Rahu & Ketu Analysis
The shadow planets reveal your karmic story — where you came from and where you're meant to grow in this lifetime.
Understanding Rahu & Ketu
Rahu (☊ North Node)
Rahu represents where your soul is headed — your dharmic direction in this lifetime. It's unfamiliar territory, so it manifests as intense desire, obsession, and hunger. Wherever Rahu sits, you want it desperately but struggle to feel satisfied.
Think of Rahu as your karmic edge of growth — fascinating, slightly chaotic, and ultimately necessary for your evolution.
Ketu (☋ South Node)
Ketu represents your past-life mastery. These skills come naturally but feel hollow or insufficient for your current life. Ketu's house shows where you tend to withdraw, detach, or feel spiritually drawn.
Ketu is the great dissolver — it strips away illusions, disinterest in material things, and ultimately points toward liberation (moksha).
