The importance of Rahu need not be overemphasized. This malefic planet occupies a significant place in the list of celestial bodies. Rahu is considered a shadow planet as per the ancient science of Astrology, meaning it has no real physical existence. However, its malefic influence is very strong and its presence is said to make the lives of natives very difficult. The presence of Rahu in peoples’ horoscope signifies karma bondage coming down from the previous births.
The alignment of Rahu with different planets creates different types of bondages (problems). As per the Indian tradition, Rahu represents the head. According to the Hindu belief, Rahu can not discriminate between good and evil, and so it works against the standards of righteousness (Dharma). Rahu is stated to be ignorant about spiritual subjects and it is a slave to the Cosmic Game of Illusion (Maya).
Rahu: Is The Cause Of Every Living Being’s Illusion
It is a general belief that Rahu always troubles the natives. Rahu and Ketu do not possess real physical existence. They are shadow planets which have come into existence by specific planetary positions. But they do not traverse the paths traveled by Moon and other planets. While rising, the point where Moon’s orbit intersects the ecliptic becomes Rahu. In the reverse motion, the point where Moon’s orbit intersects the ecliptic becomes Ketu. In spite of lacking real physical existence, Rahu and Ketu have come to acquire very significant positions in the science of planets and destiny.

Rahu is also strong in the Virgo sign. Rahu has no sign of its own, so it impacts like the lord of any house, which it inhabits. If Rahu is sitting alone in the center or is in a triangular position with the lord of that house, then it influences the native more. As per the science of Astrology, Rahu gets stronger in the 3rd, 6th, and 11th houses. If Rahu aligns with an auspicious Lord, then the combination provides good results. Rahu deteriorates the attitude of any planet with which it comes together, informs Ganesha.
Rahu: It’s Other Implications
While the alliance of Venus and Rahu makes the native desirous, Rahu coming together with Jupiter gives birth to Guru Chandal Yoga. Rahu-Mars coming into a relationship with Scorpio leads to natives adopting the profession of intoxicants like opium, liquor, and other drugs. Rahu benefits such professions. On the other hand, if Rahu comes together with auspicious Mercury, it can facilitate the native to become a businessperson or a scientist. However, if Rahu comes together with Mercury in an inauspicious position, it can be unlucky for the natives.
There are various astrological solutions to such problems, like using our Rahu-Yantra, which can help negate the complications due to the influence of Rahu.
Rahu gives inauspicious results if Rahu is in the 6th, 8th or 12th house or if it exists in these houses in conjunction with the lord of the houses. Rahu also symbolizes knowledge, however, in the presence of malefic planets this attribute can have a reverse impact and it can make the native mentally weak or mentally imbalanced. It is said that Rahu produces different types of results in the horoscopes of different people. So, before listening about the impact of Rahu-Ketu from astrologers, you should understand your horoscope well.
