Gochar 2027: planetary transit calendar

What each transit means

Jupiter: Jupiter spends about a year in a sign; its ingress shifts where growth, faith and counsel flow for every rashi.

Saturn: Saturn spends about two and a half years in a sign; its ingress moves Sade Sati and Dhaiya for the affected rashis.

Rahu: Rahu takes about eighteen months per sign, always moving in reverse through the zodiac.

Ketu: Ketu mirrors Rahu exactly 180 degrees away, so the two always change sign together.

The Sun, Moon and inner planets change signs far more often, but readings are built on the slow movers above, because a transit that lasts months to years sets the backdrop the fast transits play against.

Frequently asked

When does Jupiter change sign in 2027?

In 2027, Jupiter's sign changes are listed in the calendar above with the exact computed instant in IST. Jupiter spends roughly a year in each sign.

Why do these dates differ from some panchang sites?

Two honest reasons: the ayanamsa (we use Lahiri, the Indian government standard) and rounding. We publish the bisected crossing instant from the Swiss Ephemeris rather than a whole-day approximation, and note retrograde re-entries separately instead of merging them.

What does a sign change actually mean for my rashi?

A slow planet entering a new sign changes which house it occupies counted from your Moon sign — that house, not the sign change itself, is what a reading interprets. Check your rashi’s daily and monthly horoscope, or generate a free kundali for the full picture.
