Sun is entering Capricorn sign on 14th January 2022 at 2:03 PM and will remain there till 13th February 2022. Sun represents father, authority, fame, reputation, success and heart. Apart from this, for an individual Sun will give the result of the house it occupies in one’s natal chart. As stated in earlier articles, Sun’s transit is always important as it sets the timeline for the events destined and triggered by Jupiter & Saturn transit. Present Capricorn transit is of significance because the Sun is entering into His son’s house when His son (Saturn) is already present there. This happens for 2 consecutive years after each cycle of Saturn, that is 29 years.
The Sun’s transit to Capricorn is also important because the Sun is passing through the zenith of the natural zodiac. It means that the aspiration level of people in general will remain on the higher side and people would feel more energetic and enthusiastic. If one can put discipline in work, they can achieve great success. For people engaged in government activities, politics or head of institutions the coming month will be very hectic and full of opposition. They would need extra efforts to overcome the enemies. They will face opposition from their own people or subordinates as Sun-Saturn are inimical to each other.
Due to the enmity of Sun-Saturn, the work environment will not be very smooth. In all endeavors, extra effort is required. Any work delayed or left on chance will not yield fruitful results or will be the cause of failure. It is important to note here that the Sun-Saturn conjunction is the combination of the 5th and 10th/11th lords of the natural zodiac; so it also has the capabilities of giving good results in terms of materialistic things and new endeavors.
Since the Sun-Saturn conjunction in Saturn’s sign occurs after a gap of so many years, it has the capability to give enduring results and significant changes. It is certain that the authority or authorities’ way of commanding would change; they are no longer going to be authoritative. They would have to mend their ways to adjust to their subordinates and adversaries. Head of the institutions or government authorities would appear not to be so commanding.
Sun-Saturn conjunction results will vary as per the ascending sign of the country, institution or the people. For Aries, Taurus, Scorpio, Pisces results would be more favorable. For Gemini, Leo and Capricorn results would not be that good; they might feel more opposition, delay and frustration in work. On the mundane plain, many authorities and important personalities will lose their impact and influence governed by these signs.
One additional point to note is that, at present Rahu is transiting through Taurus sign which is trine to Capricorn, so, Rahu’s impact on Sun-Saturn conjunction will also be seen. It means that the top authority will have to face threats from secret and close enemies, rumors, deception and delusion. They must guard against these possibilities. It is also applicable for people on an individual plain. One silver lining is that the Sun-Saturn conjunction is followed by Jupiter, so any untowards event will not last long.

Individual Transit Impact by Signs
Sun-Rahu conjunction in navansh is particularly important for the changes in weather. As Mars is transiting behind the Sun, cold waves and chances of snowfall will increase. Sun-Saturn conjunction in Cancer would also indicate changes at a higher level in various institutions and governments.
On an individual level, the effect of transit of any planet is analyzed with reference to one’s Lagna/ Moon sign, birth nakshatra, and other planets cumulative influence.
Generally Sun gives good results while transiting through 3rd, 6th, 10th and 11th houses from Lagna/Moon sign. In other places, the Sun is not supposed to give good results. But these results are further modified by other planets’ transits position (Vedh/Vipreet Vedh), Moon’s sign placement at the time of Sun transit (Moorthy Nirnay), and Sun’s transit through nakshatra with reference to one’s Janma nakshatra (Tara Chakra). After all these modifications the final transit effect is known.
At the time of Sun’s entry to Sagittarius sign, Moon will be present in Bharani nakshatra, Aries sign. Moon’s placement helps us with Moorthy Nirnaya for various signs. Below table provides Moorty and transiting house information for 12 signs:
