More Rahu and Ketu.

[Guest guest]

I just /casually/shared one /of many/ 'experiencial' fact- didn't mean to go

'in-depth'. All other facts certainly hold true, goes without saying.

Story of chaya grahas is always good to hear over and over and over again..

Hi Anna:Rahu is called as a "Chhaya Graha" and is known to reflect the

properties of its LORD from time 2 time and favours it over its own aspects.

Also, we have to loook at the exact nature of your chart to derive more

relationships with other houses in terms of aspects, transits and house

placements. The info. mentioned below is purely derived from first principles

"Rahu and Ketu always maintain enmity with SUN and MOON". Read Story

below.....<<< Start storyIn Hindu mythology there is a wonderful story that

describes how the gods and the demons once formed an alliance to produce a

nectar that could give them immortality. This is the story of the churning of

the milk-ocean and the descent of Lord Visnu as the Kurma avatara, the divine

tortoise. When the nectar that was churned from this ocean

was being served to the gods, a demon, disguised as a god, sat between the Sun

and the Moon in an attempt to procure the nectar. When he was detected by the

Sun and the Moon, Lord Visnu immediately severed his head from his body.

Unfortunately, it was not fast enough, for the demon had already tasted a small

quantity of the nectar and had become immortal. Ever since, this demon is said

to wreak vengeance on the Sun and Moon whenever they come near. The head of

this great demon is known as Rahu and his tail is known as Ketu.In Hindu

astrology Rahu and Ketu are known as two invisible planets. They are deadly

enemies of the Sun and the Moon, who at certain times of the year (during

conjunction or opposition) swallow the Sun or the Moon causing either a solar

or a lunar eclipse. In Sanskrit this is known as grahanam or seizing.What

perhaps sounds like a childish story is a powerful metaphor for what actually

happens

when an eclipse takes place. Rahu and Ketu are the astronomical points in the

sky respectively called the north and south lunar nodes.To the observer on

earth, the paths of the sun and the moon appear to be two great circles

projected on the celestial sphere (see the diagram). The sun's path, the solar

ecliptic, makes a complete revolution in one year. At the same time, the moon's

circular path is completed in about one month. Every month the moon will

overtake the sun which moves more slowly. This is called new moon or in

Sanskrit, amavasya. Usually the moon's path passes above or below the sun's

path and no eclipse occurs. But, periodically the moon overtakes the sun at the

place where their paths intersect. This causes the sun or the moon to be hidden

from the earth's view and is thus called a solar or lunar eclipse. These places

of intersection are the north and south lunar nodes, or as they are referred to

in Hindu

mythology, Rahu and Ketu. Therefore, in the symbolic language of mythology, Rahu

and Ketu are said to "swallow up" the Sun and the Moon. The ancient Hindu

observers of the sky were aware of the cause of the solar and lunar eclipses

and so described the process in the language of metaphor.>>> End Story.
