I had an interesting intimation sitting around a campfire in the woods last night. The fire perfectly represented Rahu for me, with Ketu being the logs reduced to charcoal, no longer burning, just black shadows of what had once been. I was watching all the bugs fly into the fire out of a near obsessive pull towards the light and then I realized all of us sitting around the fire were also, unconsciously, doing the same thing. The fire was fierce, cruel and elusive. I dunno. What I felt was beyond what I can rationally describe here. :L Just wanted to share.

Strong expression,thank you.... Right now Rahu in my tenth house slowly heating my day,while ketu in my 4th house where Saturn was the lord off scorpio... No gain if there were no pain ... This my story too...

Thank you, this is the best interpretation I have heard of Rahu and Ketu. Most astrologers tend to put them in such a negative light without explaining their true nature or purpose.

Having​ Ketu in the 1st house, hearing you said _'Love that area of life as it is...'_ just hits different. I'​m so glad I discover​ed your channel​ honestly. Your way of teaching​ is exceptionally​ enlightening. ​

This is helping me understand the two so much. Thank you for being so patient and at peace. With mercury in my 1st house in Gemini I find your voice and pace very soothing. With Ketu in my 4th house, no need to say more, I had to move a level up to survive it.

Just LOVE your videos Ryan. Thankyou so much for creating all of this amazing content! Bless you! :D

"A whole world has to be created to fulfil one desire" I think that's the most profound thing I have heard on KZread. Enjoying all your videos will get the myth and magic course.

I am thankful to god that I've found such a brilliant teacher in you🙏🏻thank you for sharing your knowledge Guruji 🙏🏻

I can listen for you for ever, thanks for sharing, it helps a lot.

Wow. Amazing explanation of desire and how it creates worlds. Really opened my mind. Thank you Ryan. Working through all your videos right now :)

Great video, thorough and patient explanation. I thank you

This video is amazing Ryan, thank you kindly for sharing X

Thank you so much, this is so deep.

“Not asking God to be anything you want” I loved that part about just observing your thoughts and consciousness without expectation because “that’s how you say I love you to God” 🙏🏼 thank you this was beautiful

So much new information! Thank you.

Beautifully placed explanation of Rahu and Ketu.

I listened this 4 times!! My KETU AT 7 Pisces and yes so true..thx god I began to embrace the feeling of it,meaning of it..as times goes I feel more mature and balanced...thx Ryan u helped me so much..u are my teacher light guru..u are my sun at my 9th house

Very good advice on Ketu :-) I have it in the 10th house 29Cancer. I can't seem to find myself in the 10th house. I will treat my emotions and creativity from now on as sacrifice to a divine work. Which is everything Thanks ⚜🇭🇺

Thank you. Some great tutorials here.

The problem of desire is mentioned very well in the Bhagavad Gita. It is from desire that all problems arise, but without desire the world would cease to function. We need action without regard for the fruits of action, that creates no karma and ultimately sets you free.

wow...Ryan, what you said starting at 15.36 had a deep impact on me..i can personally really relate to it..

Namastey from India 🙏🏼 Lovely tutorial! I’d dig your website more I guess( Rahu in 6th house here.) ☺️

Thank you for such a beautiful explanation!

You don't give up your desires; you observe them. (Buddhism.) Developing the inner observer of your cravings and aversions gives you control over them, whereas "giving up" your desires (as if that were possible) implies that desires are inherently bad.

