Rahu-Ketu Transit — Effects, Duration & Powerful Remedies

Complete guide to Rahu and Ketu transit effects on all zodiac signs. Duration, career impact, health issues, and effective remedies for shadow planets.

Rahu and Ketu, the shadow planets (Chaya Grahas), transit each sign for approximately 18 months. Their movement creates dramatic shifts in career, relationships, and spiritual growth.

Understanding Rahu-Ketu Axis

Rahu and Ketu are always exactly opposite each other, creating an axis of karmic lessons. Rahu represents worldly desires and future karma, while Ketu represents spiritual liberation and past karma.

Rahu Transit Effects

When Rahu transits through a house, it amplifies that house's significations with obsessive energy. Favorable transits (3rd, 6th, 10th, 11th from Moon) bring unexpected gains, while challenging ones create confusion.

Ketu Transit Effects

Ketu's transit brings detachment and spiritual insights to the affected house. It can cause losses in material terms but gains in wisdom and spiritual evolution.
