Planetary Conjunctions 2026 When Planets Meet — Dates, Effects & Predictions

Understanding Graha Yuti (ग्रह युति)

A planetary conjunction (Graha Yuti in Sanskrit) occurs when two or more planets occupy the same zodiac sign at the same time. In Vedic astrology, this is considered highly significant as the combined planetary energies create unique effects that neither planet would produce alone. The closer the planets are in degrees, the stronger the conjunction's effects.

Famous Yoga Formations

Many conjunctions create powerful Yogas with specific effects:

• Gaj Kesari Yoga — Jupiter-Moon conjunction brings wisdom, fame & fortune
• Budhaditya Yoga — Sun-Mercury conjunction enhances intelligence & communication
• Guru Chandal Yoga — Jupiter-Rahu conjunction creates unconventional thinking
• Angarak Yoga — Mars-Rahu conjunction intensifies aggression & courage
• Vish Yoga — Saturn-Moon conjunction affects mental peace & emotions
• Chandra Mangal Yoga — Moon-Mars conjunction brings wealth potential

Conjunction vs Aspect (Yuti vs Drishti)

Conjunction (Yuti) means planets are in the same sign — they physically "meet" during transit. Aspect (Drishti) means planets "look at" each other from different signs. Conjunctions generally have stronger and more direct effects since the planetary energies blend together in the same space.

How to Use This Information

Track upcoming conjunctions to understand when certain planetary energies combine. If a conjunction involves your chart's key planets (Lagna lord, Moon sign lord), the effects will be more personal. Use conjunction dates to plan important activities, or to prepare for challenging periods when malefic planets combine.
