Rahu-Ketu Peyarchi, or the transit of shadow planets Rahu and Ketu, occurs approximately once every 18 months. In Vedic astrology, these two celestial forces have a powerful karmic influence on our lives. When they change zodiac signs, it can bring sudden transformations in areas like career, health, marriage, foreign travel, and mental stability.
In 2025, Rahu and Ketu are expected to shift signs, creating major astrological changes for all 12 Rasis. Performing pariharams (remedies) and visiting associated Navagraha temples during this period is considered highly beneficial.
