Mars, a natural malefic planet, is transiting the sign Leo on the 20th of June, 2008. Saturn, another malefic planet has already transited into Leo. Both the planets are first rate malefics capable of causing sorrow and pain. Vaastu identifies the south direction for Mars and the west direction for Saturn.
Mars and Saturn getting together in the same house and in conjunction in July can agitate the south, west and southwest energies and can cause much concern to the strength and stability of certain astrological signs.
This conjunction is universally applicable with malefic and benefic results in varying levels of intensity. Mars, being a fiery planet, the primary element Fire related to the direction southeast comes into importance. Saturn relates to the primary element Air and brings into importance the direction northwest. Both are powerful energies that can cause enough distress to the inimical birth signs. Mars is a bundle of energy representing, like the younger generation, aggressiveness, fury, differences, disagreements and confrontation. Saturn, on the other hand, like the elder generation, is identified with suffering, difficulties, impediments and problems. These transits and conjunction in the same sign and their relevance to each astrological sign should be studied with reference to the prevailing planetary major and sub periods.

Given below are the likely results of the transits and conjunction of Mars and Saturn in Leo for each of the twelve Moon signs (Janma Rasi). As a piece of general advice, making important decisions at homes and offices can be kept on hold upto second week of August 2008, based on the results indicated.
Aries/Mesha
Financial imbalances and concern to/from children, ill health and disharmony.
Allow air to flow uniformly by keeping all windows open.

Taurus/Vrishaba
Sorrow, threats to spouse, failures in all undertakings.
Place a painting of a herd of non-violent elephants on the WEST wall of your living room.

Make liberal use of green colour by way of indoor plants, curtains, bed linen, clothes, furnishings, etc. You can set the mobile phone theme and wall paper to green colour.

Visit Lord Shiva’s Temple on all Saturdays for the next eight weeks.

The above table indicates unfavourable results for most of the signs except Gemini, Libra and Pisces. Though malefic, the Mars-Saturn conjunction tends to activate the mind, promote action and make you understand the realities of life. The above Vaastu and related guidelines can minimize the afflictions to an extent.

They could become more rigid in their desires. To avoid bad/adverse results to its best, any 'rigidity' in attitude could be guarded against.
