RAHU- ILLUSION ABOUT SELF AND KETU-ONENESS WITH THE ALMIGHTY

Rahu's symbol is like a horseshoe/Omega 'Ω' which means there will be a peak period of your life & a downfall which is the function of Rahu as it should be, so always the rewards of Rahu are temporary in nature, it can carry you to top & drops you without mercy. But Ketu is totally Different, ketu first reforms and then elevates the Soul for attaining innermost joy with spirituality. Rahu makes you desirous, obsessive, and blind (ignorant). You are born in this human body because you have passion for something, some desire, some unfinished desire, unfinished business, unfinished karma born out of your desires . Rahu is a cold-blooded snake coiled around the Lord Shiva's neck because he has controlled his rahu .

Rahu is a saturn guided missile. It just acts as per Saturn's instructions (One's karma). Saturn is a slow moving planet and it has Rahu, a guided missile to perform/execute/punish tasks on his behalf as Saturn being Slow and placed far away from the Earth and Luminaries, The Nodes Especially Rahu is the Adjutant of Saturn .Among the Deities, Lord Shiva is the supreme ocean of compassion . Without his consent, the tiniest ion will not stir. The Sustainer Lord Shri Vishnu is considered to be the protector of the world generally depicted as resting on the king of snakes called Kalswarup Seshnag, with Goddess Laxmi by his side.

Rahu is the demon of desires and we should learn from our Deities how to control the obsessions (Rahu).Planetary placement is one thing and your own "Will-power" is the other dimension of your life.

With strong will-power -you certainly can raise the level of your consciousness- your awareness and keep your Rahu in command like Shri Vishnu & Lord Shiva.

To be Honest -In Kaliyuga ,it is extremely tough to win over the Nodes.
