Guna: Rajasic Element: Air Dosha: Pitta Sex/Gender: Female Downward Facing Direction: East Colour: Black Animal: Male Monkey

Sage Pulaha:

Married Daksha’s daughter Kshama and had three sons; Kardama, Kanakapeetha, Urvarivat; and a daughter Peevari. He had three more sons with his granddaughter, Gati: Karmasreshtta, Vareeyamsu, Sahishnu. He helped create the wildlife as well as many of the mythical beasts, including butterflies, lion, wolves and lambs. Since his children were so poorly behaved, he adopted Agastya’s son, Drdhasyu. He practiced intense devotion to Lord Shiva on the banks of the Alaknanda river (the source of the Ganges). He was involved with talking Sage Parashara out of killing all the Rakshasas. When King Bharata renounced his kingdom he went to Sage Pulaha’s ashram for refuge. He had knowledge of theatre and drama.

It’s said that one of his sons, Kardama, was granted two boons by Lord Vishnu: The first was that he got a good wife, and he soon married Devahuti. The second was to have a son who is an incarnation of Lord Vishnu, and Sage Kapila was soon born. His nine daughters all married great sages: Anasuya (wife of sage Atri), Arundhat (wife of sage Vasistha) & Khyati (wife of sage Bhrigu), Gati (2nd wife of sage Pulaha, according to Bhagavata Purana). After their householder duties were complete, Devahuti went to study with her son, Sage Kapila, from whom she learned Sankhya philosophy. Kapila is identified with Agni and is known to have reduced sixty thousand sons of King Sagara to ash with a glance. Kapila is usually shown with jatamukha (a crown of dreadlocks), a beard, and four arms (two in yoga holding a pitcher, one holding a shakha and another with a chakra). According to Siva Purana, a Sage named Kardama was born from Brahma’s shadow to be an aspirant, but this may be a different Karadama. The word, ‘kardama’ means: mud, muck, dirty, and is sometimes used to refer to sin. Adi Parva describes him as a virtuous serpent and the grandson of Viraja. It’s said that kardama was so pleased with his wife that he gave her an airplane with which they travelled the world.

His adopted son, Drdhasyu, was a master of scripture from birth as he memorised them from his mothers womb. He learned stick combat and martial arts from Lord Murgan, and he was also known as Idhmavaha for his ability to carry huge loads of wood from the forest. ‘Idhma’ refers to tinder that is ready to be burned (the perfect student).

Brahmin: Priestly educated caste. Planets in these nakshatras will seek to follow dharma, philosophy, and a humanistic path. They seek to expand themselves.

Moksha: The goal here is to accept and let go, to release, liberate oneself and others. Expenditure, loss, release are the themes of this nakshatra. One usually seeks to go beneath the surface. Expect planets in moksha nakshatra’s to support all kinds of loss, liberation and freedom.

Krura/Ugra – Fierce/Severe:  A provocative placement for starting fights, arguments, litigation, quitting your job, bringing an end to things or taking care of things once and for all. Serving justice or carrying out a crime, killing things, cheating, poisoning, surgery, buying or using guns and other weapons, destroying your enemies or obstacles in a harsh way. It’s good for harvesting, tearing down the old, clearing land for development, activities that once done cannot be undone. It can be great for cutting off toxic relationships, giving up bad habits, starting a tough detox, or going into rehab, completing some act of penance like self-flagellation. Magha, P. Phalguni, P. Ashadha, P. Bhadra are the other fierce Nakshatras. Tuesdays carry this energy which is why they say not to initiate travel on this day.

Rajasic: function through the mind, emotions, intellect in a spiritually active way.

East: Natives with placements in Purva Ashadha will find some of their fortune in the east. With moon here they my be most comfortable in at the east side of a room, the east side of town, or travelling in the eastern direction.

Air: changeable, subtle, cold, pervasive, movable, clear. Fire & Air cooperate. Water & air do not cooperate & earth impedes Air

Human: The clan of humans, they are not angels or demons. They try, but in the end they are only human.

Pitta:   Fire + Water = Hot, oily, light, sharp, rough. Vibrant, successful, aggressive. Disturbed by sour (Venus), pungent (Sun). Pacified by bitter (Mars) & sweet (Jupiter).

Adho Mukha – Downward Facing: Relates with research, containment, underground activity, digging wells or mines, drilling for oil, digging up the garden or other trenching activities. It may also relate with shame, pessimism or low self worth that causes you to keep your eyes cast downward. Bharani, Krittika, Ashlesha, Magha, Purva Phalguni, Vishakha, Mula, Purva Ashadha, and Purva Bhadra. Planets like Mars, Saturn, Rahu and Ketu share this nature.

Balanced: Here we find the balanced approach. Allows free will and fate to meet in the middle. But sometimes even balance can come at the cost of rigidity.

Vishnu – Sustaining, Maintaining, Organising principle: Focus is to maintain order in the universe, in society and life. Their focus is to maintain what is here and keep things going. It primarily does this through organisation of the available resources. Purva Ashadha is focused on maintaining existing beliefs through song, story, dance, and art.

Female: Imparts feminine characteristics to living karakas of planets as well as to those of the houses owned by the planet. Jupiter as the 5th owner here could give more female children because Jupiter is the 5th lord and the natural karaka for children.

Ashoka Tree: Widely known to promote heart health. Sagittarius is widely known to relate with blood pressure. Apas, the goddess of the waters, Venus the goddess of love and pleasure. In the Ashoka tree we find the Yakshas (just as we find the Fairies in the Hawthorne). The forest spirits and nymphs who live in the tree worshiped by old ladies seek out the Ashoka and Hawthorns for protection.

Hawthorn: Sacred to Yakshas and the fairies. Saskatoon berries and mountain ash are also close western relatives. They are best known for their sharp thorns that provide protection for the plant, but also makes it perfect for growing along boundary lines. Their branches can be piled up and partly woven together to make a fence. Both Hawthorn and Ashoka trees have medicinal properties for cholesterol and heart conditions which is a common condition for Purva Ashadha natives.

Special Considerations

• Pushkara amsha 21º Sagittarius(Libra Navamsha). Nourishing point. Moons transit brings auspicious and nourishing results. Good time to plan auspicious events.
• Brihat Samhita says that when Saturn transits Purva Ashadha, the people of Anga, Vanga, Kosala, Girivraja, Magadha, Pundra, the city of Mithila and the town of Tamralipti get trouble.

Key Themes

• The beautiful life is exalted above and beyond moral or ethical life. They highly value wealth, music, dance, beauty, design, spiritual art & sensual pleasures as the keys to life. They can be self destructive in their pleasure seeking, they will usually have nice, pleasant, stylishly religious attire.
• This might deal in luxury products and services, especially those directed towards women. This can be the trophy wife whose “job” it is to be beautiful, or to beautify the atmosphere
•  They have the ability to draw people or things in , like sponges they can absorb everything.  They have to be careful with drinking.
• They might work around water, with water products, or even in water utilities, shipping or sailing. They are balance seekers and may work in global industries that allow them to mix with different cultures and religions; they might have a great appreciation for the international or global business. They can be very cooperative when working with others and they are not likely to hold prejudice based on race or religion or anything like that. They usually believe in fairness and equity and they can be compassionate, humanistic and generous.  They usually have a great capacity to bring inspiration. 
• We cannot gloss over the spiritual and religious implications of this nakshatra. Nothing touches these folks quite like an exquisite cathedral, or an ancient temple. They would like the song and dance of the Hari Krishna cult; all that Sufi twirling, Theresa d’Avila’s “Interior Castle,” the seductive side of tantra, the Buddhist mandala’s and all that kind of thing. Morning arti, singing in the choir, the right music for the morning drive, little things like this can make all the difference in the lives of the native.
• Influences on this nakshatra by aspect or placement of the planets as well as the condition of Venus and Jupiter, and of course the house placement will all have an effect on the functioning of this nakshatra. These folks like to be pleasant, pleasing and agreeable so any influence upon them will have a strong effect. Such is the sensitivity of water.   

Health: Thighs & back of trunk

 

Purva Ashadha is rajasic, of the air element, pitta dosha, balanced, and female.  male monkey. By nature they are fierce and severe, and seeking moksha.

The watery nature of this nakshatra suggest it has strong relation with the blood, they lymphatic system and the hormones; the watery parts of the body. The goddess Keta from western philosophy rules of the creatures of the water which we can relate to the things that are carried in the blood stream and the tides of the body. The fierce, rajasic, pitta nature of this nakshatra, and the Auto-immune disorder of the same name suggests a strong connection to the part of the immune system that is controlled by the lymphatic system.

Needles, injections, vaccination, insulin dependent diabetics, herion addicts, several pleasure drugs or date rape drugs, acupuncturists, various serums.

Blood pressure, cholesterol, the elasticity of the circulatory system can all be affected for natives with placements here. Of course these afflictions end up having a negative effect not he heart like Myocarditis. Blood poisoning is also common. This may be due to drug or alcohol use, environmental exposure, or poor diet.

Since these folks can be over-sexed, STD’s are not uncommon, and if we consider the monkey connection, herpes is likely to be common, but due to the private nature of this disease it can be difficult to research. STD’s often go on to affect the bladder & kidneys.

There is some suggestion that lung problems or breathing problems may also arise from planets placed here. They might have some unique sensitivities (allergies). This nakshatra is very feminine, watery and emotional. Water is not hard, but it is heavy. It’s soft but it’s destructive.

Thighs (hips): Billy Idol has Mars in 8th house Purva Ashadha was in a major motor bike accident that completely mangled his leg. Oddly enough, while he was unconscious his mind became aware that this whole universe is LOVE. Jupiters aspect likely saved his life and his leg. From another perspective, sciatica can also result from afflictions,

APAS: an autoimmune disorder occurs when the body’s immune system makes abnormal antibodies that attack and damage tissues or cells. Antibodies help defend the body against infection, but in the case of APAS, the antibodies attack the body. As an autoimmune disorder, APAS occurs when the body makes antibodies that mistakenly attack phospholipids, a type of fat that’s found in the blood. This then causes blood clots to form in veins and arteries, which can lead to numerous problems and complications. 70% of people diagnosed with APAS are women. The effects can be quite severe: difficulty speaking, visual disturbance, head-aches, pulmonary embolism. Blood clots can lodge in a lung causing sudden shortness of breath, coughing up bloody mucous. Oddly enough, people with APAS are typically advised to avoid many of the most advised foods for healthy life: no avocado or garbanzo beans or other Vitamins K rich foods like leafy greens, broccoli, brussel sprouts, or cabbage for these folks. It seems like a strange cosmic joke that there would be an illness directly targeting the kind of diet that the Aphrodites of our world tend to follow; but here we have it.

On the other hand, it also seems fitting that they might have some unique sensitivities.  This nakshatra is very feminine, watery and emotional. Water is not hard, but it is heavy. It’s soft but it’s destructive.

Gods & Symbols of Purva Ashadha

Apas: Cosmic Ocean – Cosmic Consciousness

The part of the water element that has to do with a refined sense of taste. She purifies and cleanses ones sins, washes away the dirt. Apas is dynamic, nourishing, nursing, purifying washing away the impurities and also cleans the inconsistencies of human behaviour. Indra was the one who defeated Vritra, the one who blocks the flow, in order to allow the water to flow, nourish and bring light. Apas however, doesn’t mean water. It means yagna karma, sacrificial deeds. Water is very sensitive to vibration, sound, wind, everything; it’s easily disturbed and agitated and relates to all kinds of change or instability. Water is responsible for the fluid metabolism in the body and so blood, lymph, and other fluids are considered water elements. Water connects to the tongue and the sense of taste. Water is the dominant element in the Kapha Dosha. Compassion, empathy. Agni, the god of fire, has a close association with water and is often referred to as Apam Napat “offspring of the waters.”

Aphrodite

She is said to have arisen from the sea foam and represents erotic beauty and aggressive sexuality & seduction. She is the patron goddess of prostitutes, fertility, vegetation, agriculture and springtime. She is a a Great Mother, maternal, protective, a bit militaristic; she takes care of business and was often associated with administrative bureaucracy. She was claimed as a divine guardian by many political magistrates.

It’s said that when Cronus severed Uranus’ genitals and threw them behind him, into the sea, the foam from his genitals gave rise to Aphrodite. She’s typically depicted as a beautiful, sensuous, nude, nubile, unmarried woman; though a consort of the God of War, and the blind singer Demodocus describes her as the wife of Hephaestus. She is said to have been born as a fully formed adult woman and had no childhood: always sexual and fertile.

Aphrodite is said to be the waiter of the giants and many other horrible beasts. She is almost always accompanied by Eros, the god of lust and sexual desire. Her main attendants were the three Charites.

Her main symbols are the dove, the anemone and myrtle flowers as well as roses. She also has strong association with the sea and is said to rule over much of the water-fowl such as ducks, geese and swans and she rides on a chariot pulled by sparrows. Other products of the sea are used in reference to her such as the sea generally, conch-shells, sea-shells, dolphins and mermaids. Apples and pomegranate also find expression through her as they were eaten by women for birth control. She has much in common with the Egyptian Goddess Ishtar, and some suspect her stories may relate with baptism in some way.

Many stories praise her feats and give e warning against over-looking her worship. The women of Lemnos once refused to offer sacrifice to her. Aphrodite took revenge by making them all smell so horribly that their husbands stopped having sex with them; they frolicked with their Thracian slave girls instead. This led to the women murdering their husbands and their slaves and all the other men of the island. It was after this that Jason and the Argonauts landed on the Island to find it full of sex-starved women, and, with Aphrodite’s approval they impregnated all the women and repopulated the island. Those ladies never again showed disrespect to Aphrodite.    

Another story (part of a play) has Aphrodite causing Phaedra to fall in love with her step-son. But Aphrodite knew Phaedra would be rejected. After the rejection she killed herself and left a suicide note to Theseus falsely claiming that Hippolytus tried to rape her. Theseus preys to Poseidon to kill Hippolytus, which Poseidon does by having a wild boar spook his horse which cause a chariot accident. The play concludes with Artemis vowing to kill Aphrodite’s own mortal beloved, Adonis, in revenge.

Another story has the wife of King Cinyras of Cyprus bragging that her daughter, Myrrha, was more beautiful than Aphrodite. Myrrha was then cursed with insatiable lust for her own father, King Cinyras who she tricks into having sex with her in a dark room. Myrrha was eventually transformed into the myrrh tree and gave birth to Adonis in this form. It might be noted that King Cinyras had three other daughters: Braesia, Laogora, and Orsedice. For reasons unknown a curse by Aphrodite influenced them to have sexual relations with foreigners and live out their lives in Egypt.

When Aphrodite was pregnant with Priapus, Zeus’ wife Hera sought revenge against the child (who she may have believed to belong to Zeus). She rubbed Aphrodite’s belly with an evil potion that would make the infant into a hideous creature. When Aphrodite gave birth, she was horrified to see that the child had a massive and permanently erect penis, a potbelly, and a huge tongue. She abandoned the child to die in the wilderness, but a herdsman found the boy and raised him as his own. It was later discovered that Priapus could use his massive penis to aid in the growth of plants.

It’s said that Zeus once became annoyed with Aphrodite for causing deities to fall in love with mortals, so he caused her to fall in love with Anchises, a handsome mortal shepherd. With this love in her heart she appeared to him while he is alone in his home in the form of a tall, beautiful, mortal virgin girl dressed in bright clothing and gleaming jewellery, her breasts shining with divine radiance. Recognising her as Aphrodite he promises to build her an altar on top of the mountain if she will bless him and his family. But Aphrodite lies to him saying that she is not a goddess, but the daughter of a local noble who was snatched up by Hermes while dancing in a celebration in honour of Artemis, the goddess of virginity, and she claims to be a virgin herself. She begs him to take her to his parents, and he, mad lust for her and swears that he will do whatever she want if she will have sex with him. After their lovemaking, Aphrodite reveals her true divine form. Anchises is terrified, but Aphrodite consoles him and promises that she will bear him a son who will be the demigod Aeneas who will be raised by the nymphs of the wilderness for five years before going to Troy to become a nobleman like his father.

In another story, The Sun God Helios saw Aphrodite and Ares having sex in Hephaestus’s bed and warned Hephaestus, who fashioned a net of gold. The next time Ares and Aphrodite had sex together, the net trapped them both. Hephaestus brought all the gods into the bedchamber to laugh at the captured adulterers, but Apollo, Hermes, and Poseidon had sympathy for Ares and Poseidon agreed to pay Hephaestus for Ares’s release. Humiliated, Aphrodite returned to Cyprus, where she was attended by the Charities. Much later in the history of mythology, this story has Ares putting the young soldier Alectryon by their door to watch for Helios because he knew Helios would snitch, but Alectryon fell asleep on duty, Helios discovered the two lovers and alerted Hephaestus. Ares turned Alectryon into a rooster which always crows at dawn. Although there is no specific mention of it, the mythological history seems to be rewritten after this little affair: Aphrodite & Hephaestus are both written as being with different consorts as if they were never married. In later works, he is married to one of the Graces and she is married to, or at least the official consort of Ares. There is a famous vase (the François Vase for history buffs) with the the later two arriving at the wedding of Peleus & Thetis on the same chariot as Zeus & Hera and Poseidon & Amphitrite.

The Goddess Venus

The goddess of love. The ideal woman. Balance, harmony, sexual and sensual pleasure,

Yakshas (related with Ashok tree)

Nature spirits, usually benevolent, but sometimes mischievous or capricious, connected with water, fertility, trees, the forest, treasure and wilderness. But Yakshas have a dual nature: but there is also a darker version which is a kind of ghost (a Bhuta) that haunts the wilderness and devours travellers.

Kubara, the guardian of underground wealth was considered the king of the Yakshas.

Yakshas are to the Ashok tree as the fairies are to the hawthorn, a safe home where the humans never go. If I’m not mistaken, there was a Briar Rabbit who used to hide in a Briar patch that had the same protective capacity.

Hand-Fan 

Produces wind. Cooling in the heat. Also used as a protective veil to hide the face; like a face masks. A fan is also used to fan the flames and inject oxygen into the fire to make it burn even hotter. Decorative fan’s were also used to separate people into various classes depending on how ornate the fan was. These days, hand fans are popular as a prop with c cross dresses and transvestites.

Winnowing Basket

Used to separate the wheat from the chaff. In more traditional societies these winnowing baskets still get used on a regular basis to remove stones from the rice and dhal. There are may metaphors about shedding their outer layer, removing the shell, getting away from the protective shelter of the home.

If we consider this nakshatra in light of covid, we get face masks (the hand fan), the serum (apas) and the effect of separating people based on these things as governments sought to enforce ideological purity separating the complaint from the non-compliant (the winnowing basket).

Ascendant in Purva Ashadha

Shil-Ponde: Female native with Purva Ashadha Ascendant: “Lovely eyes set in a beautiful face, small cupid’s bow lips, brown, naturally curly hair, describes the native with Purva Ashadha rising at birth. She is also to be distinguished by the small well-proportioned feet. She has a generous positive character and should be successful in some occupation which would enable her to employ her natural ability as an organiser and manager. She is apt to have been born in an influential family.”

Shil-Ponde: Male Native with Purva Ashadha Ascendant: “… corresponds to rather a low type of character. One who does not wish for and does not get the gracious things out of life. Stupid, yet ostentatious and vulgar, with very few educational advantages. Quarrelsome and low in appearance and manner. While he must, because of educational handicaps, go through life as a servant or at best an underling, He vainly considers himself above his station in life and will be harsh and dominating but ineffectual if put in authority.”

Shil-Ponde: General Indications: “Thin body, small fingers, chronic pains in the joints of the legs and hands. Distinguishable by a fierce look, harsh voice, and a penchant for loud clothes. People of low class or servant class usually born here. Little education; very corrupt. Will always abuse their relations will often die of blood poisoning.”

On the one side, you can give a lot of advice — but you cannot hear advice from others. While you pretend to be courageous, you cannot reach that state unless forced either by circumstances or by persons to show the requisite courage. In decision making you are lacking. You find it difficult to make a decision even on small matters. Once aroused by instigation or argument you make decisions without thinking of the pros and cons of such action and you stick to that decision till the end. Even if you are completely wrong, nobody can change your decision. Such is your obstinate character You like to do a lot of things for others for nothing in return but you will be subjected to a lot of criticism. You derive maximum benefit from unknown persons. You cannot keep any permanent relationship with anybody. If you can work with a particular aim with full sincerity, you can reach the top of life. You hate external show. You are god fearing, honest, humble and far from hypocrisy. You can never think of doing anything which will disturb the progress of others. You will be highly religious and always interested in religious acts. You are a good collector of antiques. You may also take interest in writing poetry. Even though you can shine in almost all fields, you are particularly fit for a doctor’s profession or fine arts. You are advised not to venture for any business unless you have dependable employees or managers. You will be attracted to the studies of occult philosophy and sciences. Up to 32 years of age will be a period of trial and error. thereafter you slowly start climbing the ladder of success. Between 32 and 50 years of age will be very good.

Your married life will be more or less happy. Your marriage may be delayed. In some cases, it has been noticed that marriage takes place in a most competitive way. You are more inclined towards your spouse and in-laws. Even then, there will be frequent disharmony between you. At last, you find peace in the company of your spouse. You will be lucky to have talented and respectful children, who will bring name and fame to your family. There may be at most two children. While your outward appearance is extremely good, your internal constitution may not be good, your health may not be good. It is quite often noticed that you are prone to a particular incurable disease. Still you will not care for your health.

You may face problem with your thighs. You must take care about your lungs as you are liable to suffer from rheumatic pains.”

Phala Deepika: Sagittarius Ascendant: “The person with Sagittarius ascendant at birth will have a long neck and face with large nose and ears. He will always keep himself in some work or the other. He will be self-sacrificing and eloquent in speech. He will be short of stature. He will be courageous and will overcome his enemies.

Ascendant in Purva Ashadha Pada 1, Leo Navamsha: (Jupiter + Venus + Sun) Truth, justice, fairness. Bepin Behari suggests that these natives might loose their mother early in life (mothers longevity is decreased. I would expect certain amount of theatrical self-righteousness. Strong, active fit. Great dancers with high confidence.

Ascendant in Purva Ashadha Pada 2, Virgo Navamsha: (Jupiter + Venus + Mercury): A bit of warrior mentality comes into these people. They may use ideology and progressive policies to fix things. More of an army officer than one of the guys in the trenches.

Ascendant in Purva Ashadha Pada 3, Libra Navamsha: (Jupiter + Venus + Venus) “You may affect the uncle’s (mother’s brother) health and longevity. Danger to maternal uncle. You will be well-behaved, endowed with a high sense of honour, well-off, calm and cool-minded. You will have at the most two children. You will have ample money till the 40th year. thereafter, several unexpected expenses will take away a major part of your wealth.

