Kala Sarpa Yoga
When all the planets are on the same side of the Rahu/Ketu axis, Kala Sarpa Yoga is formed.
The life of a person with such a combination in the map is like a rollercoaster: the movement goes either rapidly up, then sharply down.
When the transit nodes pass through their natal positions, the jolt is felt most strongly.
If Ketu first stands behind the Lagna, and then Rahu, the unfavorable Kala Sarpa Yoga gets rid of its evil qualities and becomes Kala Amrita Yoga.
The location of Rahu in Vishakha nakshatra at 20-26° Libra also eliminates the negative effects of Kala Sarpa.
However, if any planet is connected to one of the nodes, Kala Amrita Yoga ceases to operate.
Kala Sarpa Yoga usually does not affect a person’s mental faculties, physical health and longevity.
The problems are mainly related to external circumstances.
It makes itself felt during the periods of the Lunar nodes or during their transit through the Ascendant, the initial Moon or the Sun.
The aspect of a benefic planet on the lagna, lagnesha or lunar nodes reduces negative effects.
Manifestations of Kala Sarpa Yoga especially annoy a person when transit Rahu/Ketu approach their natal degrees.

RAHU AND KETU IN CONJUNCTION WITH OTHER PLANETS
Like other planets, Rahu and Ketu enter into relationships with other planets through conjunctions, aspect, or being in the signs or nakshatras of these planets.
For example, if Rahu is in the sign of Gemini, this indicates a strong connection of Rahu with Mercury, the lord of Gemini, and during the period of Rahu, the influence of Mercury will be felt.
Similarly, the position of the nodes in the nakshatras colors them with the properties of the planet of the owner of the nakshatra.
For example, if Rahu is in Bharani (nakshatra of Venus), it will also be colored by the properties of Venus, and during the period of Rahu, the indicators of Venus will also appear.
That is, the owner of the sign and the nakshatra in which the nodes are located has a complex effect on the behavior of Rahu-Ketu in the chart.
If
a planet is in the same sign as Rahu or Ketu, it is called conjunction (yoga)
, no matter how many degrees separate them.
However, the closer they are to each other, the stronger the mutual influence.
If there are 5 degrees or less between them, the connection effect will be maximum.
Rahu increases the energy of the planet with which it is connected through yoga, and Ketu dissipates the energy of the planet.
Since Rahu carries the energy of expansion, and Ketu sucks everything like a black hole.
RAHU IN CONJUNCTION WITH OTHER PLANETS
CONNECTING RAHU AND THE SUN
The combination of Rahu and the Sun brings self-affirmation or increased egoism, self-aggrandizement, arrogance, the desire for independence, rejection of authorities, conflict with the authorities.
Gives success abroad or in connection with foreigners.
The sign of the zodiac in which this conjunction occurs gives it an additional color:
- In fiery signs (Aries, Leo, Sagittarius) Rahu + the Sun especially strengthens the ego and makes a person a rebel, a revolutionary.
- In the signs of the earth (Taurus, Virgo, Capricorn), Rahu + the Sun makes a person overly practical, materialistic or critical.
- In the signs of air (Gemini, Libra, Aquarius) Rahu + Sun , this combination is softened, and there is less selfishness.
- In the signs of water (Cancer, Scorpio, Pisces), Rahu + the Sun enhances creativity, imagination, emotions.
CONNECTING RAHU AND THE MOON
The Rahu + Moon
conjunction
enhances the lunar energy and the mind.
Extrasensory abilities, increased intuition may appear;
this is especially evident in the water signs (Cancer, Scorpio, Pisces) and Aquarius.
If the Moon is weak in sign or house (in the sign of Scorpio or in the 6th, 8th, 12th houses), this can cause mental disorders, fears, neuroses, psychosis, nightmares, emotional imbalance.
There may be a tendency to hallucinate, paranoia, a tendency to solitude.
When the Moon is strong, this combination will strengthen the house in which this yoga is present.
For example, in the 12th house,
Rahu + Moon
can make a person a seer or a prophet, can give life abroad.
CONNECTING RAHU AND MARS
The combination of
Rahu + Mars
is also called
Vijaya yoga
, which means the desire for victory by any means, promiscuity in means.
Strengthens the energy of Mars – a person needs to constantly act.
Downside: Aggression, cruelty, insensitivity.
When
the connection of Rahu and Mars
occurs through an aspect, it manifests itself softer.
This combination enhances the inanimate indicators of the house, but spoils the living indicators.
For example, in the 4th house it can give real estate, strong intuition, but will create problems with the mother and destroy inner peace, can make a person cunning and cruel.
Albert Einstein
Mars + Rahu
in the 8th in Capricorn was given unique research abilities, he made a world-class discovery.
CONJUNCTION OF RAHU AND MERCURY
Enhances the mind, language, communication and writing skills, wit, resourcefulness;
Yoga Rahu + Mercury
is best
manifested in Gemini, Virgo and Aquarius.
For example, Helena Blavatsky has Rahu and Mercury in the 3rd – a medium and a writer.
Edgar Cayce (American mystic, medium, seer) has
Rahu + Mercury
in the 8th house.
If Mercury is struck, it can make a person a fraudster, a schemer, or he will pointlessly accumulate information, send spam, spread gossip, rumors, misinformation.
For example, the founder of the financial pyramid “MMM” Sergei Mavrodi Rahu exactly – degrees to degrees – aspects Mercury, and in the D9 chart Rahu, Mercury and Saturn are connected in Aries in the 6th house under the sign aspect of Mars.
CONJUNCTION OF RAHU AND JUPITER
The combination of
Rahu + Jupiter
gives material expansion and increased practicality in the signs of the Earth (Taurus, Virgo, Capricorn);
in Sagittarius and Aquarius – charity;
in Virgo and Gemini – the development of the mind.
When Rahu and Jupiter are connected through mutual aspects, it gives success in teaching, writing, philosophy.
For example, Bernard Shaw had
Rahu and Jupiter
in Pisces – a philosopher and a writer.
Mick Jagger (lead singer of the Rolling Stones) in Cancer in the 3rd house
Rahu + Jupiter
gives amazing energy – he has been jumping around the stage for more than 50 years.
But between Jupiter and Rahu there is a fundamental contradiction, because.
Jupiter is law and Rahu is lawlessness.
If Jupiter is weakened, then this combination can create legal problems for a person.
CONNECTING RAHU AND VENUS
Rahu + Venus
gives a strong desire for comfort and luxury, success in the field of Venus, strong lust, uncontrollable desires.
If Venus is strong, it will give compassion, love for people.
For example, in the horoscope of Jesus Christ,
Venus with Rahu
in the 3rd house in Scorpio is love for brothers / sisters.
Sigmund Freud has
Rahu + Venus
in the 7th house in Aries.
“Sex is the basis of everything” is his philosophy.
CONNECTING RAHU AND SATURN
Enhances Saturn, efficiency, endurance, but can give a very emotional and even depressive nature in water signs (Cancer, Scorpio, Pisces).
In the signs of the earth (Taurus, Virgo, Capricorn) this can give practicality, but emotional dryness, rigidity (if there is a connection with Mars).
In air signs (Gemini, Libra, Aquarius) this can give a philosophical, detached nature.
Especially in Aquarius.
In fire signs (Aries, Leo, Sagittarius) it can give dictators, politicians or fanatics.
Usually the combination of
Rahu + Saturn
creates difficulties for the indicators of the house where it is located, but then the situation gradually improves.
For example, in the 2nd house it can give at first great financial problems, which will gradually go away.
However, this combination gives a good effect only for non-living indicators at home.
Live performance suffers.
