Malavya Yoga in Annual Transits, 2024

One of the common questions asked is if the Yogas forming during transit can have same impact on native as they have in birth chart?

As I see, we are about to go through a month which can give us an answer to this question. On 31st March, 2024, Venus is entering in Pisces and it will stay there till 24th April, 2024. This will create Malavya Yoga, which is considered as one of the most important yogas; i.e. Panch Mahapurush Yoga.

So, let’s understand it if this Malavya Yoga in the month of April, 2024 can give us as great a result as it promises to give in birth chart of person. Let’s cover this article on following points –

Formation of Malavya Yoga – Malavya Yoga is one of the Panch Mahapurush Yogas which is formed when Venus is in Own or MooL Trikon or Exaltation Sign in Kendra Houses. The childish and immature understanding of this Yoga is that this person won’t have any problem in life and life will be a joyful ride.

Golden Rule of Prediction – Before we go into interpretations of Malavya Yoga in Transits, we should not forget the golden rule of predictions; i.e. Chart + Dasha + Transit = Event. So, before interpreting transit and predicting any event, we should be aware of our respective birth charts and dashas. If person is also under dasha of the planets involved here then we can expect more apparent results for them in transits.

Normally, if a Stellium transits in one sign then Dasha becomes immaterial and we get the results of transit regardless of Dashas but here, the transit itself is only 24 days and within these 24 days too, Sun and Mercury are going to be in different signs other than Pisces.

So here, we have to follow the Golden Rule of Chart + Dasha + Transit = Event.

Malavya Yoga in Transit – Now, as Venus is coming into Pisces sign, it will create Malavya Yoga for about 24 days for all dual sign ascendants; i.e. Gemini,  Virgo, Sagittarius and Pisces ascendants. 

Other Energies Involved – Now, first important thing is that Venus won’t be alone in Pisces during this transit.

• It will be conjunct by Rahu throughout 24 days.
• Sun will also be in Pisces till 14th April, 2024.
• Mercury will enter Pisces in its retrograde movement on 9th April, 2024.

So, we can see that it will not be pure Venus in Pisces energy during this transit and other planets will impact this Malavya Yoga in one way or the other.

Birth Chart Yoga Vs Transit Chart Yoga – Now, coming back to the main question; i.e. whether the yogas in transit can have similar impact on human life as they have in birth chart?

Yes, they can. If proper yoga is forming as per definition of Yoga then it can have a similar impact in transit as well as birth chart, but the only change will be the duration of impact.

Birth Chart is applicable for whole of life. So, any yoga in Birth Chart can bring the results throughout life and results can be very apparent during the dasha of planets which are forming Yoga.

But when it comes to Yogas being formed during annual transits then the impact of that Yoga will remain as long as that transit remains, which is forming the yoga. Once the transit is over, the impact of Yoga will also be over.

Needless to say that if Native is also under the Dasha of those transiting planets which are forming Yoga then results will be seen very clearly, right over face.

So, Birth Chart Yogas are for whole life whereas Transit Chart Yogas are for the precise duration of that particular transit.

Also, as I said, for the results to come to fore, it is important that a proper Yoga under its definition is formed. Here, with Malavya Yoga getting formed with Venus in Pisces transit, Rahu-Sun-Mercury are also impacting it. Hence, Rahu-Sun-Mercury will bring their flavor to this Yoga.

Similar Yogas in recent time – Also, it is usual to see these Yogas getting formed in transits. For example, during the year 2023, we have seen the impact of Guru Chandal Yoga; Rahu-Jupiter conjunction in Aries, on human life. Those people under Rahu or Jupiter or Mars dasha (lord of Aries) got the most of the results during 2023.

End Result of Venus in Pisces transit – Now, what we can expect from this transit? Let’s see –

• Venus is exalted in Pisces. For financial matters, it can be a good transit, especially if someone is in business setup. For creative and spiritual pursuits too, this transit can bring beneficial results. People can be involved in creative, imaginative and spiritual works.
• But as relationship matters are always challenging, Venus in Pisces has its own challenges despite getting exalted here. People can have a dreamy or utopian idea about their relation. They may live in this imagination that their relationship life is going great whereas it may not be. Or even if they are aware that they are in a messed-up situation in relation, Venus in Pisces transit can give this illusion or imagination that things will be great in future.
• Rahu explodes or blows things out of proportion. They say that Rahu-Ketu work best when they are with exalted or own sign planets. With Rahu, we can easily understand so because as Rahu expands, it expands the exalted or own sign planet results here. So, Rahu with Venus in Pisces will enhance the results of Venus in Pisces as discussed above. It means that in finance, creative and imaginative works Rahu will further enhance the good results of Venus in Pisces transit but when it comes to relationship matters, Rahu can further enhance the dreaminess/utopia/imaginative approach in relationship. So, Rahu’s association is only going to enhance things, either positive or negative.
• Sun represents Ego and Sun with Venus-Rahu in Solar Eclipse Month can clearly show an ego conflict taking place. So, people can have ego conflicts in relationship or with authority figures in professional life. At the same time, as Sun, Venus and Pisces all represent creativity, this conjunction can help in creative matters.
• Mercury will go retrograde in Pisces and join Sun-Rahu-Venus. This will create another yoga named Neech Bhang Raaj Yoga as debilitated Mercury will get some support from exalted Venus. But just like many other yogas, this yoga also helps only in professional life rather than personal life. This means that Mercury in Pisces transit can be helpful for business, skills, interests and creative matters but it may not help that much in relationship matters and health issues. Also, Mercury represents intellect and decision making skills. Mercury in Pisces or in any water signs shows that person takes decisions on emotional grounds or intellect gets overpowered by emotions of situation, rather than deciding on logical/practical grounds.
• So, these 4 planets together in Pisces can be good for finance, creativity, skills, spirituality and business matters but when it comes to personal life and relationships, person can be under a certain imagination or Utopia.
• Now, Gemini ascendant will feel these results in Career matters (10th house), Virgo ascendant will feel these results in Relationship/Business matters (7th house), Sagittarius ascendant will feel these results in Home matters (4th house) and Pisces ascendant will feel these results in Self and Life Path related matters (1st house).
• Last but not the least, Pisces lord Jupiter will still be in friendly sign Aries for one more month which indicates that energy can be easily redirected in positive pursuits and this transit can be utilized for benefits.

Conclusion – So, this is how I would interpret any yoga taking place during annual transit.
