The Descending Node of the Moon (South Node)
was known as Ketu in Vedic Astrology. Ancient
seers had given him the portfolio of Self-Actualisation
(Moksha). His position in the 12th (the house of
final emancipation or Moksha) is extolled highly by
the savants. Along with the spiritual planets, Jupiter
and Saturn, Ketu should be in a good position in the
horoscope for one to attain to the Divine Crown.
Ketu in the Ascendant
Ketu in the Ascendant makes one intelligent and endowed
with fortune. Will be quarrelsome, will have less wealth, will
be melancholic and will have the ability to make others
quarrel.
But if Ketu is in the signs of Capricorn or Aquarius these
effects will be invalid as he is powerful in these signs.
Ketu in the Second House
Will be loquacious, will be devoid of eduation and will have
a crooked look. Will be learned and will crave for others'
wealth.
Ketu in the Third House
Will be noble and charitable. Will be valorous and adventurous.
Will love evil people. Will destroy enemies and will enjoy
wealth, prosperity and all sorts of enjoyments. Will be a genius
of a high order. Will be versatile and will destroy opposition.
Ketu in the Fourth House
Medical Astrology postulates that heart may be afflicted
if any malefic is posited in the fourth. (As the Fourth House
rules the heart). Will be devoid of happiness, landed
properties, relatives and conveyances. All relatives
will become your enemies. This position of the South Node
is detrimental to getting legacy from mother.
Ketu in the Fifth House
Will be cruel, will possess an adamantine will & will not
get much happiness from progeny. Will have disorders of
the digestive tract. Will be afflicted by many a disease.
Will love sin and will be devoid of happiness.
Ketu in the Sixth House
Medical Astrology postulates that if a malefic is posited
in the sixth, stomach disorders will haunt the native.
Will be the leader of your community, Will have high education
and will be endowed with many a virtue. Will love relatives.
Will be proud and vainglorious. Will have allround knowledge
and liberality.
Ketu in the Seventh House
Will be devoid of happiness from spouse and will love women
of dubious character. Will be devoid of prosperity. Will be
melancholic and will be a Machiavelli. Will love travel and will
land in troublesome situations.
Ketu in the Eighth House
Will be intelligent and will have high concentration. Will be
afflicted by weapons. Will not have much longevity. Will love
other's wealth and women. Will be miserly. Will be famous
and will have leadership qualities. This position of the South
Node in the eighth indicates Karmic backlog.
Ketu in the Ninth House
Will be sinful, poor and will be devoid of paternal happiness.
Will be lustful and will not have much penchant for Religion
and Morality. Will be a Kapha-type, in ayurvedic terminology.
Will be proud and chivalrous. Will criticise the noble and will
lower himself by committing heinous acts.
Ketu in the Tenth House
Will love people and will earn the name of philanthropist.
Will be quite rich and will have philosophic ability. Will be
good in sculpturing. Will be efficient, famous and endowed
with professional skill. This dominance of the South Node
on the Meridien is good for professional enhancement.
Ketu in the Eleventh House
Will be wealthy with high education. Will have fame and
altruistic merit. Will enjoy the pleasures of the mundane
a lot. Will be versatile endowed with many good qualities.
Will be liberal and generous. Will be very popular because
of philanthropic deeds.
Ketu in the Twelfth House
Will be fickle and ever changing. Eyes may be afflicted. Will be fond
of travel. Will try to conceal sins. Will be sorrowful and melancholic.
Will have dubious character. But this position of the South Node
is conducive to immense occult power as Ketu represents the
Occult.
Astrology and the Science of Numbers (Numerology)
Is the Absolute the Numberless Infinite? Or has the Absolute anything
to do with numbers? Well, Pythagorus inclined to the latter
view. Reality, he said, is symbolised by numbers.

Gem Therapy
Modern scientific research has proved that even secondary gems
increase planetary rays and these can be used for healing purposes.
Howard Beckman (www.p-g-a.org) writes "One example is we
have identified obvious beneficial effects of using white sapphire
for increasing planetary rays of Venus from our own research over
many years. The secretary of the P G A, Mr Richard Shaw Brown,
(www.agt-gems.com)through his 3 decades in this field of planetary
gemology has also proven the efficacy of certain colours of the
tourmaline family for increasing benefic planetary rays of Mercury
and the Sun."
Astrology, Holistic Medicine & Ayurveda
Symbolism behind Vedic temples
Man has three bodies - physical, astral and causal. The outer wall of the
Vedic temple represents the physical body of man. The inner wall
represents the astral body and the innermost wall represents the
Causal body. Deep within these three bodies is the Self, the Atman
who is represented by the Deity! The word temple is derived from
the Latin word tempulum, a place where Law and Justice can be
administered. The principle behind the temple, is Know Thyself!
Am I a god, then? Yes.
In these pure features I behold
Creative Nature to soul unfold (Goethe)
In other words man suffers from three types of illnesses - physical,
mental and spiritual. Holistic Medicine takes the Tripod of Life - Body,
mind and Self into consideration.
A good site where you can get quality information about Holistic Medicine
is www.holistic-alt.com
Vedic Holistic Medicine (Ayurveda) maintains that not only the
physical factor but the other factors - mental and spiritual play a
pivotal role in the health of the patient.
More info about Ayurveda can be had from http://www.chakrapaniayurveda.com.
Astrology & Yoga Therapy
The root Cause of all Disease - Bhoga or Sensory enjoyments
Bhoga (enjoyments of the senses) is Roga (Disease). It can only be
cured by Yoga (Divine Alchemy).
All food that is tasty is detrimental to the body, declares Prakriti
Therapy. The food which cometh from Nature, fruits and vegetables,
are alkaline by nature. Maximum health is in an alkaline body. We can
only be healthy if we keep a 80%- 20% ratio. (80% alkalinity & 20%
acidity). This means we have to eat more natural foods & less processed
foods (which are more or less acidic). Truly speaking, processed
foods, even though they taste well, are robbers as they rob us of our
natural, vibrant health.
Astrology & Occult Vibratory Chemistry (Tantra)
The Serpentine Power in individual bodies, the Kundalini, is the
coiled Energy in humans, which rises during Meditation and Prayer.
When She (Kundalini), the miscrocosmic power of the macrocosmic
Shakti, rises from from the Root Chakra and reaches the other Chakras,
siddhis or paranormal powers maniest. Clairvoyance, clairaudience,
distant healing, the ability to see Auras and ultimately Trikala-jnana
(the power to know past, present and future) all manifest in the aspirant.
The aspirant should not be intoxicated by these siddhis. If he tries to
exhibit the siddhis or paranormal powers, he may not reach the Goal of Life.
Instead he should ignore these powers of the mind and continue his Tapas
till he is liberated.
Books as the source of knowledge
The Greek Biblion or the Sankrit Veda means Knowledge which is
represented by books. Books, therefore, represent the Tree of
Knowledge (the Bodhi Tree), whose branches all sciences are!
