About Planets
The Indian Astrology distinguishes the destiny and traits
of an individual that are associated with the positions
of the planets and the date, time and place of birth.
The Indian astrology considers the movement of two luminaries
namely the Sun and the Moon, five major planets (Mercury,
Mars, Saturn, Venus and Jupiter) and the two nodal points
of the Moon i.e Rahu and Ketu.
Ketu
Ketu is an imaginary planet or a node that is positioned
where the earth's trajectory around the Sun and the
Moon's trajectory around the Earth meet. It is believed
to represent the tail of demon. Both Rahu and Ketu are
the parts of the same danava(demon) but are 180 degree
apart. When Ketu, Sun and Moon lie in the same zodiacal
longitude lunar eclipse takes place. Those ruled by
Ketu, are secret adversaries and relates to people in
pharmaceuticals industries, doctors and astrologers.
Both imaginary nodes are the mysterious forces and show
karmic and spiritual influences in the birth chart.
Ketu also does not rule any zodiac sign since it is
not a real planet.
