Upcoming transits of Jupiter, Rahu and Ketu:
Jupiter:
Jupiter is the planet of wisdom, knowledge, and expansion. It takes approximately one year for Jupiter to move from one rasi (zodiac sign) to another, and about 12 years to complete its transit through all the rasis. This year, Jupiter is transiting through two rasis within a single year—an event that is considered extremely rare and occurs only after several years. Over the next year, Jupiter will transit through Mithuna rasi (Gemini) and Karkataka rasi (Cancer).
This type of transit is known as an “Atichari” transit, meaning a fast-moving or accelerated phase. Such rapid movement of Jupiter is expected to bring significant turbulence.
