Signs You Are Going Through a Bad Planetary Phase

Have you ever experienced a time when everything in your life seemed to go wrong? Your career lacks success, your relationships create burdens for you and your health has deteriorated yet you continue to try but nothing works. You start to wonder what your mistakes are. The situation is beyond your control because not all occurrences are your responsibility. The problem exists because certain situations depend on celestial bodies. 

The Vedic astrology system establishes different time periods for each person which different planets will control their life through the Dashas and Antardasha system. Your life functions as a train journey which depends on various planets operating at the front of your train. The journey becomes smooth because a beneficial planet controls the train. The train experiences rough movement because a weak planet controls its operation.

How can you determine that you are experiencing a negative time?Let us examine symptoms which people can easily understand. 

Before we jump into the signs, let's understand what we are actually talking about. In Vedic astrology, your birth chart contains nine celestial bodies which include the Sun Moon Mars Mercury Jupiter Venus Saturn Rahu and Ketu. Every planet in the system governs a particular time frame which defines your existence. Saturn governs a Mahadasha period which lasts for 19 years. Rahu governs a duration of 18 years. The Sun rules a six-year period. 

The planetary phase which governs your current life stage brings challenges because its ruling planet shows weakness and its placement in your birth chart shows unfavourable conditions. The period which astrologers designate as a bad planetary period represents a difficult dasha period. The interesting thing about these phases is that they arrive with identifiable signals .Your daily life starts dropping subtle  and sometimes not-so-subtle hints. 

The worst signs which show bad planetary phases start with this first sign. Your current work efforts match your usual work pace. You are putting in the effort. But the results? The results of the work show three possibilities which include delays and complete hidden results. The job interview which you expected to succeed with you did not lead to positive results. The business deal which you believed would succeed breaks down at the final moment. The project which you dedicated your passion to now faces cancellation or complete neglect. 

Your current phase shows that the planet which rules you at this time provides you with unfavourable results. The challenging dasha of Saturn creates this particular experience because it forces people to work harder while achieving smaller results. The system appears unjust yet astrology through its teachings demonstrates that Saturn uses this method to develop your patience and character. 

The most obvious indication of a negative planetary period shows itself through relationship issues that emerge without any warning. Your relationship shows problems because you and your partner argue about small issues which suddenly turn into major conflicts. Your relationship with your family shows problems because you feel increasingly distant from them. 

Venus rules love, harmony, and connection. When Venus is afflicted in your chart or going through a difficult sub-period, even loving relationships feel like hard work. Similarly, the Moon governs your emotional world. A troubled Moon phase often brings mood swings so intense that people around you cannot understand what is happening to you. You may not even understand it yourself. You feel more irritable, more sensitive, and more prone to emotional outbursts and this naturally strains the people closest to you.

The negative effects of the planetary phase impact your external surroundings together with your internal mental state. The signs of your subconscious mental pressure from planetary stress show through your disturbed sleep pattern which includes experiencing vivid bad dreams and waking up at 3 AM with racing thoughts and feeling anxious without any obvious cause. Rahu the shadow planet specifically causes this particular type of mental restlessness. During a difficult Rahu phase your mind becomes filled with thoughts about potential dangers that might occur in your life. You experience a sudden onset of unwarranted anxiety. Your mind focus shifts to things that should not have an impact on your mental state. 

The financial system begins to display unusual patterns. You encounter financial difficulties because of unexpected costs. A major repair expense occurs when something in your house breaks down. Your business investment which you believed would succeed has now failed. The salary increase which you were supposed to receive has been postponed for several months. Repeated financial difficulties that come from multiple sources represent one of the strongest indicators of a negative planetary period according to this pattern. Vedic astrology identifies wealth and prosperity as domains which Jupiter controls. Your current dasha period will limit your financial progress because of a weak or afflicted Jupiter. The combination of Saturn and Rahu creates a difficult situation which results in multiple problems. 

Your body exists in deep connection with the energies of the planets. Different planets control different body parts. The Sun controls both vitality and the function of the heart. The Moon controls both the mind and the body's liquid contents. Mars controls both blood circulation and muscle development. Saturn controls all elements that relate to bones and teeth and persistent medical conditions. The presence of unexplained health problems together with constant fatigue indicates that you should investigate planetary influences as possible reasons. You will experience extreme fatigue when your body enters a weak Sun phase because your confidence will decrease and your digestion will become difficult.

The sign proves its value because people tend to overlook it as a reasonable coincidence, which shows that your timing always falls short. Your decision-making process leads you to make an incorrect choice because external factors experienced their most disruptive period. You purchase travel tickets for your upcoming journey, but the planned event gets cancelled. You leave your current job to join another company, which later faces difficulties. You make a financial decision after studying information, which later proves to be no longer relevant. The person experiences a recurring pattern where they find themselves in situations that require them to be somewhere else.

This one is a bit harder to notice because it requires someone else to point it out. During a bad planetary period, your energy field shifts. You become more suspicious of people's intentions. You withdraw socially. Your general outlook becomes pessimistic even when things are objectively okay. Close friends or family members may mention that you seem "different lately" or that you are harder to be around.

This is not a character flaw it is a planetary influence on your energy. Ketu, one of the shadow planets, is known for creating this kind of detachment and withdrawal during difficult phases. People under a heavy Ketu period often feel like they do not belong anywhere, like they are watching their own life from a distance.

The first sentence can be difficult to understand because it needs someone to point out its existence. During a bad planetary period your energy field experiences a shift. Your level of trust in people's motives increases. You socially isolate yourself from others. Your general outlook becomes pessimistic despite positive events which happen around you. Close friends or family members may mention that you seem "different lately" or that you are harder to be around. Your energy experiences this effect because of planetary forces which operate in your system. Ketu, one of the shadow planets, is known for creating this kind of detachment and withdrawal during difficult times.
