Venus (Shukra) Rashi Transit 2026
Venus rules love, marriage, comfort, art and luxury. It spends roughly a month in each sign and turns retrograde about every 19 months.
A rashi transit (Gochar) is the moment a graha leaves one zodiac sign and enters the next in the sidereal (Nirayana, Lahiri) system. Transit signs are read against your Moon sign and ascendant to judge the effect of the period. The Venus spends about 4 weeks in each sign. Times below are exact to the minute, calculated with the sidereal Lahiri ayanamsa.

Rows marked Retrograde are crossings made while Venus is moving backward, so it can appear to re-enter the same sign more than once.
Note: positions are calculated with the Lahiri (Chitrapaksha) ayanamsa using the Swiss Ephemeris. Other Panchang sources use slightly different ayanamsa values, so their times can differ from these by a few minutes for the Sun and Moon, and by more for slower planets such as Jupiter and Saturn.
