As we know all planet are in motion around the Sun, When any planet start moving in reverse direction called Retrograde. However this only a part of mathematical calculation in Astrology, If a person is born while a planet is in retrograde motion, he/she is immensely effected by the planet’s qualities. Because when planet retrograde they are most nearby planet to earth.
If more than 1 planet in retrograde at the time of birth, then the planet with most number of degrees in its sign will effect the person more.
Sun & Moon are never Retrograde(Vakri) they are always in forward moving path(Margi), never get in reverse motion.
Rahu & Ketu are always move in Retrograde motion or direction.

Saturn is only planet which gives you more good result when it is retrograde in your chart.
After the Retrogation when planet again come back to forward path only Saturn is the planet which is Stationary (Time Period between – Vakri to Margi) for 2-3days. Stationary Saturn is considerd as most benifec
