Gandanta is nothing but a karmic knot that could be unravelled when a planet transits through it. The Gandanta zones always occur between fire and water signs of the zodiac as fire and water cannot coexist.

It is best to keep things simple, especially with relationships. Issues from the past could surface during this time for healing and rejuvenation.

May 20th to May 26th of 2022 Venus will be in Gandanta crossing from the sign of Pisces (Revati Nakshatra) into Aries (Ashwini Nakshatra).
