Gochar means transit, the movement of a graha through the signs. Rahu (north node) always sits directly opposite Ketu (south node). They move backward together and change sign as a pair. This shift puts Rahu in Makara (Capricorn) and Ketu in Karka (Cancer).
Which houses matter for my Moon sign?+
Count from your Moon sign (rashi), with your own sign as the 1st house. The house Rahu (north node) enters shows where your hunger grows. The house Ketu (south node) enters shows where you learn to let go. Find your sign above to see both.
Is this transit good or bad for me?+
For most signs it is mixed, with one strength and one growth area. Both nodes give their best in the 3rd, 6th, 10th and 11th houses. In other houses, they ask for care, not fear.
Why do some apps show a different date for this shift?+
There are two ways to track the nodes. The mean node uses their steady average speed, the classical panchang way. This page follows it for the date. The true node adds small wobbles and shifts a little earlier. Our kundali charts and daily readings use the true node.
How long will Rahu (north node) stay in Makara (Capricorn)?+
Rahu (north node) stays in Makara (Capricorn) for about 18 months, with Ketu (south node) facing it from Karka (Cancer). After that, Rahu moves back into Dhanu (Sagittarius) and Ketu into Mithuna (Gemini).
