Planetary Transits and Lunar Eclipse 2022

As we recuperate from the back-to-back festivities of Navratri, followed by Diwali, the start of November looks a little bumpy for everyone. With the eclipse season looming over us, there are multiple reasons why you might need to practice caution and stay alert until the overcast passes.

In our previous blog on the solar eclipse, we highlighted and predicted a potential change in global leadership in the upcoming days. And, with Rishi Sunak becoming the youngest Prime Minister in the UK, our analysis was true.

Despite the changes and the ongoing turmoil in our lives, things aren’t going to be as dark and morbid. Things will look better from November 24, 2022, paving the way for improvements and positive shifts in everyone’s lives.

The eclipse season is extremely volatile and paves the way for extreme unrest in the world. Witness mass stampedes in South Korea and even the Bridge Collapse tragedy in Gujarat, India, are some of the disastrous phenomena that are a direct consequence of the cosmic events that happen during an eclipse season.

This blog will highlight all the details you need about the upcoming 2022 Lunar Eclipse and the November planetary transits.

Note: Hang around till the end of the blog for a very lucrative tip.

November Planetary Transits and Their Potential Impacts

November 2022 is a questionable and unstable period that will witness a start to several planetary transits.

The following are the most important ones worth knowing.

1. The Venus and Ketu conjunction happened on November 03, 2022 (IST) at 19 degrees and 08 minutes.

Effects – The period ain’t the best for relationships, and you might find yourself experiencing issues with your partner. Feelings of detachment and deprivation of love are also heightened. If you are experiencing a financial crunch, it could be amplified during this period.

2. Sun and Ketu conjunction will happen on November 06, 2022, at 19 degrees and 00 minutes.

Effects – There will be a rise in ego clashes and ongoing issues on the leadership level. You might notice drastic changes in government policies. Now is also a great time to care for your father or fatherly figure.

3. Mercury and Ketu conjunction will happen on November 07, 2022, at 18 degrees and 58 minutes.

Effects – This planetary transit will lead to communication issues. Also, now is the time to take care of your children and pay attention to their health, safety, and well-being. You might notice issues related to software or computers or even face problems related to documentation.

P.S: All the above conjunctions are happening in Swati Nakshatra in Fourth Pada.

4. Total Lunar Eclipse is happening on November 08, 2022, at 21 degrees and 46 minutes in the Bharani Nakshatra.

Effects – Since Venus, Mercury and Sun are with Ketu and Moon, Uranus will be in Rahu in Aries, and almost every person will experience an impact on their lives – in some way or the other.

• Since it’s the lunar eclipse, pay close attention to your mother and prioritize her health and well-being. There will be a surge in emotional tides, inflicting a lot of restlessness in people.
• If you are making life-altering decisions, now is not the best time to make rash decisions. Since Mercury is involved in the phenomenon, it will directly impact our logical thinking capability, misleading us with the wrong data and information.
• Sudden changes in mood and emotions are to be expected during this period. Just ensure that you don’t become too happy or too sad. Take charge of your emotions, at least until November 16, 2022, which is when the Sun is moving into Scorpio (Vruschika).
• Also, since the Lunar Eclipse is happening during a full moon, feelings of anxiety, rage, loneliness, and clouded judgment might be amplified.
• When prioritizing your health, be mindful of the various viruses and infections impacting people. Some of them include the newer, mutated strains of Covid, swine flu, dengue, etc. Wearing masks and focusing on personal hygiene are highly encouraged.
• Risks of heartbreaks, break-ups, relationship issues, hoax relationships, etc., are also likely to happen during this period. Kindly don't jump in and off relationships.
• Avoid any new property deals or engage in business partnerships during this time.

(World News Update) –

• The upcoming elections in the United States are happening on November 08, 2022. Doesn’t look like a smooth event, but much unrest and conflict.
• Mars is in retrograde motion and will enter Taurus on November 13, 2022, at 20:50 (IST). The combined phenomenon of the total lunar eclipse and Mars retrograde might trigger and escalate the unrest and the wars that are going on between Russia and Ukraine. We also cannot ignore the unrest in Iran.
• There are chances that India might make solid and historic decisions regarding the POK situation.

