Peyarchi
Peyarchi (பெயர்ச்சி) means "transit" or "movement" in Tamil — the moment a slow-moving planet crosses from one Rashi to the next. These transitions reshape individual destinies and world events alike.
Explore 200 years of computed transit data (1900–2100) for Saturn, Jupiter, and Rahu–Ketu, with precise sidereal dates using the Lahiri Ayanamsha.
Sani Peyarchi
~2.5 years per sign
Saturn's transit through a sign lasts roughly 2.5 years, making it one of the most impactful planetary movements. Sani Peyarchi shapes societal structures, tests endurance, and delivers karmic results.
Guru Peyarchi
~1 year per sign
Jupiter changes sign approximately every 12 months, bringing expansion, wisdom, and fortune to the rashi it enters. Guru Peyarchi is eagerly awaited for its protective and growth-oriented influence.
Rahu–Ketu Peyarchi
~18 months per sign
The shadow planets Rahu and Ketu always move in retrograde, changing signs every 18 months. Their transits bring intense karmic events, obsessions, and spiritual turning points.
What makes Peyarchi significant?
Individual Impact
When Saturn, Jupiter, or Rahu-Ketu change signs, they shift their gaze across your birth chart's houses. A planet entering your lagna (ascendant) sign produces very different results than one entering the 6th or 8th house.
Sani Peyarchi is especially monitored because Saturn's 2.5-year stay includes the dreaded Sade Sati — the 7.5-year Saturn transit over the natal Moon.
Historical & World Impact
Major world events — economic upheavals, political changes, pandemics, and social movements — often coincide with Saturn and Jupiter sign changes. Mundane astrology tracks these correlations across centuries.
