Gochara
A transit (Gochara) is the current movement of the planets through the zodiac. Reading transits against your birth chart shows which houses and planets are being activated now. This page brings together the coming Peyarchi dates, your Sade Sati status and a transit view of your own chart.
Transits are counted from the Moon sign (Chandra Lagna) in the classical Gochara system and, by many astrologers, from the Lagna too. Each planet gives results according to the house it transits, modified by Vedha, another planet transiting a specific house that obstructs the result. Ashtakavarga points refine this further: a planet transiting a sign with many Bindus tends to give better results.
A transit works through the promise of the birth chart and the running Dasha. A strong Jupiter transit gives most when Jupiter's Dasha or a related period is running. That is why two people with the same Moon sign can have very different experiences of the same Peyarchi.
Fast planets, the Moon, Sun, Mercury and Venus, affect days and weeks. Mars affects a month or two. Jupiter, Saturn, Rahu and Ketu shape whole years. Use the Peyarchi list for the slow planets and the Live sky view for today's positions.
Many astrologers look for a double transit: Jupiter and Saturn both aspecting or occupying the same house. Major events such as marriage or a new job often coincide with a double transit on the relevant house, supported by the Dasha.
Each planet's speed changes through the year. When a planet slows down to turn retrograde or direct, it is said to be stationary, and many astrologers consider its effect strongest around those dates. Mercury turns retrograde about three times a year, Venus and Mars less often, and Jupiter and Saturn once a year for several months. The transit timeline marks these stations so you can see when a planet's influence on a house is most concentrated.
The classical Sanskrit term for planetary transits read from the Moon sign.
Classical Gochara uses the Moon sign; many astrologers check both.
An obstruction: a planet in a specific house that cancels or reduces another planet's transit result.
Signs with more Bindus give better results when a planet passes through them.
Jupiter and Saturn influencing the same house at once, often linked with major events.
Because the birth chart and Dasha periods differ.
About a year per sign.
About two and a half years per sign.
Saturn's transit over the 12th, 1st and 2nd signs from the Moon, lasting about seven and a half years.
They show windows of time. Exact timing also depends on the Dasha and the chart.
Yes. Choose any date to see the positions then.
Yes. Transit analysis reads each factor against your chart in detail.
No. The birth chart is fixed for life. Transits are read against it to see which parts of the chart are being activated at a given time.
