  1. Ketu

    Ketu is the descending lunar node. 'Ketu' is said to be the body of Rahu, after the head of the asura was cut off by God Vishnu. In Hindu mythology, 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. In some special circumstances it helps someone achieve the zenith of fame. Ketu is often depicted with a gem or star on his head signifying a mystery light. Astronomically, Ketu and Rahu denote the points of intersection of the paths of the Sun and the Moon as they move on the celestial sphere. Therefore, Rahu and Ketu are respectively called the north and the south lunar nodes. The fact that eclipses occur when the Sun and the Moon are at one of these points gives rise to the myth of the swallowing of the Sun and the Moon by the demon snake. In ancient Tamil astrological scripts, Ketu was considered as incarnation of Indira.During a war with Asuras, Indira was defeated and took a passive form and a subtle state as "Ketu". It was the time, Indira spent realizing his past mistakes, failures and that lead to spirituality towards Lord Shiva. It was considered, "Ketu" being responsible for Moktcha, Sanyasa, Self Realization, Gnana, Wavering nature, Restlessness, Endocrine system and Slender physique. People with good aspects from "Ketu" were Great Doctors, Priests, Thinkers, Movie stars and Social workers. Though these people with good aspects of "Ketu" attain great heights, but they tend to be mentally detached, would not get material pleasure and joy through their great heights in social life. Gandhi and Buddha were some examples.
