing Angarak yog to take risky chances in this time. Some life time gains are possible. But if you are operating in the grey areas of the law and ethics, then think twice.
Venus will be within 10 deg of the Sun, thus he will be scorched, burnt to ashes and unable to give his auspicious results in this time. He is the Daityaguru Shukra Acharya, one of the two gurus of the zodiac and thus guidance, blessings, timely help, luck, etc will be reduced for several of us in this time. He represents value and validation, and this will be affected in our lives. We may fail to recognise the true value of the things around us and we may not get the validation we expect in life. Just remember that Venus will get ‘absorbed’ in the Sun. The Sun becomes a complex Sun+Venus combine. The abilities conferred by Venus don’t vanish but are used as per the direction of the Sun. The Sun adds his specific properties of self ego, personal radiance, typical selfishness, a feel that he is above the rules, elitist nature, entitled behaviour etc to the mix.
So as Venus goes combust, all equitable relationships, legal issues, contracts, partnerships, marriage etc all one to one relationships including personal spiritual practices will take on a selfish tone. Possibility of frustrations, loneliness and breakups is possible. Financial losses are possible. Addictions may start. Recognition for creativity will reduce, some might not get paid enough for their work. Forgeries, cheating, corruption, immorality etc can increase. Decision making capacity will decrease. Some might find themselves tangled in issues which do not have a life-time or long-term value. Avoid giving advise to others, else you will be blamed when things go wrong later.
So in this time it is advisable to be careful when signing any new contracts, finalising any new partnerships or starting a new job and especially financial investments should be made only after due diligence. Do not let your personal ambitions misguide your common sense.
Followers of Sanatan Dharma will not organise auspicious events like marriage etc in this time as there are no muhurts available. New projects are not initiated in this time, but ongoing projects can be continued. This time is not favourable for all creative arts and artists. Economic slow down is possible now. Real estate market will be affected. And Gold prices will suddenly shoot up in July as soon as Venus combustion ends.
For Bharat, the ascendant sign is Taurus. So as the Lagnesh Venus goes combust, the energy will affect all Indians. I hope the leaders are able to use the power of the Sun + Venus in a more positive direction to handle the mischief which is possible. Possibility of civil disturbance, political tensions, pressures from other nations, border issues, economic issues, etc are possible. The government will also take strict means to address these issues, as authoritarian polices will be more favoured under the influence of the Sun.
Remedies are as always, Mantra, Daana and intelligent behavioural adaptations. Mantra of the Sun, especially offering Surya Arghya is a good way of balancing all solar energy. Mantra of Venus on Fridays or pujas of Devi in her mild forms on Fridays. Then offering Daan of items linked to Venus on Fridays is another option. And the most important is performing the daily pujas which hold your life together.
Combustion of Venus and for such an extended time frame will affect everyone. Some will use the energy to get ahead in life and several will remain confused by the sheer quantum of fiery energies. Astrology offers a way of understanding and channelling this energy. Jyotish is the lens of perception and we must use it in the right way to make use of the energies around us to achieve our goal in life.
