Note: As always, this is a very general forecast which ignores many important transits. How these transits will affect you personally can only be seen through your individual birth chart. If you are interested in a personalized reading, please contact Mike at holliday.michael@gmail.com

Rahu – Jupiter conjunct 2^nd house Leo (Guru Chandal Yoga)

Full Moon (ruler of 1^st house) on 24 February 2016 will create a Raja yoga for prosperity due to being conjunct 9^th house ruler Jupiter. Rahu is, of course, creating a Guru Chandal yoga thru his conjunction with Jupiter, this will likely have it’s negative effect on the face you show to the world more so than on the prosperity of 2^nd house. Rahu in the 2^nd house could cause some liquidation of wealth as he likes to be seen as wealthy regardless of what might be in the bank. For Rahu, money in the bank is worthless unless people know about it. Again, this is the face you may be tempted to show to the world while Rahu transits your 2^nd house Leo. Rahu is also lending his intensity to your competition and obstacles so you may find some disruption from these areas. Jupiter is, however, providing a favourable look at 6^th house Sagittarius so you will likely gain some valuable knowledge about dealing with obstacles and perhaps ways to gain prosperity from challenging situations. Jupiter is also offering his benefic look on the 10^th house of occupation which could expand your role in the workplace.

Saturn in 5^th house Scorpio (Mars conjunction) & (8^th house Aquarius)

Saturn, though not a particularly good planet for Cancer ascendant, could provide some research or discovery of some hidden or secret thing as ruler of 8^th house staying in 5^th house. Since Saturn also owns the 7^th house for Cancer ascendants, this could involve some relationship/partnership/contractual matter. The 5^th house also signifies romance which is a short term passionate relationship. Whatever the situation, whatever discoveries are made by Saturn in this condition, it’s sure to cause a great deal of mental tension whether you’re in a committed relationship or not. Saturn’s look at his own 7^th house should, however, provide a commitment to 7^th house matters regardless of the frustration or coldness that arises from Saturn. Mars’ conjunction with Saturn in Scorpio should also bring about positive employment opportunities (perhaps arising out of Saturn’s new discoveries from 8^th house. For Cancer countries this could be a discovery of new oil reserves or some other double edged mineral. Upsets in career or occupation could mean that it’s time to discover your inner warrior as office politics could be very intense while Mars and Saturn share the 5^th house. Saturn’s look at the 11^th house could restrict gains. His look at the 2^nd house will be felt to a greater degree after the Sun takes his look away from his own house in mid-March. Though you can be sure of something special arising from the unpredictable 8^th house in early March as a full solar eclipse will be followed a few days later by a new moon in Aquarius. All nine planets will have some involvement in the 8^th house at this time. Sun, Moon, Mercury, Venus, Ketu will be occupying Saturn’s moolatrikon sign Aquarius while Mars, Jupiter and Rahu will all be looking on. This creates the conditions for a very powerful planetary war in the 8^th house. Unexpected or sudden events are sure to take place around this time.

Ketu in 8^th house Aquarius

Ketu will be restricting foreign travel by 8^th house (representing over seas) residency as well as by his drishti (aspect) on the 12^th house (foreign place). There is likely to be some unusual activity overseas that could limit your movement. Ketu’s involvement suggests you might not be very concerned about these limits as you will be more focused on Rahu’s activity in the 2^nd house of savings. It’s likely your attention will also be focused more on your occupation than on your home life while Rahu and Ketu complete their 18 month transit of Leo & Aquarius. The Sun’s conjunction with Ketu from mid-February to mid March with Mars looking on will create a very explosive situation in the 8^th house, especially, as I mentioned in the previous paragraph, when all the planets align here and the sun becomes eclipsed in early March.

This is a brief summary of the effect of the transiting planet around the time Rahu and Ketu move from Virgo & Pisces to Leo & Aquarius. If you have any questions about the transits or would like a personalized chart reading, please contact Mike at holliday.michael@gmail.com.
