2026 Mesha Rasi
2026 begins for Mesha natives with a mix of powerful movement and karmic
refinement. With Śani continuing his slow march through Mīna (12th bhāva)
the entire year, the backdrop of 2026 carries the flavor of Sade–Sati’s
final phase, bringing deep internal churning, completion of past karmas,
increased spiritual withdrawal, and expenses that demand discipline. While
Śani tests patience and detaches you from unnecessary burdens, Guru,
Maṅgala, and Rāhu–Ketu shape the material outcomes of the year.
Guru is initially in Mithuna (3rd bhāva) till 2 June 2026, a placement that
traditionally gives moderate results, stimulating courage, travel,
communication, and short-term efforts. From 2 June, Guru moves into Karka
(4th), a challenging position that affects sukha, home peace, vehicles, and
inner satisfaction. But from 31 October, Guru’s transition into Siṃha (5th)
opens a highly auspicious window for creativity, children, spiritual
intelligence, and renewed prosperity.
Rāhu–Ketu remain in Kumbha–Siṃha till 25 November, activating powerful
influences on friendships, earnings, gains, and romantic or progeny-related
karma. After 25 November, Rāhu moves to Makara (10th) and Ketu to Karka
(4th), shifting the karmic axis strongly toward career, public role, home,
and emotional stability.
Maṅgala’s detailed movements shape the entire year for Mesha, since he is
the lagneśa and his transits directly affect vitality, courage, land,
siblings, and profession. Mars begins the year in Makara (10th) from 16
January–23 February, giving strong professional drive and leadership. His
subsequent moves through Kumbha, Mīna, Meṣa, Vṛṣabha, Mithuna, Karka, and
Siṃha form a year-long cycle of fluctuating energy, struggle, victories, and
pressure.
JANUARY–FEBRUARY 2026: The Fiery Beginning (16 Jan – 23 Feb)
Maṅgala enters Makara (exalted) on 16 January, and till 23 February, Mesha
Rasi experiences a surge of ambition, career drive, and competitive success.
Śani in the 12th creates mental heaviness, but the strength of Mars brings
breakthroughs, especially if you have been stuck since late 2025.
With Guru in Mithuna, communication-based work, marketing, travel, and
writing flourish. Financial flow is steady, but expenses continue due to
Saturn. Rāhu in Kumbha brings new friendships and gains through networking,
though the presence of Ketu in the 5th demands caution in romance and
decision-making.
FEBRUARY–APRIL 2026: The Aquarius and Pisces Cycle (23 Feb – 2 Apr)
From 23 February–2 April, Maṅgala moves through Kumbha (11th), a highly
auspicious transit for Mesha. Desires manifest quickly, income grows,
support from friends arrives, and long-delayed projects gain momentum. This
is one of the best windows of 2026 for financial growth.
But Budha becomes retrograde from 26 February–20 March, causing
communication delays, contract issues, and misunderstandings. Avoid signing
major agreements during this period.
From 2 April–11 May, Maṅgala enters Mīna (12th), joining Śani’s domain. This
is a spiritually charged but materially challenging phase. Expenses rise
sharply, sleep becomes disturbed, hidden enemies may stir, and energy drops.
Avoid confrontations and unnecessary risks. This is a time to retreat, heal,
and regain inner strength.
MAY–JUNE 2026: A Powerful Rebirth (11 May – 20 Jun)
On 11 May, Maṅgala enters Meṣa (lagna)—a dramatic turning point. Vitality,
courage, self-confidence, and initiative return. This 11 May–20 June period
brings new beginnings, personal transformation, and strong individuality.
But aggression must be controlled, as Mars in the first house magnifies ego
and impatience.
Guru shifts into Karka (4th) on 2 June, creating a mix of opportunities and
challenges. Emotions intensify, property matters surface, and matters
relating to home, family peace, vehicles, and inner stability come into
focus. This is not a favorable transit traditionally; one must guard against
domestic tensions, emotional turbulence, and health issues related to chest
or digestion.
JUNE–AUGUST 2026: Wealth, Family, and Practical Work (20 Jun – 2 Aug)
Maṅgala enters Vṛṣabha (2nd) on 20 June. Financial matters, savings, and
family relationships dominate the mind. Mars here can bring both wealth and
conflict—harsh speech must be controlled. Avoid arguments with family
members.
Budha becomes retrograde again 29 June–23 July, affecting trading,
documents, communication, and short travel. Double-check all paperwork.
From 2 June–30 October, with Guru in the 4th, avoid major property purchases
unless the horoscope is supportive.
AUGUST–SEPTEMBER 2026: Movement, Travel, and Hard Efforts (2 Aug – 18 Sep)
From 2 August–18 September, Maṅgala moves into Mithuna (3rd)—a
result-giving, active placement. Hard work pays off, communications
increase, siblings may need attention, and travel becomes frequent. This is
a strong time for marketing, real estate agents, sales, entrepreneurs,
influencers, media persons, and anyone working through communication.
SEPTEMBER–NOVEMBER 2026: The Emotional Cycle (18 Sep – 12 Nov)
Maṅgala enters Karka (4th) on 18 September, his debilitation sign. This
transit lasts till 12 November and is the most challenging phase of 2026 for
Mesha. Emotional instability rises, domestic discomfort appears, issues
regarding home or vehicles surface, and mental stress increases. Guru is
also in the same bhāva (4th), amplifying emotional churning.
Avoid conflicts at home. Avoid vehicle risks. Rest more. This period
requires calmness.
NOVEMBER–DECEMBER 2026: Clarity Returns (12 Nov – Year End)
Maṅgala enters Siṃha (5th) on 12 November, bringing sharp intelligence,
creativity, passion, and initiative. Guru also moves into Siṃha on 31
October, forming a beneficial combination for children, education,
speculation, creativity, and spiritual intelligence.
Rāhu–Ketu shift on 25 November to Makara–Karka, activating a powerful
professional cycle for the next 18 months. The last month of 2026 shows
rising ambition, new recognitions, and important decisions.

