🌟The Matrix Of Ketu

🌟For beginner learners of Jyotish

This is a continuous series of “The Matrix of Rahu/Ketu”. Please refer back to the previous article for a better understanding. Although I wrote some articles about Rahu/Ketu, I would like to shed some on how to predict and determine the strength of Rahu/Ketu in the chart. Today, I will be focused on Ketu energy only.

🌟Disclaimer

Whatever is written here is based on personal observation and opinion, therefore, you might find the information mentioned here is slightly different. The outcome will depend on your overall chart, thus, judge wisely.

🌟Understanding Ketu Energy

Ketu is a karmic node that shows our past life, subconscious mind, and inner strength. Ketu is mastery, not detachment as people think. Its energy from within (inner power) will give us a life force to continue in life. Ketu is our comfort zone where we find solitude and calmness so that we can pursue Rahu. Ketu is the energy of our subconscious mind, where our life operates, functions, behaves, acts, and feels. But because we have been taught to never look within, we neglect our root, and our source, therefore, lacking a deep understanding of Ketu.

If you think about it, Ketu has storage of your past life knowledge, intelligence, and information that you should use in this lifetime to navigate your path, Ketu mastered those aspects so that’s why you created with certain Ketu placement, now the point here is to use this energy to accumulate opposite knowledge (Rahu that is sitting 7 placements away from Ketu). Ketu it’s an energy of spirituality and guru, so tap into your own guru to get your answers, the knowledge is within you.

🌟Key points to decode Ketu

Ketu is connected to a past life, subconscious, and astral realm; trying to decode Ketu via Nakshatra can be slightly challenging because of the ethereal element of Ketu. Therefore, the best way to decode Ketu is via sign placement. Understanding the sign of your Ketu will give an idea of what you mastered and your natural talent in your current lifetime.

Let’s say for example it’s in the Fire sign. People with such placement have inner knowledge of who they’re, what they’re doing, creating, and evolving in life. There is a deep understanding of inner power within them as if Ketu is saying “ You know yourself, keep going and create in life”. Since Rahu will be in the Air sign which is all about others, gains, and connecting with other energies.

Ketu in Earth sign has mastered Artha’s aspect of life. Master aspects of work ethic, material gains, status in life, recognition, etc. Perhaps the soul knows exactly what should be done and how the situation should manifest in terms of collecting coins in this lifetime. That’s why Rahu now is on the other side trying to master the spiritual or soul aspects in this lifetime.

Ketu in Air sign has mastered the Kama aspect of life. Mastered aspects related to relationships, partnership, people energy, human desire, and complex psychological patterns. If Ketu was in a good house too, it manifested as strong emotional and social intelligence, where the person can know deep wounds and weakest points of every individual and perhaps use that for self-benefit.

While Ketu in Water sign has mastered the aspects related to spirituality, sensuality, occult, and mysticism. Perhaps also mastered the aspects which help the person to connect with others emotionally, intuitively, and via psychic; and how to use these abilities to attain material possession(where Rahu will be in Earth sign). Ketu here is using higher conscious energies, divine knowledge, and deeply intuitive people.
