In Vedic astrology, Ketu is the South Node of the Moon, a shadow planet (chhaya graha)
representing past-life karma, spirituality, and detachment. It is known as the planet of spirituality,
detachment, intuition, and liberation. Ketu encourages us to look beyond material success and
focus on inner growth. A positive Ketu brings sudden transformation and spiritual awakening.
However, an afflicted Ketu may create confusion, isolation, unexpected events, or obstacles in
life.