Hi Ryan, I like your video tutorials. I am myself a semi astrologer always studying my chart and comparing it to my life lessons and events. I have a strong Jupiter (in pices) and an exalted mercury aspecting each other. So probably that's why I am interested in vedic astrology. Like you said I have a 11th house with debilitated sun. But the sun has neechbangh raja yoga and has a parivartana yoga with venus. Being Venus in the 9th house and in Leo, I always work with multicultural people. Since US being a multicultural place I have worked with Japanese, Brazilians, Spanish, Americans, British, Indians, Chinese etc. Whenever I do some creative projects It stands out as one of the best and people get jealous. Probably because I have kethu in the 5th house and this was something I was very good at it in the past and need not have to work on that in this life and it comes out easily for me. But For some reason I don't see myself being interested in artistic or creative projects in this life. And rahu being in the 11th house people find me very attractive and an easy going person. Although I am fun to be around and I like being out there, I find myself difficult in forming a real friendship or deep connection with anybody. I also have problems with bosses. I had bosses from different countries and I find myself hard to understand or trust them. Because of these Issues I have lost my job many times and am still working to have a stable career. Also my 10th lord Mercury is aspected by mars, Saturn , Jupiter and 8th house lord moon which is causing a lot of ups and downs in my career life. I am very good at what I do but I find myself difficult working with authoritative people which often affects my career life in a bad way. But I always come out of it and find the next best job. My 10th house lord is exhalted in 10th house.

Many people have been spoiled by Rahu but not with Kethu...

you are amazing... thanks for this

Just this one video has given me more insight on the way forward than all the inspiration and motivation put together. Coz obviously, unless we know why we are going where we are going, it is but a fool's errand. Ernst Wilhelm and Ryan, you both are to astrology what Sri Yukteswar and Sri Yoganandaji are to yoga as we know it.

makes alot of sense rahu in 2nd ketu in 8th. I'm good with spiritual work but I must learn how to make a honest living from my skills. I think I got it!

Very good explanation Ryan. Really enjoyed the video, which kind of forced me to stop and reflect at many places. Appreciate your insights ! I was wondering, that if for example Rahu and Ketu are the 2/8 axis in the Birth chart, but exactly the reverse in the Navamsa (i.e. Ketu and Rahu are in the 2/8 axis), what does that mean ? Which would you give more importance to in terms of the area of life that we are meant to develop in this lifetime ? My understanding is that the Navamsa should show the true nature of a planet for a particular chart.

Thanks for the video

Very very interesting sir.

fascinating..!!

I have Rahu in 1st and Ketu in 7th. This makes sense. I need to learn how to be emotionally independent and self-validate my own opinions. Rahu's lord is in great enemy sign and Parivartana yoga. Ketu's lord is in a neutral sign conjunct Saturn within 2 degrees.

Great lecture!! Thank you for sharing your deep spiritual knowledge in relation to rahu ketu attributes... I could relate to this very much

I have watched a lot of videos on rahu ketu. But one thing you said in the first half is quite unique. Yes, it's true we do seek darkness in our choice of films, our choice of relationships, career etc. Some even seek a dark n isolated n anonymous life. Maybe that could be why remedies dont work, the soul knows what it wants but society rejects it.

Is there a name for the painting on the left side of the screen? I enjoy it very much.

How should we interpret Rahu and Ketu in two very high importance charts Navamsa chart D-9 and total sanchita karma chart i.e Shahtysamsa D-60 provided we have correct birth time

Hi , Ryan , youre videos are very insightful. My , Rahu is in the 6th house in the sign of scorpio , " Debilitated " Its also in conjuction with Sun. Is rahu being debilitated here , in the 6th house , benefic for Sun's dignity. My sun mahadasha will be upon me , is it going to be benefic . Regards Shripud Khemka

What does it mean ..? When they conjunct in the divisional chart? How does that happen and what does it mean? How are you meant to read it .....as one entity? Or as an aspect or conjunction..... does the house or sign add to the significance??? Thanks .. .

ketu in 2nd from ASC dhanus and rahu is in 8th , I was addicted to Xnax drug & addicted for preiod of 1995 to 2016 (may 12 TH) ,i have stopped all this ,what does this mean positions of kethu &rahu ,ur explanation on this very good sir

Putting aside what has been written and by your understanding of rahu and ketu and the signs, what signs could you consider them exalted in or function in the highest capacity? What do you think about ketu in leo?

ur are great

did we choose our natal chart before we went down here? pls answer, Thank you

I have rahu in 4th and ketu in 10th. very true👍

What happens if Rahu's lord (if you need an example then use sun) is with Ketu? I read this karmically puts emphasis on Ketu and letting go. I just to know more concrete and practical ways to understand this. It's hard to go after what Ketu is saying to let go of.