[Many charts have not been confirmed so ascendant and even moon nakshatras may not be correct. There may be inconsistencies regarding the house placement of the planets as well. Use your own judgement. A healthy dose of scepticism should be applied to astrological data generally.]

Sun in Purva Ashadha

Most of these natives have exceptional intelligence. Some of the greatest minds of several generations have this Sun placement. Spiritual gurus and university professors are common.   Father is likely to be an orthodox religious man.

Bepin Behari: Sun in Sagittarius: allows a person to draw upon their experience from the past which allows them to easily listen to the voice of their conscience. They will have an innate understanding that this voice has a strength and rationale which must be listened too and respected.

Sun in Purva Ashadha Pada 1, Leo Navamsha: Sun in own navamsha.

Sun in Purva Ashadha Pada 2, Virgo Navamsha: Contrarian ideology. Their beliefs tend to be decisive. Good position for making and facing enemies: Rittenhouse and Thunberg are classic examples from both sides of the political isle.

Sun in Purva Ashadha Pada 3, Libra Navamsha: Sun in debilitated navamsha. We find several spiritual powerhouses with this Sun. Libra is balance, union, yoga. They tend towards a balanced and inclusive belief system.

As a rule the wife of the native will be impressive, good at public dealings, a good hostess, kind to servants and helpful to her partner. She is good looking but high fisted. The sun in Aries, Leo, Sagittarius, brings dishonour to husband. If this Sun in a water or earth sign gives success in life and in service only up to age 50.

Moon in Purva Ashadha 1st house:

Rules the 8th house for Sagittarius ascendant.

• Phala Deepika: Waxing Moon in 1st house “provides and strong body and long life, power, wealth and freedom from fear.” Waning Moon in 1st house is “just the opposite.”
• Jataka Bharnam: Moon in 1st house “with malefic influence causes the native to lack restraint and do base and evil deeds, they may be deaf or dumb, disabled.” Malefic influences will have a powerful effect on both moon and ascendant when the moon is here as there is no secondary ascendant to defuse some of the affliction, so even minor afflictions may be acutely felt.”
• B.V. Raman: Moon in the 1st house: “The native becomes fanciful and romantic, a moderate eater. Considerable restlessness is usually tempered by an easy-going disposition. The fortune is generally changing. It makes one an idealist, a great traveller and explore. If conjunct Saturn, the mind will always be worried. If with Mars, women will suffer mensural disorders. Sociability tends to be a strong feature. He will be successful in professions that bring him in contact with the masses. Conjunct Rahu can give hysterical tendencies. Conjunct Jupiter elevates the mind.”
• BPHS & B.V. Raman: 8th lord in the 1st house: “The native will be bereft of bodily pleasures, be a detractor of gods and brahmins and have wounds.”
• Commentary: An agent of social transformations and destruction. One’s own personal identity and body will undergo radical change. May identifies as a social ideological outcast. May live a high risk lifestyle with many brushes with death; may be always on the edge. Identified with many taboos, and emotional volatility. They might themselves act as caretakers of those suffering traumatic abuse while perpetuating it on others. A wounded healer caught up in cycles of catastrophe and comfort. Their lives are often cut short. They might, however, have undisclosed sources of rejuvenation and protection. They often exude mystery, sexuality, death; everyone knows they are trouble, but they are often the ones who are there to comfort even the most dispossessed.
• It’s notable that I don’t have a single person in my files with Moon in Purva Ashadha Ascendant. The classics consider 8th lord in the 1st house to be a kind of Balarishta, causing death in childbirth or at a very young age. Please let me know if you or anyone you know has such a moon.

Moon in Purva Ashadha 2nd house:

Rules the 9th house for Scorpio ascendant.

• Phala Deepika: Moon in the 2nd will make one “rich, very learned, soft spoken, blessed with all worldly pleasures, but occasionally stammering.”
• Jataka Bharnam: “Full moon in 2nd house brings prosperity, happiness, humility, progeny, good looks and wealth. Slim moon in 2nd causes the native to be a liar, penurious, has little intelligence, lacks foresight and has a narrow outlook on life. He cannot estimate his means, resources, or the situation in order to do anything or turn a profit.”
• B.V. Raman: Moon in the 2nd house: “Will have a large family and enjoy much happiness. Money will be obtained through females. The financial position will be somewhat variable, will have a fair complexion. Dhundiraja says the native will be reserved and not much sociable, squint eyes and much admired.”
• BPHS & B.V. Raman: 9th lord in the 2nd house: “The native will be learned, popular, wealthy, lustful, and blessed with happiness of wife and son.”
• Commentary: comforting voice, story tellers, wealthy, “comfortable,” stored comforts, rises and falls of wealth. Needs some savings to be comfortable. May work with food, preserving, storing, breeding, Sense of belonging to a spiritual faith based family. Religious stories. Needs to believe the stories the hear and they need to be believed. But the 2nd house is also 6th from the 9th so that there will be policy and doctrinal disputes, global travels, university studies and ideology will change your life.

Moon in Purva Ashadha 3rd house:

Rules the 10th house for Libra ascendant.

• Phala Deepika: Moon in 3rd supports “lascivious brothers, gives one strength but makes very miserly.”
• Jataka Bharnam: Moon in 3rd house “tends to make a person violent, given to pride, miserly, lacking intelligence, dependent on relatives, devoid of kindness but without fear. If Moon is full they will have vitality and vigour, an invisible desire to live, and strength to fight against disease. If a slim moon has malefic influence here, the native is stupid, insolent, impolite, making decisions without thinking.”
• B.V. Raman: Moon in the 3rd house “Changes in occupation are common, fond of traveling and active minded. Wife will be fair. The native possesses good knowledge, but is rather indifferent to spiritual values of life. Subordinate to wife and attached to children. If moon is waning one will be cruel, miserable, impious and unscrupulous. An unfavourable position for peace of mind if afflicted.”
• BPHS: 10th lord in the 3rd house: “The native enjoys happiness from brothers and servants. He will be valorous, eloquent and truthful.”
• B.V. Raman: 10th lord in the 3rd house: “The native has to travel constantly on short journeys. He will be a speaker, writer or celebrity if the 10th lord is well placed. His brothers may be instrumental in helping with his career in some way. If this planet is poorly placed by sign, nakshatra or in navamsha (6th, 8th, or 12th navamsha) the natives rise will be slow and beset with obstacles. If the 3rd lord is also afflicted, rivalry between brothers may lead to reversals and obstacles to ones career.”
• Commentary: Believable communications. Known for media publication. Comfortable with frequent global travels. May tour with a team, band, group or entourage. Religious spiritual messages, university papers, philosophical discussions. Global commerce. They may be a guide. International journalist covering global topics, may be ideologically or religiously influenced.
• They may live the life of a busy executive with much global travel. They like to have a schedule, meetings, appointments, group activities. In pure Ashadha there would be a high level of service, lovely places with beautiful women, fine food, nice hotels, and entertainment.

Rules the 11th house for Virgo ascendant.

• Jataka Bharnam: Moon in 4th house “allows the native to gain from products of the water: fish, pearls, corals, conches, etc. they get happiness of agricultural land, wife, conveyance, son, etc. They are devoted to gods and brahmins.” “The native may inherit or succeed a kingdom, they will be happy when the people of their home are happy, but they will not be happy in childhood. They are popular in their home place but change residence, they have good health and the mother is long lived. They get the affection and cooperation of their mother, conveyance, cattle, mental peace and good health.”
• B.V. Raman: Moon in the 4th house “Possesses house, deprives happiness from relatives; will be cheerful and contented; becomes important as a leader or a ruler; proud and somewhat quarrelsome. If the moon is also afflicted, there will be early separation from mother. Unless aspected by Jupiter, he will have a fondness for sensual pleasures.”
• BPHS: 11th lord in the 4th house: “The native will have gains from his maternal relatives, will make pilgrimages, and will possess, happiness, house and lands. They will earn wealth through the sale and purchase of lands, transport, agriculture, nursery, etc.”
• B.V. Raman: 11th lord in the 4th house: “One acquires profit through real estate, rentals and products of the earth. His mother will be cultured and distinguished. He will be renown for his learning and scholarship in various subjects. He will live in comfort and enjoy all joys of life. He will have a devoted and charming wife.”
• Commentary: Profit from farming, land, fishing, real-estate, schooling, civil infrastructure, and teaching (potentially unlicensed). Maybe a source of change in the educational system. They bring knowledge of complex systems to the home culture. Many be an activist for small scale solutions. This is like the person who gains by transforming a local culture into a tourist attraction. Some could argue that it protects the local culture from complete disintegration; while others might point out that the cure is as bad as the illness. They can nonetheless gain from land stewardship, protective services, and education. They might have a guest house, ashram or school that is frequented by people from around the world. Home is typically an open space  By following the natural cycles, seasonal festivals, and rhythms of the earth

The native may get his learning in a foreign country, which brings great expense. If weak he will remain in his own country but go stay in a hostel for his education.”
• B.V. Raman: 12th lord in the 5th house: “Either difficulty to beget progeny or unhappiness from children will be experienced. He will be religious minded and may undertake pilgrimages. Weak minded and suffering mental aberrations; he feels he in miserable. He will not succeed in agriculture as his crops will suffer from pests and disease.”
• Commentary: They often have a great love for children and can lose themselves in play. They make good teachers of early education but their intellect and imagination may also be that of a child. They like to be around creative childlike nature, they are comfortable as the centre of attention. One may be distant from one’s children or seek to keep them out of the spotlight that you live under. Child could grow to be very spiritual; perhaps setting off on pilgrimage or going to private school at a young age. They may be a performer of spiritual rituals belonging to a distant land or a time long passed. One may have expenses related to children, child-support, alimony.

• Jataka Bharnam: Moon in 11th house “native gets exceptional honour, happiness of several kind of conveyance, is rich in righteous fame, sensual enjoyments and virtues.” “Ambitions are fulfilled, popular, attains glory, and has many daughters. A weak and heavily afflicted moon here will cut one off from society.”
• B.V. Raman: Moon in the 11th house: “One will be noble, generous and blessed with riches, wife and children. Introspective by nature and quiet going, he will be famous and make profit through business. He will acquire vast lands and be helped in his endeavours by the fairer sex.”

Earns through medicines, sometimes confronts difficulties in fulfilling his ambition, get enmity from older brother, and progeny after medical treatment.”

• Commentary: Activism against climate change. Likes to be with large groups.
  • • Greta Thunberg (4),

Moon in Purva Ashadha 12th house:

Rules the 7th house for Capricorn ascendant.

• Phala Deepika: Moon in 12th “native is odious to others, miserable, humiliated and indolent.”
• Jataka Bharnam: Moon in 12th house “person does not show good conduct or character, has no friends, suffers from eye disease, is of angry deposition, ands has many enemies.” “This native is emotional, sentimental, very imaginative and seeks imaginary happiness. He leaves his native area to live somewhere else.”
• B.V. Raman: Moon in the 12th house: “The native may suffer some deformity. He will be narrow-minded, heard-hearted and mischievous. He prefers to lead an obscure life in solitude. Eye-sight will be weak. If the moon is waning and combines with Saturn sloth and lethargy will result.”
• BPHS: 7th lord in the 12th house: “The native will be penurious and miserly and his wife will be a spendthrift. He will earn a livelihood by trading in clothes, textiles, garments, etc.”
• B.V. Raman: 7th lord in the 12th house: “The native may be married more than once and may marry clandestinely while the first wife is still alive, or if afflicted the second wife may come after the death or divorce of the first spouse. If the affliction is severe, loss of spouse may occur soon after marriage and there may be no second marriage. Death may occur while travelling abroad. If both karaka and 7th lord are weak the native may only dream of marriage but never marry. The natives wife may hail from a servant family. He will be close fisted and generally poor.”
• Commentary: This is not a good position for partnerships or marriage and partners will always be distant and mostly a drain on your resources. They can however help with private getaways, foreign travel, and seclusion. Both partners typically have a strong need for privacy in the marriage and the terms of contract. Often times they just come together for one point, which certainly eludes to sex, but it could be anything; other than that one topic they don’t really have any further business with each other. They might use partnerships as a means of emotional escape, possibly with someone of a foreign culture and different ideology. They will enjoy getting away with their partners, private affairs, secret deals, backroom negotiations. They are typically very private people. All their partnering activity, deal making, and trusts fade into the background of their lives. They are not visible components of who they are; which typically makes them appear as independent actors. Spouses might identify as a hurt, exploited, marginalised person who is not good enough for the native; possibly causing them to wall themselves off from the relationship, or initiate divorce proceedings or lawsuits. The more power there is in the 12th house, the greater the losses will be for the native. One is likely to replace actual knowledge of their life partner with imagination and fantasies and conduct the relationship based entirely on subconscious projection. This creates and cycle emotional abuse and conflict followed by nourishing and comforting bedroom behaviours.

Mars in Purva Ashadha

They can be very competitive for knowledge and the search for truth. They often think that they are the one with the truth. They tend to think they are invincible, especially after some early successes. Influences from other planets would have a strong effect on their education. Additional malefic influence might lead them to more technical fields, while benefics is more likely to lead them health, wellness, coaching. They seek to use knowledge and wisdom to defeat others. They think they are pretty smart, but Mars doesn’t think, he just takes action.

Since this nakshatra is ruled any Apas, goddess of primordial waters, there can be problems from alcohol consumption. And since this nakshatra relates with Aphrodite women with this Mars can easily weaponise the female form. Even in the Iraq war we find a weaponisation of women rights (which is theme of Purva Ashadha.

Mars rules the brothers and boy friends in a woman life (the men who are more or less equal to her) she will be attracted to pretty boys, handsome, intellectual, broad minded and liberal; most often too liberal. It’s likely these folks have brothers who are spiritual, stylish and well travelled. The might enter competitive fields of higher studies: athletics, business, art or design.

Since Mars is our activities, Purva Ashadha becomes the main field of activity. They tend to move with a nice flow like water. They might like to learn and teach though direct experience and they can be somewhat aggressive competitive teachers. They might even find themselves in competition with their own students. Although there is a side to them that might seem open-minded and liberal, they only espouse these virtues for their own gain. It’s possibly that they have some military training, shooting and marksmanship, and perhaps even horseback riding, which, in modern times may be a bicycle. Since they are more than capable of “handling themselves” they can be quite adventurous. They can be good strategists in sports, military, policing.

They tend to ideology and emotion and will not change their views even in the face of evidence for the contrary.

Mars in Purva Ashadha Pada 1, Leo Navamsha: They like to show off in how smart they are. They will weaponise what they see as the truth. They are not nearly as smart as they think they are. I’m sure those of you with this placement are already ready to argue with me. Don’t bother, you’ll only prove my point.

They might fear being wounded by fire or weapons. This is not good for the health of the natives wife and the person has to work extra hard for success.” “When Moon & Mars are conjoined the native is devoid of good conduct, crooked, valorous, a trader, makes quarrels, opposes his mother, has pains due to disease. The native is energetic, enthusiastic assiduous and rash. Not auspicious for married life. If conjunction occurs in 1st, 8th, 10th, or 11th house it can make the native descent from noble ancestors and very strong. In other houses they are devoid of wealth. If Saturn also aspects this combination they will have incurable blood disease.”

If in masculine sign, he will have fiery nature, will be amorous, aggressive, defensive, rash, head-strong, forceful, impatient; he will suffer from burns, scalds, injuries from falling, gastritis, biliousness, and teething problems in childhood.

The native suffers mental unrest, wounds, injuries on the head, the private parts, or the part of the body indicated by the sign. Mars rules the muscular system and urino-genital organs, feverish, inflammatory troubles, small-pox and oils in childhood. These are indicated if Mars is in power. Little physical suffering if Mars is in his fall in the ascendant. The native is handsome if Mars is retrograde. If associated with a malefic or enemy planet he will have a short life, few children, biliousness and an ugly look. If in enemy sign or associated with a malefic he will suffer eye problems.

If in Cancer the native shows industry for living and promotion. In Leo, it’s only by chance. If in earth signs, Taurus, Virgo or Capricorn, he will be cruel, thoughtless, conceited, greedy, selfish, malicious, sexy, peevish, boozy and have blood poisoning.

If Mars is exalted or in own sign the native with have a strong, healthy body, royal favour and reputation, longevity. If Mars is in Capricorn: wealth, education and good vision result, but there will be much physical suffering for father. Mars in the first makes the native run after every kind of profession until age 36 when he will establish himself faithfully to any one. Vainly considers himself superior to others. Should be a doctor; it will make him an able surgeon; but it’s not very favourable to lawyers from the financial point of view. Suitable professions are car or airplane drivers, iron-smith, carpenter, goldsmith, mechanical engineers, turners, fitters, land-surveyors, etc.”
• Chandr-Mangala Yoga: Moon conjunct Mars (or in mutual aspect): “The person deals with drinks, earthen jars, crude instruments and women. There is disobedience in the mother.

If the lord is moderately good, mixed results will follow.”

If it’s a common sign the native will generally be wandering about. If conjunct the 6th lord, the native will have a long life unless the 8th house is also afflicted. This can also indicate imprisonment or living abroad. If 12th & 1st lords exchange signs the native will be miser, hated by all and devoid of intelligence.”

Mars in Purva Ashadha 4th house:

Rules the 3rd & 8th houses for Virgo ascendant.

• Phala Deepika: Mars in 4th house “person remains friendless, without mother, land, happiness, shelter, conveyance. All the significations of the 4th house are destroyed.”
• Jataka Bharnam: Mars in 4th house brings “pain and grief through friends, conveyances and growth of disease in the body. The native gets no cooperation from relatives, disputes over immovable property, and strife that often causes the native to live away from home. The native lacks power, courage and endurance; or their courage may be the wrong kind of courage. They are frenzied, fitful, emotional and rash. This position is unfavourable for marriage and the wife may have a blood disorder of heart disease. If this Mars is in a fire sign with fiery aspects, the natives house might catch fire.”
• B.V. Raman: Mars in the 4th house “This is generally a bad combination: the person will be deprived happiness rom mother, relatives, friends; but will have success in the politics. Quarrels with mother and domestic affairs go awry. In Mars conjuncts Rahu or Ketu he may have a tendency for suicide. He will own a house but will not be happy in that account.”
• BPHS: 3rd lord in the 4th house: “The native will be happy wealthy and intelligent but will acquire a vicious wife. Virgo and Pisces ascendants may suffer addiction due to the natives effort to study occult science.”
• B.V. Raman: 3rd lord in the 4th house: “Life will be happy on the whole. He becomes rich and learned, but the wife will be cruel hearted and mean. When well-fortified while the lord of 9th and lagna are weak, his brother will survive him. He will have step brothers if the 9th lord is strong. When Mars is weak he will lose his lands and will have to live in others houses. Evil results will be minimised if the 3rd lord in beneficially disposed.”
• BPHS: 8th lord in the 4th house: “The native will be deprived of his mother and there can be no doubt he will be devoid of house, land and happiness and will be a betrayer of friends.”
• B.V. Raman: 8th lord in the 4th house: “If conjunct with the lord of the 4th the natives mental peace will be shattered. Domestic bickering, financial and other problems will increase. Mothers health may suffer and cause great concern. The native will be beset by problems with vehicles, house and land. If heavily afflicted his immovable property may slip from his hands due to circumstances out of his control. His conveyance may get lost of destroyed. He may contract diseases and die. Malefic furthering the affliction  may force hi to seek his fortune abroad where he will meet with all sorts of troubles and loses. Reverses in profession and displeasure of superiors is also likely.”
• Commentary: The universal cycles of death and rebirth are strong with this placement. One’s actions and efforts have an unexpected impact on the comfort of home. Late birth into a family can bring fighting and resentment from older siblings. One’s own proactive efforts to achieve security often undermine themselves and there can be frequent fights in the home and with the partner. Threats and force used to achieve social dominance and marketplace earnings. They might travel frequently, as a self employed home builder, road builder, mechanic, or driver doing contract work. These kinds of things can certainly increase the risk of accident that is associated with this Mars placement. Car accident, road accident, death in the home or on the road. Death or dismemberment by explosion, heart attack. They like speed, and may drive while intoxicated. The home, the roadway can both be places of accident or death. The home is often not a place of safety, there can be home invasions and private security may be necessary.

One’s own and ones wives longevity is shortened; the person suffers unmentionable diseases like piles, wounds, fissure, ulcer, or anxiety. Weak or afflicted Mars can cause imprisonment, criminal mindedness, fear of death. Extra fiery influence on this Mars by sign and aspect can cause death by gunpowder.

This person attracts blame and accusations and may be censured, grief stricken, attacked with weapons, and full of grief due to ones partner.”

• Commentary: This Mars brings a lot of fire to the 8th house. You may have intense sexual fantasies and secretly act them out. Since the 12th house is involved you can “stumble” into intercourse as if dreaming (drunk or on drugs especially if there is further affliction to this Mars in the 8th house). You may lack of accountability for hidden, taboo or sexual activities. This can be a very good position for accessing secret sources of wealth, or getting financial support from the spouse, or insurance claims due to accident. You are not likely to be aware at the time of death. Since this position involved Purva Ashadha one might have rather glamorous sexual experiences. Heavy affliction can bring sexual violence into your life.
• Billy Idol: He was never married (likely due to sun and Ketu in the 7th house giving his partner a power independence. But it’s also likely that he had several secret sexual relations. In Jupiter – Mars period  (1994) he collapsed outside of a nightclub due to an overdose of GBH which is known as a “date-rape” drug.

• Werner Heisenberg: He has a similar toxicity of Mars & Saturn with Ketu aspecting, but Jupiter also conjuncts the pair to influence a more academic interest in 8th house matters like research. He was on of the early nuclear physicist so it’s likely he was poisoned by chemicals and uranium and such things.

• Jataka Bharnam: Mars in 9th house “causes the native to tend towards violence; they get honour from the government but no advantage comes from it. They are less holy, less virtue, less wealth. They are courageous and have a strong healthy body, they like adventure travel and are the makers of their own destiny. If Jupiter aspects a well placed Mars here, they may worship fire and perform yagnas and fire ritual.”
• B.V. Raman: Mars in the 9th house: “The native will wield authority and be affluent. He will have children and be happy. He will not be a dutiful son but will be otherwise generous and famous for his good qualities. If either Mercury or Jupiter conjoin he will be learned in religion and spiritual lore. Venus conjunction will give two wives and a foreign residence. It also give the native proficiency in law. Saturn conjunction indicates addiction to other women and a wicked nature. He will be self seeking stubborn and impetuous.”
• BPHS: 1st lord in the 9th house: “The native will be fortunate, dear to the people, a devotee of lord Vishnu, a skilful eloquent speaker, endowed with wife, sons and wealth. The native will be steeped in sattvic and devotional feeling and will a a favourite of the people because of his moral values which seems proper and respectable to all.”

