✦ About this graha ✦
Chandra Gochar — the fastest-moving planet through rashis. Full zodiac in 27.3 days, ~2 days 6 hours per rashi.
Moon is karaka of mind, mother, women. In jyotish, Moon's placement reveals mental nature, mother-bond, emotional peace.
Chandra-bala (= Moon's gochar relative to birth chart) is essential to check before any auspicious activity.
✦ 2026 Rashi Transits ✦
Moon transit is too rapid for an annual table — all 12 rashis each month. For daily Moon position, check the "Chandra Rashi" section on our /panchang page. Tarabala and Chandra-bala checks are essential before any muhurat.
