Very Special Rahu Ketu Transit 2023
Rahu Ketu transits happen every 18 months, the karmic planets Rahu moves from Aries to Pisces and Ketu moves from Libra to Virgo on 30th Oct. 2023 and will be in the respective signs until May 18, 2025. This transit is very special because Rahu and Ketu had completed their zodiac journey i.e. from Aries to Pisces in the backward direction in 18 years, some of us may remember the important events that happened in our life in/around 2005-06. The nodal planets Rahu and Ketu, considered inauspicious can strongly influence and affect the houses they occupy. Though they do not have physical existence like other planets, these powerful entities indicate the past life karma and how you will be experiencing it in the present life.
Astronomically, Rahu and Ketu denote the points of intersection of the paths of the Sun and the Moon as they move on the celestial sphere. Rahu and ketu always move in retrograde motion. Rahu is capable of generating good interest in worldly comforts and materialistic benefits like wealth and luxuries; while Ketu can create a strong spiritual inclination and can even lead one in the path of enlightenment. Ketu is generally referred to as a “shadow” planet; it is believed to have a tremendous impact on human lives and also the whole creation.
