3. If a planet is debilitated and retrograde in Navamsa chart but anywhere in Rasi chart, will be helpful

4. Natural benefics (jupiter,venus,mercury,moon) if own 4,7,10 houses from Ascendant and are retrograde, then will cause more problems in all aspects to the houses they own and also the house they’re placed in.
