There are such things as Cusps of Houses. The cusps of the 1st, 4th, 7th and 10 House are major ones since thery are aspected by planets, thus the planets give a 'tinge' of their own energy.
And as for the houses themselves, when you have, say, the cusp of your 3rd house in 10 deg. Capricorn, with the cusp of your 4th house in 4 deg. Aquarius AND if the planet is in 15 deg. Capricorn it means that you have it in Capricorn in the 3rd House.
Retrogrades happen regularly.
Mercury - thrice a year for about 24 days
Venus - every one and a half a year for 42 days
Mars - every two years for 80 days
Jupiter - anually for 120 days
Saturn - anually for 140 days
Uranus - anually for 155 days
Neptune - annually for 158 days
Pluto - anually for 160 days*
It is advisable to make your chart via
www.astro.com. The 'R' next to the Planet in the sign means that this planet was in retrograde motion. The above mentioned, however, deals with periodical retrogrades, it is different with natal retrogrades. Safe to say, when a planet that is the old ruler of a sign (Mars of Scorpio, Saturn of Aquarius, Jupiter of Pisces) are retrograding the energies are internalised thus they are displayed in the way of the former signs (retrograde Jupiter's energies are displayed like those of Pisces)*

Does this help a bit?

How do you know when a planet is in a certain house? Also when would you be having a retrograde period? I had my chart done by HP Maxine.
