Ketu in Capricorn

Ketu in Capricorn

Today, Ketu in Capricorn. 

A thing to remember here is that these posts are strictly meant for the particular planet position. Like, today we are looking at Ketu in Capricorn, so the description given here may change for you if your Ketu is although in the sign of Capricorn but in conjunction with or aspected by other planets. - 

Just like Rahu, Ketu also represents illusion as both are illusionary planets but the difference is that Ketu is also the one who removes the illusion and brings enlightenment. Besides this, Ketu represents isolation, separation, spirituality,mystical world, other dimension means things related to alien world, also represents Son, Dog, Intuition, research ability, curious nature, things which we have already achieved in past life and not much concerned to perform in this life. 

Capricorn is the 10th sign of zodiac belt, hence it represents many things related with 10th house of horoscope like Law and Order, Government, Authority, Organisation, Discipline etc. Besides it also represents World outside your home and people, Fear and Anxiety etc. Capricorn is consisted of next 2 and half Nakshatra, i.e. Uttar-Ashadha, Shravana and Dhanishtha. Capricorn is ruled by Saturn and that's why it represents Fear and Anxiety.

Recently I have come across of the view that Rahu and Ketu don't have aspects on 5th or 9th house, for the simple reason that they are shadow planets and for aspects you need a sight not shadow. I am yet to verify it on at least 50 charts, so for now I will continue with traditional approach of 5th and 9th aspects of Ketu. 

This is going to be an easy one. When Ketu comes in the sign of Capricorn, the person feels a natural isolation from the concept of leadership and taking bigger responsibility. It also includes a natural isolation from working under any authority or wielding any authority over others. They just want to do their work and stay away from office politics. They are best when they work for themselves. Working under others or fixed job is not meant for them. Also whichever house this position falls, they will feel isolated from authority of that house. Like, in 7th house, they wont like authoritative spouse. In 5th house, they may not like authoritative lover. So, this position is in complete contrast of authority. 

As always, Ketu's role in Capricorn can be effected by the nakshatra Ketu is in. Like, if Ketu is in Uttar-Ashadha Nakshatra, we have to look at Sun's position as Uttar-Ashadha's lord is Sun. If Ketu is in Shravana Nakshatra, then we need to look at Moon's position as Shravana's lord is Moon. Likewise, in Dhanishtha Nakshatra, it will be effected by Mars. 

Sign-lord wise, Saturn is lord of Capricorn. So, to finally decide about Ketu we need to also check the dignity of Saturn.
