Rahu (North Node) in 10th and Ketu (South Node) in 4th Axis Astrology





Rahu (North Node, obsession) and Ketu (South Node, let go) are the soul purpose of life. Rahu is the future and Ketu is past. Rahu shows what we want, it is obsession over those things where it sits in the birth chart. Ketu is our past mind conditioning, it shows where we already dealt with and we don’t want to deal anymore. Rahu and Ketu axis shows that, in which area a person is immature and needs to be matured and in which area a person is matured. Where Rahu and Ketu axis fall in the birth chart it shows the most spiritual growth for the native in this life. Rahu and Ketu are the points where Sun (soul), Moon (mind), and earth (body) intersect in the sky. This point is very powerful and it forces us to think about who we are, why we are here, and what life is about. Rahu and Ketu are the forces which connect us with the divine power.


Rahu (North Node) and Ketu (South Node) in astrology are the demons. In hindu mythology the story of churning ocean of milk is related to our subconscious mind. Rahu and Ketu are lunar nodes which play a very important role in evolving the human consciousness. Rahu and Ketu are the confusion, illusion, smoke and split thought of the mind. They always help to evolve consciously. They are always on the opposite axis therefore they are always 180 degrees apart. Although they are not the physical planet, they are the most influential forces in our life. Rahu/Ketu axis is the main force of karmic desire. 


Rahu is the head who always wants to eat and it is obsessed over those things where it is placed. It is our inner present desire of this life. Rahu is an obsession for those things where it is placed in the birth chart.


Ketu is the body without a head; it is our past life experience. Detachment, disinterest for those things where it is placed in the birth chart. The house that Rahu located in the birth chart determines where there is impulse to explore new possibilities and where to engage in new experience to assist your greater growth and life purpose.


So what happened when Rahu/Ketu axis fell in the 10th and and 4th house. Houses are the practical areas of life. Rahu placement in the house shows the area of life in which we need to develop mentally and Ketu shows the area of life where we need to withdraw ourselves.


The 4th house is the house of home, where a person comes and relaxes. It is the place where we feel most peaceful at heart. It is the house of a mother, and in mother arms everyone feels good and peaceful. It is the most vulnerable house in astrology and if this house damages then the native has a hard time to achieve inner peace.


The 10th house is the house of career, responsibility, worldly status, outer pressure of responsibility, and achievement in life. It is the house of the father and sense of responsibility from the father. When Rahu (North Node) is in 10th house and Ketu (South Node) in 4th house the native is obsessed towards materialistic pursuit and responsibility and withdraws from domestic life.


Ketu in 4th house shows that, these natives pampered so much, and keeps them away from household responsibility. This makes them emotionally secure, but lacks in managing the outer world.  Rahu in the 10th house shows the native is very materialistic and has responsible nature. Because they kept away from responsibility in their previous life they want to learn how to manage the external world and responsibilities. They want to find their identity in this materialistic world and pursue their personal ambition. They escape from a comfortable life to the outer world and want to do something. They are authoritative figures in society and get many opportunities to be successful in the world. Rahu in the house of actions and ambition brings worldly success. They can be builders, creators, and the person of authority.
