On June 16, 2001, Guru (the planet Jupiter) moved to the next astrological sign, Mithuna Rashi (Gemini). He will remain in this Rashi for a little over one year until July 5, 2002. This transit of Guru in Mithuna Rashi (Gemini) affects all the areas of life for which Guru is the presiding intelligence (Karaka). These areas include spiritual progress, good fortune, wealth, children, education, knowledge, justice etc. The particular effects of Guru’s transit have to be seen in the context of your individual birth horoscope, especially the distance of the transiting Guru from the fixed position of Chandra (moon). The Chandra Kundali—a part of the birth horoscope based on where the moon is placed—is particularly important for judging the effects of the planetary transits. See the twelve possibilities below.

If you know in which house your moon is positioned, you can see in one of the charts whether the transit will bring you favorable or unfavorable influences and whether or not a Maharishi Yagya performance is recommended. These performances minimize or alleviate negative planetary influences and enhance positive influences.
