It is always true that planetary transits have a much stronger effect upon the life experience when the native has a matching Vimshottari period in operation. In regard to the current discussion on the effects of the exceptionally long transit of Mangala through the inauspicious rashi of Karkata, be aware that folks who have particular Mangala placements in the Jyotisha nativity will be personally affected. Nativities which do not feature the matching natal placements and the matching Vimshottari periods may not be affected by transiting Kuja whatsoever.
It is important to note that unless one
(1) is a "karaka type" of Mangala (warrior, young adult male, hunter, pursuer/conqueror, athlete, notably and successfully competitive personality)
or (2) has a Jyotisha nativity which is specifically affected by the 234 transit of Kuja through Karkata rashi, one may be completely unaware of the effects of Kuja. The transit does not affect everyone. It will strongly affect only a few specific nativities which feature the Jyotisha phenomena listed below.
If the native has more than one of the listed affected placements, the effect doubles. If three items are involved, effect triples.

Gochara Kuja Karkata - What to Expect: World and Personal
What to expect during Mangala's 234 day passive-aggressive tour of Karkata, from 05-Oct-2009 until 26-May-2010?
In the world of nations, expect an increase in energy of angry defensiveness and more frequent occurrence of covert invasions. Regions that have intensive Mars influence such as most of Africa and the Middle East, and other areas prone to the eruption of war and sexual assault, will feel an intensification of existing emotional tensions between adversarial parties.
War
Kuja in Karkata does not indicate an outburst of new fighting. Rather, neechcha Kuja will deepen long-established underlying frustrations, and increase the repetitive intensity and vigor of reactive, projected blaming, rooted in psycho-emotional frustration.
Mangala in Karkata does not incite warfare directly. Rather, during the time that Mangala transits Karka rashi, existing animosities are psycho-emotionally repeated through angry blaming and adversarial intensity is reinforced. This long-term behavior during an extended transit of Mangala through Karkata will lay the foundation for future overt conflict. During this time, the target populations (Mars People) become increasingly habituated to polarizing rhetoric. Self-advancement, which is always Kuja's goal, is increasingly achieved through covert methods of blaming, stealing, and running interference in the lives of others.
When and if the time comes for physical war, the Mangala-dominated populations will have long demonized their outside target. 's conviction the war is honorable and necessary to "eliminate conflict" is long , projecting their own inadequacies and weaknesses (things unacceptable to Mars) upon the Other.
Violent or over-energized Water
Neechcha Kuja can be a tragic agent of severe water damage. E.g., typhoon, hurricane, flood, ocean storms. If associated with domain-8, one's cause of death may be drowning. If associated with domain-6, water-borne disease related to a violent watery storm.
Crimes of Sexual Manipulation and Coercion
Kuja-Karkata is associated with sexual invasion on emotional pretense or as a method of emotional domination or coercion. The karaka agents within the family are predatory male family members, notably brothers. (Mangala is the significator of brothers). Also implicated are fathers, uncles, and grandfathers who may feel they have a brotherly privilege with the victim. During the extended transit, these social aberrations become more prominent and newsworthy; public outrage is stimulated, perhaps by a neechcha Mangala related tragedy.
Invasive or abusive parenting; family incest
Karkata (Karka, Cancer) is the rashi of shelter and nurture, home and homeland. The people and places of Karka include protective parents, supportive teachers, the early childhood home, buildings and vehicles, and local culture validations such as licenses, diplomas, certificates, passports, and other proof of belonging in the homeland. Emotionally and socially, Karkata indicates "secure foundation". Spiritually, Karkata is the "eternal and unchanging home" that is pure truth.
When Mangala, the graha of male hormones and animal instinct, enters the normally placid parental realm of Karkata, one outcome can be sexual-emotional invasion by the parents, the male siblings, or both. In the most severe angles of a Jyotisha nativity, neechcha Kuja with no corrections may indicate a frustrated parent (typically but not always the parent) whose inner emotional violence emerges in sexually invasive behavior toward the child. The child's sense of protection and shelter is damaged. Without conscious intervention, the child may go on to perpetuate the cycle of invasion as the only known form of parental bonding with the child.
The invasiveness of neechcha Kuja does not always manifest physically. Emotionally invasive parenting behaviors such as meddling, criticizing, and blaming; disturbing the food-nurturing cycles (for example, parental taunting toward a child for being self-protectively overweight or constantly interrupting their meals) are also possible outcomes of a severely neechcha Kuja. If the current transit triggers any of the key lagnas or natal positions, the Mangala disturbance is exacerbated.
In the USA celebrity news, the beginning of gochara Kuja's long incursion into Karkata (rashi of protective parents and the childhood home) was signaled by actress MacKenzie Phillips revelation that she had a long-term incestuous sexual relationship with her celebrity father. This revelation in the public conversation space (internet and television) created an upsurge of awareness and outrage against this social crime. Expect rape as a weapon of war to become a major issue of social policy discussion during the Kuja transit.
Karaka of Mangala - the Types
The worst affected parties will be virile young men, who epitomize the competitive, self-assertive, muscular, sexually conquesting, warrior- huntsman who is Mangala. These young men lack the maturity necessary to understand the benefit of cooperative and collaborative process in human relations. They feel a powerful animal instinct to fight, win, and be a hero; they are in the developmental social stage of desperately trying to show independence from their mothers; and they are too young to imagine the long-term consequences of their actions.
The karaka population in particular will find that their normally direct, selfish, muscularly forceful aggression is suppressed. The heroic recognition they seek must be achieved covertly, using psycho-emotional projection weapons such as blaming. It is very hard on the karaka Mangala type when their environment prevents them from acting fiercely, directly, and successfully in life.