• BPHS: 8th lord in the 9th house: “The native will be a betrayer of his religion and a heterodox. He will be the husband of a wicked wife and will steal the wealth of others. AS belief in his own religion is destroyed he comes to believe in gods of a lower order: ghosts, pishacha, jinx, etc. Once morality is lost is can be easy to steal from others. If Jupiter is debilitated the affliction against religion will be especial strong: atheist, heterodox despite being born from a brahmin or religious family. He will eat prohibited substances.” (The 5M’s are traditionally prohibited: 1. Meat, 2. Fish, 3. Wine, 4. Parched grain 5. Sexual intercourse.)
• B.V. Raman: 8th lord in the 9th house: “If conjunct the 9th lord with malefic the native may lose the paternal property and misunderstanding with father will arise. If the Sun is also afflicted the father may die in periods of the 9th lord. If conjoined by benefics the native acquires fathers property and relations with him will be harmonious. If the 9th lord is weak, the native suffers all kinds of hardships, misery and unhappiness. His friends and kinsmen will desert him while his superiors will find fault with him. If the 8th lord falls in the 6th, 8th or 12th navamsha the evil results will be greatly reduced.”

Good position for astrological counselling, shamanic healing practices. Frequent changes of home. Teacher of teachers. They can also be good road and land surveyors, developers.

There can, however, be some dismissal of the partner’s faith from the perspective that it’s all the same. Home for these folks is quite often wherever their partner is.

• Jataka Bharnam: Mercury in 8th house “gives prosperity due to favour and kindness of the king. The person suffers from pride, opposes others and destroys their work. Vipreet raja can make this Mercury very auspicious; the native may be long lived, fame spreads far and wide, he remains cheerful, has sex with many different women, but has strength and supports his family. The person may have poor handwriting and be opposed to their brothers. Problems arise due to signing contracts, borrowing or lending without first thinking it through.”
• B.V. Raman: Mercury in the 8th house: “The native will possess many good qualities. He will be known for his breeding and curious disposition. He will inherit as well as earn much wealth. He will be learned and famous for his scholarship in many subjects. He will live long but have a weak constitution.”
• Chamatkar Chintamani: Mercury in the 8th house: “The native enjoys a long life and is renown in his own and in foreign lands. He is cheerful, gains through royal favour or business, enjoys pleasure and the confidence of women. Longevity, reputation, wealth, debauchee but famous for his qualities, glorious, hostile but philanthropic, ungrateful, vicious, sexy, lying, ailing. The native gets wealth from the state, proud, antagonist of the people, disrupting, deviating, magistrate, supporter of his family and distinguished personality, truth-loving, honours guests and dies peacefully. If Mercury conjoins a malefic or is in enemy sign the native suffers from degradation due to over passion. His courtesy makes him famous and rich. Whatever planet be in the 8th house the result is one and the same. This native is wicked, rich, cheerless, danger from weapons. No friend or relative, life in prison. Death in a holy place and peaceful. If this Mercury is malefic: acute pain in thigh or stomach. In a female chart this Mercury will bring trouble, discord and disputes; worries due to financial difficulties with husband, partners and others. She is inclined to occult services, literature and the search for a life here and in the hereafter. Lively at time of death. If this Mercury is afflicted by Mars or Saturn brain or nervous conditions may prove fatal. Gain through goods of the dead. This position of Mercury is gainful. It gives longevity, prosperity. Land and property. Seven sons, high status in the 25th year, and royal favour, He annihilates the enemy and is a glorious person. If lord of the 8th is strong, exalted, in own sign or with a benefic the native enjoys longevity. Life is cut short if in enemy sign, debilitated or with a malefic. Gain if this Mercury is in a masculine sign; wife keeps secrets and lives merrily with husband. In a feminine sign it bring mental anxiety and physical agony; they are quarrelsome and they give out family secrets. This native is inclined towards knowledge of scripture and divine learning. If the Sun is near this Mercury it gives royal favour and good reputation with the public.”
• BPHS: 2nd lord in the 8th house: “The native is endowed with abundant land wealth, but he will have little mental felicity and be bereft of happiness from elder brother. Wealth usually comes from testament or inherited property. Wealth increases after marriage from the cooperation of partner or partners family.”
• B.V. Raman: 2nd lord in the 8th house: “Will have very little of no happiness from husband or wife. Misunderstandings with elder brothers. Gets landed properties.

• BPHS: 5th lord in the 8th house: “The native will have less progenies happiness, will be troubled by cough, pulmonary or respiratory disease, be given to anger and devoid of happiness.”
• B.V. Raman: 5th lord in the 8th house: “Paternal property will be lost due to debts. There will be extinction of the family. The native will suffer from lung trouble. He will be peevish and unhappy, but not poor.”
• Commentary: There may be secret love affairs with students as these natives are not shy to talk about all those things we are not supposed to talk about. Since Mercury rules over the group process, they may be involved with private sex parties or other kinds of secret organisations. Since Mercury (and 5th house) likes fun and games, you will enjoy sex and may involve in various toys or games in your love-making. Your sense of self worth may be tied your ability to keep secrets or provide sexual pleasure.  Lies and cover-ups involving sex or death can become a big part of the persons life, but the lies are usually revealed by the constant and sudden changes of the story-line. On the up-side, these folks can be very good at managing other peoples money, making investments on someone else’s behalf, acting as a silent partner, or even gambling or taking risks in someone else’s name. You will likely find a way to capitalise on your hidden knowledge. The will experience many sudden ups and downs in life.You will likely have hidden accounts and secret sources of wealth They may have children which the keep secret.

Jupiter in Purva Ashadha 

“Ethics and aesthetics are one.” ― Ludwig Wittgenstein

“The deepest principle in human nature is the craving to be appreciated.” — William James

They absorb everything, they are like a sponge taking it all in. They are usually highly learned; with or without formal education they will be quick learners and have abundant knowledge. They are likely to be liberal in love, but finding their ideal partner can sometimes be difficult as not everyone can handle their expansive emotions. Many of these people have training and higher knowledge or finance and economics.

“If you and I are to live religious lives, it mustn’t be that we talk a lot about religion, but that our manner of life is different. It is my belief that only if you try to be helpful to other people will you in the end find your way to God.” ― Ludwig Wittgenstein

“There is no end to the adventures that we can have if only we seek them with our eyes open.” ― Jawaharlal Nehru,

“The only way to deal with an unfree world is to become so absolutely free that your very existence is an act of rebellion.” ― Albert Camus

Saturn in Purva Ashadha

“Go ahead punk! Make my day.” — Clint Eastwood

This can give a beautiful setting to the work place which usually suggests a higher standing in society. They believe in hard work, commitment and dedication in order to live the good life. Teachers and gurus can be harsh with them and due to the high expectations of the teacher they might be treated as though they are a little dense; this might also be because of their resistance to the point of view of others. They can be directly confrontational. They tend to be more conservative in their political views and practical in their spiritual views. They learn early that life is not fair, we have to work hard and earn our place in this world. Later life is usually easier than early life since they spend most of their time working in search of the ideal. This is likely to have a negative effect on their relationships.

“Respect your efforts, respect yourself. Self-respect leads to self-discipline. When you have both firmly under your belt, that’s real power.” ― Clint Eastwood

“First, I blow a hole in your face; then I go back inside, and sleep like a baby… I guarantee you.” ― Clint Eastwood

“Forgiving and being reconciled to our enemies or our loved ones are not about pretending that things are other than they are. It is not about patting one another on the back and turning a blind eye to the wrong. True reconciliation exposes the awfulness, the abuse, the hurt, the truth. It could even sometimes make things worse. It is a risky undertaking but in the end it is worthwhile, because in the end only an honest confrontation with reality can bring real healing. Superficial reconciliation can bring only superficial healing.” ― Desmond Tutu

“Despite a voluminous and often fervent literature on “income distribution,” the cold fact is that most income is not distributed: It is earned.” ― Thomas Sowell

“Since this is an era when many people are concerned about ‘fairness’ and ‘social justice,’ what is your ‘fair share’ of what someone else has worked for?” ― Thomas Sowell

In other signs the results are similar to those of the Sun, there is trouble in the nose, illusions, heart-burning, trouble in the womb and joints, biliousness, chill, pain in the private parts, under-arm and body pains. Respiratory problems if Saturn is afflicted. If it is unfavourable, trouble due to poverty, own acts, evil spirits, devils and thieves. Saturn is very troublesome causing total ruin.

Rules the 1st & 2nd houses for Capricorn ascendant.

• Karako Bhavo Nashto: When the karaka (or signifying agent) of a house is placed the house of his significations it destroys the results of that house. As Karaka for the 12th house, Saturn bring too much isolation and deprivation. May be related to depression or post-traumatic stress disorder.
• Phala Deepika: Saturn in 12th house “makes a person impudent, indigent, childless, disabled, stupid, defeated by his enemies.”
• Jataka Bharnam: Saturn in 12th house person is “merciless, extremely poor, unhappy because of expenses, effort, and expenditure. The person is lethargic and living in company of mean people. He is devoid of some bodily organ and deprived of all kinds of happiness. Poor eyesight, excitable temperament, miserable, dirty, wicked, devoid of wealth. One is often oppressed by own men or he is opposed to them.”
• B.V. Raman: Saturn in the 12th house: “The native will be dull-headed and lose all his money. He will have squint eyes, a deformed limb, make many enemies, suffer losses in trade, be a pessimist and commit sin in secret.”
• BPHS: 1st lord in the 12th house: “The native will be bereft of bodily pleasures. Unless there is benefic aspect he will untruthfully spend his wealth and will be given to much anger.”
• B.V. Raman: 1st lord in the 12th house: “In addition there will be many losses, visiting holy places and no success in business enterprise. He will spend inherited riches on charities and other deserving causes. Emotionally balanced he will dedicate himself for public weal. Same results as 1st lord in the 8th: “Learned, gambling tendencies, interested in occultism and mean character. If the lord is strong, they may take pride in helping others and have many friends. He will be religiously inclined and have a peaceful and sudden end.”
• BPHS: 2nd lord in the 12th house: “Makes a native adventurous, devoid of wealth, dependent on others, and bereft of happiness for the eldest son. The native will spend his wealth, earn money in a foreign country.”
• B.V. Raman: 2nd lord in the 12th house: “The native becomes a respectable man. In all probability he will be a government servant and will be deprived of happiness from elder brother. Income will be through ecclesiastical sources. If the 2nd lord is afflicted he will loose money on this account.”

Rahu in Purva Ashadha 1st house: 

• Phala Deepika: Rahu in 1st house “makes a person short lived. He has wealth and strength but suffers from ailments in the upper part of the body like the face or head, etc.”
• Jataka Bharnam: Rahu in 1st house “gives a wicked and vicious nature. The person deceives his own men, suffers from disease of the brain, is sickly, is extremely lustful and victorious in debate. The native will experience bodily pain in Rahu dasha; he does not have any moral scruples or hesitation in using others of their things, but cannot bear injustice done to themselves. They are extremely clever and cunning in fulfilling their selfish desires.”
• B.V. Raman: Rahu in 1st house: “The health will generally be unsatisfactory calling for treatment other than medical methods. It inclines one to the occult and the serious wilfulness of nature is well marked. A hypocritical super-consciousness towards others is likely. It makes one appear rather odd and eccentric. This combination is usually bad for marriage. Rahu will generally partake in the characteristics of Saturn.”
• Chamatkar Chintamani: “The native with Rahu in Janma Lagna is a conqueror of enemies. He makes glory and influence of other people an instrument of his success. Can utilise effectively their powers for himself and others. Insatiable and abundant sex drive. Not being satisfied with his own wife he shows lewdness and adultery. The native gains competence with the help of friends and sudden use of own and others wealth with their effective grace. Bereft of enemy, he is always ready for work, has two wives and is surrounded by many charming ladies and is quick to hold discussion. Rahu indicates a lot of trouble and suffering. The native is inert, selfish, ugly, foolish, cruel, merciless, irreligious, immoral and sick. Rahu in Leo bestows gods plenty: He is wicked, cheats his own people, suffers headaches, ailments, sensual, short lived, rich and strong. In Aries, Taurus or Cancer relieves of all ailments, makes him bold but agitated. He possesses blood-shot eyes, defective nails and dress. Exalted in lagna bestows recognition from government and worry due to sickness. In other signs there can be trouble, grief and strife from government. Can give Raja Yoga in Aries, Taurus, Gemini, Cancer, Leo, Virgo or Capricorn denoting prosperity and charity. In other signs offspring may be denied or born dead. If associated with malefics face will be blemished and he will be firm, sensual, very sexy, well-dressed. This position denies happiness from wife and sons. There is trouble on the way, danger form water, one is quarrelsome and extravagant. The native can make great strides in life, gain honour, wealth and favour through religious, educational or scientific achievements. He has a dominating personality, promising self-expression and will have gains of happiness through own initiative; but slow to pick up new ideas and averse to formal education. Well aspected and strongly placed prompts much benevolent work. In masculine signs  (or Scorpio) second wife is indicated. First born fails to survive. In female signs: a single wife, little happiness and an adopted son. The native in generous if in Aries; merciful in Leo; uninvolved in Sagittarius; very interfering if in Taurus, Cancer, Virgo, Capricorn, or Pisces; Fault finding is in Gemini, Libra, or Aquarius; disorganised in feminine signs.”
• Bepin Behari: “Rahu in the 1st house and Ketu in the 7th intensifies the material urges of the individual. It drives one to seek prosperity, personal prowess, greater work skills, higher social status, and to leave ones mark on society. Yet these individuals fair to satisfy their thirst completely. This leads to disenchantment with the people or groups with whom they come in contact. Self-conceit greatly vitiates their interpersonal relationships and these individuals may experience great anguish and phycological frustration at many levels. They may begin to analyse the working of their inner mind. The psychological changes arising out of situation makes them more introverted. As their frustration is transmuted these persons gradually begin to immerse themselves in humanitarian activities and become useful members of society and helpful and understanding workers.”
• Prash Trivedi: Rahu in the 1st house and Ketu in the 7th “fortunate in that it allows the native to successfully project their personality to the outside world. Rahu is said to do well in the 1st, 9th & 10th houses. If Rahu is placed very close to the ascendant degree, then it gives an out of ordinary physical appearance and personality. The person is usually on the taller side and has a peculiar sort of wordiness attached to their manners, which of course is not very pleasing to others. A heightened sense of self, which can often turn into ta false sense of pride or vanity, is noticed; which can drive them to act mindlessly on many occasions.If Rahu is working through his higher principle, this position provides keen insight and capacity for constant introspection. This is why this combination produces so many philosophers and saints. These men having the true understanding of the working of the cosmic forces don’t like to be addressed by titles. Rahu here can also provide deep insights into mass psychology and future trends. they can be found working in any field, but we do find that many scientists, inventors, explorers, adventures have this placement. They like to have independence in whatever they are doing. Rahu in the first provides good physical stamina and vitality that might be over-extended in exploration in extreme conditions, adventure sports. They often feel lonely. Their sense of individuality does not depend on social intercourse and they have capacity to be alone for long periods of time. Ketu in 7th hinders the formation of any lasting relationship. Unless there are powerful forces over-riding this, life-long bachelors is the norm with this placement. Relationships only stand a chance if their partner gives them lots of room to be themselves and follow their own path. They can be sweet and humble in their social conduct unless afflicted. They always stand by the way they think and feel and are very frank and outspoken about it. This habit does not help them win many friends except those with enough understanding to gage their real intent. Public speaking comes naturally to these people even is they seem shy off-stage. The native has to learn to take the spotlight off one’s own self in order to understand and accommodate others. They are caught up in the dilemma of why should one scatter one’s energies outside when the whole universe exists within the self. This often causes them to completely exclude the world outside. More evolved souls do not make this mistake because they understand self-realisation has no meaning unless it is shared with and includes the world outside as well.”
• Authors General Commentary on Rahu in 1st house: Unusual, fascinating, bi-polar, outcast, deformed. Their personality is boundary breaking and they often feel special or chosen in some way. Their personality may show some inconsistency like mania, depression or bi-polar. Some kind of physical deformity is possible. This could be something subtle or it could be major depending on the power of lagnesha, degree, and other factors. These natives often have the ability to fascinate people, and since Rahu rules over magnetism, people are often drawn in by this fascination. They may be attractive or repulsive, but it’s likely they will manage to blend both of these traits into the moment. They are often non-conformist living on the fringes of society or freely mixing with all people regardless of social position. They are often rebels without a cause putting themselves before everyone and everything else. They are likely to do almost anything to be noticed. Many may be affected by fatal alcohol syndrome or other debilities from the womb. Rahu can be recognised by wide set eyes, scanty hair (on the head, body and face), a smoky appearance, some oily or snakelike qualities, and certainly there will be something foreign (mixed race) looking about them compared to the typical features of their family. Some believe that the father could be someone other than the mother’s husband. At the very least this is likely to be questioned at some level.

Rahu in Purva Ashadha 2nd house:

• Phala Deepika: Rahu in 2nd house “will make the person insecure in their speech, suffer from diseases of the mouth or face. They will be contemptible, receive wealth from the ruler, be happy but short tempered.”
• Jataka Bharnam: Rahu in 2nd house “disturbed the natives speech making in unpleasant and unwelcome, wealth is destroyed and the person becomes a rover, a wanderer and a loiterer. Conflict, sorrow, and separation from family, loss of connection to paternal property, difficulty accumulation wealth, and valuables may be lost, stolen or eaten by ants.”
• B.V. Raman: Rahu in the 2nd house “Peevish, diseased face, friction in family life, danger to eye-sight. Financial affairs uncertain unless other favourable combinations occur. If Jupiter aspects the 2nd house earnings will be good. Money is gained through friends and business.”
• Chamatkar Chintamani: “The native with Rahu in 2nd house meets the destruction of his family. A liar, fearless, treasurer, sees the destruction of relatives. Danger from weapons. Influenced by the wicked. This native, even with all his wealth, lives in poverty. Stife and discord with relatives prompts him to conceal the truth. Fear of arms and enemies. Fearless and dependent and receives severe punishment due to scoundrels. He is selfish, unhappy and unemployed in own land, but gets rich in foreign land. Much opposition and hard struggle to gain any success. He has speech defect and suffers from nose and throat problems. Gain and happiness through royal favour. The native becomes a thief, proud, very unfortunate, wealthy through trade in fish, lives with lowly people and is averse to friendly advice. There is loss of wealth, poverty and wandering. He is harsh, talks too much: unpleasant, offensive, disagreeable, untruthful, ungainly, and is denied success. He could gain through leather goods and stolen property. Teeth are irregularly set. Some of these natives are dexterous. If associated with malefic, loss of family and opponents, three marriages. This native is bilious, bright, name and fame, and has more than one wife. The native is poor, sick, troubled through sons and has a dark complexion. If in auspicious position denotes a mark on the chin, defect in the eyes and on the face. This Rahu prompts prosperity, gain through legacy, inheritance, science and learning. He get success through property, employment and business; apical, profitable business alliances. Favourable if in Virgo or Aquarius, or in feminine signs. Loss of patrimony and anscental wealth if in inimical position in masculine signs. Disputes and great losses. Luck comes after death of father. Second marriage. Easy come, easy go. In feminine sign it denotes gain and success through big establishments. He is a spendthrift who values name over wealth.”
• Bepin Behari: “Rahu in the 2nd house and Ketu in the 8th may give the individual a sense of mission, a feeling that he or she is functioning as an agent for some higher power. In extreme cases this can lead to megalomania. More often it makes one so opinionated that it may be difficult for them to establish a positive rapport with others. These persons have unrealistic expectations of others and want to change them to suit their own specifications. They may not feel content with their achievements, and become obsessed with securing even more. The promise of acquiring greater physical or spiritual merit often brings radical changes in their thinking. They may grow interested in occult sciences as they become increasingly aware of the immense psychophysical possibilities inherent in the process of expending their consciousness.”
• Prash Trivedi: Rahu in the 2nd house and Ketu in the 8th: “Considered a good placement for the wise management of resources, material and spiritual, available at ones command unless there is affliction. If afflicted the native is sure to go through a period of deprivation followed by a period of plenty. It’s good for material well being but the desires never end. There is an intensity about getting exactly what they want. Satisfaction or the lack of it became a keynote for these natives. Usually gives an attractive personality, especially to female natives if there are favourable supports. It usually imparts an unorthodox beauty and captivating quality to the natives face which seems to mature early. Although this position of the nodes supports a wide variety of professions it has a tendency to favour mathematicians, linguists, astrologers, economists, financiers, bankers, explorers, researchers, singers, and musicians. It favours a capitalist mindset unless aspected by Saturn. If badly afflicted the native can loose his sense of proportion and earn through trickery, deceit, bribery, blackmail or theft. It’s likely many drug dealers have this placement. Money made is usually spent quickly on indulgences: smoking, alcohol, meat. Jupiter aspect can redeem a person. A lot of present day evils arise from this combination, but in its higher aspect it gives a love for truth and a charitable disposition. Ketu in the 8th house is good for carrying out research in any chosen field. If working through its higher aspect the native will not fear death as they understand its power to renew. If well placed and materially inclined it can bring legacies and resources of others later in life; but if it’s weak it will only give expectation and no fulfilment. Affliction can give sexually transmitted disease. There is need to maintain calm in the worldly game of gain and loss. If the native gets carried away in either of these they will find life to be unforgiving. They need to seek balance between the earthy second house and the emotional 8th house.”
• Author’s General Commentary on Rahu in 2nd house: Lies, false values, corrupt banking, unusual image, creepy smile, impure food. Image is everything to these people. There is usually something unusual about the face they show to the world: the way they speak, dress, the stories they tell, the lineage they claim to be from. Something about their image just doesn’t quite fit who they really are. They may have something unusual or deformed about their face, mouth, eyes, or hair style. They like to project wealth that they don’t have and debt is a common outcome. Money really does have a way of burning a hole in their pocket. They have no sense of the true value of anything and they have no qualms about appropriating someone else’s hard earned income. Some kind of hoarding is also common with this placement, and since they are incapable of properly judging value, their hoards are usually filled with worthless junk.Their speech usually comes across as insincere (if not outright lies). But they are often great storytellers with a liberal use of improper language. Speech impediments are not uncommon with this placement.  They are prone to illnesses of over consumption and likely eat meat and drink alcohol in the quest for what they believe the good life to be. They can be the worst kinds of Hippocrates claiming false lineage and never living up to the values they claim to follow. This actually allows them to do pretty good in society for a while, but eventually the smoke clears and they are exposed for their lies and corruption.

