About Sun transit (Surya Gochar)
A “transit” is the real-time movement of a planet through the twelve zodiac signs, as opposed to where it sat at your birth. As Sun moves from one sign to the next, it activates a different house of your chart counted from your Moon sign or ascendant, shifting the themes that come to the fore. The dates above are calculated from precise sidereal (Lahiri) positions, so they are accurate to the minute in IST.
To see exactly what this transit means for you, read your Sun in the houses guide, your monthly horoscope, or ask AstroAsk a question about your chart.
Transit times are computed from sidereal planetary positions (Lahiri ayanamsa) and shown in IST. For daily Moon transit and Panchang, see today’s Panchang.
