Predictions for all the 12 zodiac signs
Caution: First, we would like to caution you that this is a general prediction relating the Rahu-Ketu period lasting next 18 months. It is applicable to billions of people across the globe. But one must remember that these are general in nature. If you want a specific report about the specific effects on you personally, you will have to consult our experts. The results derived from the transit get altered due to the time scale called dasa-bhukti which depends on the position of Moon at birth. For predictions based on your exact time of birth.
Rahu is entering Sagittarius and Ketu the Gemini, on November 2, 2009 and will remain there for one & a half year i.e. up to the end of April 2011.During this period Saturn will remain in Virgo aspecting Ketu. Jupiter will also be aspecting Ketu from Aquarius from December 19, 2009 to May 2, 2010 and from November 2, 2010 to December 6, 2010. The aspect of these two major planets on Ketu is very important.
. What is Rahu and Ketu ??
Rahu and Ketu the lunar nodes are known as shadow planets. They are not independent planets like the sun, moon. Mars etc. They are at all times at opposite points of the zodiac like the head and tail. Though they are by nature evil and generally evil in influence, but by association they become capable of doing good (by association with benefices they turn benefic).
They are not real planets but are only the point of intersection of the moon’s orbit with the ecliptic. They're not technically planets but their influence is so significant that they're given the status of planets. They indicate the precise point of the harmony with the three most important influences in our life- the Sun, the Earth and the Moon. This relationship plays an important part in the enfolding of individual consciousness. They're unique in the sense that they're always transiting retrograde, indicating Karma from previous lives. Rahu & Ketu are the mysterious unseen points in space causing the eclipses. As they symbolically eclipse the Sun (consciousness) and the Moon (the Mind), they have a great part to play in darkening our perspective in order to bring in new lights. They are next in importance to the other two planets -Jupiter and Saturn. These four are the slowest moving planets and require maximum attention when they are in transit.No planet is 100% malefic (bad). The transit effects depend on how we respond to the favorable & unfavorable situations. Rahu has a positive side, offering great boons in communications, new inventions, technology etc.
Rahu is extroverted, affirming, and ambitious, while Ketu is introverted, negating and detached. As a result of our practical experience of several years we have come to the conclusion that rahu and ketu give good results, if they occupy the upachaya hoses, i.e. the houses 3,6,10 and 11. They also give favorable results when they are conjoined with or aspected by lords of beneficial houses particularly yoga karaka planets i.e. those who own both a Kendra (Quadrant) and a trikona (trine) even if such planets may be natural benefics or natural malefics. Rahu's transits show where someone is likely to expand, driven, try new things and disperse their energy into materialistic pursuits. Ketu's transits show where someone is likely to experience restriction, detachment, completion or focus and deepen their spiritual pursuits. If both the running period & transit effects are bad, the overall effect ought to be bad. . It takes 18 years to complete the 12 zodiac signs for them. In each house Rahu & ketu stays for one and half year
To understand the influence of Rahu Ketu in our chart we must learn about their shadow nature. This is the most important factor in when dealing with the influence of the nodes. They are only points in the Zodiac therefore they are unable to enact their effect on their own. The nodes take on the characteristics of their depositor, as they have no substance themselves. It is very important to study the sign, position and placement of the depositor. Rahu is a planet of materialism and gives material gains in a particular area. It gives extremely good results in Kendras & Trikonas. If well placed it gives happiness. If well aspected it gives happiness, acquisition of wealth & a powerful position. But it also gives mental anxieties; it creates conditions wherein you really cannot enjoy material gains. If not well placed & not well aspected it can give loss of position, legal hassles & misfortune. Ketu, on the other hand, will deprive a person of the benefits of the house it is transiting and force a person to think on a higher plane. It can result in turning the mind inwards to seek the ultimate truth.
The following is a general prediction based on this transit of the nodes for 12 zodiac signs. This is based on your natal moon sign (Rashi) placement. In any case, the specific results are heavily dependent on the basic strength of the natal chart and also the running mahadasha of the individual. A strong natal chart is a blessing from the heavens and minimizes all negativity. Also, as there are seven other planets in Vedic astrology, their placements and transits have to be taken into account for an accurate prediction. Conventionally rahu and ketu are held beneficial while transiting the 3rd, 6th, 10th and 11th sign from the natal moon of and individual.