Rahu in Purva Ashadha 3rd house:

• Phala Deepika: Rahu in 3rd house native “will be proud, hostile to his brothers, strong minded, enjoying longevity and wealth.”
• Jataka Bharnam: Rahu in 3rd house “native has no fear of the enemy, his fame and glory spreads around the world, he always has the attainment of welfare, grandeur, majesty, happiness, licentiousness or luxurious life; but there is the destruction of younger brothers and cattle. Rahu is auspicious in the 3rd house and allows them to complete their tasks quickly, surprise others with their power of discretion or taking decisions, and fulfilling their responsibility.”
• B.V. Raman: Rahu in 3rd house makes a person “brave for outward appearance. Sudden and unexpected news. Generally bad for brothers. He may incur severe criticism on account of his views and ideas.”
• Chamatkar Chintamani: “The native with Rahu in 3rd house is matchless in prowess. Stronger than the strongest animals (lion or elephant), treats all as brethren. Fortunate. Why should he work? This native is most lucky and extends friendship to all but is least actively benevolent; toughest in most difficult work. Sleepless nights for the enemy, renown, lives in luxury, trouble for brothers, loss of cattle wealth, wretched, affluent, valiant, artless, state authority, charitable, proud, firm-minded, long-living. If exalted (Taurus or Gemini), the native is fortunate, blessed with wife and sons; has friends, conveyance and attendants. This Rahu denotes bravery, courage, industry, fortune, wealth, state honour, health, many friends, travel, annihilator of enemies, agricultural wealth. Favourable in exaltation (Taurus or Gemini), own (Aries or Scorpio) or enemy sign (Cancer or Leo). Rahu in Leo gives an imposing personality. This native is sharp, inclines towards spirituality or higher education disciplines, gets good fortune and success though his affectionate dealings, neighbours, journeys, writing or publishing. Favourable in feminine signs. Death inflicting bringing trouble to brothers. Death inflicting to sisters if in feminine signs; for brothers in masculine signs. Two brothers cannot live together. Does not spare even the first born son.”
• Bepin Behari: “Rahu in the 3rd house and Ketu in the 9th gives many responsibilities along with a tendency towards reclusiveness. These individuals come out of their isolation when their assistance is sought and they are thrust into leadership roles. The leadership may be philanthropic activities, dissemination of the wisdom of the past and sacred scriptures, or in the realm of political organisation and philosophy. They may impart guidance in psychological exploration or industrial organisation. They suffer when they have to follow routine duties; otherwise they do not reject hard work, penance, and contemplation. Gradually they realise that public and charitable work is the best goal in life and they embrace the principle of right action: selfless activity with no expectation of reward.”
• Prash Trivedi: Rahu in the 3rd house and Ketu in the 9th: “This is considered an auspicious placement for the nodes. Rahu provides material success while Ketu takes care of inner life. Rahu provides courage but also misunderstandings with younger siblings. As is the case with natural malefics the live things of the house suffer (younger siblings and companions), while the non-living things prosper: mental and physical energy, passions, prowess, leadership ability, oratory, scientific rational thinking, writing ability, etc. In some cases strong assistance from younger siblings helps one get ahead in life (or vice versa). Short journeys bring luck, though they can sometimes be unpleasant. Longer journeys to distant countries do not turn out to be suited for the native unless Ketu is strong in a friendly sign and conjunct the yoga karaka planet or exalted planet. A peculiar thing of this placement is that the native can hold a gun or a pen with equal ease; which they choose depends on other things in the chart. Writers, orators, painters, sculptors, instrumentalists, soldiers, athletes (especially those requiring skill and strength of arms), generals, revolutionaries, political and spiritual leaders are likely to have this combination. The physical and metal abilities provided by this Rahu can be uses in positive way if other placements in the chart provide an integrated personality. I have found that, due to the 3rd house emphasis, this placement to produce a number of atheists who swear by science and scientific thought. Late in life that can swing to the other pole and denounce everything material. They have to strike a balance between physics and religion; aggression and compassion, the drive and the path, mater and spirit. If an evolved should is capable of striking this balance they will realise the beauty, dexterity, gentleness, and genius of this placement. The first half of life is usually more fruitful than the second half: if the native achieves fame and fortune in his youth, this will be lost in his 40s. Age 47 begins a new episode in their life: for those who have had a relatively uneventful life until this point they now, after 47, find an opportunity to make their mark on the world. Ketu should be quite strong for this to happen. After age 47 Ketu tries to bring the 9th house to light. For those who have lived a material existence up to this point will find it a miserable experience; especially if they are not willing to change the course of their life.”
• Author’s General Commentary on Rahu in 3rd house: Fake new, criminal gang, mixed messages, dirty mentality, false courage. These people can often be found mixing amongst unusual groups and possibly criminal gangs. They are so fascinated by teams and tribal affiliations that they get in way over their heads. They want to be seen as special because of these group affiliations and they can be highly manipulative of their group, tribe, team or gang. And often these groups are on some kind of mission to bend the rules or break taboos. They may be famous for their urgent and ambitious messaging style, but as the smoke clears (and it always does), their false reports will be plain for all to see. They are masters at harnessing the power of social media and some might even be effective hackers. Their mixed messages and foggy communication brings a pronounced confusion to interpersonal relationships as others wonder just what kind of message they were trying to send out. Their gestures are often exaggerated in some way; this includes a kind of insincere communication style. Rahu 3rd often signifies smoking, or the inhalation of thick oily smoke that will have its effect on the lungs. Ear problems like tinnitus can be seen with this placement and it’s likely they will have some kind of deformity of the shoulders, hands and arms. Crooked fingers and knobby knuckles is the most common manifestation of this placement. We see a person’s mentality in the 3rd house so Rahu here makes them unusually often criminal in their intent since they don’t play by the same rules as the rest of us. Rahu’s effect on the kama trine ensures that these people will break the rules to satisfy their desires. They can be exceedingly courageous, but in many ways it’s a false courage that tends to get them in over their heads. Hobbies are also seen in the 3rd house so they will likely have unusual, smokey and boundary breaking hobbies. Since small commercial ventures are also a part of 3rd house we can also find these natives doing some kind of shady business. The 3rd house is the first upachaya and Rahu is said to do well in these houses. Some astrologers say that he is exalted in gemini, and it’s true one can do well in the material world with this placement, but it’s the kind of doing well that comes with the suffering of the insatiable desire to fulfil their desires. This position works well for used cars salesmen, cheats, media activists. [Note: regarding journalism or messaging that the Sun will seek after truth and Venus will seek balance.]
• Commentary: they might have hobbies in and around water, going to visit watery places a short distance from home or on a short trip.

Rahu in Purva Ashadha 4th house:

• Phala Deepika: Rahu in 4th house person “will be a fool, contemptuous, causing misery to friends, short lived and seldom happy.”
• Jataka Bharnam: Rahu in 4th house native “losses all happiness, opposed by own people, sons, friends, and waders in lands other than his own. Health of native’s mother is disturbed, he suffers mental tension, disputes over immovable property.”
• B.V. Raman: Rahu in 4th house make the native “foolish in behaviour; few friends; will be subjected to fraud or guilty of fraudulent action.”
• Chamatkar Chintamani: “If Rahu is in the 4th house one’s mother is always indisposed; the native himself suffers from psychic problems. If Rahu is in Aries, Cancer, Gamini or Virgo the aforementioned results are modified: the native gets happiness from mother, stability of mind and is a favourite of government. The native’s mother is always ailing and in mental agony. In Aries, Taurus, Gemini, Cancer, or Virgo one gets honour from the king. This native is always unhappy, a fool, living in foreign lands, quarrelsome and miserable, without well-wishers, and issueless. He has much travelling, trouble from womenfolk, eat., separation from community, lonely in solitary place, association with low, wicked, a back-biter, has only son and is thin and lean wife. There is trouble and loss to parents and relatives. He is haughty, insolent, and his mother suffers from biliousness and she dies from an attack of sticks or stones. There is death of materials through poisoning or arm wounds, enemy of own people. If afflicted, the native knows no happens. The native is prosperous, has two wives, attendants or he himself is in service. If conjoined by a malefic these results are certain. If associated with a benefic these results are modified. Rahu in Aries, Taurus, Gemini, Cncer or Virgo gives Raja Yoga. Much travelling with a lot of surprises. Trouble if with Sun. Good luck from age 36 to 56. This Rahu denotes gain through property: sudden and unexpected. He is inventive, gentle, trust worthy, long-living, geologist and has illegitimate offspring. In masculine signs it denotes a second wife. Conjunct Saturn it denotes murder due to rivalry. Rahu-Mars afflicted by Mars-Moon denote suicide or poisoning. Afflicted by Mars or Saturn indicates poverty, especially if Rahu is in a masculine sign. Financial difficulties are felt by the father: bankruptcy or termination of service, etc. In Gemini, Leo or Aquarius there will be wealth but no off-spring, 2nd marriage, sudden death of ones parents in early childhood. In feminine signs denotes little gain through business by honest means, success in service or partnership, adoption is possible, one marriage and 3 or 4 children, noble partner, bold and affectionate. Saturn-Jupiter association or good aspect with other planets is fortunate.”
• Bepin Behari: “Rahu in the 4th house and Ketu in the 10th may bring emotional suffering and the frustration of desire. These natives often enjoy many physical comforts and opportunities for sense gratification, but first they may pass through heart wrenching situations of utter hopelessness. Their despair may not appear on their faces; indeed, others may accuse them of insensitivity or of exaggerating their troubles. These emotional setbacks may seriously affect their relationships. Those with extremely weak egos may suffer from schizophrenia; those with exaggerated egos may become ruthless and pursue their objectives without consideration for others. When they begin to deal with their inner issues constructively, they prepare themselves to meet any situation without giving undue importance to their person conveniences, dislikes, or troubles. They begin to realise that life is not for idleness but for working simply for the works sake, without wasting time or licking one’s wounds.”
• Prash Trivedi: Rahu in the 4th house and Ketu in the 10th: “Everything is fine as long as the native is not ambitious about career. Contentment is the key word of this placement, A strong attachment to mother or mother figures in seen; similar to Rahu conjunct Moon. Some help from the mother or the mother’s side helps one get ahead in life. The father figure is usually absent from a young age or ignored. They no not like vocations that involve a lot of travelling. They prefer to have a permanent home in a particular village, town or city where they spend the majority of their life. They usually prefer smaller towns to bigger cities. 4th house vocations like property dealers, agriculturists, dairy farmers, transporters, professional drivers, child psychologists, children story writers, interior decorators, architects, construction engineers, etc. are favoured by this placement. At least a couple changes of profession are common. Ketu in the 10th hinders job satisfaction. It becomes the natives duty to insulate the emotional aspects of life rather than the practical aspects. A sudden fall is imminent if the native gets over ambitious in career or reputation. Any attempt to suppress the active subconscious can make their lives dull and sad.”
• Author’s General Commentary on Rahu in 4th house: Boundary issues, unstable foundations, learning disabilities, environmental pollution, no sense of belonging. This is a very difficult placement since it affects the very foundation of our life, mother, home, education. Mother is often ill or absent from a person’s early life. At best she would have been inconsistent in her motherly nurturing affections. There may be some kind of unconventional parentage that disrupted the early rhythms, routines and habits. These people are often raised on the wrong side of the tracks, in factory districts, on or near polluted lands. As children these people were often disruptful in the classroom and it’s possible they suffered from some kind of learning disability. If they get to university it’s likely that this too will be disrupted by some unique set of circumstances.  It’s often due to the unusual circumstances of their early childhood that they will have difficulty fitting in anywhere. They often go away from their birth place and live amongst other cultures in order to feel any kind of comfort, but any true sense of relaxation, contentment or release will elude them. These natives often remain renters and if they do have home or land they often come by it from false pretence: bank fraud, squatters, constant problems with landlords and caretakers who do not have proper boundaries will never provide the kind of foundation needed to establish solid roots in a place or cultural community. Some will seek to defend the land rights of others. And this position is ripe for cultural appropriation. Nannies, babysitters, step parents, early childhood teachers, gardeners and others who take on caretaking and parental roles without being fully legitimate will be seen with Rahu in 4th. Ultimately these people never learned proper boundaries and will invade the physical and emotional space of others and do not have the skills to keep others from doing the same to them. No matter what they do to put up boundaries there will always be a weak point somewhere.

Rahu in Purva Ashadha 5th house: 

• Phala Deepika: Rahu in 5th house “will give a nasally voice to the person, cause them to be issueless, hard-hearted and suffering from stomach ache.”
• Jataka Bharnam: Rahu in 5th house “makes the native devoid of happiness and friends, they suffer a sharp pain in they abdomen and they loiter and wander aimlessly.” “ There may be obstacles in the birth of the first child.”
• B.V. Raman: Rahu in 5th house “The native suffers from colic, mistaken by others and unfriended; will loose a number of children; hard-hearted and unconventional; heart trouble.” “If afflicted there could be scandal through children, or strange courtships. If Venus associates with this Rahu there could be homo-sexual tendencies.””
• Chamatkar Chintamani: Rahu in the 5th house “Delay and difficulty in the 1st born. Worry though short tempered partner. Incurable ailments of the chest. If this Rahu does not indicate good fortune all efforts are useless. The native is blessed with son, his partner suffers stomach problems, faces growing distress and worry. On use to labour if unlucky. He is foolish and has few friends, obstacles in pleasure, lots of misunderstandings. He is cruel, timid, kind but poor and has nasally sound. If conjunct Moon, son is denied. If moon is not here one’s son will be shabby but off-spring are possible if Rahu is in Aries, Taurus, Cancer or Leo. The last two signs promise male children. But worry and trouble through sons; a pain even in the womb. Death due to starvation if in Square aspect [sic]. Indigestion, averse to learning, even with best efforts fails to earn enough, loss of sons, low company, dirty, dull, dark complexioned. Disrespect in dasha period. The native is not blessed with offspring: death of son due to snake curse. Blessed with sons after snake worship. He is bilious, vicious gets punishment from government and lives in a backward village. But this Rahu protects the native from many troubles, calamities and hazards. He is blessed with long living, fortunate offspring, has gains through service, interest in sports and cultural activities. Afflicted Rahu denotes loss and damage though speculation; loss of property through children. Favourable aspect denotes gain through investment and children, and transferring much of this happiness to them. This Rahu is unfavourable in masculine signs; gainful in feminine signs. In masculine signs  the native is wise and famous, but proud. He commits error of choice in subjects: when fit for law he goes too engineering and hence is unsuccessful. There is loss and trouble through business, wife and children. Partner suffers from organic defects including menstrual irregularities and second marriage is inevitable. If heavily afflicted, marriage is denied; illicit relationships. For want of conjugal pleasure these natives are busy with welfare programs. Their published books are their offspring and source of renown. If this Rahu is in feminine signs, he is cal, discrete and detached; highly educated, a seasoned writer, reputed and well known, twice wedded. He is blessed with sons, but generally the first born is a daughter.”
• Bepin Behari: “Rahu in the 5th house and Ketu in the 11th activates the persons creativity in a paradoxical manner, restricting material creativity in order to impels the creative forces to higher levels from which beneficence of different kinds can be radiated. These individuals may experience difficulty in having offspring of their own, but on a mental plane they are very active. The keep themselves extremely busy. Material creativity might suffer, as may sociability, and there can be anxiety about financial security. Despondency  due to such experiences makes them seek compensation on the mental plane where they attain some degree of satisfaction. Ultimately they may become both impersonal and quite successful in relationships. They attain significant social status and may make a great deal of money. They eventually realise that their happiness and peace of mind do not depend on specific work involvements but on a trust in the law of karma. Even in small everyday activities their actions are now guided by an attitude of helpfulness.”
• Prash Trivedi: Rahu in the 5th house and Ketu in the 11th: “This combination can produce the best and the worse type of human being. The 5th and 11th deal directly with ones mental make-up and interaction with others. They have abundant mental energy which can be used for good or evil. Rahu in the 5th provides this mental energy along with highlighting 5th house affairs — intellect, creativity, self-consciousness, past life merits and demerits, children, love of the self and others, acting, confidence, education, publications, mantra, the chosen deity, etc. This is also the house governing mass media and cinema. This is the reason why most actors and other people associated with movie and stage productions have this combination. In my view, photography originates from this placement. In many charts of photographers I have come across this nodal placement in 90% of them. Under malefic influence Rahu in 5th can produce megalomania and even dictators if Sun & Mars are involved — dictators of nations as well as the self styled dictators of home and workplace. It can also produce crooks and swindlers, thieves, thugs if Mercury is afflicted or involved in this combination. It is thus a very sensitive place for Rahu where one need to channel their creative and intellectual energies for the benefit of the group or the sphere of ones influence. In other words, this energy needs to be channelled through he 11th house. There is usually a break in formal education making vocational training preferable to classical education. When working in it’s higher principle, 11th house Ketu allows channelling to happen with ease. When afflicted it can block the 11th house so that one does not have many friends nor are they involved in any social or humanitarian projects resulting in a self-centred life. The self-conscious has to become a part of the group consciousness, and form a part of the collective human consciousness, before finally merging with the greater universal consciousness. 5th house is fire, the 11th house is air; air has no warmth without fire and fire cannot burn without air. The fire produced in 5th house should be dissapated in tot the 11th house so it reaches those who require it. This is the challenge for these natives. Ketu in the 11th house produces misunderstanding with the elder brother and is not considered favourable. Some anxiety on the part of children, their birth and development is also seen. If having children the native usually makes for a concerned parent.”
• Author’s General Commentary on Rahu in 5th house: Drama queen, gambler, forbidden lovers, narcissist. These people want all the attention, they feed off the attention and the drama they create, and their false sense of entitlement allows them to create a lot of drama. Social media influencers and others who project any kind of fantasy life that is really just smoke and mirrors would have this kind of combination (5th owner in 12th house would certainly ensure the fantasy part). They are gamblers and risk takers. They could be the grandmother cheating at cards, the politician accused of insider trading or the sports fixer seeking advantage. They often want to get some kind of advantage from their staged creative expressions. They like to break the rules just for fun. They are often obsessed with the idea of romantic love and they could be serial daters or tinder professionals. Their desperate search for “true love” often leads them down the road to heartbreak. This is also the position of the forbidden lover and illegitimate children (mars aspect can bring an abortion while Jupiter’s aspect can bring many (often adopted)  children. These people will often use their children to get privilege. In poor chart we can find welfare moms and other kinds of negligent parents who use their children for their own selfish ends. They are fascinated by that slight increase in heart rate that comes switch gambling and romance. Rahu here can also give someone an irregular heart beat (especially if sun is involved).  It’s often said that these natives have very sharp minds, but they often prove to be more clever than truly intelligent as Rahu in 5th can cause them to miscalculate (especially if Rahu is influencing mercury as well), make a mistake or obfuscate the matter somehow. Creativity and originality are seen in the 5th so all of this gets a little smoky, certainly unique, taboo and boundary breaking. They can misrepresent their productivity and they are all about productivity: more and more and more, it’s never enough. And the eventual disposal of the smoke will reveal the deeper truths and in the end they often end up without any real friends, just snakes and backbiters.

Rahu in Purva Ashadha 6th house:

• Phala Deepika: Rahu in 6th house man is born “troubled by enemies or oppressed by malefic planets [sic], has ulcers in his rectum, is wealthy and enjoys longevity.”
• Jataka Bharnam: Rahu in 6th house “causes the destruction of enemies and makes the native wealthy giving strength from the company of dirty, sinful people. He suffers back pain and cattle remain sickly and diseased. One may have an ulcer.”
• B.V. Raman: Rahu in 6th house: Long-lived and wealthy, troubled by enemies, ghosts and diseases of the private parts. He will also suffer from sickness of a puzzling nature. There is liability to mental derangement if the Moon and Saturn join Rahu. The person will have many cousins and his private life will be scandalous.”
• Chamatkar Chintamani: Rahu in the 6th house “destroys all the natives enemies. The natives strength, wisdom, valour and conscience are stable. He is matchless. Rahu denotes the destruction of enemies, gain of wealth, knowledge, vigour, no gain through uncles; wealth through alien ruler; trouble in back; longevity; prosperity and noble birth. The native is a hero, handsome, intelligent; respected known [sic] like a ruler. If well aspected, all evils fade away. A strong Rahu indicated cattle wealth but progeny to uncles is denied, or there are daughters only. A member of the family dies in foreign land. Aunts children fail to survive. Goes abroad to become a widow. If afflicted, trouble in the rectum, respected. Trouble in teeth and lips. This Rahu denotes wealth, progeny and pleasure of every shade. If exalted, he is strong and brave: radical, affluent, with conveyance, jewellery, wealth, fortune, and robust health. This Rahu indicated and unstable mind of the father and maternal uncle. The native is infirm, imbecile, absence or enemies, friendly, full of riches. Death due to blow from stick, stone, quadruped, falling from a tree or from drowning. This native is pleasant, tolerant, prosperous. Pleasure with princess if Moon associates with Rahu here. Wealth if associated with benefic, and there will be grace of the government, absence of sickness, wealth, family happiness and loss of enemies. This Rahu promotes health and strength and denotes trusted employees; favours service; fortune through paternal relative; cattle wealth; benefit though prosperous uncles and aunts; danger from service in army or navy. Favourable in feminine signs. There will be success through games and sports. He favours wrestlers and has a lucky partner but early separation though her death and faces many difficulties in promotion. He has fortune after 30 and service from the 23rd year.”
• Bepin Behari: “Rahu in the 6th house and Ketu in the 12th makes these people intensely concentrated on material pursuits. Often their dreams, psychic experiences and spiritual contacts affect them at deeper levels, producing radical transformations in their mental attitude. They feel unhappy about social differences and may face illness, litigations, and personal accusations but they confront them with courage and confidence, and the final outcome works in their favour. The experience gained in these confrontations gives them inner confidence. Their dream experiences, increased sensitivity, and psychic visions initiate them in the knowledge of supra physical realms. The perception of higher realities now becomes more meaningful to them then the enjoyment of physical comforts and social acclaim. They gradually establish greater control over their psycho-physical functions.”
• Prash Trivedi: Rahu in the 6th house and Ketu in the 12th: “Rahu is said to function well in the upachaya houses and Ketu has a natural affinity for the 12th house. This is generally true, but when it comes to giving hard times this is the toughest placement. Rahu in the 6th highlights 6th house things like work, service, health, enmity, distillation and discrimination, dietary and personal habits, accidents, diseases, discipline and austerity, opposition, litigation, power, helpers, medicine, healing. Natives with this placement have come to terms with all of this negative energy to some extent. 6th house represents adolescent years so from this early period these natives show an immaculate sense of method and order in their lives (provided there are supporting factors). If this Rahu is afflicted they can indulge in mindless behaviour that harms themselves and others which they come to later regret. This is a good combination for physicians, healers, therapeutic vocations. The native usually deals with foreigners and benefits from them in some way: foreign service, tourism, import-export, shipping, etc. They have capacity for hard work, and a dint of fearlessness is noticed. Ketu in the 12th usually gives some psychic experience either through dream or visions [or related to the functions of planets in conjunction]. This is a good position for spiritual pursuits, but Ketu has to be acting through his higher principle. The native usually has some understanding of the divine forces in a very personal way. This position of Ketu usually brings about some unpleasant experiences: imprisonment, isolation, accidents, but this is often a good thing as they are paying off karmas from their past. Isolation is very important for these natives as it can bring out latent abilities. After this realisation follows the hard work indicated by Rahu in 6th. A peculiar trait of this Rahu is that no matter how hard they try to avoid enmity, it seems to follow them; this makes forgiveness one of the most important qualities the native can develop. This combination is also beneficial in modern day politics where dealing with enemies and behind the scenes manoeuvres comes naturally to the native. These native usually prevail over their enemies, but enemies can also bring their downfall, and even their death. This position of the nodes usually give a strong constitution but other planets involved can cause serious disease or difficult to diagnose disorders. Sudden unexpected death can also happen if there are other contributing factors. Worldly recognition or success comes only after a long struggle, these natives are very career conscious. They can be headstrong and there is danger of misuse of power, but Ketu in 12th will bring their downfall to teach them the lesson. The native has to guard against rigidity which comes from too much order and discipline in life. They also have to guard against loosing themselves in extreme indulgence from having a complete lack of discipline. Financially the native is neither a miser nor a spendthrift, but they often take up either extreme asceticism or extreme indulgence as a means of attaining liberation. Some few take up the middle path once wisdom dawns on them.”
• Author’s General Commentary on Rahu in 6th house: Provocation, exploitation, playing the victim. The 6th house is the 2nd upachaya house where Rahu is said to do well. He is often called the king maker in this position. He’s at home in this house of crime and accusation where he can exploit people’s vulnerabilities for their own gain. They can be masters at playing the victim role and know just how to exploit and manipulate a bad situation. Because of Rahu’s smoky ways it can be difficult to distinguish the exploited from the exploiter. These people make very good corrupt officials capable of engineering scandals while maintaining their own innocence. Virgo is the innocent virgin and this status, though likely untrue, is used to gain advantage somehow. They might be working behind the scenes as disaster capitalists pretending to help while exploiting the situation for maximum personal benefit. Ambulance chasers (lawyers), Dr Feel-good (drug dealers), bullies and others who seek to exploit the marginalised people will have this placement. Sometimes it’s the subtleties of a healthcare career that thieves in unbalanced situations. Things are never what they seem when Rahu is involved. Rahu in the 6th might be the provocateur who loves to start fights, poke the sleeping bear and lure people into the trap. It’s the young vixen in the short skirt attracting the wrong kind of attention and claiming innocence. It’s the” protester” instigating violence to justify a heavy police crackdown.  Rahu in 6th house is fascinated by drugs, crime, debt, war, disagreement, prostitution, illness and every kind fo imbalance. This can be a very dangerous place for Rahu to get in over his head. Someone may be using medicinals improperly and will be inconsistent in following any kind of therapy. They often avoid personal responsibility at all costs.They may have unusual enemies or illnesses, stomach problems and digestive issues are common with this Rahu. They are likely to prefer (or even practice) alternative forms of healing which can go either way.  We also see peoples pets and service personnel in the 6th house. Both of which will likely be exotic or unusual in some way. And it’s possible they will complain that “good help is hard to find.”

