Slow in Course

When a planet's speed is less than its average; it therefore moves less through the zodiac than it normally would. This is considered a debility.

The average daily distances travelled by the planets are as follows:

PLANET Daily Distance Travelled
Sun 59'
Moon 13° 10' 36''
Mercury   * 1° 23'
Venus     * 1° 12'
Mars 31'
Jupiter 05'
Saturn 02'
Uranus 42"
Neptune 24"
Pluto 15"


* - Since Mercury and Venus create epicycles around the Sun, their annual average distance travelled through the zodiac will equal that of the Sun
