“6. Influence of Rahu on health and destiny

Rahu’s position in the fourth house not only affects the emotional state and living conditions, but can also significantly affect a person’s health and destiny. Rahu aspects the 12th and 8th houses, which leads to sudden and unpredictable turns in life. These periods may involve isolation, such as temporary hospitalization due to illness or forced confinement. Sometimes these isolations can occur due to moves or deteriorating conditions at the current place of residence.

Rahu and Ketu being on the axis of the kendras (1st, 4th, 7th, 10th houses) negatively affects health, especially if Rahu is in any way associated with the first house or its ruler. Rahu and Ketu periods can bring significant health problems. It is important to consider the relationship of these planets to other elements of the horoscope for more accurate predictions.

7. Ketu’s position in the tenth house

Ketu in the tenth house usually symbolizes unconditional intuition and the ability to make no mistakes when it comes to achieving success and building a career. A person with this position understands how social hierarchy works and often becomes a politician, administrator or public figure. Rahu in the fourth house, being the prototype of Rahu in Cancer, indicates a person’s tendency to decide the fate of the masses, which makes this combination “royal”.

However, if Saturn’s influence is added to this position, such as Saturn aspecting Ketu or Saturn ruling the tenth house, the person can become a workaholic and will be obsessed with his work and professionalism. In the absence of Saturn’s influence, the person does not show excessive zeal in career.

Work with Ketu in the tenth house may be associated with places of isolation or secrecy, such as hospitals, prisons, the Interior Ministry, and various security agencies. This position can give a person periods of interruptions in work and career, when he will watch others advance while he stands still.

8. Social influence and intrigue

Ketu in the tenth house often endows a person with a penchant for intrigue and secrets, giving them the ability to achieve success through covert methods. These people can attain high social standing through covert and unconventional means. Rahu in the fourth house and Ketu in the tenth can create the image of a “gray cardinal” – a leader who manages the situation from the shadows without attracting attention.

This combination also indicates that the person may be involved in political games and implicit strategies to achieve their goals. Such people prefer to stay in the shadows, avoiding public attention, but at the same time exerting significant influence on those around them.”
