Rahu (North Node) and Ketu (South Node) Nodes of the Moon. These are the shadows of the Moon which cannot be seen normally but can be seen on eclipse days only. These nodes are not the planets, but their effect can be felt in a very stronger way. These nodes act as a magnetic field which cannot be seen but can be felt, like a magnetic field grabs the iron objects. These nodes are karmic forces which bring the issues of the past life to be solved and positive changes can be done with our mental effort for our betterment for the future. The transits of Rahu and Ketu through the houses will also show the areas affected by eclipses at any given time. The axis Rahu (North Node) and Ketu (South Node) in Houses work together during transits only. The eclipses pinpoint the energy escalation in the axis in the house, both creating crises and giving answers to our life.

Rahu will transit in the sign of Taurus, ruled by Venus, sign of family, finance, assets, and speech. Ketu will transit in the sign of Scorpio ruled by Mars, sign of transformation, change, unexpected gains and loss, and spirituality. Most astrologers considered Rahu exalted in Taurus and Ketu exalted in Scorpio and give good results but that is not true. Rahu in Taurus makes a person too materialistic which is not good. Taurus is the sign of Venus which denotes love, sex, luxury, comforts, and relationships. And when Rahu is in Taurus it craves for all these things too much which makes a person imbalanced in his behavior. Rahu in Taurus also seeks what do you truly value and something in you needs to know yourself deeper and to prove yourself worthy. The focus will be on finding what you value and what nurtures you.
Ketu in Scorpio helps you to find a spiritual sense of belonging to life that is not an easy work. It’s a profound spiritual calling to find spirit in matter, and to find yourself in “right relationship” with others. On a negative side it can make people very unstable. It makes people too detached with family and friends and looking for other meanings in life which are very unrealistic. During this transit, Rahu helps you to achieve your desires but at the end you will not be satisfied, while Ketu supports your understanding about the mystical world.
These two signs are so opposite of each other and so hard to grasp when nodes transits into this sign or you have in your birth chart. It is just like a situation where you can’t stay or can’t leave. It's kind of a muddy situation. Rahu in Taurus gives so many attachments but still not satisfied and you want to get out of it but you can't. It is tug of war. It's a push and pull kind of situation. Sometimes It's so hard to leave someone or sometimes it's so hard to be attached to someone. Sometimes you are in this world and sometimes you are in another world which is not concrete. This is the most difficult sign of nodes to have.
