GOOGLE THE EPHEMERIS FOR THE MONTH YOU WERE BORN.
IN MY CASE OCT. 1965: http://www.signsbystars.com/anual_ephemeris-en-38-1965_10.htm
my natal Jupiter and Saturn were retrograde, but not close to direct
looks like my natal north node was direct though....
"Saturn retrograde in your natal chart can show that you don’t feel like you’re worthy of anything, and that insecurity leads you to act badly. You also keep your fears to yourself, wanting to appear strong, perhaps because someone in authority had too much power over you. You have to be patient and work hard to get what you want, but you may not be willing to dedicate yourself, especially in the areas of life ruled by the houses your Saturn is in and rules. You restrict yourself by being lazy and indulgent, which is the dark side of Jupiter, the planetary opposite of Saturn. With Jupiter retrograde, you can be too pessimistic and lack imagination, the dark side of Saturn. Usually, if you have both Saturn and Jupiter retrograde in your chart, the effects sort of cancel each other out. You generally feel them most when you only have one of these two planets retrograde."
