STATIONARY PLANETS
This is from Dane Rudhyar's The Astrology of Personality" Ch. 8 and another interesting view on how stationary planets will behave psychologically.
"A stationary planet is said to be 'stationary direct' or 'stationary retrograde' according to the direction of its subsequent motion. In psycho-astrological analysis a planet can be considered stationary within a few minutes of the exact point at which it changes the direction of its course. The speed factor here involved is purely relative, and practically all that is required or useful to consider is whether the planet's speed is above average (in which case it is fast moving) or below average (slow moving). The faster the speed, the more rapid the flow of psychic energy in and through the function considered. When the planet becomes stationary, the speed, of course, equals zero.
The function symbolized is shown to have extreme stability. A peculiar kind of doggedness may well describe this condition. That particular factor in the conscious make-up of the person will not let go. It will resist change. It will offer a tremendous power of inertia. As it was in the beginning, so will it be ever after. Persons born with stationary planets will always present a characteristic of this nature. This of course will be emphasized if the stationary planet is also the ruler of the chart, or strongly placed.
The corresponding psychological factor will quietly but stubbornly hold its own within the consciousness, whatever may happen. Many examples could be given, but the difficulty is that usually the psychological characteristics depicted by a stationary planet are not obvious, except from the point of view of psychological analysis. The Saturn stationary in Richard Strauss' chart is a good illustration of strong egocentricity and of an equally strong sense of form. Its being in Libra gives an added artistic significance."
This is interesting... Juliana Swanson mentions that "Dane Rudhyar is saying a stationary planet will not reveal itself as much outwardly as inwardly via the psychology. Of course this would be different when Venus is involved as Venus represents vitality, beauty, talent and grace which are often so evident with stationary Venus charts.
Also consider the chart of the beautiful, gifted and eccentric late English singer/songwriter Amy Winehouse who was born within a few days of Venus stationary direct (she was born Sept. 14 1983)""
Other examples: Michelangelo venus stationary, Steve Jobs Mercury stationary, Tony Blair venus asc ruler stationary, Donald Trump Jupiter in 2nd house stationary e.t.c.

Sr is Stationary Retrograde about to move backward, Sd is Stationary Direct, about to continue its forward motion.
Posted by AerialViewBasically, a planet has to be Stationary (I.e Sr or Sd) before it becomes Retrograde (i.e Rx - backward motion) or Direct (i.e D - forward motion)they're both stationary. what is the difference between them?

E.g. I was born with Stationary Retrograde planets, Saturn and Uranus in Capricorn in April 1988 but my friends born the same year between June to late August were born with Retrograde planets Saturn and Uranus in Sagittarius.
These planets went Direct in September that same year. They both finally went back to Capricorn in December, 1988 if I remember correctly.
