Questions people actually ask
What changes for Makar in August 2026?
The Sankranti. The Sun changes sign once a month, and this month it moves into your 8th house — the single largest shift a month can hold for one rashi, because it is the same date for everyone and a different house for each of the twelve.
What is a Chandra return?
The roughly 2¼ days each month when the transiting Moon sits in your own rashi — your 1st house. Classical Gochara counts the Moon favourable there, and the exact window is on this page rather than left to "around the middle of the month".
Are the strong days a guarantee?
No, and any page that says otherwise is selling something. They are the days on which the greatest number of grahas stand in houses classical Gochara calls favourable from your rashi. That is a real, checkable statement about the sky. It is not a statement about your life, which also has a chart, a dasha and a free will in it.
Other readings for this rashi
The other eleven rashis
This is the Makar reading. It is not YOUR reading.
Your own chart has a Lagna, a nakshatra and a running dasha that the other twelfth do not share. Enter your birth details and the same engine reads those instead.
