Rahu-Ketu Transit and Its Impact
Rahu-Ketu Transit and Its Impact
Rahu and Ketu are shadow planets (Chhaya Graha) in Vedic astrology. They do not have physical existence but exert strong karmic and psychological influences on human lives. These planets move in a retrograde motion and take approximately 18 months to transit through a zodiac sign. Their transit is significant as it brings transformation, sudden changes, and karmic shifts in various aspects of life.
Significance of Rahu and Ketu
Rahu represents illusion, materialism, ambition, foreign travel, technology, and innovation. It amplifies desires and creates obsession.
Ketu symbolizes spirituality, detachment, past karma, and wisdom. It brings introspection, detachment from materialism, and sudden gains or losses.
