Transits
primarily involve developments in the life circumstances outside the individual’s
control. It is essential to study the method of daily movement of planets
before going through their effects.
Sun,
Moon, Mercury and Venus are Fast moving while Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, Rahu and
Ketu are Slow moving planets. Their transits can be ascertained by consulting
the almanac (Panchangam) regularly.
Daily movement of
Planets as below:
Sun
|
1 degree
|
Moon
|
13to15degrees
|
Mars
|
30 to 45 minutes
|
Mercury
|

|
Venus

|
Jupiter
|
5 to 15 minutes
|
Saturn
|

At
these speeds, Sun takes 30 days / one month to move from one sign to other;
Moon takes approximately 2 ¼ days to
move from one sign to other; as in case of
Jupiter takes one year; Rahu & Ketu takes 18 months (anti-clockwise)
and Saturn takes 2 ½ years.
