Alangudi, Tamil Nadu: Elaborate preparations are underway at the world-renowned Apadsahayeswarar Temple in Alangudi for the upcoming Guru Peyarchi (Jupiter transit) festival, which falls on May 1st, 2024.
As per the Panchangam, Jupiter will transit into the Taurus zodiac sign during this auspicious occasion. The Apadsahayeswarar Temple, situated near Valangaimaan in Thiruvarur district, holds a special shrine dedicated to Lord Guru Bhagwan. Every year, the Guru Peyarchi festival is celebrated with great fervor at this temple.
Devotees from across Tamil Nadu, in their thousands, throng to Alangudi to seek blessings from Lord Guru Bhagwan. This year's Guru Peyarchi festival promises to be even grander, with the main event scheduled for May 1st.
During the Guru Peyarchi festival, Lord Guru Bhagwan will transition from Aries to Taurus. A grand Maha Deepaaradhana will be performed to mark this momentous occasion. Devotees belonging to the zodiac signs of Taurus, Gemini, Leo, Libra, Sagittarius, Aquarius, and Pisces can perform special pujas and seek remedies during this auspicious time.
A week-long Lalitha Sahasranama Archana will be held from April 26th to 28th and from May 6th to 12th. As a precautionary measure, the temple administration has erected long pandals made of tin sheets to accommodate the anticipated surge of devotees.

In a person's horoscope, the position of the planets determines their future. Among the planets, Jupiter holds a special significance, revered as the Guru on Thursdays. If Guru is weak in a horoscope, it can lead to challenges in one's life. Without the blessings of Guru, nothing can be truly accomplished.
