Ketu Experiences

  A major change in job, house, place, is almost inevitable and this settings chance paves the way for all that is about to come. There is a sudden dip in the intellectual capacity of the person, one who was considered brilliant during Mercury period transforms into “Gods’ Fool” and the sharp arrogant aura of Mercury is replaced by the “lost and foggy” look that becomes a trademark of the native during most of the Ketu Mahadasha . EDIT 2: KETU OFTEN THROWS A HONEY TRAP. YOU CAN GET INTO A NEW JOB, TRANSFER, RELATIONSHIP, WHICH LOOKS TEMPTING BUT CAN PROVES TO BE A TRAP. Avoid it at all costs. Contentment would save you, else you would get hammered in Ketu Mahadasha - Venus antardasha.  2. Ketu Mahadasha – Venus Antardasha: Paradise Lost-Hell on earth:   If there is oner period that sacres the hell out of me, then it is Ketu Mahadasha - Venus Antardasha period. Venus is the real “King of good times” all love, luxury, material comforts, and fun in life is brought to one...

Ketu Mahadasha Analysis : "Let go, or be dragged" -Zen Proverb Let's look into various phases of Ketu Mahadasha : Like all Mahadashas, Ketu Mahadasha is divided in 9 phases (Antardashas) of 9 planets. Here is the breakup of Antardashas: Period Years Months Days Ketu Mahadasha - Ketu Antardasha 0 4 27 Ketu Mahadasha  - Venus Antardasha 1 2 0 Ketu Mahadasha   - Sun Antardasha 0 4 6 Ketu Mahadasha  - Moon Antardasha 0 7 0 Ketu Mahadasha  - Mars Antardasha 0 4 27 Ketu Mahadasha  - Rahu Antardasha 1 0 18 Ketu Mahadasha  - Jupiter Antardasha 0 11 16 Ketu Mahadasha  - Shani Antardasha 1 1 9 Ketu Mahadasha  - Mercury Antardasha  0 11 27 I have seen Ketu Mahadasha give almost uniform results to most of the natives. It is very impartial and almost all people suffer in the same way. I will use a phrase for each of these dashas which contains the essence of all that happens during the period: Ketu Mahadasha – Ketu Antardasha period: The Big Bang: ...

  Ketu leaves you with only the essence of what you got, your soul.  You become a man of god:   Once a person realises that the toys and titles, and so called relations he or she had piled up are temporary and illusionary, there is but little trace of materialism left in one. After going through Ketu Mahadasha , they learn that there is only one true possession :one’s quintessential self or soul, and there is only one true relation that of the soul and the Super-Soul aka God.  Redemption and liberation:   This is the most desired effect of a Ketu dasha . Once you have realised the illusions of Maya, in the first half, and have worked your way to redemption in the second half, you come out wiser and liberated. I have seen people who have undergone this dasha behave with detached amusement in the next Venus Mahadasha that brings a fun, possessions, and relationships. The native remembers that these are temporary and can be taken away at any moment. Lessons of Ketu...

  Ketu Mahadasha takes away all that you were proud of. E.g. intelligence-gone, money-gone, relations-gone, career-gone. Again this happens in a swift and brutal manner. Ketu Mahadasha separates not like a surgeon but like a butcher. Few people are left clinging to anything once this period is done with them. They realise that they may end up losing anything at a moment’s notice. The grip of illusionary Maya is loosened on them and the lucky ones become detached.Read Saturn Mahadasha for more details.Read Saturn Mahadasha . You lose your ego:   Once you have lost all that you were proud of, there comes a day during Ketu Mahadasha (normally in the first half) when a man realises his helplessness and insignificance. Once all is taken away, the ego crumbles, and when it does, it is very liberating and life turns for the better.

  This shows  fully well that what they considered their intelligence, was a passing grace of mercury. The intellectual giants of Mercury dasha  fall flat and learn that they are little more than paws in the great game of planets.Read Saturn Mahadasha for more details. You lose your relation (a closest one):   Chidrakaraka Ketu, the planet which lost its own head at the time of birth, symbolises separation from a relation which was like a part of you. At least one (often more) of very close relations are separated from you in a very brutal manner that scars you for life.  You realise that no matter how close a relation is, everything is temporary. However, this detachment often serves the native well in times to come as Ketu Mahadasha takes away all that has become useless in present incarnation. This detached attitude also comes in handy during the Venus Mahadasha.    You lose your job:   Ketu Mahadasha is the Karka of job loses, resignations...

 I repeat, Ketu is NOT a malefic. It is the MOST spiritual of all planets, more than even Jupiter. However, it has a harsh way of delivering his lessons. He wants us to wake up to BIGGER and more important realties of Karma detachment, and spirituality. We have created a very Shani-Rahu kind of world where "My job", "My power", "My money" "My family" "My relationship" is all that we are worried about. Ketu has to show us that all these are fragile and impermanent trappings of ego. It goes to work...and starts hammering everything one by one.Read Saturn Mahadasha . Ketu Mahadasha is interested in a burning up boatloads of bad karma during its mahadasha. It would pile all your bad karma up, put you in the middle of it, and set it on fire. There are a few things which are almost sure to happen during a Ketu Mahadasha : You lose your head:   Guess this has something to do with Ketu not having a head. Coming out of brilliant Mercury Maha...

 This is a topic very, very close to my heart. Having gone through this most powerful and terrible of all Mahadashas, especially the poisonous first half of Ketu Mahadasha , I can feel the pain of anyone who is going through this period. This spiritual serpent planet is the least known but the most damaging of all planets. Most astrologers create unnecessary fear around Shani (Saturn). Shani-Shani- Shani is all you hear, I am out to dispel that myth with my Ketu-Ketu-Ketu narrative. While I would eventually write about all 9 Mahadashas, however, Ketu Mahadasha comes first and foremost for me, as this is the most difficult of all periods, and almost always gives uniform results irrespective the placement in chart. Every other planet may give a good or bad dasha, but Ketu Mahadasha is invariably harsh for anyone that goes through it. I have seen people undergo a good  SHANI MAHADASHA   , a good  RAHU MAHADASHA  even, but there is no such thing like a good Ketu ...