Rahu in Purva Ashadha 7th house:

• Phala Deepika: Rahu in 7th house “native loses his wealth through his association with the opposite sex, deserted by his beloved, suffers from loss of semen, is self-willed and foolish.”
• Jataka Bharnam: Rahu in 7th house give “opposition from ones own partner or one becomes the cause of death of one’s own partner. The natives partner is wrathful, angry, quarrelsome, sickly, and diseased; one remains dissatisfied with married life. Intercaste marriage, losses from business partners, and delay in beginning ones profession.”
• B.V. Raman: Rahu in the 7th house: “The native brings ill-repute to family; especially if a female. Will be unconventional and heterodox. Will have affairs with outcastes or foreigners. The natives wife will suffer from disorders of the womb. He eats good and rich food, has luxurious habits and suffers from diabetes, ghosts and the supernatural.”
• Chamatkar Chintamani: Rahu in the 7th house “Wife dies from infections to the generative organs like the boiling material charred in the cauldron. Separation from relatives and public slander. Partner meets the same fate through disease as the liquid boiling in the pan on fire. He faces danger of separation from kinsfolk and disgrace. The native is crazy deranged, idle, a wanderer, short-tempered, viciously quarrelsome. He is hostile to partners. He dies or get violent, furious, quarrelsome, sick. He is ugly, restless, malicious, strife and opposition; faces hinderance in every work and is deprived of sensual pleasure. Women will have menstrual problems. As their partner is not willing and co-existing, the native is driven to other women. The native is conceited, sensual and sick. Conjunction with Moon denotes every pleasure and a devoted partner. With other planets, a perverse, unfaithful, characterless woman. Want of manhood, wisdom, independent, a widower, and get poverty through women. He also lack sexual desire and the partner is haughty. If Rahu is in the 1st, 6th, 7th, 8th, 11, or 12th house, in a square or a trine, the native is a minister, valiant, strong, famous, affluent, blessed with sons. He will have trouble though wife; body-aches; much enmity lost through trade. This Rahu is fatal to partner and indicates two marriages. First one dies; second suffered from fibroid. If conjoined with malefics, there is goitre and other glandular broths around the neck. If benefic influence is there, the results are modified. The native is a diabetic, associates with widow, strife with relatives, touchy, spiteful, vain, discontented contact with lewd women. If Rahu is exalted or in own sign there will be gain and success from journeys. Luck through sinful acts. Success though speculation and lottery, games of chance and races. Infection though impure women. This Rahu denotes more friends than enemies, gain though dealing with others; pleasure and benefit through women. He has a wise and wealthy partner and gains after marriage. Unfavourable if in masculine sign. The native pays for the sins of their previous life. There will be broken home, loss in business and in service; either want or loss of wealth. If this Rahu is in Gemini, Virgo, Libra, or Sagittarius the marriage is denied. In other signs marriage brings misfortune only. But in feminine signs there can be success, gain, happiness, and prosperity through marriage. This Rahu is not maraka (death inflicting) but can cause danger to those indicated by the house. Of lagna: parents. Of 2nd house: and elder of the family. Of 3rd house: siblings. Of 4th: parents. Of 5th: sons. Of 8th: sisters. Of 9th: brothers and sisters. Of 10th: parents. Of 11th: elder brother or son. Of 12th: uncle or wife.”
• Bepin Behari: “Rahu in the 7th house and Ketu in the 1st may produce restrictions in ones relationships. Psychologically the person can be self0-centred; socially, he is sometimes lonely. He expects the world to conform to his terms while he himself is reluctant to compromise. Such individuals may find partners in life, wether business , social life, or in marriage, not working in harmony with them. Enduring amiability or happiness are difficult to establish. Marital problems do not necessarily arise due to any lack of desire to achieve harmony and adjustment, but could be caused by illness, voluntary or involuntary separate living arrangements, divorce. Such experiences may lead the individual to extreme degrees of loneliness; he feels no one understands or appreciates him. These people have a tendency to relapse into seclusion, to keep away from others physically as well as in thought. When they begin to develop self-awareness, they then find themselves well prepared to undertake severe austerities and to assume a spiritual course in life.”
• Prash Trivedi: Rahu in the 7th house and Ketu in the 1st: “The native is pronounced worldly wise even when they are functioning on an otherworldly plane. Rahu in the 7th takes good care on ones social standing between the years of 24-42 unless there are overriding negative indications. The spouse is usually more mature than the native and a rise of fortune takes place after marriage. If Rahu is working through his lower principle than the motive behind these relationships is questionable and balance is not maintained causing misunderstandings, break-ups and abuse at various levels. If the nodal axis is afflicted these natives will carry out the mindless sexuality we see in modern media. Balance in sexuality is absent allowing the darker side to take over. They often enjoy vocations dealing with people like counsellors, psychologists, management experts, project coordinators etc. They usually start something on their own as they would rather be boss of their own small private setup than work under someone in a bigger set up. Ketu in the ascendant usually adds some psychic dimension to the personality and gives a self effacing nature. An aspect from Jupiter will solve 90% of the problems that can arise from this placement. Natives are usually short in height and have an out of ordinary appearance if Ketu is close to the ascendant degrees. The ascendant lord needs to be well placed to keep these natives from being too under-confident in regards to appearance and personality. An exaggerated self-consciousness may be apparent. Ketu in the 1st is also supposed to give low appetite and peculiar tastes in foods. They can internalise energy and develop along spiritual lines. Spiritual transformation usually takes place in later years. The native has to be careful about depending on relationships to drive his or her sense of self.”
• Author’s General Commentary on Rahu in 7th house: Taboo relationships, deals with the devil, people pleaser. Rahu in the 7th house is notorious for difficult relationships. These people tend to think they need a partner to save them and they will agree to almost anything to get it. Fulfilling their agreements is quite another matter, but they are often offering more than they can do or they are saying they can do things that they cannot. They like taboo relationships, exotic partners are common: cultural mixing, same-sex partners, religious differences, large gaps in age, polygamy or open relationships are just some of the possibilities with this. These days it can even lead to a kind of devout celibacy (which is certainly strange in this day and age). Cheating, or being cheated on is common. They seek agreement and will use any means to get it. It can be very difficult for them to say no and once they’ve compromised they often find they’ve agreed to more than they bargained for. They often cannot see the agreement for what it is or their partner for who they are. And the terms of the contract are soon broken. This is another position that can give illegal business practices. They are more than willing to make a deal with the devil to get ahead. This is like the oil business or any other pollution generating business. But every kind of dodgy deal can come out of this Rahu placement. There is something about these people that is out of tune, they lack balance and harmony and seek equity through unequal terms. They can be very diplomatic and counsellors and advisors who break the rules or deal with taboo topics might  have this in their chart.  This Rahu can cause fertility problems or sexual debility (check Moon, Venus & Mars).
• Commentary: They might not have the same religious, philosophical or ideological beliefs as ones partner though it might be those very beliefs that attract you to your partner.

Rahu in Purva Ashadha 8th house:

• Phala Deepika: Rahu in 8th house “native is short lived, does impure acts, is disabled, developed gout, and rheumatism and is blessed with few children.” “Rahu with Mars can bring cancer.” “Causes death by leprosy, by taking food mixed with poison, by venomous bites, or small pox and the like.”
• Jataka Bharnam: Rahu in 8th house brings the “destruction of one’s enemies, but there is pain in the anus, urinary disease, windy disease, enraged testicles and he remains restless and troubled. Disputes and quarrels over inheritance, fear of theft and wealth earned in questionable ways.”
• B.V. Raman: Rahu in the 8th house: “The native will suffer from public censure and humiliation. He will be troubled by many ailments. He will be vicious, quarrelsome and unscrupulous. If the moon is in conjunction with a malefic planet and Rahu is in the 5th, 8th, or 12th house the native will suffer from mental disorders.”
• Chamatkar Chintamani: Rahu in the 8th house “Complains of gastralgia or globes hysterics etc. Deserted by own family; denied patrimony. Respected and recognised by the rulers and pandits. Fortune smiles once; but losses mock him again and again. The native is forsaken by the noble for no reason. Gain of sufficient wealth from government; sometimes it is lost. Suffers from gastritis. Well-built, living in foreign land, short-tempered; evil-doer; wretched. The native is free from danger, suffers from diseases of the generative organs, diabetes, hydrocele; gains from defeated enemies. Much trouble and suffering. He is praised by the state and pandits but condemned by some. Many ups and downs. Denied patrimony. Stomach problem through hard labour. Malicious; short-lived; bilious. The native is poor, timid, inert, impatient, very cunning, thin, miserable, cruel, luckless; eczematous (skin becomes rough, inflamed, itchy, blistered, bleeding). If lord of the 8th is exalted the native lives till 60. This Rahu indicates a native who is extravagant, sick, strife with brothers, life in a foreign land, unhappy family life. The native is denied happiness through wife, children, honour, education, suffers from diseases of the rectum, diabetes, hinderances and enemies. If Rahu is in Gemini: valiant in celebrated. Danger in the 32nd year; if with benefic it’s in the 50th year. Favourable if in own house or exalted. It promotes health, promises longevity, grants gifts, legacies, and inheritances from the dead. It’s not favourable if in masculine signs. There will be trouble, strife, want, money through unfair means leading to imprisonment; painful end in unconscious state. Of Gemini indicates a quarrelsome partner of a poor family. Luck does not favour independent business; resorts to service. In feminine signs, it conductive to a patient, wealth accumulating, dependable partner. She dies before the native: conscious at death time; foresees it. If the native accepts a bribe, he is not caught. Fortune from 26-36. First part of life is unhappy; if afflicted, later life.”
• Bepin Behari: “Rahu in the 8th house and Ketu in the 2nd attracts super-physical powers. Such individuals often display tremendous energy which they utilise to achieve extraordinary results. They make their mark on society. Under favourable planetary conditions they create a niche for themselves and may become greta scientists, exceptional police officers, politicians or doctors. If the individual is preoccupied with sense gratification, however, he or she may be drawn towards unapproved activities such as smuggling, drug trafficking or gambling. The results of Rahu in the8th are difficult to predict because the range of the unseen work which this house represents is very extensive. Whatever their achievements in life, this placement will lead to the sudden psychological transformation of these individuals.”
• Prash Trivedi: Rahu in the 8th house and Ketu in the 2nd “Confers long life, but Ketu in the 2nd is not considered good for maintaining a smooth financial situation throughout life unless Ketu is in Sagittarius or Pisces; but even then they will have to suffer substantial loss at least once in life. It gives peculiarities in the way the native handles money: miserly with small spending but carefree with big purchases. Gambling can be a major downfall of this placement: this is the worst nodal placement for luck in speculation, while feeling the desire to gamble. Extreme cases can see the native gamble on almost everything in life; including their own life. A lot of natives who squander ancestral property are born with this placement. This Ketu gives a wandering nature and pleasurable travels. Many renown travellers have this nodal placement. Since the native is not inclined to follow orthodox religious rituals he should strive to develop some personal philosophy in life. Ketu in the 2nd causes bitterness in family life, which requires patience on the natives part. The native may end up under the control of their life partner at some point. This Ketu can adda sarcastic tone to the voice and the native can be a bitter critic and use foul language. Rahu in the 8th promises legacies and wealth from the partner. At the very least the native can be forced to learn humility by accepting resources from others. This Rahu favours 8th house professions: scientists, researchers, explorers, adventurers, insurance agents, bankers, spies, detectives, writers of mystery stories, occultists and all kinds of employment involving old things. If working through its lower principle this Rahu can make the native commit some bad deeds similar to those of Rahu in the 2nd house. It’s a very dangerous placement as the dark side of the 8th house is a very destructive force. There is a thin line between the balanced use and the excessive use of 8th house energies. The native can totally neglect 2nd house affairs or handle them in a very peculiar manner. The native needs to control their speech. It can be better to communicate in writing as their speech will often be misunderstood. Optimism also needs to be cultivated as these natives can be overly pessimistic.”
• Author’s General Commentary on Rahu in 8th house: This is a very dangerous place for Rahu since his fascination leads a person thru the field of sex, death, catastrophe, guilt and transformation. They often like kinky or unusual sex and sexual partners. They can try all kinds of crazy things and still not be satisfied. They can become sex addicts with this (but we need to see more than this to confirm). They can take part in all kinds of risky behaviour and will likely cheat death several times before pushing their luck just a little too far. They may be obsessed with intimacy seeking to know what lies just below the surface. This can make them good researchers or detectives. Negative placements with this Rahu may cause them to stock their prey. They can be very sneaky and move around undetected.  Their focus will be on the wealth of others: their partners’ wealth, the value of trusts, the hunger for inheritance, or merely for easy unearned wealth. Sometimes these people marry rich, get a disappointing inheritance, or live off the money or trusts, but they might also be the one who merely leeches off their partner; much better at taking than giving. They can be good in emergency situations, but similar urges as those seen with Ketu in 6th come up here as they seek to gain advantage thru catastrophic circumstances, emergencies, secrets. And secrets are a big part of the 8th house. This goes along with research and detective work, but there are many other ways they might use the secrets they know for their own advantage. This can lead them to occult, astrology, tarot and other methods of divination. My teacher calls Rahu in 8th, the “wanderer.” Their fascination leads them to cross the bridge, go to the other side of the tracks, enter the forbidden forest, and go overseas. Since the 8th house is all about sudden events, it’s never long before their fascination has moved on to something else.
• Commentary: Fascinated by secret philosophies, hidden theories, taboo religious practices. But it’s these ideologies or dogmas they will bring the biggest fastest changes in your life. Rahu can make a person “wander” all over the world and follow many different belief systems through their life. One might need to keep an eye on their blood pressure.

Rahu in Purva Ashadha 9th house: 

• Phala Deepika: Rahu in 9th house “makes a person unfavourable in their speech (ie. overly critical). One becomes the headman of a community or village, mayor of a city and sinful in deeds.”
• Jataka Bharnam: Rahu in 9th house “makes a person irreligious but happy; roving and devoid of wealth. Wealth is lost, happiness from co-borns in lost, and one suffers pain in their body. Gives sudden attainment of wealth but father might face exceptional financial crisis. They person reforms religious law to suit his own needs, but he is religious. He openly opposes any kind of exploitation and outward hypocrisy in religion.”
• B.V. Raman: Rahu in the 9th house: “The native will have. A nagging and domineering wife. He will be impolite and misery, suffering from emaciation and generally inclined to loose morals. He will hate his father and revile God and religion. But he may become famous and acquire much wealth.”
• Chamatkar Chintamani: Rahu in the 9th house “The native is a scholar; accredited for his virtues; impressive in speech in an assembly; cultured and humane; veneration; belief and devotion in gods and sacred places. Gainful upbringing in his own family. The native is revered for his merit, learned, generous. Gives away useful things in alms; never leaving a job in the middle; perseverance; virtuous; keeping with family traditions; spotless reputation. Helps and supports his relatives; contented with partner. Affluent landlord and agriculturist. The native shows faith in religions other than his own. He is in want of truth, conduct, luck and wisdom. Much travelling, pauper, unfriendly to relative; some physical ailment. Chief of village or town. Vicious. Serving others. Sex with low women. This native has many attendants, prosperous, fortunate, little faith in religion, poor health, eloquent speaker, agreeable cordial with partner, affectionate, issueless, proud of his community, liar, speaks ill of his religion and is unmindful of his duty. If in Aries, Taurus, Gemini, Cancer, or Virgo: good reputation. Affliction is unfavourable; much travelling. This Rahu denotes mental sharpness and gain through educational, legal and religious affairs. Gain through voyages and foreign affairs. Highly intuitive. This Rahu is favourable in feminine signs. If in masculine signs, the native it the only son; has elder sisters only. It works as a maraka (death inflicting) for brothers. In choice of partner the native shows no respect for caste or creed, age or virginity if this Rahu is in (Air sign) Gemini, Libra, or Aquarius; authoritative. Respectful and affectionate partner if in fire sign. Rahu in feminine signs suggests a daughter is born first; a son may come in old age. Maraka (death inflicting) for sisters. Worships Hanuman. Brothers must live separately if they want gain and success.”
• Bepin Behari: “Rahu in the 9th house and Ketu in the 3rd produces a psychological storm which may be religious in nature. These individuals become charged with ideas that could seem idealistic, unconventional, and provocative to others. Rahu makes the individual absorbs in his or her thoughts, perhaps with some sympathy for others, but often without external demonstration of it, That may appear as if some superior spirit has taken possession of their personality which, under malefic planetary influences, could make them ruthless in executing their nefarious programmes. In large numbers of people, this placement of the nodes creates attraction towards religion, holy places, tantric rituals, and austerities — all with the intention of securing greater personal advantages. There is a gulf between the secret aspirations of these individuals and their external activities, which may make them insecure, temperamental, peevish, or irritable. Coordination between the hidden ambitions and aspiration for psychic power and their actual deeds may be difficult to achieve. But this is the stage where, with some guidance and luck, they can obtain much spiritual merit. They are well prepared for psychological metamorphosis which could radically change the direction of their life course.”
• Prash Trivedi: Rahu in the 9th house and Ketu in the 3rd: “These natives usually meet their destiny in a foreign land or through foreigners. The native usually believes in religious symbolism though not striating in the orthodox sense. The native is seen to concentrate on 9th house affairs: long journeys, philosophy, inner life, foreign influences, ethical disposition , higher mind, initiation and self realisation. It must not be misunderstood that the native will follow organised religion; he is more likely to develop a personal philosophy. Ketu in the 3rd house shows some sort of skill related to the 3rd house like writing, painting or other skills involving the hands, but Ketu usually requires some additional good conjunction or aspect to bring out these latent talents. Ketu is even more dangerous than Rahu for the live things related to 3rd house like younger siblings. An unhappy first half to life makes childhood a time not worth remembering. When poorly placed this Ketu is like a dog roaming the streets with much unnecessary and fruitless travels and wandering. Whether the native rises from their childhood scars asa saviour or a revengeful manic depends on the over all chart. Aspects from Jupiter of Ketu’s depositor can usually iron things out.”
• Author’s General Commentary on Rahu in 9th house: Rahu in the 9th house hungry for the big picture. They want faith and philosophy, they are often travellers going to places that are sacred to them. These pilgrimages are likely to be unusual like their beliefs; but they will be passionate about their beliefs often holding them regardless of any proof in the contrary. They are often insincere Hippocrates who often assume the role of priest, professor or father figure without having the correct credentials. Rahu makes expedient use of religion in this position and will claim to follow whichever path will get them what they want or elevate their social standing. They often feel as though they are uniquely positioned to expound the higher truths despite their confusion on the topic. They can take on the external image of spirituality much easier than they can acquire the internal feeling of faith. Of course this kind of spiritual posturing can lead to a “holier than you” attitude. This can be a very political or ideological position as one seeks out the winning doctrine. The actual ideology doesn’t matter so much as the benefits that can be gained by professing that ideology.  There is likely to be something unusual about the father figure and it’s possible there will even be some confusion over who one’s real father really is. Guru’s and mentors will be unusual in some way: often false prophets or fake gurus.