Trouble at Home - Contentious, Emotional Fights
In Karkata, Mangala cannot move forward; He must "fight in place". Therefore, Kuja is a troublemaker in the domestic scene.
In the modern world, our "domus" remains the family home, but also now includes the national homeland and the global environment. Kuja in Karkata gives "frustration and blaming at home" or in the homeland.
Social policy issues related to parenting, storm shelters, the very old and the very young, national and personal security, government protectionism, government-as-parent (Big Brother), property ownership, and ocean-life may all arise in contentious and emotionally manipulative debate.

Passive-Aggressive Violence; Coercion and Extortion
Neechcha Mangala, a good planet gone awry, can express His desire to dominate and control others through criminal exploitation.
In the most severe situations, when neechcha Angaraka applies multiple pressures in the nativity – such as simultaneous drishti to important lagnas, to Chandra, perhaps to Budha the karaka for writing (extortion notes), and especially drishti to Shani (who rules human law and social control) – Mangala in neechcha condition can become an agent of crime. In particular, sexual blackmail.

Reactive resistance - Neechcha Kuja
In Karkata's oppressive environment, Kuja is often forced to engage with other people's problems before He can solve His own. In Karkata, Kuja encounters an obstacle course of reactive resistance from people who are stuck in their own routines and who resist innovation, movement, and change. Mangala must either dominate or eliminate His adversaries. Kuja must still pursue His quarry in the hunt, but in Karkata, His movement is so encumbered that must use entirely psycho-emotional methods to conquer and win.
While not overtly or intentionally deceptive, Kuja in Karkata is vastly slowed in movement by the deep waters of emotional need, and His vitality is handicapped by resistance from people and forces in His environment. He is unhappy, reactive rather than proactive, and covertly rather than overtly disruptive. Kuja's actions, even when dishonorable, may be protected by the family that He is harming (see Thomas Jefferson, whose second family through his slave-mistress was denied for centuries)

Getting Stuck - Mangala can't swim
One of the driving psycho-emotional features of Mangala in Karkata is the inability to negotiate constructive change. The native gets "stuck" in repetitive, dysfunctional patterns and is unable to emerge from his dilemma because he keeps using the wrong weapons for the environment.
Imagine a skillful and athletic warrior, dressed in metal armor, trying to fight a sword battle while standing in cold water up to his neck. He cannot accomplish very much and he is enormously upset and frustrated. His skills seem worthless yet he feels the same urgency to fight and win. Imagine firing a gun underwater – the shooter has very little control over the trajectory of the bullet in that environment; perhaps the gun will not even fire. It is very hard for Mangala to fight, contest, pursue, and conquer in Chandra's land, the watery abyss.
Mangala still needs to win, but in the viscous, womb-like environment of Karkata, He must win by emotional manipulation rather than direct confrontation. He must conquer the object of His sexual desires by seductive plea rather than direct pursuit. He must represent himself not as warrior-hunter seeking domination and conquest (which is His true nature) but rather as a peace-seeking, stability-loving, diplomatic agent trying to move things along in a way that is best for everyone.

