Good things never happen? Rahu can be blocking your path [Vedic Astrology]

A shadow lingers, persistent and heavy. It carries the weight of things forever beyond our grasp. Vedic astrology speaks of Rahu, a phantom planet, obscuring the truth. It veils reality, like a trick of the light, leading us down unseen paths. This feeling of denial is not by chance—it is Rahu’s doing, stirring a restless discontent. Rahu, insatiable, feeds desires that burn with false intensity, leaving behind only frustration. It clouds the mind, a fog that breeds poor choices, sabotaging opportunities that seemed within reach.

When Rahu enters sensitive houses or aligns with the Moon or Sun, chaos follows. A storm brews inside, disorienting and relentless. The houses, celestial rooms of fate, show where Rahu’s shadow falls deepest. The 1st house, where identity fractures, and the 7th, where bonds break and crumble. Rahu’s influence twists the signs, like a trickster god wearing masks. In Gemini and Virgo, intellect turns into manipulation; in Scorpio and Capricorn, desire becomes a burning obsession.

To lift the veil, Vedic remedies offer a fragile hope. Chanting mantras becomes a soft plea against the darkness. Rituals serve as desperate attempts to restore balance. Strengthening the Moon provides a beacon against Rahu’s storm. Cultivating mindfulness becomes a quiet rebellion against constant obsession. Rahu is not inherently malicious; rather, it reflects the debts we owe, a cruel mirror to our shadows. In understanding this, we navigate life’s complex labyrinth. We become aware of the phantom that walks beside us, its presence both a challenge and a guide.