Rahu in Purva Ashadha 10th house:

• Phala Deepika: Rahu in 10th house makes “a person reputed, with limited children and busy with other peoples business. He does not do any good act and is fearless.”
• Jataka Bharnam: Rahu in 10th house “native is devoid of happiness from father, devoid of wealth, destroyer of enemies, suffers windy diseases and gets injury from conveyance. The native will turn towards mean base deeds, addiction, intoxication, relations with several women to satisfy their lust. Profit from trade, much litigation, trouble in foreign countries, habit of stealing, lack of moral decency, and given to pride. Rahu in Pisces can be the cause of much pain and trouble. Auspicious influences can give bathing in holy rivers (Ganga), and lack of malefic influence may influence them to perform yagna. The native is exceptionally skilful, dexterous in trade or professional activities, uses any means to remove obstacles that come in his way and he does not pay heed to the sanctity or purity of means. For these reasons others take special care doing business with the native.” 
• B.V. Raman: Rahu in the 10th house: “There is a tendency to lust after windows. He will be a skilled artist with a flare for poetry and literature. He travels widely and is learned. He will be famous and engage himself in business. He will have e limited issues. He will be bold and somewhat adventurous as he commits many sins.”
• Chamatkar Chintamani: Rahu in the 10th house “Spends on intoxicants. A wrong-doer; trouble from people; sleepless nights; vain; living in the company of aliens and foreigners; sex with young, beautiful and charming women; getting maximum pleasure. The native pays more money due to his own negligence; find more comfort and pleasure in the company of non-aryans; discontented with own relatives and father; love and sex with widows and wicked women. Gets help and support of the strong; trouble through father. He is bilious; clever but tense and can enjoy immovable property if this in Pisces. He is sensual extravagant, affluent, killer of the enemy, fickle, fond of poetry and drama, battle; migratory, successful in business. If this Rahu is exalted the native is a ruler. The native is a clever thief, characterless, quarrelsome, dishonest, chattering, miserable, inert, indifferent, unfortunate, living abroad, unsteady, vicious, He has few sons, is helpful and fearless and faces danger from conveyance. There is danger and trouble for parents and brother. The native is a governor; minister of chief of the army; brave, wise, wealthy. Honour and recognition from government if in Gemini or Virgo. Adverse in other signs. Bathing in the holy Ganges; if not afflicted this native performs Yahya. The native achieves name and fame; status through hard work and skill. Favourable in feminine signs; unfavourable in masculine signs. Afflicted Sun, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, or Rahu in this house denotes sorrow through mother, father, brother or son. This house is responsible for son as its the 12th (family or self-undoing) from the 11th (gains) and 2nd (wealth and maraka) from the 9th (fate and fortune). Rahu in masculine sign denote links with widows, pride, talkative, separation. Success through service in police, railways, insurance, bank, etc. Untrustworthy, trouble fro parents, one other them dies when the native is a child. In feminine sign the early life is full of hardships; loss of patrimony; later life is blessed with wealth; offspring; name and honour. Large number of sons, success in lawsuits, skill in writing and publishing. The native is social, affectionate, philanthrope by nature. Does not tolerate hinderances. Danger to the mother in the 32 year; to father in the 7th; to patrimony in the 8th. Fortune in the 36 year, public honour and respect in the 42 year.”
• Bepin Behari: “Rahu in the 10th house and Ketu in the 4th impels an individual  certainly to affect society in which he or she lives. These natives are able to concretise abstract ideals, channelling their inspiration to socially useful purposes. They enable society to experience new truths, new visions, new sensitivity, or even new or radically different patterns of living. Rahu in the 10th house produces much social interaction with substantial gains. These experiences vivify the psycho-mental capabilities of the person but may make him or her somewhat unstable. The achievements and frustrations which inevitably both arise during their social and professional interactions teach them a sense of detachment. At this stage the ego is ready for psychic transformation, leading from a sense of utter desolation to a level of being at which they begin to surrender themselves completely to the unknown universal spirit.”
• Prash Trivedi: Rahu in the 10th house and Ketu in the 4th: “This placement subjects the native to various extremes in life. The first half is usually full of unpleasant or psychic experiences. The 4th ouse relates to childhood (3 – 14 years old) which makes this the most difficult period leaving some scars on the natives psychological make-up. Mishandling on the part of parents, peers or elders in this period results in psychological disorders which influence their later years. With a strong Ketu they come out of these experiences even stronger. They will have a keen insight into the subconscious and a piercing and penetrating intellect. A weak Ketu will cause them to succumb to outside influences. Psychic powers are heightened with a strong Ketu in 4th, but a strong personality is required to harness these powers for the benefit of all. The fourth house is directly related with the universal mother principle and the precedes of Ketu can connect the native to the wellspring of wisdom and the core forces off creation. Relationship with parents is not usually very smooth but there can be a strong connection with one of the grandparents. Although one may receive financial support from them there are always misunderstandings. A strong psychic contact with the mother is seen, but it might not be very pleasant because of the extreme involved. This combination experiences the generation gap to the fullest degree. The sooner the native is separated from their parents, the better it is for both. This is a wonderful placement for making ones mark on the world. It gives the ability to head large organisations or undertakings. Many agree that this is the best placement for Rahu. The closer this Rahu is to the midheaven the more power it has to help the native. They are especially favoured in the second half of life  with a strong sense of purpose and destiny. Ketu in the moksha house gives an innate understanding of the primeval forces which create and sustain the manifest universe. In younger souls it gives an emotional and hypersensitive disposition. One has to check the excessive emotionalism and take a more practical approach to achieving one’s goals. An analogy to keep in mind is that the “earth needs to be watered just enough to raise the crops; more water leads to flooding and less water to drought. Rahu is said to bring positive changes in life at age 19, 38 & 42. This combination often requires sacrificing private life for public life. The native should guard against neglecting the 4th house affairs or else there is very little inner peace and contentment even after all the fame and glory. 10th house Rahu gives leadership qualities which can be used for person aggrandisement or for the benefit of one’s circle of influence. The presence of Ketu in the 4th gives strong attachment and knowledge of ones roots but Rahu in 10th makes it in an all inclusive manner.”
• Author’s General Commentary on Rahu in 10th house: This is the third upachaya house that Rahu is said to do well in. His fascination for leadership is very good at climbing the ladder while skipping a few steps in between. They tend to get positions of leadership without following the usual stepwise process. Of course they get in over their heads, but they also learn fast. There can be all kinds of disruptions in their career, but their ambition rarely falters. They will likely be seen as outcasts in their career and there are likely to be some stains upon their reputation. They could achieve the top spot for some time, but they usually fall before they are ready. They can also be the co-worker who seems to assume the role of the boss even if they really don’t have any legitimate claim to authority. But some people will also be known for their taboo or boundary breaking activity. What exactly they do can be hard to see through the smoke and mirrors, but they will fascinate people by their actions. Since social reputation is important to them, they seek to be seen and known and have little concern for home and comfort. They will easily take a job transfer for a better position. They may work irregular hours or face other irregularities in the office. These are the people who are also likely to abuse their position of power somehow, or perhaps they will merely sow confusion.   They can suffer from problems related to the skeletal system or the knees.

Rahu in Purva Ashadha 11th house:

• Phala Deepika: Rahu in 11th house “grants the native prosperity, few children, longevity and ear ailments.”
• Jataka Bharnam: Rahu in 11th house “native gains all kinds of things: happiness, honour from the king, clothes, gold, quadrupeds and victory. Wealth comes from trade relations with foreigners and this person will use any means to increase their profit. One may suffer diseases of the ear, difficulty with progeny, and elder brothers health is likely to suffer. Such a native is fond  of investing in shares, speculations, gambling, lottery and races.”
• B.V. Raman: Rahu in the 11th house: “The native distinguished himself in the army or navy, will become famous, wealthy and learned; will have few children, will suffer from ear affictions, and will earn much wealth in foreign countries.”
• Chamatkar Chintamani: Rahu in the 11th house “Gains wealth through aliens and non-aryans; lives arrogantly with attendants. Why should the go to a foreign land when he is not short of anything in his own? A friend of the knave and a grievous wrong-doer. Cheats others of their money. Blessed with sons. The native gains from people of an alien race. Keeps friendships with the wise. Blessed with sons. The native is not a man of status; an idler, in dept and quarrelsome. He is valiant, rich , learned, sensual, poetic. He is dark complexioned, handsome, sweet, living abroad, learned, unsteady, shameless. He gets honour and gain through government; wealth; ornaments; garments; cattle wealth; conveyance; success and victory be long living but with ear trouble. Theer will be trouble with family and sons but will be prosperous; healthy and stout with a fortunate partner. Success and gain through friends, but speculation, race, lottery, and games of chance do not pat. Trouble through business and industry and is under debt; and get honour and gets though state [sic] if this Rahu is in own or exalted sign. Favourable in feminine signs. Trouble through sons if in masculine signs. He is over ambitious, extravagant; accepts bribes and is caught; greedy; a cheat; illogical; loss through friends; and a series of misfortunes. First child is a daughter and long after a soon is born; many more daughters if in feminine signs. Faithful friends who are astrologers of experts in mantra. Success in both business and service. Death of elder brother becomes a burden. Sudden gain of wealth in the 42nd year. Sart of life at 28. Marriage at 27.”
• Bepin Behari: “Rahu in the 11th house and Ketu in the 5th is very powerful. It enables the person concerned to acquire physical and social conveniences and power. The are often members of the social elite. An aura or righteousness and morality surrounds them. In materially inclined persons these impulses are favourable for the acquisition of wealth, social and political status, and opportunities for disseminating spiritual and occult knowledge. Opportunities like these come in profession and may upset their personalities, making them vain, egotistical, and self opinionated. If they maintain their psychological balance, however, they may explore undiscovered laws of nature, clearly describe latent motives of others, and extensively externalise their own inner powers.”
• Prash Trivedi: Rahu in the 11th house and Ketu in the 5th: “The analogy of the phoenix rising from the ashes usually holds true for natives with this placement. As often the case when Ketu is in the first half of the chart, the early life of the native is not very pleasant. Breaks in formal education as they don’t like it and may only go through it out of a sense of social obligation. When Ketu I strong here, they will have a penetrating and piercing intellect as Ketu’s disposition for learning is usually internalised. I have noticed that they usually pursue some form of mysticism either in an accepted way or purely personal. If the ascendant lord conjuncts this Ketu the native will choose platonic love over other forms. There is some sort of frustrations and disappointment encountered with love in adolescent years that makes the native harbour and negative feeling towards love in general. Ketu in 5th is not auspicious for having and raising progeny unless the fifth house is exceptionally strong and Jupiter is aspecting. In charts of female it denoted difficult child birth. Rahu in the 11th is supposed to fulfil most of ones desires in this lifetime. This is not always true and when it does happen, it’s late in life, after ones 40s. This Rahu makes the native ambitious and there is a distinct frustration noticed when their aims are not achieved. 11th house affairs — goals, aspirations, elder brothers, sources of gain, philanthropy, idealism, friends, sharing, group relationships, realisation of objectives — get highlighted. Elder brothers, if they exist, are a source of gain and vice versa provided other influences allow for it. Rahu in the 11th is a great bestower of material gains, but this has to be supported by other combinations in the chart. It is the natives karma to understand and work out the opposites of 5th & 11th like self consciousness & group consciousness, acquisition or resources & sharing of resources, personal ambition & humanitarian perspective. Friendship is a keynote of the lives of these natives, and any unnecessary selfishness needs to be avoided as those who can help him might put out if they see him acting in a selfish manner. Natives with this placement acquire a fortune by devious means and squander it is quickly on undesirable expenditures.”
• Author’s General Commentary on Rahu in 11th house: This is the 4th upachaya house that Rahu excels in. As the house of gain and profit, Rahu injects a strong dose of greed. The profit motive has become the great illusion for these people. This can be a very financially rewarding position for Rahu. Money money money everywhere and they don’t mind bending the rules to make it. They want more than anything to appear as a success, especially financially successful (Rahu in 2nd house has some similarities); they want to be seen as someone who has achieved their hopes and dreams in life. But is you ask them about their hopes and goals in life their answer will be unclear. They don’t really know what they want, or what they want is some strange unusual thing that can never be achieved. Rahu in Libra here might say they want world peace without having any plan to get it, but at some point they might just make the claim that they have achieved it. In any case, they will have the power to fascinate people with their hopes and dreams. The network is found in the 11th house. This gives Rahu a lot of strength here as his obsessive ways and technological acumen work very well with the massive source of network associates. These days in network interconnectivity it’s a very powerful place for Rahu. People will be fascinated by ones network of friends. They will be an unusual sort who feel entitled to challenge boundaries. They can be very good community organisers. Problems to the lower leg or irregularities in the nervous system or connective tissue can cause hurdles in a person’s life.

Rahu in Purva Ashadha 12th house:

• Phala Deepika: Rahu in 12th house “makes a person always intent upon committing sinful deeds secretly, they spend a lot and suffer from ailments like dropsy etc.”
• Jataka Bharnam: Rahu 12th house gives “disease of the eyes, problems with the feet (especially left eye and left foot), makes him a deceitful trickster, affectionate and loving, having affection for wicked people, and giving service to ordinary people.” “This is not auspicious for economic development and one spend much of ones time in unproductive activity. There is the possibility of difficulties in travels, and the natives wife may be afflicted with illness.”
• B.V. Raman: Rahu in 12th house: “The native will be prosperous and immoral, but of helpful nature. He will have eye troubles.”
• Chamatkar Chintamani: Rahu in the 12th house “The native is miserable, sharp pain in ribs. However hard he may work he gets no success or gain; rather he suffers losses. Friend of the wicked and enemy of the good. At last he succeeds in his desires and ambitions. This native is very humble, suffers from acute bilious pain in the chest and heart. With best effort he cannot modify his early life, later he is more fruitful. This native is quarrelsome, idle, a debtor, cunning, immodest, rich. Benevolent, ailments the eyes, wound in feet, a slur on the family, wastes away his time and energy, can meet his demand if he stays in one place. There will be much travelling, separation from wife and family, ugly and shabby. He is dropsy, robbed by lowly tribals and repents after loosing temper. The native is inert, weak, hostile to relatives, a cheat, ill-spent money. This native is very handsome, prosperous, has few sons, vicious. Pain, trouble and punishment are indicated. If in Gemini, Sagittarius or Pisces, gain through social affairs, good for spiritualism, birth unnatural, salvation. Very favourable in own sign or exalted (Taurus, Gemini, Aquarius): Success in occultism, gain by secret methods and unexpected sources. If afflicted there will be loss of property. In masculine signs there will be affliction to the eyes, few offspring, two marriages, and dissatisfaction with ones own wife, leading to debauchery and long separations. In feminine signs one will be happy with their partner, two marriages, many good offspring, normal sight, early life is unsteady, journey to the north for a living, fortunate abroad, industrious, glorious, both income and expenditure are great. He is ambitious, generous, has lofty ideals and is fond of literature and social occasions. Interest in Vedanta drives him to asceticism. Loss of one of the parents by the 12th year; gain of patrimony by the 16th; a living established by 21 or 22; wealth and fortune by 35; if first marriage is early the second will come by 21, or later, between 32 to 36.”
• Bepin Behari: “Rahu in the 12th house and Ketu in the 6th produces an unusual and powerful impact, providing much psychic power and enormous physical strength to carry out a special mission in life. Sometimes these individuals are found living in abnormal or trying living conditions, but they produce extraordinary results. These results may be highly propitious or socially undesirable; this depends on the disposition of Rahu in the particular chart. These individuals are great organisers and leaders of large numbers of people. Their leadership may be along bizarre, abnormal, or non-conventional lines. When their psychic faculties weaken, these people feel baffled. It is of utmost importance that they are guided properly so that they can take advantage of their opportunities to gain deeper understanding of the laws of nature using their powers for constructive purpose.”
• Prash Trivedi: Rahu in the 12th house and Ketu in the 6th: “This placement oscillates between opposite more often than other placements. There can be a thin line separating insanity & genius; paranoia &  self discovery. This can be a difficult combination to handle and there is usually a sense of fatness to life. Rahu highlights 12th house things: receptivity, negation, seclusion, destiny, past lives, karma, escapism, excessive indulgence, luxury, losses, expenses, charity, foreign affairs, limitations, imprisonment, connectivity with subtle planes, fantasy, paranoia, subconscious mind, dreams, visions, sorrow, renunciation, liberation. The 12th house becomes the main field of activity in the natives life and even very evolved souls have difficulty balancing this combination. It can give a taste for all kinds of intoxications, smoking is common, There is a desire to completely immerse the ego in the sea of illusions resulting from excessive indulgence. Usually a strong ascendant is the key to minimising the negative effects of this placement. It can give the native a taste for the supernatural and allow him to look far beyond the material realm of existence. It can also give knowledge of the ocean of Maya in which the divine play of life in played. In my view, half the problem is solved if the native can keep away from all types of drugs and alcohol and they should remain equally wary of blindly following religious orders or other types of institutions. Such natives have a tendency to end up as doctors, nurses, healers, mediums, preachers, counsellors, lawyers, social workers, politicians, detectives, law enforcement. Rahu in the 12th also gives some foreign connection relates to the significations of its depositor or plants associated with it. Ketu in the 6th is supposed to be a powerful force giving worldly riches and power. There is better chance of this coming true is Jupiter is associated with Ketu in some way. These natives tend to expect too much from those working under them. They are not good at taking orders and do not do well in 9 – 5 jobs. Independent enterprise is better for their mental well being. These natives should avoid making too much of 6th house things like diseases, servants, enemies as there is a tendency to unnecessarily dwell on these topics. Most strange diseases and disorders can be found with this Ketu. They usually have no depth of enemies either by their own making or conferred by providence. How they deal with enemies differs based on other things in the chart, but diplomacy is not in the sphere of Ketu’s expertise. ^th house Ketu has very definite ideas about work ethics, purity and morality and there is a tendency to pass judgement and impose one’s ideas on others. Their strong will power helps them achieve their desires sooner or later; but they must guard against over extending their energy. Tehy need to strike a balance between 6th house and 12th house.”
• Author’s General Commentary on Rahu in 12th house: As the house of loss Rahu is fairly happy here since everything he eats passes thru without satisfaction. This becomes the plight of this natives expenditure: lots of wastage and little satisfaction. At best, money will be spent on strange unusual things but still they will not get to enjoy them. It will be much the same as purchasing smoke, which is actually indicated by this Rahu: expenses on things that go up in smoke. Rahu’s sign and sign lord will, of course, have a lot of say in these matters. The 12th house is also the final moksha house and it’s the most well known house for liberation so these people may be fascinated by the freedom of liberation and are unlikely to be encumbered by stuff. They can just give things away and lose everything. They cannot get enough loss and they experience a lot of this; they will break the boundaries of proper expenditure. Much of it will go to outcasts or be spent on improper things. One of the nice things about Rahu in the 12th house is that those shadowy expenses mostly remain private; that whole Rahuvian shadow side remains hidden, not out of guilt that comes from the 8th house hidden, but because the things of the 12th house are essentially lost in the universal ocean. We also see a person’s inner quest for spirituality in the 12th house (the 9th house has more to do with our external expressions of spirituality). With Rahu here they are fascinated and hungry for the inner spiritual experience. As the 4th from the 9th it is the foundation for the external expressions of spirituality. They will build an unusual foundation for their beliefs, or perhaps merely a foreign foundation that can be unclear. But dreams, fantasies and imagination are also a part of the 12th house and these things don’t have to follow any protocol; the 12th house is already unreal so Rahu works pretty good here. This Rahu can be good for the imagination, dreaming big, really big, and having unusual or even taboo fantasies. It’s likely that others will not see these 12th house things in a person clearly so there may be some fascination generated in the public about their foreign travels or getaways. These kinds of things will certainly be unique. The most obvious thing about Rahu in the 12th house is travel: foreign travel or just getting away from it all. They can experience much solitude or isolation in life. And it’s likely they will seek advantage from qualities relation to foreignness, dreams, meditation. But further fascination could be there for hospitals, retreats, prisons, asylums, and the rest of these places (or people relating to the places) represented in the 12th house. The deformity on the body is most likely to occur on the foot.

• Phala Deepika: Ketu in 1st house “makes a person always suffer from ingratitude, remain unhappy, and carry tales against others. He is an outcaste, fallen from his position, disabled, keeping company with the wicked.”
• Jataka Bharnam: Ketu in 1st house “native is a maker of cotton threads, sickly and diseased, distressed, troubled with fear, worried about his wife, agitated, perturbed, and suffering from windy diseases. Head aches and brain disease is possible, suffering caused by wicked people.”
• B.V. Raman: Ketu in the 1st house: “Psychic powers are likely. It denotes a weak constitution and an emaciated figure. Instability and deceitfulness may influence the character. Morbid imagination, strange appetites, tendency to excitability and wandering disposition became pronounced. Married life will be unhappy unless there are other favourable configurations.”
• Chamatkar Chintamani: Ketu in the 1st house: “Constant distress and anguish through relatives; fear and anxiety through the wicked. Trouble from wife and sons etc. Confusion, biliousness and rheumatism. He remains perturbed and his wife suffers from restlessness and stomach problem. The native is sad, inert, selfish, ugly, and foolish. Death of wife and trouble to the arm. He is seen as a liar, ungrateful, wicked, spiritless, dismissed from service, afraid of sex. Trouble for maternal uncle. He faces losses, scandals, danger to the face and eyes, and he has a short life. If in Capricorn or Aquarius the native is blessed with property and noble sons.”
• Bepin Behari: “Rahu in the 7th house and Ketu in the 1st may produce restrictions in ones relationships. Psychologically the person can be self0-centred; socially, he is sometimes lonely. He expects the world to conform to his terms while he himself is reluctant to compromise. Such individuals may find partners in life, wether business , social life, or in marriage, not working in harmony with them. Enduring amiability or happiness are difficult to establish. Marital problems do not necessarily arise due to any lack of desire to achieve harmony and adjustment, but could be caused by illness, voluntary or involuntary separate living arrangements, divorce. Such experiences may lead the individual to extreme degrees of loneliness; he feels no one understands or appreciates him. These people have a tendency to relapse into seclusion, to keep away from others physically as well as in thought. When they begin to develop self-awareness, they then find themselves well prepared to undertake severe austerities and to assume a spiritual course in life.”
• Prash Trivedi: Rahu in the 7th house and Ketu in the 1st: “The native is pronounced worldly wise even when they are functioning on an otherworldly plane. Rahu in the 7th takes good care on ones social standing between the years of 24-42 unless there are overriding negative indications. The spouse is usually more mature than the native and a rise of fortune takes place after marriage. If Rahu is working through his lower principle than the motive behind these relationships is questionable and balance is not maintained causing misunderstandings, break-ups and abuse at various levels. If the nodal axis is afflicted these natives will carry out the mindless sexuality we see in modern media. Balance in sexuality is absent allowing the darker side to take over. They often enjoy vocations dealing with people like counsellors, psychologists, management experts, project coordinators etc. They usually start something on their own as they would rather be boss of their own small private setup than work under someone in a bigger set up. Ketu in the ascendant usually adds some psychic dimension to the personality and gives a self effacing nature. An aspect from Jupiter will solve 90% of the problems that can arise from this placement. Natives are usually short in height and have an out of ordinary appearance if Ketu is close to the ascendant degrees. The ascendant lord needs to be well placed to keep these natives from being too under-confident in regards to appearance and personality. An exaggerated self-consciousness may be apparent. Ketu in the 1st is also supposed to give low appetite and peculiar tastes in foods. They can internalise energy and develop along spiritual lines. Spiritual transformation usually takes place in later years. The native has to be careful about depending on relationships to drive his or her sense of self.”

