Jupiter (Guru) moves through three signs in 2027. It steps back into Karkat on 25 January (1:31 am IST), turns margi there on 13 April, enters Simha on 26 June (5:18 am IST) and enters Kanya on 26 November (6:45 pm IST). Karkat is Jupiter's sign of exaltation, so the first half of the year is its strongest. It meets Ketu exactly in Karkat on 1 March and 20 April.

What this transit means
Jupiter is the graha of wisdom, children, teachers, faith and growth. In Karkat it is exalted, at its strongest, and its gifts of support and good judgment flow easily. Ketu sits in Karkat all year, so from 25 January to 26 June the two share a sign, which tradition calls a form of Guru Chandal Yoga. Here it reads as faith that turns inward and wisdom that questions old forms, softened by Jupiter's exaltation.
In Simha, the Sun's sign and a friend's, Jupiter gives confidence, leadership and public generosity. In Kanya, Mercury's sign, it is less at ease: details and analysis take over from broad vision. From each sign, Jupiter aspects the 5th, 7th and 9th signs from itself, spreading its help to three more houses.
Guru Gochar 2027 for all 12 rashis
Read your Moon sign. Jupiter favours the 2nd, 5th, 7th, 9th and 11th houses from the Moon, by the gochar phal rules. Each rashi has three houses this year, one per sign.

Mesh
It depends on the half of the year. Jupiter in your 4th until 26 June is quiet: home matters need attention, and property deals move slowly. From 26 June, Jupiter in your 5th is very good for children, study, love and creative work. Late November moves it to the 6th, where work gets busy.
Vrishabh
Challenging for most of the year, then good. Jupiter in the 3rd and then the 4th gives effort without much reward, and plans with siblings or neighbours need patience. From 26 November Jupiter enters your 5th and the year ends well for study and children.
Mithun
Good in the first half. Jupiter in your 2nd until 26 June brings money, family harmony and good speech, and it is exalted there. After that, Jupiter in your 3rd asks for effort, and by late November it reaches your 4th, a quieter house.
Karkat
It depends on the season. Jupiter exalted on your own Moon sign until 26 June raises your standing but brings more duties and some weight gain. With Ketu in your sign too, faith and doubt may pull at each other. From 26 June, Jupiter in your 2nd is very good for savings and family.
Simha
It depends on where Jupiter sits. Until 26 June it is in your 12th: expenses, travel and spiritual retreats. From 26 June it returns to your sign, which brings attention and responsibility more than gain. From 26 November it enters your 2nd, which is very good for money.
Kanya
Very good in the first half. Jupiter exalted in your 11th until 26 June brings gains, new friends and fulfilled wishes. The second half is costlier: Jupiter in your 12th means spending on travel, family or study. It reaches your own sign on 26 November.
Tula
Good in the second half. Jupiter in your 10th until 26 June brings work changes and heavier duties. From 26 June it moves to your 11th, where income and support from friends grow. Late November brings it to the 12th, a time for spending wisely.
Vrishchik
Very good in the first half. Jupiter exalted in your 9th until 26 June brings luck, teachers and travel for faith or study. The 10th from June asks for effort at work, and late November brings Jupiter to your 11th, a very good house for gains.
Dhanu
Good from June. Jupiter in your 8th until 26 June can bring sudden costs or a family matter that needs care. From 26 June it moves to your 9th, a very good house for fortune, higher study and a father's support. Late November moves it to the 10th.
Makar
Good in the first half. Jupiter exalted in your 7th until 26 June favours marriage, partnerships and contracts. The 8th from June slows money that depends on others. From 26 November Jupiter reaches your 9th, and the year closes well.
Kumbh
Good in the second half. Jupiter in your 6th until 26 June keeps work busy and asks for care with health and debt. From 26 June, Jupiter in your 7th favours marriage and partnerships. Late November brings it to your 8th.
Meen
Very good in the first half. Jupiter exalted in your 5th until 26 June is excellent for children, study, love and new ideas. From June it sits in your 6th, a working house, and from 26 November in your 7th, which is good for partnerships.
Why two people with the same Moon sign get different results
Your natal Jupiter matters most. If it is strong in your chart, in Karkat, Dhanu or Meen, its transits deliver more. If it is weak, such as debilitated in Makar, the same transit gives less. The dasha running in 2027 decides how loudly Jupiter speaks: a Jupiter dasha or antardasha brings these results to the front. Saturn's transit into Mesh from 3 June also shapes the year, especially for Mesh, Vrishabh, Makar and Kanya Moon signs.
What changes next
Jupiter turns retrograde in Kanya on 12 January 2028 and steps back into Simha on 28 February 2028. The full year of sign changes is in Grah Gochar 2027.
