The origin of Vedic astrology is in India and is documented in the Vedic scriptures. Like Western astrology, Vedic astrology analyses the influence of the planets on people.

The practice of astrology requires dedication, knowledge and a lot of experience.

Because it deals with such sensitive subjects as people’s lives, the astrologer needs to have strong moral and ethical standards and be careful when telling their predictions to their clients.

The analysis starts with creating a birth chart for the moment of someone’s birth (or some other moment in other types of analysis).

The positions of the planets in that particular moment determine someone’s personality and potential in this lifetime.

Vedic astrology is founded on the idea that everything is predestined and that humans are born into this life at predestined moments to fulfill their destiny.

The analysis of the positions of planets in the houses of the birth chart and their relationships give a lot of insight about the person and their possible destiny. The most important are the signs and house placements of the planets.

Houses of the natal chart

There are 12 houses in the birth chart; those with planets inside give the most information to the astrologer. The houses with planets are strongly influenced by the energy of these planets. Every house has a specific meaning and areas of rulership.

The angular houses or the houses 1, 4, 7 and 10 are the most significant. They are also called cardinal houses or Kendra in Vedic astrology. The house 2, 5, 8, and 11 are called succedent or fixed houses, or Panapara in Vedic astrology. The house 3, 6, 9 and 12 are called cadent or mutable houses or Apoklima in Vedic astrology.

The houses in Vedic astrology can be divided on trinities, such as:

  • Trinity of Dharma (or the trinity of spiritual action) – houses 1, 5, and 9
  • Trinity of Artha (or the trinity of wealth) – houses 2, 6, and 10
  • Trinity of Kama (or the trinity of relationships) – houses 3, 7, and 11
  • Trinity of Moksha (or the trinity of final liberation of the soul) – houses 4, 8 and 12

Rahu – Basic Qualities

In Vedic astrology, Rahu is described as a snake or dragon swallowing the Sun, which then causes the eclipse of the Sun. Even though it is an imaginary point, in Vedic astrology, Rahu is considered a planet. It is a shadow planet.

Both Rahu and Ketu represent the points where the Sun and Moon paths intersect. Rahu is symbolically represented as the head of the dragon and Ketu is the tail of the dragon. Rahu is considered the north node of the Moon and Ketu is the south node of the Moon.

Rahu has a bad reputation. It is known for despising authority and breaking society rules.

The traits of this imaginary planet are deception, secrecy and general naughtiness. It reveals the dark side of human nature and every individual in person.

Rahu in the birth chart shows the way a person manipulates other people. Every human being possesses a manipulative side to some extent, and Rahu shows how prominent that trait is in a person and the ways the person likely experiences this trait.

For example, when someone has Rahu in Cancer, they might be prone to emotionally manipulate others into doing things they want them to.

The position of Rahu can also show whether the person is likely to seek fame and recognition, and the ways they are likely to do that. For example, someone with Rahu in Scorpio might try to gain fame through their passionate nature.
