Venus combust 2024 happens during 07:02 IST on 28 April – 07:57 IST on 11 July while in transit between Aries and Cancer.
During this period, Jupiter is combust in Taurus until 2nd June and Mercury is also combust until 24 June.
Vemus combustion or Sukra Moudhyami happens every year but this year, it goes on for 74 days across 4 signs Aries (Mesha), Taurus (Vrishabha), Gemini (Mithuna) and Cancer (Karkataka).
All these 4 signs, along with Taurus (Vrishabha) and Libra (Thula) will face impact of Venus Combust 2024.
During this period, which is called as Sukra Moudyami , Positive effects of Venus will be drastically reduced and thus people who believe in vedic astrology, will not perform any auspicious ceremonies during this time such as weddings, engagements, house warming, launching of new business etc according to Muhurtha Chintamani.
Also avoidable are signing agreements, changing or joining new job, moving to a new house, proposing love, change of work place, interior designing at home or office.
However, talks, paperwork for above, repair work and construction which started already can be done during this period.
Jupiter, another major positive planet also being combust in Taurus will gove extra freedom and energy to natural malefic like Mars, Saturn, Rahu.
May 2024 would be the worst month for mankind as Angaraka Yoga is fully active and 2 positive planets remain combust.
Venus, the planet of love, beauty, luxuries and comforts is within 10 degrees to Sun and goes combust. It can no longer be seen in the sky and significations of this planet suffer.
During this time, energy of Venus will be compromised or almost becomes NIL. Venus is one of the planets of Guidance (the other major benefic is Jupiter).
When we cannot see Venus we are “without guidance” and this is also called Venus Eclipse.
Venus is the planet of Value (Love and Relations). When it is invisible, it is harder to determine the true value of anything (Love, Gold, Relations, desired object etc.)
Therefore the 74 days period between 28 April – 11 July 2024 is a poor time for making decisions about love, relations, money.
This period is not suitable for starting new constructions, performing weddings, house warming ceremonies but it is okay to move into a new leased house or office space.
Venus, who controls movies, arts will not be beneficial for many who are depended on those fields. It is better not to start shootings of any new movies till early december.
Gold price remains stable but suddenly increases after July 2024.
This ‘Venus Eclipse‘ can be seen couple of hours after sunset in west direction. Venus appears as a small black spot on Sun.
Get ready for financial crunch, breakup in relations, rejections, cheating, loneliness, frustration.
Those born with Venus as their ruling planet (born in ascendants or moon signs of taurus or libra, with moon in nakshatras of bharani, poorva phalguni, poorvashada, (born on friday) can get frustrated easily, lose self control over petty issues, loss of income, get irritated if others are watching entertainment programs.
Venus weakness due to combustion gives high and low tides in life and need strength of other planets to enable us fight natal and or transit afflictions.
If Venus is a benefic in your personal horoscope (generally born in ascendants of Taurus, Gemini, Virgo, Libra, Capricorn, Aquarius) good effects will be minimized and if its a malefic for you (generally born in ascendants of Aries, Cancer, Leo, Scorpio, Sagittarius, Pisces), it gives some relief during this combust period.
Later Venus conjunct Ketu during 25 August – 18 September 2024 destroys love prospects and also chances of progeny if any couple are expecting it.
Luckily, Venus is not retrograde in 2024, which is good sign for love and long term relations.
Note : India’s ascendant is Taurus and its lord Venus being combust in 12,1,2,3 houses during transit is not good for its citizens and economy. International criticism, economic slowdown, riots, revolt against new laws and bills, border conflicts with neighbours possible.
New Zealand, Bangladesh, Australia, USA, Canada, China, Japan, Korea will be hit by cyclones, floods, earth quakes, economic recession.
Expect normal days only from October 2024.