2026 Vrishabha Rasi
For those born under Vṛṣabha Chandra, 2026 becomes a year of powerful karmic
transformation, emotional stabilization, and gradual rise in material
prosperity. With Śani transiting Mīna (11th bhāva) the entire year, a major
dharma-artha phase opens, blessing Taurus natives with improved gains,
supportive friends, and fulfillment of long-pending desires. This is not
only a financially promising year but also a socially rewarding one,
provided you maintain patience and humility.
However, Guru, Rāhu–Ketu, and Maṅgala shape the deeper tides of the year,
each bringing decisive shifts.
Guru begins the year in Mithuna (2nd bhāva) till 2 June, supporting dhana,
speech, family harmony, and confidence. From 2 June to 30 October, Guru
moves to Karka (3rd bhāva)—a courage-promoting but result-light placement.
Beyond 31 October, Guru enters Siṃha (4th bhāva), bringing focus to home,
property, mother, emotional grounding, and education.
Rāhu–Ketu remain in Kumbha–Siṃha till 25 November, affecting career, ego,
domestic matters, and inner emotional states. After 25 November, Rāhu shifts
to Makara (9th) and Ketu to Karka (3rd), launching a dharmic,
fortune-enhancing period.
Maṅgala’s movements inject energy, challenges, and victories throughout the
year. As the lord of 7th and 12th for Vṛṣabha, Mars affects relationships,
partnerships, expenditure, and hidden matters. His transits (with dates)
must be observed carefully: Makara (16 Jan–23 Feb), Kumbha (23 Feb–2 Apr),
Mīna (2 Apr–11 May), Meṣa (11 May–20 Jun), Vṛṣabha (20 Jun–2 Aug), Mithuna
(2 Aug–18 Sep), Karka (18 Sep–12 Nov), and Siṃha (12 Nov onwards).
JANUARY–FEBRUARY 2026: Strong Foundation (16 Jan – 23 Feb)
The year’s first major boost comes through Maṅgala exalted in Makara (9th
bhāva) from 16 January–23 February. This is an exceptionally auspicious
transit for Taurus natives. Divine grace, father’s blessings, fortune, and
philosophical clarity rise. Long-distance travel, temple visits, religious
duties, and higher learning are favored. Many will begin new ventures backed
by luck.
With Guru in your 2nd house during this period, finances stabilize, savings
grow, and family peace becomes stronger. Śani in the 11th ensures supportive
friends, mentors, and colleagues.
This is one of the best periods of the year for Vṛṣabha natives.
FEBRUARY–APRIL 2026: Career Pressure and Social Changes (23 Feb – 2 Apr)
From 23 February–2 April, Maṅgala enters Kumbha (10th bhāva). This
intensifies professional momentum but also brings pressure. You may face
demanding bosses, leadership responsibilities, deadlines, and increased
visibility. This is a period of high activity, and if handled with patience,
leads to professional growth.
Budha becomes retrograde 26 Feb–20 Mar, causing delays in communication,
misunderstandings at work, and contract complications. Avoid major signing
during this window.
Rāhu in the 10th (Kumbha) till November keeps your name, reputation, and
public image active. You may be thrust into new roles, sudden opportunities,
or unexpected responsibilities.
From 2 April–11 May, Maṅgala moves into Mīna (11th bhāva)—a fortunate
