According to the Vedic calendar, Sarva Pitru Amavasya is being observed today, October 10. This marks the final day of Pitru Paksha, an occasion dedicated to the ritualistic farewell of one's ancestors.

Astrological calculations indicate that a rare and potent planetary alignment is forming on this Sarva Pitru Amavasya, which will influence the various zodiac signs. In this article, we explore these effects based on insights from astrologer Chandresh Sharma of Astropatri.
Astrologer Chandresh Sharma notes that special astronomical and astrological alignments are taking place on this Sarva Pitru Amavasya, which falls on Saturday, October 10, 2026.
**Special Planetary Alignments on Sarva Pitru Amavasya**
**Sun-Moon Conjunction in Virgo:** The Sun and Moon are positioned together in the Virgo sign and Hasta Nakshatra, creating an *Amavasya Yoga* (New Moon alignment).
**Coincidence with Shanishchari Amavasya:** Since the New Moon falls on a Saturday, the significance of seeking Lord Shani's blessings, rectifying one's karma, and performing acts of charity is heightened.
**Ketu in Magha and Exalted Jupiter in Cancer:** As Pitru Paksha concludes, the presence of Ketu in Magha (the *Pitru Nakshatra* or ancestral star) and Jupiter in its sign of exaltation is considered highly auspicious for liberation from ancestral debts (*Pitru Rina*).
**Impact on the 12 Zodiac Signs**
**Aries:** Family disagreements will be resolved; exercise patience.
**Taurus:** Clarity will emerge regarding matters of property and financial security.
**Gemini:** Old grievances will be resolved; maintain control over your speech.
**Cancer:** You will find mental peace; a balance in family responsibilities will be achieved.
