Yesterday, on 17th August 2011, Sun and Venus both have entered Leo (Simha) in a direct motion. Shukra is poornasta which means it is fully combust as of now and will remain in such a state for next one month. It will end its transit on Leo on 10th September 2011 when it enters Virgo. Sun will stay a little longer and will enter Kanya Rashi on 17th September 2011.

While Surya enters Leo around the same time every year, in mid August, Venus keeps on shifting its entry in different signs including Leo every year. Last year, Venus was in Simha from 5th July 2010 to 1st August 2010. Its next transit in Leo will be from 28th September 2012 to 23rd October 2012.

This transit of these two mutually rival planets in the swagrah of Surya will have some seriously bad results for most of the people. Sun will not be able to bestow its full bounties and Venus too will be unable to bring any peace and relaxation to those who otherwise get them from a usual sole transit of Shukra in Simha.

As India's horoscope has a Vrishabh ascendant, this combust and weak state of Venus does not give any good results for India. While the political and social turmoils within India will intensify and the common man's voice will become stronger, the economic health of this big nation will suffer big setbacks.

It is advisable for all to refrain from investing any big money in stocks, real estate and even in bullion for long term. Short term investments can be done but that too with a lot of caution.