I want to think & see out side material world,finance,family. But,could not find any way to get out. My Rahu at Audra star. Rahu,Mercury,Moon and Venus in 2nd house Gemini. Will I get Miksha ? My Ketu(venus star) is in 8th house Sagittarius.

I am half way through my Rahu period in the prime of my life. I have seemly clash heads with others, can not take orders that well from others, and always looking for alternative routines in what ever I am doing. My Rahu is in Taurus 👍. I am misunderstood most of my life.

This is a great explanation of Rahu and Ketu. Thank you, Ryan! What are your thoughts as far as career for Rahu (Pisces) in the 4th and Ketu (Virgo) in the 10th? :)

It feels like my Rahu is good and bad at the same time but I don't know for sure. Can you help? -Rahu is in 8th house pisces -Jupiter (lord of pisces) is in 9th house aries -Mars (Leo ascendant) aspect rahu -Sun in Leo ascendant

I have 3 Mahayogas in my chart can you say what that means. I have Rahu oin Gemini and Ketu at Moksha in Sagittarius.

I feel like signs are important though. I know that the nodes stay in a sign for 18 months so it depends on a lot of factors. But my Rahu is in Scorpio rasi and Pisces navamsha. And so it's Scorpio-Jyeshta-Pisces and Ketu is Taurus-Mrigashira-Virgo. And I find that to make sense with who I am. But ya, obviously Scorpio and Taurus isn't enough.

ketu is 2nd from ASC & rahu is in 8th ,2/8 axis ,what this mean sir?

Hi Ryan. thanks so much for all your free tutorials. i really appreciate you are sharing your knowledge with us. I was born 14 January 1981. and I always thought I was a capricorn. but one of the vedic chart calculators suggested I was Sagitarius. I am little confused now. am I capricorn or Sag?

It depends on what astrologer you go do and how they calculate the chart, you are always you, even without the labels.

Watched the entire video. GROUNDBREAKING STUFF!!!!

Sounds very common, though. An old text says Ketu bat Mangal Rafu bat Shani.

Great explanation, i'm followin your channel and you can explain things so well. So, the houses of rahu and ketu are more important than the signs that ate into? I mean once rahu is on the 5th house, we need to develop our creative energy on music, painting, media, childreen ..no matter how hard is to give up on 11th stuff like ambition and friendship ? I mean in this case having rahu on the 5th is like having rahu on Leo or not?

Interesting, My Rahu is conjunct Mercury. I guess I struggle with ADHD and Asperger's syndrome. Ketu is alone though. Ketu is aspected by Jupiter though. Not sure what that means. Ketu's lord is also aspected by Jupiter.

I don't know how to apply what he says when ketu if it is in the 6th. If you think you're going to get satisfaction from your.... chores? Diseases? Enemies? Nobody expects to get any satisfaction from those things.

You say, that if Ketu is in the 7th house and if you learn to love your spouse as an incarnation of the divine, it will result in a transformation. I have Ketu in the 7th house of Libra with Rahu in the Aries sign. We were absolutely incompatible. Gradually I had learnt to accept him over 23 years and yet when that acceptance happened, he passed away all of a sudden. This was the transformation that happened though it was not what I had expected. What am I supposed to understand or learn from this loss? It's nearly 3 years and I am still searching for answers.

Hello Sir, This is the best video on Rahu and Ketu, thank you for sharing your Knowledge. I have a question, please do reply. I have a Libra Lagna, with Ketu and Mars in 12th house and Rahu and Jupiter in 6th house. Ketu is not in conjuction with Mars and same with Rahu. Here how can I judge the dignity of both, as they have strange placement, like ketu is 12th house but in 6th sign and vice versa for Rahu. Well Mercury is in 1st

Thank you but let me rephrase myself. As a libra rising my rahu is in the 4th of capricorn and ketu in 10th of cancer. How should I interpret this? Follow rahu to the home (and whatever else 4th house represents) through career (and whatever else capricorn sign represents)? I mean they are polar energies and I feel stuck inbetween.