Ketu in Purva Ashadha 2nd house for Scorpio ascendant: 

• Phala Deepika: Ketu in 2nd house “deprives the native of good education and riches. His language is foul and he has a sinister look. He depends on others for food.”
• Jataka Bharnam: Ketu in 2nd house “brings loss of wealth, opposition against own men, disease of the mouth. Loss of wealth due to punishment of the king. Loss of grain due top theft and birds. The native get refuge with great difficulty in his time of need. If Ketu is in his own sign, or sign of a benefic friend, the native gets very much happiness.” According to BPHS Ketu is exalted in Taurus, moola trikona in Cancer, and ruler of Virgo. Phala Deepika say Ketu is strong in the later half of Taurus, Virgo, Sagittarius, Pisces.
• B.V. Raman: Ketu in the 2nd house: “Bad speaker. Loss through fraud and deception. There will be liability in financial affairs. Success in spiritualism, navigation, mystical arts, hospital etc. mat be expected.”
• Chamatkar Chintamani: Ketu in the 2nd house: “Perturbed about his wealth lest the government should take it away as penalty. Worried about food grains; if that support should be snatched away there will be strife and opposition with friends and family. Not a word of respect or hospitality escapes his mouth. If in Aries, Gemini or Virgo this Ketu is most favourable. The native is always mentally agitated, losses by government, hostility with relatives, ineffective speech in an assembly, harsh and critical speech. His supporters find themselves in trouble. If in Aries, Gemini, or Virgo, or influenced by benefics there will be much happiness and wealth. Loss of wealth, association with low people, wickedness, unhappiness and misfortune. Suffers from want of education, casts vile looks, is dependent, and has trouble with his mouth. If in own sign of associated with friendly planet they can be sweet and soft-spoken.”
• Bepin Behari: “Rahu in the 8th house and Ketu in the 2nd attracts super-physical powers. Such individuals often display tremendous energy which they utilise to achieve extraordinary results. They make their mark on society. Under favourable planetary conditions they create a niche for themselves and may become greta scientists, exceptional police officers, politicians or doctors. If the individual is preoccupied with sense gratification, however, he or she may be drawn towards unapproved activities such as smuggling, drug trafficking or gambling. The results of Rahu in the8th are difficult to predict because the range of the unseen work which this house represents is very extensive. Whatever their achievements in life, this placement will lead to the sudden psychological transformation of these individuals.”
• Prash Trivedi: Rahu in the 8th house and Ketu in the 2nd “Confers long life, but Ketu in the 2nd is not considered good for maintaining a smooth financial situation throughout life unless Ketu is in Sagittarius or Pisces; but even then they will have to suffer substantial loss at least once in life. It gives peculiarities in the way the native handles money: miserly with small spending but carefree with big purchases. Gambling can be a major downfall of this placement: this is the worst nodal placement for luck in speculation, while feeling the desire to gamble. Extreme cases can see the native gamble on almost everything in life; including their own life. A lot of natives who squander ancestral property are born with this placement. This Ketu gives a wandering nature and pleasurable travels. Many renown travellers have this nodal placement. Since the native is not inclined to follow orthodox religious rituals he should strive to develop some personal philosophy in life. Ketu in the 2nd causes bitterness in family life, which requires patience on the natives part. The native may end up under the control of their life partner at some point. This Ketu can adda sarcastic tone to the voice and the native can be a bitter critic and use foul language. Rahu in the 8th promises legacies and wealth from the partner. At the very least the native can be forced to learn humility by accepting resources from others. This Rahu favours 8th house professions: scientists, researchers, explorers, adventurers, insurance agents, bankers, spies, detectives, writers of mystery stories, occultists and all kinds of employment involving old things. If working through its lower principle this Rahu can make the native commit some bad deeds similar to those of Rahu in the 2nd house. It’s a very dangerous placement as the dark side of the 8th house is a very destructive force. There is a thin line between the balanced use and the excessive use of 8th house energies. The native can totally neglect 2nd house affairs or handle them in a very peculiar manner. The native needs to control their speech. It can be better to communicate in writing as their speech will often be misunderstood. Optimism also needs to be cultivated as these natives can be overly pessimistic.”

Ketu in Purva Ashadha 3rd house: 

• Phala Deepika: Ketu in 3rd house “promotes longevity, strength, wealth and fame. The native lives happy with his wife and enjoys good food. He loses a brother.”
• Jataka Bharnam: Ketu in 3rd house “brings about the destruction of the natives enemies, disputes and quarrels, gains of wealth, a luxurious life, obtainment of grandeur, dignity and an increase in energy. They also see the destruction of their own men and pain in their arm. This Ketu generally give auspicious effects. Vigour and valour will rise up very quickly. But they will have a lot of worries. If this Ketu is exalted of in own sign the native get fear, agitation and happiness.”
• B.V. Raman: Ketu in the 3rd house “Strong and adventurous, but funky. Disturbs the mind with hallucinations.” During the dasha period of Ketu “enemies will be destroyed, becomes well-versed in music and dance. Generally the period will be a favourable one.”
• Chamatkar Chintamani: Ketu in the 3rd house: “The native kills his enemies. Useless and fruitless altercations and discussions. Gets prosperity and shows smartness, and has sexual affairs in great measure. Loss of friends; pain in the arms; anxiety and fear due to misunderstandings and needless worry. Affluent, sensual, sharp. If in own sign or exalted this Ketu grants much happiness, skilfulness, long life, fame, fortunate partner, tasty food. Fear and loss through friends; uneasiness and fear through the community and family and is adulterous with enemy women. This native is patient, brave, generous. Weak Ketu denies happiness. In Leo or Sagittarius there will be heart trouble, deafness, painful wound in the shoulder. If in Pisces he will be an expert spiritualist. Debilitated Ketu bring mental anxiety, trouble with brethren and neighbours and unprofitable journeys.” 
• Bepin Behari: “Rahu in the 9th house and Ketu in the 3rd produces a psychological storm which may be religious in nature. These individuals become charged with ideas that could seem idealistic, unconventional, and provocative to others. Rahu makes the individual absorbs in his or her thoughts, perhaps with some sympathy for others, but often without external demonstration of it, That may appear as if some superior spirit has taken possession of their personality which, under malefic planetary influences, could make them ruthless in executing their nefarious programmes. In large numbers of people, this placement of the nodes creates attraction towards religion, holy places, tantric rituals, and austerities — all with the intention of securing greater personal advantages. There is a gulf between the secret aspirations of these individuals and their external activities, which may make them insecure, temperamental, peevish, or irritable. Coordination between the hidden ambitions and aspiration for psychic power and their actual deeds may be difficult to achieve. But this is the stage where, with some guidance and luck, they can obtain much spiritual merit. They are well prepared for psychological metamorphosis which could radically change the direction of their life course.”
• Prash Trivedi: Rahu in the 9th house and Ketu in the 3rd: “These natives usually meet their destiny in a foreign land or through foreigners. The native usually believes in religious symbolism though not striating in the orthodox sense. The native is seen to concentrate on 9th house affairs: long journeys, philosophy, inner life, foreign influences, ethical disposition , higher mind, initiation and self realisation. It must not be misunderstood that the native will follow organised religion; he is more likely to develop a personal philosophy. Ketu in the 3rd house shows some sort of skill related to the 3rd house like writing, painting or other skills involving the hands, but Ketu usually requires some additional good conjunction or aspect to bring out these latent talents. Ketu is even more dangerous than Rahu for the live things related to 3rd house like younger siblings. An unhappy first half to life makes childhood a time not worth remembering. When poorly placed this Ketu is like a dog roaming the streets with much unnecessary and fruitless travels and wandering. Whether the native rises from their childhood scars asa saviour or a revengeful manic depends on the over all chart. Aspects from Jupiter of Ketu’s depositor can usually iron things out.”

Ketu in Purva Ashadha 4th house:

• Phala Deepika: Ketu in 4th house “destroys land, vehicle, mother and happiness. He is made to leave his native place and is made to live in a foreign land at the mercy of others.”
• Jataka Bharnam: Ketu in 4th house “gives loss of happiness from mother and friends, losses through the father and they have no brothers. If Ketu is in own or exalted sign they get happiness for a short time, but remains full of worries and anxiety. If this Ketu is afflicted by additional malefic the mother suffers greatly and one has disputes over land. They live in an atmosphere of quarrels and disputes.”
• B.V. Raman: Ketu in the 4th house “Will be deprived of mother, properties and happiness; lives in foreign place. There will be exceptional experiences at the end of life. There will be reversals and sudden changes.”
• Chamatkar Chintamani: Ketu in the 4th house: “Never gets and gain or favour from mother or friends. Loss of patrimony. Does not stay long in his house, and if he does stay, he suffers from nervousness. Benefits through brethren and relatives if in own sign (Pisces) or exalted (Sagittarius). He always criticises others; speaks ill of them and develops much unpleasantness and misunderstandings; quarrels with parents. He is dependent and suffers a loss of agricultural land, loss through father. He proves unfit for the assembly, experiences death of the mother; is valiant; truth-loving; soft and sweet and opulent. If in Scorpio or Leo he gets support from parents and friends. If debilitated there is loss of wealth, travelling, ailing mother, trouble from step-mother. If exalted there is Raja Yoga and gain of conveyance. Gain is sudden if in Sagittarius or Pisces, but it unlucky for immovable property and people will consider him contemptible due to his over-critical approach. He faced danger of poisoning, is thin and lean; bilious; indulges in ungainly controversy. Other effects are loss or confusion with land and property; inheritances; jeopardised family honour and credit; great disturbance in the lives of ancestors; much family strife and discord.”
• Bepin Behari: “Rahu in the 10th house and Ketu in the 4th impels an individual  certainly to affect society in which he or she lives. These natives are able to concretise abstract ideals, channelling their inspiration to socially useful purposes. They enable society to experience new truths, new visions, new sensitivity, or even new or radically different patterns of living. Rahu in the 10th house produces much social interaction with substantial gains. These experiences vivify the psycho-mental capabilities of the person but may make him or her somewhat unstable. The achievements and frustrations which inevitably both arise during their social and professional interactions teach them a sense of detachment. At this stage the ego is ready for psychic transformation, leading from a sense of utter desolation to a level of being at which they begin to surrender themselves completely to the unknown universal spirit.”
• Prash Trivedi: Rahu in the 10th house and Ketu in the 4th: “This placement subjects the native to various extremes in life. The first half is usually full of unpleasant or psychic experiences. The 4th ouse relates to childhood (3 – 14 years old) which makes this the most difficult period leaving some scars on the natives psychological make-up. Mishandling on the part of parents, peers or elders in this period results in psychological disorders which influence their later years. With a strong Ketu they come out of these experiences even stronger. They will have a keen insight into the subconscious and a piercing and penetrating intellect. A weak Ketu will cause them to succumb to outside influences. Psychic powers are heightened with a strong Ketu in 4th, but a strong personality is required to harness these powers for the benefit of all. The fourth house is directly related with the universal mother principle and the precedes of Ketu can connect the native to the wellspring of wisdom and the core forces off creation. Relationship with parents is not usually very smooth but there can be a strong connection with one of the grandparents. Although one may receive financial support from them there are always misunderstandings. A strong psychic contact with the mother is seen, but it might not be very pleasant because of the extreme involved. This combination experiences the generation gap to the fullest degree. The sooner the native is separated from their parents, the better it is for both. This is a wonderful placement for making ones mark on the world. It gives the ability to head large organisations or undertakings. Many agree that this is the best placement for Rahu. The closer this Rahu is to the midheaven the more power it has to help the native. They are especially favoured in the second half of life  with a strong sense of purpose and destiny. Ketu in the moksha house gives an innate understanding of the primeval forces which create and sustain the manifest universe. In younger souls it gives an emotional and hypersensitive disposition. One has to check the excessive emotionalism and take a more practical approach to achieving one’s goals. An analogy to keep in mind is that the “earth needs to be watered just enough to raise the crops; more water leads to flooding and less water to drought. Rahu is said to bring positive changes in life at age 19, 38 & 42. This combination often requires sacrificing private life for public life. The native should guard against neglecting the 4th house affairs or else there is very little inner peace and contentment even after all the fame and glory. 10th house Rahu gives leadership qualities which can be used for person aggrandisement or for the benefit of one’s circle of influence. The presence of Ketu in the 4th gives strong attachment and knowledge of ones roots but Rahu in 10th makes it in an all inclusive manner.”

Ketu in Purva Ashadha 5th house:

• Phala Deepika: Ketu in 5th house “makes the person suffer the loss of children, stomach ailments, haunted by evil spirits. They are evil minded, wicked and sinful.”
• Jataka Bharnam: Ketu in 5th house “causes wounds to the stomach, from windy disease or from falling, and surgical procedure may be necessary. The person is dear to siblings, has a righteous mind, few children and is wealthy strong, and vigorous. They make quick decisions, ideas flash in their mind. Favourably placed this Ketu can bring great luck, gain through shares or lottery.”
• B.V. Raman: Ketu in the 5th house “Loss of children and rouble in the stomach; strange and peculiar experiences in connection with the emotions and feelings. Later in life they will have an inclination towards spirituality.” Afflictions to this Ketu “gives criminal tendencies. The person lacks even a sense of shame when provoked and usually possesses a vindictive nature. The person lacks even the human touch between one or two of his children. If Venus joins this Ketu the may opt for platonic love. If afflicted by Mars, dangers are treated and the family will be extinguished.”
• Chamatkar Chintamani: Ketu in the 5th house: “Brothers face repeated danger from arms and from bile. Physical pain and suffering from own misunderstandings and wrong notions. Blessed with one or two sons. In spite of his great many vigour he remains in service. Great trouble from too little learning; strife with sons; injuries due to fall from high place. His offspring get affection from relatives but has disputes with brethren. The native is crafty, jealous, weak, timid, impatient, more daughters than sons, relatives are fortunate, stomach complaints, gain through fraud, harms brothers through mantra-tantra. Good fortune and much happiness if in Leo, Scorpio, Sagittarius or Pisces. If strong, exalted or in own sign it gives Raj Yoga for head of a monastery; an impressive sermoniser, inclined towards pilgrimage and foreign travel. Fear and danger from water. Knowledge and learning are denied. Cattle wealth. Wicked and foolish. Absence of offspring, or their sudden and violent destruction. Meet with adversity and are disobedient. Harm through excess or irregular pleasure.”
• Bepin Behari: “Rahu in the 11th house and Ketu in the 5th is very powerful. It enables the person concerned to acquire physical and social conveniences and power. The are often members of the social elite. An aura or righteousness and morality surrounds them. In materially inclined persons these impulses are favourable for the acquisition of wealth, social and political status, and opportunities for disseminating spiritual and occult knowledge. Opportunities like these come in profession and may upset their personalities, making them vain, egotistical, and self opinionated. If they maintain their psychological balance, however, they may explore undiscovered laws of nature, clearly describe latent motives of others, and extensively externalise their own inner powers.”
• Prash Trivedi: Rahu in the 11th house and Ketu in the 5th: “The analogy of the phoenix rising from the ashes usually holds true for natives with this placement. As often the case when Ketu is in the first half of the chart, the early life of the native is not very pleasant. Breaks in formal education as they don’t like it and may only go through it out of a sense of social obligation. When Ketu I strong here, they will have a penetrating and piercing intellect as Ketu’s disposition for learning is usually internalised. I have noticed that they usually pursue some form of mysticism either in an accepted way or purely personal. If the ascendant lord conjuncts this Ketu the native will choose platonic love over other forms. There is some sort of frustrations and disappointment encountered with love in adolescent years that makes the native harbour and negative feeling towards love in general. Ketu in 5th is not auspicious for having and raising progeny unless the fifth house is exceptionally strong and Jupiter is aspecting. In charts of female it denoted difficult child birth. Rahu in the 11th is supposed to fulfil most of ones desires in this lifetime. This is not always true and when it does happen, it’s late in life, after ones 40s. This Rahu makes the native ambitious and there is a distinct frustration noticed when their aims are not achieved. 11th house affairs — goals, aspirations, elder brothers, sources of gain, philanthropy, idealism, friends, sharing, group relationships, realisation of objectives — get highlighted. Elder brothers, if they exist, are a source of gain and vice versa provided other influences allow for it. Rahu in the 11th is a great bestower of material gains, but this has to be supported by other combinations in the chart. It is the natives karma to understand and work out the opposites of 5th & 11th like self consciousness & group consciousness, acquisition or resources & sharing of resources, personal ambition & humanitarian perspective. Friendship is a keynote of the lives of these natives, and any unnecessary selfishness needs to be avoided as those who can help him might put out if they see him acting in a selfish manner. Natives with this placement acquire a fortune by devious means and squander it is quickly on undesirable expenditures.”

Ketu in Purva Ashadha 6th house:

• Phala Deepika: Ketu in 6th house makes “a person very magnanimous, embodying the best of human qualities, firms and fame. He will possess high authority, destroy his enemies and fulfil his ambition.” “Danger from ulcer.”
• Jataka Bharnam: Ketu in the 6th houses “brings the destruction of a persons enemies, happiness from animals, gain of wealth, no disease of the body, but disrespect with relatives on mother’s side.” “Ketu in the 6th is very auspicious, due to which the native is dear and loved by brothers, is generous with good qualities, is famous and gets reputation and prestige due to learning and education.”
• B.V. Raman: Ketu in the 6th house “This is the best position for Ketu to occupy in the horoscope. The person will have fame and authority, He will be foe-less. Never-the-less his moral character will be loose. The position also confers intuitive and occult powers.”
• Chamatkar Chintamani: Ketu in the 6th house: “Discomfiture and disillusionment through the maternal uncle. Destruction of enemies. Cattle wealth, but pauper. Sound health; recovers quickly is there is any ailment. There is little gain, success and pleasure from maternal comfort of cattle wealth. He is free from sickness and worry and has wealth. He is successful in most debates and discussions. He is dear to relatives, large-hearted, skilled, reputed, and gets honour and fame through knowledge. He has financial gain and is firm, a high officer; enjoys expediency. There is trouble the teeth and lips. This native suffers from physical affliction. Unfaithful servants; loss through small animals; danger from insects, reptiles and other animals.”
• Bepin Behari: “Rahu in the 12th house and Ketu in the 6th produces an unusual and powerful impact, providing much psychic power and enormous physical strength to carry out a special mission in life. Sometimes these individuals are found living in abnormal or trying living conditions, but they produce extraordinary results. These results may be highly propitious or socially undesirable; this depends on the disposition of Rahu in the particular chart. These individuals are great organisers and leaders of large numbers of people. Their leadership may be along bizarre, abnormal, or non-conventional lines. When their psychic faculties weaken, these people feel baffled. It is of utmost importance that they are guided properly so that they can take advantage of their opportunities to gain deeper understanding of the laws of nature using their powers for constructive purpose.”
• Prash Trivedi: Rahu in the 12th house and Ketu in the 6th: “This placement oscillates between opposite more often than other placements. There can be a thin line separating insanity & genius; paranoia &  self discovery. This can be a difficult combination to handle and there is usually a sense of fatness to life. Rahu highlights 12th house things: receptivity, negation, seclusion, destiny, past lives, karma, escapism, excessive indulgence, luxury, losses, expenses, charity, foreign affairs, limitations, imprisonment, connectivity with subtle planes, fantasy, paranoia, subconscious mind, dreams, visions, sorrow, renunciation, liberation. The 12th house becomes the main field of activity in the natives life and even very evolved souls have difficulty balancing this combination. It can give a taste for all kinds of intoxications, smoking is common, There is a desire to completely immerse the ego in the sea of illusions resulting from excessive indulgence. Usually a strong ascendant is the key to minimising the negative effects of this placement. It can give the native a taste for the supernatural and allow him to look far beyond the material realm of existence. It can also give knowledge of the ocean of Maya in which the divine play of life in played. In my view, half the problem is solved if the native can keep away from all types of drugs and alcohol and they should remain equally wary of blindly following religious orders or other types of institutions. Such natives have a tendency to end up as doctors, nurses, healers, mediums, preachers, counsellors, lawyers, social workers, politicians, detectives, law enforcement. Rahu in the 12th also gives some foreign connection relates to the significations of its depositor or plants associated with it. Ketu in the 6th is supposed to be a powerful force giving worldly riches and power. There is better chance of this coming true is Jupiter is associated with Ketu in some way. These natives tend to expect too much from those working under them. They are not good at taking orders and do not do well in 9 – 5 jobs. Independent enterprise is better for their mental well being. These natives should avoid making too much of 6th house things like diseases, servants, enemies as there is a tendency to unnecessarily dwell on these topics. Most strange diseases and disorders can be found with this Ketu. They usually have no depth of enemies either by their own making or conferred by providence. How they deal with enemies differs based on other things in the chart, but diplomacy is not in the sphere of Ketu’s expertise. 6th house Ketu has very definite ideas about work ethics, purity and morality and there is a tendency to pass judgement and impose one’s ideas on others. Their strong will power helps them achieve their desires sooner or later; but they must guard against over extending their energy. They need to strike a balance between 6th house and 12th house.”

