राहु Transit (Gochar): Now in कुंभ

Rahu (the north lunar node) transits backward through the zodiac, about a year and a half per sign, amplifying and obsessing over the affairs of the sign it occupies. It is associated with ambition, foreign connections, technology and sudden, unconventional turns. Rahu and Ketu always sit exactly opposite each other.
