Ketu is the south lunar node - the headless body of the demon Svarbhanu and the counterpart of Rahu. While Rahu represents worldly desires, Ketu represents spiritual liberation (moksha), detachment, and past-life karma. Ketu is the most spiritual planet, governing occult knowledge, mysticism, healing, and the path to enlightenment. A strong Ketu gives spiritual advancement, intuitive powers, success in research, and ability to heal others. A weak Ketu causes confusion about life purpose, skin diseases, sudden losses, and feelings of isolation. Ketu always sits exactly opposite Rahu in the chart, creating the karmic axis that defines the soul's evolutionary journey from past (Ketu) to future (Rahu).