Immature aggression - Kuja
http://www.hubblesite.orgKuja operates most naturally on the physical plane, and the Jyotisha age for Mangala's maturity = age 28. Kuja is an inherently immature graha who naturally does not consider the longer-term effects of His actions. (Kuja's adversary Shani insists on long-term thinking, and Kuja finds Shani to be extremely oppressive!)
Mangala's logic in war represents the level of understanding of the young adult male. Developmentally, the young adult male is easily convinced of the utility of killing. It may seem, at this stage of brain development, that by killing the adversary, upon whom He has projected His own interior conflict, He will "win" the conflict and move ahead in life.
Modern brain research is beginning to show strong evidence that human physical brain development is not complete until approximately age 30-31. In Jyotisha, the native must complete the second Rahu-Ketu opposition age 27-28 and the first Shani return age 28-31 before entering adulthood. This Jyotisha principle is one of the best reasons for waiting until after age 30-31 to embark on adult marriage. Marriage contracted any earlier than age 30-31 [before end of Saturn return] must be supervised by the parents if it is to succeed.
Blaming
In Karkata, Kuja's main weapon becomes the social-emotional device of "blaming". Blaming is a method of psycho-emotionally projecting responsibility from oneself outward to another person or outside force.
According to my favorite English Etymological Dictionary, www.etymonline.com , the word roots of the modern English word "blame" are:
• Old French. blasmer "to speak evil of," from Late Latin. blasphemare "revile, reproach" (cf. blaspheme).
Think of the children's game "pin the tail on the donkey". Kuja-Karkata will subconsciously project one's unexpressed aggression upon any available emotional target, no matter how ridiculous.
A central emotional behavior of Mangala in Karkata in the nativity will be a tendency to blame others in reactive response to the threat of guilt or shame. Chandra (the mother) is by nature a master of guilt, and Mangala being a lean and mean, self-centered athlete does not wish to be encumbered by guilt imposed by others.
Therefore when guilt, shame, and indeed most varieties of social-emotional bondage threaten Kuja's ability to run, hunt, pursue, and win with optimum speed and agility, Kuja simply projects His social responsibility upon Others.
Others may include outside persons, unnamed social or environmental forces, or even the Divine. Others to Mangala are all approximately equal since they are all adversaries and they are all not-my-body, not-me. Expect to encounter increased Blaming and Blaspheming of family members, neighbors, co-workers, other nationalities ethnicities and tribes, other religions and belief systems, as Mangala endures His unusually long tenure in the hostile rashi of Karkata! Mangala in Karkata indicates "emotional conflict with the brother".

Masculine Mangala ill-disposed in Feminine Karkata
Masculine, direct-action Kuja constrained by feminine, indirect-suggestion Chandra = fundamentally oppressed and uncomfortable.
The rashi of Karkata owned by embracing, soothing, accepting, nurturing, emotionally sensitive Chandra is the worst possible place for Mangala to be. Mangala (Kuja) is direct and offensive; Karkata (like the crab) is indirect and defensive. Kuja rules the instinctive animal behaviors of the human body. Kuja is muscular movement. Kuja is sexual pursuit and conquest, Kuja is running and racing; Kuja is competition and sport. Kuja is narcissistic, competitive, and needs to win; Chandra is parental, collaborative, and needs to stabilize.
When Kuja is forces to endure an extended stay in Karkata, Mangala cannot express His athletic, winning, fighting, pursuing character in a direct and honest fashion. He becomes anxious and "aggressively passive-aggressive". Mangala disturbs the emotional peace when He is in Karkata. Forced into the home-loving and peace-enforcing world of Chandra, Mangala feels like He is standing in deep water. He cannot move effectively. Mangala becomes scheming and manipulative, desperately looking for slower, more covert ways to achieve His goals.

Profile of the Neechcha Kuja
Mangala in Karkata rashi is like an active little boy who wants to climb trees and play "war"; but His over-protective mother (Chandra) keeps Him inside the house, where He gets more and more unhappy and restless. Eventually he becomes disruptive and even abusive. He cannot find a socially approved way to channel his physical energy within the constraints of his mother's house.
Mangala a troublemaker when He is plunged into unsuitable environments and no environment is more hostile to Kuja's direct, assertive, competitive character than Karkata.
Mangala is called "neechcha" (fallen, debilitated) in Karkata rashi because the sign of the Moon is an exclusively emotional, protective, embracing, and parental place. Karkata is the realm of the protective mother, the childhood home, the mother's native culture, one's cultural roots. Karkata is patriotic, defensive, and a guardian of the homeland.
Imagine a crab creating its home from beach debris and then defending its home as best it can. When threatened, the crab walks sideways in a distracting motion; the crab never lunges forward in attack. Yet the crab is determined to protect its home. The crab represents Karkata: need for a home, withdrawal into the safety and protection of home, nurturing and care within the home.
