The results of Rahu and Ketu transit is more pronounced for those in whose individual charts, Rahu or Ketu is placed in the nakshatras of Rahu and Ketu transiting during 2022-2023. It is even seen that if one is going through Rahu or Ketu mahadasas and their Rahu and Ketu are placed in Mesha or Tula, results will be pronounced. The effect will also be felt more if in an individual’s chart Moon is conjunct with either of these nodes in either Mesha or Tula. These nodes are known as karmic nodes and their placement in our natal chart represent the debt we carry from our previous birth (sanchita karma) related to those houses. When these nodes transit in certain houses, just see those house placements on your natal chart, say if in your natal chart Mesha is 5th house then you will see a trigger in the aspects related to children, you will enrol in some higher studies, you may get involved in a romantic relationship etc.
*These transit predictions are general in nature. But, an Individual’s chart analysis along with dasa predictions will give an accurate picture.

Rahu in the first house of kalapurusha will be very intense. It stresses “I”, and “Me”. It makes one aggressive, self-centered, and impulsive.