Ryan, I'm looking at a chart where in the Rasi Rahu (in 2nd leo) is in bad dignity (sun in aquarius) but both in the D7 and D9 Rahu is apparently well placed… how to put this together? And also Rahu acts like Saturn but how much exactly? Idem for Ketu's ruler and Mars… how to put, in this case, these 2-lord influences together? Software needed? Thank you!

levivelivel Software is definitely needed. Also, you need to just be looking at the Natal Chart alone for a while of charts of people you know, so you can match indications to experiences. Then as you get more comfortable with that start contemplating the vargas. Also, you may need someone to teach you how to use the vargas, or read more about them. I spend some time discussing them in The Art and Science of Vedic Astrology Volume 2, and will hopefully do a class webinar on them in 2015, as I can see they are needed, and yes they are hard to understand, because there are so many uses for them.

suyash909 the signs are the personality, so is the ruler of the sign.

Is this a Vedic or western view? From what I understood the Vedic view was that the nodes tell a lie of duality that we have tricked ourselves into believing and we have to synthesise the two houses to overcome the illusion. Hence the 180 degrees apart split in any chart.

Just a question, please don't take this negatively. I find that even with vedic astrology, astrologers often come up with different interpretations or are very vague leaving much open to interpretation. Is there such a thing as good astrologer or an astrologer who is more qualified and respected than others? How do we spot a bad astrologer?

@RyansVedicAstrology

10 жыл бұрын

This is an excellent question and a complicated one. It depends on your expectations of an astrologer. It depends on the relationship of the astrologer to the client. It depends on the skill of the astrologer. Most astrologers that have a thriving practice that do so due to word of mouth and not due to excessive advertising are probably your best astrologers. Some times, certain clients and astrologers don't get along. It doesn't matter how accurate an astrologer is, if a client can't hear it, it's worthless. Also, sometimes you get horrible astrologers who have kind clients. It doesn't matter how bad they are, if people like them, they are often considered good. Also, somethings can be seen very clearly with astrology and some times fate dictates that certain areas of life are hidden. How good an astrologer is, is often reflected in their level of respect. I've known quite a few famous astrologers that told me utter bullox, and quite a few unknown astrologers who told me very accurate things. Fame and skill sometimes go together, sometimes not. Consider all the famous musicians who are talentless, and all the exceedingly skilled musicians no one has ever heard of. Also, lineages, certifications, all of that is really worthless. Some make a big deal out of this, but once again, just because your parents (lineage) was great, or you spent thousands of dollars for a diploma doesn't mean you actually know anything. My advice, is to find an astrologer that is sincere, realizes he/she doesn't know EVERYTHING, is interested in helping you make sense of your life, and doesn't make a big deal about titles, lineages or anything else that tries to impress you. Then ask them a few questions. If they can answer appropriately, consider working with them. If they make no sense, then bless them and move on. Also, consider having a realistic view of an astrologer. They can be an expert just like anyone else. We have this overblown vision that an astrologer should know all things and never make mistakes. We are human. Just like financial advisors, doctors, and people in other professions don't always succeed, neither do astrologers, no matter how much hype there is around them. Doctors often misdiagnose, lawyers often lose cases, financial advisors sometimes make bad investments. The good one's learn from their mistakes and do have better odds for success, but they are not perfect. Neither are astrologers. For one, we do not perfectly understand astrology at present, and second, the world is responsive to our consciousness and intentions. At best an astrologer will see a possible trend based on the current influences. Some trends are stronger than others. So ideally, it is my sense that if you find a sincere astrologer, consider building an honest relationship with that person. Trust their counsel, but live your life. If they are not correct on certain things, but are correct when it matters, then consider letting them know, so they can learn from it. I have many many repeat clients over the years. Most of the time I succeed in sharing useful information. Sometimes, they call me back and say, it didn't go that way, and I take notes and learn from it. The reason they are repeat clients is because we have a working relationship, and although I'm not perfect, the guidance is enough to help them make informed decisions. I would one day, like to see all of this mystique about astrologers and astrology go away, so we can actually treat astrology for what it is, a very helpful system, but not one to take the place of our own free will and faith in God.