transit bringing gains, profits, and fulfillment of ambitions. Combined with
Śani in the same house, this becomes a powerful time for growth through
disciplined networking. Financial planning, investment consolidation, and
long-term goals get activated.
However, since Mars and Saturn conjoin here, avoid impulsive decisions, ego
conflicts with friends, or aggressive team interactions.
MAY–JUNE 2026: Withdraw, Heal, Reflect (11 May – 20 Jun)
Maṅgala enters Meṣa (12th bhāva) from 11 May–20 June. This is a sensitive
phase. Expenditure increases, sleep disturbances may arise, and hidden
enemies or health issues may surface. Avoid reckless spending, unnecessary
travel, and secretive dealings. Focus on meditative and restorative
practices.
Guru moves to Karka (3rd bhāva) on 2 June, encouraging short journeys,
writing, courage, and communication. However, it loses strength here, so do
not expect major financial growth during June–October.
JUNE–AUGUST 2026: Personal Power Returns (20 Jun – 2 Aug)
Maṅgala enters Vṛṣabha itself from 20 June–2 August, giving strength,
confidence, and assertiveness. You become bold, energetic, and physically
active. This period boosts self-esteem but also raises ego and impatience.
Control anger and avoid conflicts.
Budha retrogrades again 29 Jun–23 Jul, so travel and documentation require
caution.
Guru in 3rd may give short-term gains but avoid risky decisions, especially
speculative ones.
AUGUST–SEPTEMBER 2026: Speech, Courage, and Communication (2 Aug – 18 Sep)
From 2 August–18 September, Maṅgala moves into Mithuna (2nd). This is a
mixed phase. Your speech becomes sharp, which can offend others. Family
differences may surface, though financial gains are possible through
assertive action. Avoid borrowing or lending money without clarity.
From mid-August, Rāhu in 10th intensifies ambition and career opportunities.
Ketu in 4th til November creates internal restlessness, demanding better
emotional management.
From 18 September–12 November, Maṅgala enters Karka (3rd), his debilitation
sign. This reduces courage, increases emotional sensitivity, and creates
internal frustration. Avoid unnecessary confrontations with siblings or
co-workers.
Guru is also weak in Karka during this period, making the emotional
environment more intense. Focus on self-care and communication discipline.
NOVEMBER–DECEMBER 2026: Rising Prosperity (After 31 Oct & 25 Nov)
Two powerful shifts transform the final part of the year:
Guru enters Siṃha (4th bhāva) on 31 October
This brings new beginnings in home, property, education, and emotional
wellbeing. Many will purchase property, enhance domestic comfort, or
reconnect with family.
Rāhu–Ketu shift on 25 November
Rāhu moves to Makara (9th) – extraordinary luck
Ketu moves to Karka (3rd) – courage, spiritual communication
This is one of the best Rāhu placements for Taurus.
Maṅgala enters Siṃha (4th) on 12 November
Energy rises, passion increases, and leadership qualities strengthen.
Guru-Mars combination favors home improvements, real estate moves, creative
projects, and children-related progress.
The year ends on a victorious note, full of inspiration and new beginnings.

