WEBVTT 00:00:00.110 --> 00:00:03.629 Hi wonderful people, welcome to my channel. Now 00:00:03.629 --> 00:00:06.169 that I have finished some parts of giving you 00:00:06.169 --> 00:00:09.109 some generalities of how to examine Rahu and 00:00:09.109 --> 00:00:11.410 Ketu. These are just small aspects. There are 00:00:11.410 --> 00:00:14.050 many aspects to these things. Jyotish is like 00:00:14.050 --> 00:00:17.969 peeling an onion. It's many many layers interwoven 00:00:17.969 --> 00:00:20.190 into one another. It's not just one thing and 00:00:20.190 --> 00:00:23.809 I'll give you an example. For example, speaking 00:00:23.809 --> 00:00:27.829 of Rahu and Ketu. Okay, so Rahu and Ketu also 00:00:27.829 --> 00:00:31.149 represent your ancestral karma, not just yours. 00:00:31.469 --> 00:00:34.869 One of the things that astrologers fail to decipher 00:00:34.869 --> 00:00:39.090 in the mainstream is that they try to personalize 00:00:39.090 --> 00:00:42.350 everything. Everything is your karma, not really. 00:00:43.450 --> 00:00:45.990 For example, when it comes to Rahu and Ketu, 00:00:46.689 --> 00:00:49.090 these are abstract energies. These are the push 00:00:49.090 --> 00:00:52.350 and pull energies in duality. Why are we faced 00:00:52.350 --> 00:00:54.590 with that? I have seen so many struggle with 00:00:54.590 --> 00:00:57.909 the idea that I am not obsessed with this heart 00:00:57.909 --> 00:01:00.649 of hearts, but why am I still having such people 00:01:00.649 --> 00:01:03.130 show up in my life? Why am I having such things 00:01:03.130 --> 00:01:07.489 going on tendencies? You inherit the ancestral 00:01:07.489 --> 00:01:10.269 karma and in Ketu's case, it is said that it 00:01:10.269 --> 00:01:14.590 is from mitochondrial DNA, your mother's maternal 00:01:14.590 --> 00:01:18.290 lineage on the mother's side or the XX chromosome 00:01:18.290 --> 00:01:22.409 side. Everything to do with your maternal grandmother 00:01:22.409 --> 00:01:26.790 and so on. The matrilineal lineage. You inherit 00:01:26.790 --> 00:01:30.269 that as Ketu in your chart, in the nakshatra 00:01:30.269 --> 00:01:34.310 etc etc. So the Ketu stands for the maternal 00:01:34.310 --> 00:01:37.549 side of things. Rahu on the opposite side stands 00:01:37.549 --> 00:01:41.829 for paternal grandfather things. So you might 00:01:41.829 --> 00:01:47.189 have inherited All the obsessions and the compulsions 00:01:47.189 --> 00:01:49.650 of your paternal grandfather and they say it 00:01:49.650 --> 00:01:53.109 goes up to seven generations up in your lineage 00:01:53.109 --> 00:01:57.510 So it's you can imagine how complex this thing 00:01:57.510 --> 00:01:59.829 gets isn't it that rabbit hole if you want to 00:01:59.829 --> 00:02:03.950 go down there It's not just the individual so 00:02:03.950 --> 00:02:07.069 in counseling coming to counseling coming to 00:02:07.069 --> 00:02:10.569 Jyotish Do not personalize your chart too much 00:02:10.569 --> 00:02:15.159 to do with you Do not One of the dangers that 00:02:15.159 --> 00:02:18.599 pitfalls and the labels people get thrown on 00:02:18.599 --> 00:02:23.719 is this is all your stuff. Not exactly. If you 00:02:23.719 --> 00:02:26.039 look at your life and if you look at your relatives, 00:02:26.199 --> 00:02:28.080 your family, your friends, your difficulties 00:02:28.080 --> 00:02:30.620 you went through, the boss, the friend, all the 00:02:30.620 --> 00:02:33.639 rest of it, you think I didn't really ask for 00:02:33.639 --> 00:02:35.900 any of this stuff. Sometimes you might feel very 00:02:35.900 --> 00:02:38.259 disjointed from the whole drama that goes on 00:02:38.259 --> 00:02:41.819 in your private human world, isn't it? And I've 00:02:41.819 --> 00:02:43.990 seen it even in my clients. And it's natural. 00:02:44.530 --> 00:02:48.789 It's with all of us. So think of Rahu and Ketu 00:02:48.789 --> 00:02:52.530 also as your ancestral karma which you have inherited. 00:02:52.789 --> 00:02:54.509 When you take on a body you have to bargain. 00:02:54.770 --> 00:02:58.110 There's a trade -off. You're coming into a lineage 00:02:58.110 --> 00:02:59.710 which has its own karma.
