What is Transit in Vedic Astrology?
Transits are, in effect, aspects between a planet’s current position up above and its position in your birth chart. The positions of the planets at the moment you were born are captured on your birth chart. As you took your first breath, the planets continued on their tracks. As the planets continue moving, every once in a while, they come into aspect with the planetary positions on your birth chart.
As its name implies, astrological transits involve a method of interpreting the ongoing movement of the planets as they transit the horoscope. This is most often done for the birth or Natal Chart of a particular individual. Particular attention is paid to changes of sign or house, and to the aspects or angles, the transiting planets make with the natal chart.
