In Vedic astrology, planetary transits (called Gochar in Hindi) are very important. They show how the movement of planets in the sky affects our lives on a daily and yearly basis. Even though your birth chart remains fixed, the changing position of planets keeps creating new effects in your life.
For example, when Saturn (Shani) moves from one zodiac sign to another, it brings big changes in your responsibilities, work, and personal growth. Similarly, Jupiter (Guru) brings opportunities for knowledge, growth, and happiness when it transits a favorable house.
One of the most talked-about transits is Mercury Retrograde, which is believed to bring communication issues, travel delays, and confusion. But not all transits are bad. Many bring good results too. It all depends on which planet is transiting which house of your chart and how it connects with your birth planets.
By tracking these transits, you can prepare yourself for upcoming changes. For example, if Mars is transiting your 10th house (career), you may feel more energetic and competitive at work. If Venus is moving through your 7th house (relationships), love life may become more active.You can follow simple monthly transit calendars online or ask an astrologer to guide you. Remember, planets don’t control you—they guide you. With awareness and wisdom, you can make better choices during any transit
