Rahu And Ketu Give Positive Results In These Houses Of Kundli

Good houses for Rahu and Ketu in kundli

Rahu and Ketu in astrology are one of the most dreaded planets. Well, to quote the best astrologers in town, Rahu and Ketu are not actually planets with a physical form like the other seven planets (Moon, Sun, Mars, Mercury, Saturn, Jupiter and Venus). Rahu and Ketu are actually a snowball of energies that are known for their negative effects. But happens, they are not always negative as they too bring positive effects when camping certain houses. 

In an astrological sense, Rahu and Ketu are the points where the Moon’s and Earth’s orbits intersect. These are called nodes. The north node represents Rahu, and the south node represents Ketu. To note, the two intersection points are exactly opposite of each other and are said to create electromagnetic disturbances.

In astrology, Rahu and Ketu are the enemies of the planets Moon and Sun, and thus eclipse them. However, if you consider zodiac signs, Rahu is friends to Gemini, Virgo, Libra, Pisces and Sagittarius zodiac signs and Ketu, on the other hand, is friends with Virgo, Sagittarius, Capricorn and Pisces.

Rahu and Ketu – Birth Mythological Tale

Rahu are Ketu are born out of the same body. Their birth goes back to the time of Samudra Manthan, when Lord Vishnu decided to churn the nectar of immortality from the ocean to give it to the seven planets so they can be immortal. Post the Samudra Manthan, Lord Vishnu asked the planets to line up to receive the immortality nectar. As the planets lined up, a Rakshasa donned the form of an innocent man and stood in the line to receive the nectar, which he did. Once Vishnu came to know that the Rakshasa had fooled him to gain immortality, he, in sheer anger, cut him into two pieces.

However, the Rakshasa couldn’t be killed as he had had the immortality nectar. So his two halves became Rahu and Ketu. Thereafter, scared of Vishnu, the planets did penance to him and were given the planetary status.

Rahu in Astrology

Before we look into what are the good houses for Rahu and Ketu in kundli, we first need to learn a bit about these two shadow planets, starting with Rahu. Rahu in astrology represents greed, materialism, diseases, obsession and fame. When you let your mind get influenced by materialism or lust or hate, Rahu has a role to play in the whole prologue. Any person who gets influenced by Rahu will have a harsh speech and rude nature. Such people can be easily irritated and can be a bit lazy too. 

Rahu in astrology is also called the planet of pleasures. Just like Saturn (Shani), it inundates the native with worldly pleasures like fame, money, etc. and in the act, it spoils you to pull you into its league. Hence, when Rahu dasha is upon, the native needs to be very careful about their choices and decisions. Astrotalk’s astrologers can help you here.

Rahu as a planet, however, is not malefic for each and every one of us. Strong Rahu in kundli of politicians and thieves is said to be a very good combination. It helps these natives acquire name, fame and materialistic possessions as these people are usually greedy. The Rahu planet, for the layman, is beneficial if it occupies the house of enemies in your kundli. On occupying the house of enemies, Rahu and Ketu can safeguard you from effects like buri nazar and any sort of physical and emotional hurt. 

Ketu in astrology 

If planet Rahu is about worldly desires, the planet Ketu is about spirituality in astrology. Also called the half planet, Ketu is responsible for wisdom in humans. The person influenced by Ketu is said to be gifted with spiritual achievements in life. The person also acquires some sort of healing powers. While all this may lure you to get closer to Ketu, but these qualities of Ketu are reflected only when it is positively placed or is in one of the good houses for ketu in kundli

During negative placement, the planet Ketu brings the native woes like depression, anxiety, ghost problems, poor focus and much more. The planet Ketu also is a propeller to certain diseases, hunger, imprisonment, accidents, misery, joint pains, conspiracies etc. The Ketu planet is most compatible with Venus, Saturn, Mercury and Rahu.

While the Rahu Mahadahsa lasts for 18 years, the Ketu mahadasha is as long as seven years. The planet Ketu doesn’t rule any house or Rashi in kind but it surely does occupies a certain house in kundli at a point in time. Thus knowing the good houses for ketu in kundli can help you in making better decisions about various aspects of life.