2026 Mithuna Rasi
2026 unfolds for Mithuna natives as a year of internal strengthening,
disciplined growth, subtle emotional correction, and major karmic
restructuring—particularly through Guru and Rāhu–Ketu. With Śani transiting
Mīna (10th bhāva) throughout the year, your professional life,
responsibilities, leadership roles, and public reputation remain in constant
focus. Saturn’s tenth-house presence demands hard work, discipline, graceful
acceptance of duties, and patience in the face of slow-moving results. Yet,
this pressure ultimately shapes a profound rise.
Guru remains in Mithuna (1st) till 2 June, in Karka (2nd) from 2 June–31
October, and in Siṃha (3rd) thereafter. This movement shifts your mental
space, finances, and courage step-by-step. Rāhu–Ketu remain in Kumbha–Siṃha
till 25 November, then move to Makara–Karka, altering your destiny path in a
deep way.
Maṅgala’s transits are decisive—Makara (16 Jan–23 Feb), Kumbha (23 Feb–2
Apr), Mīna (2 Apr–11 May), Meṣa (11 May–20 Jun), Vṛṣabha (20 Jun–2 Aug),
Mithuna (2 Aug–18 Sep), Karka (18 Sep–12 Nov), and Siṃha (12 Nov onwards).
For Mithuna, Mars rules the 6th and 11th, thus influencing debts, enemies,
health, service, and gains.
JAN–FEB 2026: Duty, Discipline, and Leadership (16 Jan–23 Feb)
Maṅgala exalted in Makara (8th) from 16 January–23 February brings intense
transformation. Hidden matters surface, deep fears release, and you may deal
with inheritance, insurance, loans, or medical matters. Saturn in 10th keeps
workload high.
Guru in lagna till June expands learning, travel, and personal clarity.
This period needs careful handling of health, anxiety, and joint finances.
FEB–APR 2026: Fortune Expands (23 Feb–2 Apr)
From 23 February–2 April, Mars moves into Kumbha (9th)—one of the luckiest
periods of the year. Fortune rises, father’s health improves, long-distance
travel begins, and confidence grows. This is a good time for examinations,
spiritual practices, or launching a new long-term project.
Budha retrograde (26 Feb–20 Mar) may cause paperwork delays, but outcomes
remain generally positive.
APR–MAY 2026: Professional Demands (2 Apr–11 May)
Maṅgala enters Mīna (10th) on 2 April, where he joins Śani. This combination
creates massive pressure at work—deadlines tighten, responsibilities
increase, and authority figures demand excellence. You may feel you must
prove yourself repeatedly.
Guru still in 1st ensures you don’t break. Your intelligence supports you.
MAY–JUNE 2026: Expenditure and Exhaustion (11 May–20 Jun)
From 11 May–20 June, Maṅgala in Meṣa (11th) is excellent. Gains increase,
networking expands, and desires manifest quickly.
But Guru moves into 2nd (Karka) on 2 June, strengthening finances, family
unity, speech, and confidence. This is one of the most stable periods of the
year for money.
JUNE–AUGUST 2026: Self-Development (20 Jun–2 Aug)
Maṅgala enters Vṛṣabha (12th) on 20 June, raising expenses and reducing
physical vitality. Travel may increase.
Budha retrograde from 29 Jun–23 Jul requires financial caution.
Guru in the 2nd protects savings despite expenses.
AUG–SEPT 2026: Personal Power (2 Aug–18 Sep)
From 2 August–18 September, Maṅgala enters Mithuna (lagna)—a highly
energetic but aggressive period. Your decisions become bold, but temper
becomes sharp. Health needs care.
Rāhu in the 9th brings philosophical restlessness; Ketu in 3rd makes
communication selective.
Maṅgala debilitation in Karka (2nd) brings harsh speech, family disputes,
and food-related health issues. Guru also in 2nd moderates the worst effects
but drain emotional energy.
Avoid arguments, especially with family.
NOV–DEC 2026: Growth Returns
Guru moves to Siṃha (3rd) on 31 October—excellent for courage, writing,
marketing, and creative expression.
Rāhu–Ketu shift on 25 November to Makara–Karka, opening a new cycle of
transformation around shared resources, courage, intelligence, and
partnerships.
Mars entering Siṃha (3rd) on 12 November restores energy and decision-making
strength.

