Slow moving karmic planets Rahu and Saturn will be transiting same constellation (Poorvabhadra Nakshatra) in Aquarius and Pisces signs between 27 February – 02 December 2025.
Rahu, the north node of Moon will be entering Poorvabhadra nakshatra 4th quarter in Pisces (Meena) on 27 February 2025 at 02:45 IST.
Saturn, which is already in same constellation, but in Aquarius (Kumbha) will get closer to Rahu as days progress.
21st April 2025 is when Rahu Saturn conjunction 2025 will be at peak as they cross each other at exact same degree in Meena Rasi.
Though Saturn enters Uttarabhadra nakshatra on 27 April 2025, it still remains in conjunction with Rahu as it gets into retrograde motion and re-enters Poorvabhadra nakshatra on 5th October and they both continue in same constellation till 2nd December 2025.
Later, Rahu enters its own nakshatra Satabhisha and Saturn goes into direct motion, which separates them.
Last time, Rahu Saturn conjunction happened was in Swati Nakshatra, Thula Rasi (Libra) during July-November 2013.
Saturn conjunct Rahu is Shaapit or Cursed Yoga.
If Rahu is in the aspect of Saturn (3rd, 7th and 10th houses from Saturn’s position) then cursed yoga gets activated.
2023 was one such year when Rahu conjunct Jupiter in Aries (Mesha) was in aspect of Saturn in Aquarius (Kumbha).
In that year, people born with Shaapit Yoga and with Aries, Cancer, Leo, Libra, Scorpio, Capricorn, Aquarius and Pisces moon signs or Ascendants have faced financial crunch, troubles from enemies, resistance and opposition at work and home.
In 2025, same signs along with Sagittarius will face challenges.
The nodes (Rahu and Ketu) are like chameleon and take on the qualities of planet they are closest to in proximity.
Rahu acts similar to Saturn and this conjunction increases its effects in Pisces and Aquarius.
Saturn is a planet of hard work, discipline, routine, asceticism, old age, the cycles and rhythms of life.
Obey Saturn’s disciplined guidelines, and you will be in alignment, but if you disobey the Laws of Nature and he will make your life miserable.
Saturn in his own sign Aquarius until 29 March 2025 is powerful and expects us to follow moral values and be kind hearted towards other living beings.
Few astrologers call this as Yukta Yoga, which is wrong !!
Yukta Yoga can be conjunction of any 2 planets in one sign and this happens every month with Sun, Mercury, Venus, Moon.
This is infact Pisacha Yoga, which unleashes demonic forces on those effected.
Curses from past life will come back to haunt you and there will be NO escape !
Aquarius being the 11th house in zodiac and Pisces being the 12th, this cursed yoga starts by trusting wrong persons in an attempt to fulfill your dreams and end up losing everything.
Rahu shows insatiable worldly appetite, desires and attitudes and though it tries to deliver results like saturn, it gives them swiftly unlike saturn.
It can bring sudden changes, shocks, upheavals, even quick boons. These two planets together in same sign and more in same nakshatra indicate storm energy.
The rule with Rahu is, what he gives, he will take away. Unless you change or transform what he gives you in some way, it won’t last. While, Saturn makes sure that you work hard towards the result and it stays for a long time.
Rahu Saturn conjunction 2025 is happening in Jupiter owned poorvabhadra nakshatra and continues in Jupiter owned Pisces.
This will hit people, businesses and countries financially. Most effected countries are UK, Pakistan, Canada, Sri Lanka, Bangladesh, Zimbabwe and few African countries.
More and more people will be inclined towards spirituality and ancient methods.
Climate will remain uncertain as early summer cuts down winter and spring.
2025 Summer will be a mix of extreme heat and sudden rains.
Saturn causes rainfall, while Rahu adds force, making it into cyclones, floods and tsunamis.
Many elder politicians and celebrities will perish.
Most effected people at personal level by this conjunction will be those who are having Shapit (Cursed) Yoga in their horoscopes.
Shapit Yoga is most of the times hereditary and one can consider themselves lucky if they don’t have, despite parents suffering from it.
If one notices such combination in their chart, it is advisable to avoid all major financial transactions, start of new ventures, purchase of new or old vehicles, travel to long distances, litigations, legal issues etc during this period of rahu-saturn conjunction in same nakshatra.
People will develop conservative approach towards lifestyle, religion.
If you are born with Rahu in Pisces or Aquarius, then this transit will cause anxiety, depression, insomnia due to financial and emotional reasons.
Usually when two siblings go through either saturn or rahu mahadasa and such conjunct periods occur, death of one elder person in family takes place.
So, it is important to take proper healthcare of older people.
Jupiter has no aspect on this conjunction, so negative effects cannot be controlled, unlike in 2013.
Retrograde Mars in Gemini and later direct in Cancer, Leo, Virgo, Scorpio and Sagittarius aspecting this rahu conjunct saturn 2025 causes accidents and injuries.
In general, this period will be challenging for people born with moon in Revathi, Uttara Phalguni, Visakha, Punarvasu, Poorvabhadra, Uttarabhadra, Aswini, Hasta, Anuradha, Dhanishta, Satabhisha nakshatras.
