In astrology, the term transits refers to the ongoing movement of the planets, in contrast to their positions at your birth.Transit refers to any planetary movement in current time. Transits are connected to current reality, and influence collective reality, the world we’re all living in together and on a personal level how transit affects your planet's in your birth chart. Keeping track of transits of planets is fundamental to understanding how the planets affect the world and your daily life. 


The movement of planets around the zodiac differs based on the distance from the Sun and their speed is also different in one sign.  

 Transit or movement of each planet in one sign.

1. Sun: Sun stays in one sign for a month ( 30 days)  and transit (moves) to another sign each month.


2. Moon: Moon reflects the mood and flow of the day. Transit of the Moon is very fast. It takes less than one month. Moon goes through all twelve signs in about 28 days which means it transits approximately 2 1/2 days in each sign. 


3. Mercury: Mercury transits varies because it goes into retrograde motion. Mercury takes around 1 year to travel through all 12 signs. But its stay in a particular sign ranges from 14 to 30 days. 


4. Venus: Venus transits also vary. Venus transits for 23 days or sometimes over 2 months in one sign when it retrogrades. 


5. Mars: Mars transit 2 years through all the signs and stays in a particular sign for about 1.5 months. But sometimes Mars transit can become unusual and it stays for 6 months in one sign.


5. Jupiter: Jupiter takes about 12 years to travel through all 12 signs which means Jupiter transits in one sign for 12 months (1 year).


7. Saturn: Saturn is a very slow moving planet and it takes around 28 or 29 years to travel through all the 12 signs which means Saturn transit in a single sign for 2.5 years.
