Rahu Transit 2024
What Rahu does through 2024: when it changes sign and nakshatra, when it turns retrograde, and when the Sun burns it. Every date is the real one — a stretch that began before January says so.
Rahu year by year
Rahu stays in Pisces all year
Rahu entered Pisces on 30 Oct 2023 and does not leave until 18 May 2025, so 2024 brings no sign change. What does change is its nakshatra, its direction, and whether it is burnt by the Sun.

Rahu through the nakshatras
The sign is the long chapter. The nakshatra is the shorter passage inside it, and it carries its own ruling planet — which is what changes the flavour of the transit.
| Nakshatra | Ruled by | From | To | Duration | |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Revati | Mercury | 30 Oct 2023 | 8 Jul 2024 | 8.3 mo | |
| Uttara Bhadrapada | Saturn | 8 Jul 2024 | 16 Mar 2025 | 8.3 mo |
A planet re-crosses a nakshatra boundary when it turns retrograde, so the same nakshatra can appear more than once. Those rows are marked as a re-entry.