For Rāhu: Bhairava worship

2026 Karka Rasi
2026 is a profoundly transformative year for Cancer natives. With Śani
moving through Mīna (9th bhāva) all year, fortune, father’s health, dharma,
and long-distance endeavors undergo karmic refinement. Saturn here creates a
test of faith—your belief system matures, responsibilities multiply, and
deep spiritual introspection arises.
Guru begins in Mithuna (12th) until 2 June, moves into Karka (lagna) from 2
June–31 October, and then into Siṃha (2nd) for the rest of the year. This
movement brings inward cleansing, personal rebirth, and finally financial
stabilization.
Rāhu–Ketu remain in Kumbha–Siṃha till 25 November, then shift to
Makara–Karka, bringing karmic waves in relationships, home, family, and
authority structures.

creativity, and career.
JAN–FEB 2026: Professional Rise (16 Jan–23 Feb)

partnerships but creates tension in marriage. Career partnerships thrive,
but personal relationships need patience.

growth.
Śani in 9th demands humility, devotion, and faith.
FEB–APR 2026: Fortune Strengthens (23 Feb–2 Apr)
Mars moves into Kumbha (8th) from 23 February–2 April—a period of
transformation. Intuition deepens, secrets surface, and you may face sudden
events. Avoid unnecessary risks.
Budha retrograde from 26 Feb–20 Mar complicates communication.
Rāhu in 8th activates occult interests, research, and deep psychological
churn.
APR–MAY 2026: Professional Intensity (2 Apr–11 May)
Maṅgala enters Mīna (9th) on 2 April, combining with Saturn. This creates a

long-distance institutions. Avoid ego clashes with teachers or elders.
However, this strengthens discipline and spiritual clarity.

leadership roles, promotions, and opportunities arise.

sleep disturbance, and emotional vulnerability. Avoid overthinking and
unnecessary travel.
Mars in Karka (lagna) from 18 September–12 November causes irritability,
inflammation, emotional turbulence, and health sensitivity. Control temper
and avoid ego-driven decisions.
But Guru’s presence reduces the worst effects.

harmony, and speech.

2026 Siṁha Rasi
For Siṁha natives, 2026 becomes a year of profound inner restructuring,
major financial and spiritual rebalancing, and finally, by the last quarter,
a period of rising power, visibility, and success. With Śani in Mīna (8th)
for the entire year, this is a deep karmic-churning period—also known as
Ashtama Śani, a placement known for inner purification, dealing with hidden
fears, confronting debts, transforming attachments, and maturing into a
wiser self.
Guru moves through Mithuna (11th) till 2 June, Karka (12th) till 31 October,
and finally enters Siṁha (lagna) from 31 October onward.

fulfillment of desires.
Śani in the 8th requires caution with health, mental peace, and stress.
Rāhu in 7th till November emphasizes partnerships—both blessings and karmic
challenges.

JUNE–AUGUST 2026: Gains and New Associations (20 Jun–2 Aug)
Maṅgala enters Vṛṣabha (10th) from 20 June–2 August, boosting career

AUG–SEPT 2026: Health and Internal Healing (2 Aug–18 Sep)

Maṅgala debilitated in Karka (12th) from 18 September–12 November drains