Ketu in Purva Ashadha 7th house:

• Phala Deepika: Ketu in 7th house “causes a person to be disrespected, live in the company of wicked women, suffer from disease of the bowels, loose wife and vital power.”
• Jataka Bharnam: Ketu in 7th house “gives fear during travel, and enemies destroy ones wealth. If in Scorpio, conditions are always profitable but wife gets troubled, worries, anxiety, and expenditures are ever increasing. Wife suffers headaches and sudden physical troubles. This Ketu is not considered auspicious; travel in Ketu periods tend to be fruitless and expensive.”
• B.V. Raman: Ketu in 7th house: “The native will have an unhappy marriage with a shrewish wife. He is passionate, sinful and lusts after windows. His wife is sickly. The native suffers from cancer of the abdomen (or uterus is if a woman). He will suffer humiliation and loss of virility.”
• Chamatkar Chintamani: Ketu in the 7th house: “has much trouble and danger form travel, but he returns safely. Loss of wealth and fear of drowning. Trouble from partner and sons. Extravagant; nervous. If in Scorpio there will be gain of wealth, and income will be stable. Increased expenditure and happiness from wealth. There is want of happiness from partner. She may be wicked. The native himself is immodest, sleeps long, has humble speech, undertakes a lot of travels. Journeys are postponed, wealth is lost, and there is fear of enemies and thieves. He is adulterous and deserted by partner. Ailments of the intestines; seminal troubles and wrath of the ruler.”
• Bepin Behari: “Rahu in the 1st house and Ketu in the 7th intensifies the material urges of the individual. It drives one to seek prosperity, personal prowess, greater work skills, higher social status, and to leave ones mark on society. Yet these individuals fair to satisfy their thirst completely. This leads to disenchantment with the people or groups with whom they come in contact. Self-conceit greatly vitiates their interpersonal relationships and these individuals may experience great anguish and phycological frustration at many levels. They may begin to analyse the working of their inner mind. The psychological changes arising out of situation makes them more introverted. As their frustration is transmuted these persons gradually begin to immerse themselves in humanitarian activities and become useful members of society and helpful and understanding workers.”
• Prash Trivedi: Rahu in the 1st house and Ketu in the 7th “fortunate in that it allows the native to successfully project their personality to the outside world. Rahu is said to do well in the 1st, 9th & 10th houses. If Rahu is placed very close to the ascendant degree, then it gives an out of ordinary physical appearance and personality. The person is usually on the taller side and has a peculiar sort of wordiness attached to their manners, which of course is not very pleasing to others. A heightened sense of self, which can often turn into ta false sense of pride or vanity, is noticed; which can drive them to act mindlessly on many occasions.If Rahu is working through his higher principle, this position provides keen insight and capacity for constant introspection. This is why this combination produces so many philosophers and saints. These men having the true understanding of the working of the cosmic forces don’t like to be addressed by titles. Rahu here can also provide deep insights into mass psychology and future trends. they can be found working in any field, but we do find that many scientists, inventors, explorers, adventures have this placement. They like to have independence in whatever they are doing. Rahu in the first provides good physical stamina and vitality that might be over-extended in exploration in extreme conditions, adventure sports. They often feel lonely. Their sense of individuality does not depend on social intercourse and they have capacity to be alone for long periods of time. Ketu in 7th hinders the formation of any lasting relationship. Unless there are powerful forces over-riding this, life-long bachelors is the norm with this placement. Relationships only stand a chance if their partner gives them lots of room to be themselves and follow their own path. They can be sweet and humble in their social conduct unless afflicted. They always stand by the way they think and feel and are very frank and outspoken about it. This habit does not help them win many friends except those with enough understanding to gage their real intent. Public speaking comes naturally to these people even is they seem shy off-stage. The native has to learn to take the spotlight off one’s own self in order to understand and accommodate others. They are caught up in the dilemma of why should one scatter one’s energies outside when the whole universe exists within the self. This often causes them to completely exclude the world outside. More evolved souls do not make this mistake because they understand self-realisation has no meaning unless it is shared with and includes the world outside as well.”

Ketu in Purva Ashadha 8th house:

• Phala Deepika: Ketu in 8th house “native will be short lived, remain separated from his dear friends and engage in feuds, be injured by a weapon and meet with disappointments in all efforts.” “Danger from ulcer.” “Unnatural death like suicide or association as a result of the hatred of enemies, or through worms.”
• Jataka Bharnam: Ketu in 8th house person. “If in Cancer, Virgo, Gemini, the native has disease of the anus but gains wealth from conveyances. If in Aries, Taurus, or Scorpio they will see exceptional gains of wealth. If associated with any other malefic they will suffer piles or fistula, money lent out is not returned, and despite their love and affection for animals will be bitten or injured by them”
• B.V. Raman: Ketu in 8th house: “If aspected by a benefic the native will enjoy a long life and much wealth. If afflicted, the native covets the wealth and women of others. He will suffer diseases to the excretory system and illness due to a life of profligacy and excess.”
• Chamatkar Chintamani: Ketu in the 8th house: “Suffers from piles and fistula etc. Fear and danger from fall from horseback. Difficulty from advances given as loans. Gain of wealth if in Aries, Gemini, Virgo or Scorpio. The native is brilliant in games, in job, by character and happiness. The native suffers from secret disease of the face and teeth. He is brave and industrious, but short-lived. There is separation from friends, strife, arm wounds, much opposition, danger from conveyance. If in Gemini, Cancer or Virgo: gain though conveyance. If in Aries, Taurus, Gemini, Virgo or Scorpio: trouble from piles, fistula; fear of loss of cattle; hinderance of the return of loans, financial gain through government. He has his eyes on the wealth and women of others and is ailing, vicious and greedy. If aspected by a benefic he is long-living and wealthy. If in Taurus he gets wealth and son.”
• Bepin Behari: “Rahu in the 2nd house and Ketu in the 8th may give the individual a sense of mission, a feeling that he or she is functioning as an agent for some higher power. In extreme cases this can lead to megalomania. More often it makes one so opinionated that it may be difficult for them to establish a positive rapport with others. These persons have unrealistic expectations of others and want to change them to suit their own specifications. They may not feel content with their achievements, and become obsessed with securing even more. The promise of acquiring greater physical or spiritual merit often brings radical changes in their thinking. They may grow interested in occult sciences as they become increasingly aware of the immense psychophysical possibilities inherent in the process of expending their consciousness.”
• Prash Trivedi: Rahu in the 2nd house and Ketu in the 8th: “Considered a good placement for the wise management of resources, material and spiritual, available at ones command unless there is affliction. If afflicted the native is sure to go through a period of deprivation followed by a period of plenty. It’s good for material well being but the desires never end. There is an intensity about getting exactly what they want. Satisfaction or the lack of it became a keynote for these natives. Usually gives an attractive personality, especially to female natives if there are favourable supports. It usually imparts an unorthodox beauty and captivating quality to the natives face which seems to mature early. Although this position of the nodes supports a wide variety of professions it has a tendency to favour mathematicians, linguists, astrologers, economists, financiers, bankers, explorers, researchers, singers, and musicians. It favours a capitalist mindset unless aspected by Saturn. If badly afflicted the native can loose his sense of proportion and earn through trickery, deceit, bribery, blackmail or theft. It’s likely many drug dealers have this placement. Money made is usually spent quickly on indulgences: smoking, alcohol, meat. Jupiter aspect can redeem a person. A lot of present day evils arise from this combination, but in its higher aspect it gives a love for truth and a charitable disposition. Ketu in the 8th house is good for carrying out research in any chosen field. If working through its higher aspect the native will not fear death as they understand its power to renew. If well placed and materially inclined it can bring legacies and resources of others later in life; but if it’s weak it will only give expectation and no fulfilment. Affliction can give sexually transmitted disease. There is need to maintain calm in the worldly game of gain and loss. If the native gets carried away in either of these they will find life to be unforgiving. They need to seek balance between the earthy second house and the emotional 8th house.”

Ketu in Purva Ashadha 9th house:

• Phala Deepika: Ketu in 9th house “makes a person take a sinful course, commit unrighteous acts, and be deprived of father. They are unfortunate, poverty stricken and speak ill of good people.”
• Jataka Bharnam: Ketu in 9th house “releases the person from their troubles, gives happiness from son, rise of fortune through foreigners, distress or diseases of the arm. Blessings from doing penance, religious activities and giving alms.”
• B.V. Raman: Ketu in 9th house: “The native will be short tempered and get upset over triffles. He will be eloquent but will use this talent to scandalise others. Fond of pomp and show, haughty and arrogant, he will, however, be valourous. Often treating his parents badly and generally hostile towards them he will be short sighted but save much money through frugal living. He will have a good wife and children.”
• Chamatkar Chintamani: Ketu in the 9th house: “He is desirous of sons. Favour and fortune through aliens. Trouble and loss through brothers and pain in the arms. People laugh at his penance and donations. The native feels the absence of sons, He generosity is considered a boast. He is short tempered, eloquent, convert, critical, brave, jealous of father, vain, spiritless, arrogant and unfortunate. The native is blessed with wealth and sons; gain through aliens and success over troubles. His brothers are in difficulty and has much pain and suffering in both arms. Mocked for his religious fervour and activities as they are not in accord with scripture. Trouble for the father since childhood. Luck is not favouring. No desire for pilgrimage. The native overcomes anguish and harbours a burning desire for sons. He is valiant, well-armed, absence of friends, wealth; piety and modesty and is worried about relatives and sons and poverty. This Ketu keeps him free from many troubles and calamities. It blesses him with sons; fortune through foreigners; satisfaction through asceticism and benevolence. He may be a king or a minister; has fame; glory, wisdom, generosity, kindness and devotion. This Ketu shakes his faith; voyages bring misery and misfortune; strange dreams, and doles out punishment in foreign lands.”
• Bepin Behari: “Rahu in the 3rd house and Ketu in the 9th gives many responsibilities along with a tendency towards reclusiveness. These individuals come out of their isolation when their assistance is sought and they are thrust into leadership roles. The leadership may be philanthropic activities, dissemination of the wisdom of the past and sacred scriptures, or in the realm of political organisation and philosophy. They may impart guidance in psychological exploration or industrial organisation. They suffer when they have to follow routine duties; otherwise they do not reject hard work, penance, and contemplation. Gradually they realise that public and charitable work is the best goal in life and they embrace the principle of right action: selfless activity with no expectation of reward.”
• Prash Trivedi: Rahu in the 3rd house and Ketu in the 9th: “This is considered an auspicious placement for the nodes. Rahu provides material success while Ketu takes care of inner life. Rahu provides courage but also misunderstandings with younger siblings. As is the case with natural malefics the live things of the house suffer (younger siblings and companions), while the non-living things prosper: mental and physical energy, passions, prowess, leadership ability, oratory, scientific rational thinking, writing ability, etc. In some cases strong assistance from younger siblings helps one get ahead in life (or vice versa). Short journeys bring luck, though they can sometimes be unpleasant. Longer journeys to distant countries do not turn out to be suited for the native unless Ketu is strong in a friendly sign and conjunct the yoga karaka planet or exalted planet. A peculiar thing of this placement is that the native can hold a gun or a pen with equal ease; which they choose depends on other things in the chart. Writers, orators, painters, sculptors, instrumentalists, soldiers, athletes (especially those requiring skill and strength of arms), generals, revolutionaries, political and spiritual leaders are likely to have this combination. The physical and metal abilities provided by this Rahu can be uses in positive way if other placements in the chart provide an integrated personality. I have found that, due to the 3rd house emphasis, this placement to produce a number of atheists who swear by science and scientific thought. Late in life that can swing to the other pole and denounce everything material. They have to strike a balance between physics and religion; aggression and compassion, the drive and the path, mater and spirit. If an evolved should is capable of striking this balance they will realise the beauty, dexterity, gentleness, and genius of this placement. The first half of life is usually more fruitful than the second half: if the native achieves fame and fortune in his youth, this will be lost in his 40s. Age 47 begins a new episode in their life: for those who have had a relatively uneventful life until this point they now, after 47, find an opportunity to make their mark on the world. Ketu should be quite strong for this to happen. After age 47 Ketu tries to bring the 9th house to light. For those who have lived a material existence up to this point will find it a miserable experience; especially if they are not willing to change the course of their life.”

Ketu in Purva Ashadha 10th house:

• Phala Deepika: Ketu in 10th house “makes a person have to overcome great obstacles in order to do any good act, or he may himself be responsible for the obstacles. He is impure and engages in evil deeds. He is energetic, wise and reputed.”
• Jataka Bharnam: Ketu in 10th house “native is devoid of happiness from father, destroys enemies despite being unfortunate oneself. Conveyances get wear and tear and one suffers from windy diseases. Trouble from horse back riding. Ketu in Virgo 10th house makes a person happy and wealthy. Aries, Taurus, Virgo, Scorpio is good for gains.”
• B.V. Raman: Ketu in the 10th house: “The native will be strong, bold and well known. He will commit vile deeds, be impure in his resolve, and face many obstacles in his undertakings. He will be very clever. If beneficially disposed the native will be happy, religious, well-read in scripture and visit many pilgrimage places and sacred rivers.”
• Chamatkar Chintamani: Ketu in the 10th house: “He is unfortunate and miserable. Trouble through father. Danger of falling from a horse or some other form of transport. His enemies are destroyed if in Gemini, Leo, Capricorn or Aquarius; the native will be intelligent, strong, a craftsman, self-realised, social, phlegmatic, bravest of the brave, challenging and much travelled. Trouble for the father and the native is ugly and unfortunate. Danger for horse, elephant, cow or bull etc. If in Pisces or Sagittarius [or is it Pisces or Sagittarius ascendant] he get the greatest honour and recognition, wise, an authority of scripture, living in foreign land, many victories. In Aquarius, Virgo, Gemini or Taurus [or these ascendants] he is amiable and get ordinary results. The imposition is not favoured for business, but the native get fortune in a foreign land if it’s in a movable sign. Disease of the rectum, lowly habits and deed; adulterous. He gets no gain or support from parents. If in Virgo he gets a though injury from conveyance. He is fond of playing Veena and like black objects but opposes all good activities. He is impressive, reputed, and gallant, but troubled through thieves. There is loss of reputation through fraud, treachery, an unfavourable public and market conditions, failures, changes and depressions.”
• Bepin Behari: “Rahu in the 4th house and Ketu in the 10th may bring emotional suffering and the frustration of desire. These natives often enjoy many physical comforts and opportunities for sense gratification, but first they may pass through heart wrenching situations of utter hopelessness. Their despair may not appear on their faces; indeed, others may accuse them of insensitivity or of exaggerating their troubles. These emotional setbacks may seriously affect their relationships. Those with extremely weak egos may suffer from schizophrenia; those with exaggerated egos may become ruthless and pursue their objectives without consideration for others. When they begin to deal with their inner issues constructively, they prepare themselves to meet any situation without giving undue importance to their person conveniences, dislikes, or troubles. They begin to realise that life is not for idleness but for working simply for the works sake, without wasting time or licking one’s wounds.”
• Prash Trivedi: Rahu in the 4th house and Ketu in the 10th: “Everything is fine as long as the native is not ambitious about career. Contentment is the key word of this placement, A strong attachment to mother or mother figures in seen; similar to Rahu conjunct Moon. Some help from the mother or the mother’s side helps one get ahead in life. The father figure is usually absent from a young age or ignored. They no not like vocations that involve a lot of travelling. They prefer to have a permanent home in a particular village, town or city where they spend the majority of their life. They usually prefer smaller towns to bigger cities. 4th house vocations like property dealers, agriculturists, dairy farmers, transporters, professional drivers, child psychologists, children story writers, interior decorators, architects, construction engineers, etc. are favoured by this placement. At least a couple changes of profession are common. Ketu in the 10th hinders job satisfaction. It becomes the natives duty to insulate the emotional aspects of life rather than the practical aspects. A sudden fall is imminent if the native gets over ambitious in career or reputation. Any attempt to suppress the active subconscious can make their lives dull and sad.”

Ketu in Purva Ashadha 11th house:

• Phala Deepika: Ketu in 11th house “makes a person hoard money, possess many noble qualities, enjoy himself well, and gives every opportunity to collect good materials and be successful in achieving all desires.”
• Jataka Bharnam: Ketu in 11th house makes the “native sweet spoken and excitable, they get good education, has charming appearance, is voluptuous, vigorous, valorous, wears beautiful clothes, but suffers disease of the anus and unhappiness from children. In own sign aspected by benefits this Ketu can give quick gain, much wealth and give success in all objectives.”
• B.V. Raman: Ketu in 11th house: “The native will have a habit of hoarding. He may get monetary windfall through speculation, lottery, horse racing or stock exchange. Noble and possessed of many good qualities of head and heart, he will succeed in all his ventures and will participate in charitable causes and events.”
• Chamatkar Chintamani: Ketu in the 11th house: “The native gets success and gain from all sources. Very fortunate and learned, handsome, strongly built, well-dressed and very glorious. His offspring are unfortunate and suffer from fear and danger. The native is reputed, charming, happy-go-lucky, has house and property, affluent, generous, skilled in aesthetics and archery; sweet, pleasant, humorous, learned, prosperous, imposing, fortunate with jewellery, dress, and ornaments; suffers from ailments of the rectum and tension. He is generous, kind, popular, fond of literature, contented and respected by the king. If this Ketu is in Aries, Taurus, Virgo, Sagittarius, or Pisces, or is aspected by Jupiter or Venus the native is especially benefitted. There is success and gain in business. He is a poet, a writer, gets state honour, wealth flourishes. He was success and quick gain everywhere and spends it on noble cause. He is unfortunate in respect to progeny. Denotes undesirable associations, opportunities are missed, hopes remain unfulfilled; he is misguided by unfaithful friends.”
• Bepin Behari: “Rahu in the 5th house and Ketu in the 11th activates the persons creativity in a paradoxical manner, restricting material creativity in order to impels the creative forces to higher levels from which beneficence of different kinds can be radiated. These individuals may experience difficulty in having offspring of their own, but on a mental plane they are very active. The keep themselves extremely busy. Material creativity might suffer, as may sociability, and there can be anxiety about financial security. Despondency  due to such experiences makes them seek compensation on the mental plane where they attain some degree of satisfaction. Ultimately they may become both impersonal and quite successful in relationships. They attain significant social status and may make a great deal of money. They eventually realise that their happiness and peace of mind do not depend on specific work involvements but on a trust in the law of karma. Even in small everyday activities their actions are now guided by an attitude of helpfulness.”
• Prash Trivedi: Rahu in the 5th house and Ketu in the 11th: “This combination can produce the best and the worse type of human being. The 5th and 11th deal directly with ones mental make-up and interaction with others. They have abundant mental energy which can be used for good or evil. Rahu in the 5th provides this mental energy along with highlighting 5th house affairs — intellect, creativity, self-consciousness, past life merits and demerits, children, love of the self and others, acting, confidence, education, publications, mantra, the chosen deity, etc. This is also the house governing mass media and cinema. This is the reason why most actors and other people associated with movie and stage productions have this combination. In my view, photography originates from this placement. In many charts of photographers I have come across this nodal placement in 90% of them. Under malefic influence Rahu in 5th can produce megalomania and even dictators if Sun & Mars are involved — dictators of nations as well as the self styled dictators of home and workplace. It can also produce crooks and swindlers, thieves, thugs if Mercury is afflicted or involved in this combination. It is thus a very sensitive place for Rahu where one need to channel their creative and intellectual energies for the benefit of the group or the sphere of ones influence. In other words, this energy needs to be channelled through he 11th house. There is usually a break in formal education making vocational training preferable to classical education. When working in it’s higher principle, 11th house Ketu allows channelling to happen with ease. When afflicted it can block the 11th house so that one does not have many friends nor are they involved in any social or humanitarian projects resulting in a self-centred life. The self-conscious has to become a part of the group consciousness, and form a part of the collective human consciousness, before finally merging with the greater universal consciousness. 5th house is fire, the 11th house is air; air has no warmth without fire and fire cannot burn without air. The fire produced in 5th house should be dissapated in tot the 11th house so it reaches those who require it. This is the challenge for these natives. Ketu in the 11th house produces misunderstanding with the elder brother and is not considered favourable. Some anxiety on the part of children, their birth and development is also seen. If having children the native usually makes for a concerned parent.”

Ketu in Purva Ashadha 12th house:

• Phala Deepika: Ketu in 12th house native “commits sinful deeds secretly and squanders away his wealth on vile things. He destroys his wealth and is of questionable conduct suffering from ailments of the eyes.”
• Jataka Bharnam: Ketu in 12th house “gives trouble to feet and eyes, heavy expenses, destruction of enemies, lacks desire for happiness, and suffers disease to the anus and loins. The native might not have wealth but will spend money lavishly.”
• B.V. Raman: Ketu in 12th house: “The native will have a restless and wandering mind and will leave his country of birth. The lower classes will befriend him. All inherited property will be lost.”
• Chamatkar Chintamani: Ketu in the 12th house: “Bestows princely glory and prosperity. Spends his wealth for the social good. Enemies are defeated on the battle field. Pain and suffering anger the navel, private parts, feet and eyes. No gain through maternal uncle. He wastes his wealth on misdeeds. He is laggard in war, vicious, restless, generous, extravagant, in-depth. If it conjoins Mercury: success and gain in business; affluent like a king; a poet learned in sastra. If exalted, in own sign or with Jupiter the naive is a very skilled, gentle aesthetic. If strong with Venus he worships Durga, the power goddess. If with Venus or Moon he is adulterous and vicious. The native is eloquent in debate, has beautiful eyes, education, and he destroys his enemies. He gets no help from maternal uncle. Suffers from ailments of the private parts, rectum, feet, eyes, and remains mentally upset. There is loss of old property, unsteadiness, immodesty and imprisonment.”
• Bepin Behari: “Rahu in the 6th house and Ketu in the 12th makes these people intensely concentrated on material pursuits. Often their dreams, psychic experiences and spiritual contacts affect them at deeper levels, producing radical transformations in their mental attitude. They feel unhappy about social differences and may face illness, litigations, and personal accusations but they confront them with courage and confidence, and the final outcome works in their favour. The experience gained in these confrontations gives them inner confidence. Their dream experiences, increased sensitivity, and psychic visions initiate them in the knowledge of supra physical realms. The perception of higher realities now becomes more meaningful to them then the enjoyment of physical comforts and social acclaim. They gradually establish greater control over their psycho-physical functions.”
• Prash Trivedi: Rahu in the 6th house and Ketu in the 12th: “Rahu is said to function well in the upachaya houses and Ketu has a natural affinity for the 12th house. This is generally true, but when it comes to giving hard times this is the toughest placement. Rahu in the 6th highlights 6th house things like work, service, health, enmity, distillation and discrimination, dietary and personal habits, accidents, diseases, discipline and austerity, opposition, litigation, power, helpers, medicine, healing. Natives with this placement have come to terms with all of this negative energy to some extent. 6th house represents adolescent years so from this early period these natives show an immaculate sense of method and order in their lives (provided there are supporting factors). If this Rahu is afflicted they can indulge in mindless behaviour that harms themselves and others which they come to later regret. This is a good combination for physicians, healers, therapeutic vocations. The native usually deals with foreigners and benefits from them in some way: foreign service, tourism, import-export, shipping, etc. They have capacity for heard work, and a dint of fearlessness is noticed. Ketu in the 12th usually gives some psychic experience either through dream or visions [or related to the functions of planets in conjunction]. This is a good position for spiritual pursuits, but Ketu has to be acting through his higher principle. The native usually has some understanding of the divine forces in a very personal way. This position of Ketu usually brings about some unpleasant experiences: imprisonment, isolation, accidents, but this is often a good thing as they are paying off karmas from their past. Isolation is very important for these natives as it can bring out latent abilities. After this realisation follows the hard work indicated by Rahu in 6th. A peculiar trait of this Rahu is that no matter how are they try to avoid enmity, it seems to follow them; this makes forgiveness one of the most important qualities the native can develop. This combination is also beneficial in modern day politics where dealing with enemies and behind the scenes manoeuvres comes naturally to the native. These native usually prevail over their enemies, but enemies can also bring their downfall, and even their death. This position of the nodes usually give a strong constitution but other planets involved can cause serious disease or difficult to diagnose disorders. Sudden unexpected death can also happen if there are other contributing factors. Worldly recognition or success comes only after a long struggle, these natives are very career conscious. They can be headstrong and there is danger of misuse of power, but Ketu in 12th will bring their downfall to teach them the lesson. The native has to guard against rigidity which comes from too much order and discipline in life. They also have to guard against loosing themselves in extreme indulgence from having a complete lack of discipline. Financially the native is neither a miser nor a spendthrift, but they often take up either extreme asceticism or extreme indulgence as a means of attaining liberation . Some few take up the middle path once wisdom dawns on them.”
