Rahu (Rahu) Transit
Last updated: 12 April 2026 · Source: BPHS, Swiss Ephemeris
Rahu transit brings obsession, ambition, and unconventional opportunities to the sign it occupies. It always transits in reverse zodiacal order (from Pisces toward Aries). Rahu transit through the 3rd, 6th, and 11th from Moon is favourable for material gains. Transit through the 1st, 5th, or 9th can bring confusion and restlessness.

FAQ
Q.Does Rahu always move backward?
Rahu and Ketu are shadow planets (lunar nodes) that always move in retrograde motion through the zodiac. Rahu enters Pisces after Aries, Aquarius after Pisces, and so on. This reverse movement is their natural state, not an anomaly like planetary retrograde.
Q.What happens when Rahu transits my Moon sign?
Rahu over Moon creates mental restlessness, unusual desires, and sometimes anxiety. It amplifies emotions and can bring obsessive thinking. The 18-month period requires extra mental health awareness, meditation, and avoiding intoxicants. On the positive side, it can bring bold new directions and unconventional opportunities.
