Tuesday Poll - Congressional Elections - Transits

Looking at President's Rasi Chakra for Transits :

Jupiter is in favourable transit in the 11th from Moon and that should be more than enough. Saturn is in opposition to Jupiter giving it the necessary support to almost recreate the situation that saw Obama through to the White House.

Republicans are sure going to be in for a surprise. 

Ha-ha-ha. I was wrong. Why ?  I had made a terrible slip by assuming Jupiter to remain in Pisces (Nirayana Position) till the year end. In retrospect, I feel I should have verified Jupiter's true position in transit. I completely overlooked Jupiter's sojourn in Aquarius for roughly six weeks (ending on November 22nd) as it was not highlighted in the Panchang. My sincere apologies for this slip. When predictions fail, blame the astro and not astrology.

On the day of Mid-term Poll, Jupiter was transiting the 10th from Moon Sign for President Obama and this led to the reverses. In transit, Jupiter in 10th causes professional reverses though one may enjoy job-satisfaction, putting in too much effort. Quite a few end up losing their jobs or sources of livelihood. This is the truth of astrology.

Why is Jupiter's transit so important ?

All good and bad effects - net result of all good and evil yogas operating on a horoscope - are passed on to individuals ONLY through 3 planets, namely Sun, Moon and Jupiter. For any good to materialise, at least one, two or all three of these, should be passing favourably in transit. This applies to Major Period and Sub-Period effects too.

Sun takes approximately a month to traverse a sign, whereas Moon takes only about 2-1/2 days to do so.  Jupiter takes approximately a year to traverse a sign. Hence, when Jupiter is in favourable transit, you could expect good effects to materialise almost throughout the year under consideration.