P.S: Events never happen on the eclipse day but are triggered during that period and happen in the near future.

Understanding the Total Lunar Eclipse

According to Wikipedia, “A lunar eclipse occurs when the Moon moves into the Earth's shadow.” The phenomenon happens when the Sun, Moon, and the Earth are closely aligned in a syzygy pattern, where the Earth is nestled between the Sun and Moon.

In their recent tweet, NASA highlighted that the Moon will pass into the Earth’s shadow during the November 08, 2022 eclipse, leading to the “Blood Moon Phenomenon.” This will be the last eclipse in 2022 and the last lunar eclipse in the next three years.

According to NASA, the next total lunar eclipse will happen on March 14, 2025.

Since this is a total lunar eclipse, the entirety of the moon will be engulfed in the Earth’s shadow during the period of maximum eclipse. The part of the moon inside the umbral shadow will be illuminated by the Sun, leading to the reddish appearance of the moon.

Timings of the Eclipse (calculated as per Pune/Mumbai - IST)

• The total Lunar Eclipse will begin at 14:39 (IST)
• Maximum Eclipse (Grahan Madhya) will be at 16:30 (IST)
• The total Lunar Eclipse will end at 18:19 (IST)

Visibility – Since Venus, Mercury and Sun are with Ketu and Moon, Uranus will be in Rahu in Aries, and almost every person will experience an impact on their lives – in some way or the other.

Sutak Period

• The Sutak Period will be on November 08, 2022 (Tuesday), from Sunrise until the end of the lunar eclipse, until 06:19 PM (IST).
• The Sutak period for pregnant women, children, older people, and unhealthy or sick individuals will be between 11:00 AM to 06:19 PM. Practice caution during this period.

If you are concerned about the various precautions to be taken during an Eclipse’s Sutak period, we’d recommend referring to our Solar Eclipse blog we posted previously.

Remedy during the Total Lunar Eclipse

The best remedy to tide through the impacts of the total lunar eclipse is to chant “Om Namah Shivay” during the eclipse season.

Chanting this mantra and similar mantras will have amplified benefits during the eclipse.

Good Times are Ahead of Us

Although things seem gloomy, dark, and tumultuous at the moment, please be patient because the days will get better eventually.

• As we move ahead, Venus is moving into Scorpio (Vruschika) on November 11, 2022, and will steer away from the Sun on November 17, 2022. It will further be aspected by Jupiter. The onset of this period will bring relief for the Taurians (Vrushabh) and Libra (Tula) Rashi people. Capricorns (Makar) and Aquarians (Kumbha) will also experience an improvement in their lives.
• Mercury will enter Scorpio (Vruschika) on November 13, 2022, moving away from Ketu. There will be a planetary war with Venus for a small period, but the phenomenon will be aspected by Jupiter. Although Mercury isn’t in the best position for Scorpio at the moment, being away from Ketu will bring a lot of relief.
• Sun will enter Scorpio (Vruschika) on November 16, 2022, at 19:15 (IST), getting out of debilitation. This will bring huge relief as we step out of the eclipse zone. Sun and Mars are aspecting each other vigorously between 8-10 December 2022. Watch out for aggression during this period. However, the silver lining is that the Sun is aspected by Jupiter, which indicates that world leaders will make wise decisions.
• The most benefic planet in the Solar System, Jupiter, will turn direct in Pisces (Meena rashi) on November 24, 2022. (Note: We will be writing a detailed blog on that. So, stay tuned!)
• Saturn will finally catch up speed from November 18, 2022, and will move and progress towards Aquarius (Kumbha) in its Moolatrikona Rashi on 17th Jan 2023. (Will share a detailed blog towards the beginning of 2023 for you to plan things ahead)

Quick Tip: If you experienced good times during May-June 2022, similar positive experiences would also grace your life. Kindly be patient.
