What is Vedha in Transit?
In Vedic astrology, when a planet is transiting and giving
certain results (good or bad), another planet can block or obstruct
those results.
This obstruction is called Vedha (literally meaning
"blockage" or "obstruction").
Think of it like a traffic signal: even if your car (the
transit planet) is ready to move forward, a red light (the vedha planet) can
stop or slow it down.
Does Vedha Cancel
Good and Bad Effects?
Yes, Vedha acts like a curtain: it can reduce or
block both good and bad results of a transit.
It doesn’t usually reverse the result, but it dampens the
effect — like turning the volume down on a song, whether it’s joyful or
sad.
Examples
Example 1: Good Transit Blocked
Suppose Jupiter is transiting your 2nd house (wealth,
family, speech). Normally, this brings financial growth and harmony.
But if Venus creates a Vedha on this transit, the
good results may not fully manifest.
You might get opportunities for wealth, but expenses or
distractions block the gains.
Family harmony improves, but misunderstandings still pop up.
Example 2: Bad Transit Blocked
Suppose Saturn is transiting your 8th house
(obstacles, delays, health issues). Normally, this brings stress and
challenges.
But if Mercury creates a Vedha, the bad effects are softened.
Delays happen, but communication skills help you manage.
Health issues may arise, but you find timely medical advice.
Example 3: Everyday Analogy
Imagine you’re watching a movie on TV.
If it’s a happy movie (good transit), Vedha is like
someone lowering the brightness — you still enjoy, but less vividly.
If it’s a sad movie (bad transit), Vedha is like
someone muting the sound — you still see the sadness, but it doesn’t overwhelm
you.
Key Takeaway
Vedha doesn’t erase the transit effects, but it curtails
them — whether good or bad.
It’s like a filter: you still experience the transit, but through a layer of
obstruction.
