A Little Bit About Rahu
and Ketu or the Moons Nodes
The North and South Nodes of the
Moon are call Rahu and Ketu by Vedic
astrologers, and are given great
attention in the natal chart. The
Nodes of the Moon are also called
the head and tail of the dragon by
Chinese astrologers. The
tendency in most modern western
astrology systems has been to ignore
their very existence, and in the
process, lose a wealth of important
information.
The Nodes of the Moon are points in
space where the Moon's path intersects
with the Earth's ecliptic, ie., the
Earth's path around the Sun intersects
the moon's path around the
earth. These points are where
eclipses occur. The North Node
called Rahu, and the South Node called
Ketu, are the path of consciousness
where you need to grow the most
throughout this life time. They
are an axis or polarity to each other
where Ketu is development that you
have completed and Rahu is where you
are underdeveloped in relation to
Ketu's placement. They are what
brings you here to this present life
in the first place. So in short,
Ketu is where you are most comfortable
and feel at home, so you have strong
desires to be there, and Rahu is the
unknown and which you have strong
desires towards too. Desire,
desire, desire. They are usually your
largest driving desires that need to
be reckoned with and resolved into
each other.
About
Liz
What got
me interested in the
serious study of vedic
astrology was the effect
of the North and South
nodes of the moon upon
your entire life.
After studying some
western and other
obscure methods of
astrology that utilize
the moon's nodes, I
wanted to go deeper into
the Hindu Vedic systems,
also known as Jyotish,
because they have the
most knowledge of the
moons nodes, called Rahu
and Ketu. I was
very lucky in that no
sooner than I put my
desire out to the
universe, I was directed
to the work of Ernst
Wilhelm, a brilliant
student of the ancient
vedic astrology texts,
particularly those of
Parashara, Jaimini and
the Surya
Siddhanta. I have
been an avid student of
his work and methods
uncovered ever since,
and offer this wealth of
knowledge and methods in
my own work. I
also use Kala software,
the only software to do
all the calculations
that are necessary for
this work.
