✦ About this graha ✦

Surya Gochar — Sun's transit through the rashis. Sankranti (= rashi-change moment) is a festival day. Falls between the 14th-17th of each month.

Sun is the karaka (significator) of soul, father, state, position and fame. In jyotish, Sun's placement reveals ego, leadership, vitality, and father-bond.

Most important Sun-transit: Makar Sankranti (14 January) — Sun enters Uttarayana (northern course). Beginning of all auspicious activities.
