Ketu in Different Houses

Meaning of Ketu in all twelfth houses

Ketu is the Ninth and last planet that I am going to discuss with you today. In this article, I’ll explain everything about Ketu. I’ll tell you the meaning of Ketu in different houses.

Ketu in Lagna / Ascendant / First House

First House is called self-house, it is related to ourselves, our personality, our general health condition.
Ketu behaves like Rahu Mostly. It is also an illusionary planet. Ketu is the main significator of isolation, higher dimensions in spirituality, mystical world, and separation. Ketu’s nature is very curious like mercury, but mercury loves to communicate and learn new things and Ketu learns from its own enlightenment. Ketu is a representer of son, intuition, ability to research and development, seriousness, and dog in pets.

Note: – There are many things common between Rahu and Ketu. But one big difference is that Rahu just creates an illusion but Ketu’s nature is spiritual so it can remove the illusion and enlighten itself.
Let’s explain how Ketu behaves in the first house. Ketu is also called a north node of the moon and Ketu is called a south node of the moon. These are not physical planets; these both are the shadow or imaginary planets. They always stay in opposite directions with each other.

Ketu in Lagna / first house is all about isolation and incompleteness. Ketu is the planet of isolation and when it comes to the first house which is related to self, it shows that person is isolated by himself/herself. This position makes a person incomplete, so in the first house, it expects to get some impact from 7th house to feel complete and can give the person way of life. This position makes a person confused and unsure about himself. Planets in the seventh house can change the Ketu’s effects.

The conjunction with the moon in the first house can increase the person’s psychic abilities. And he/she can become a very good psychic medium. It is also a very good position for spiritual healers.
Aspects of the 5th and 9th house indicate that the person will be successful in sports like puzzle games, chess, and other games which need intelligence. This person can also travel abroad for higher education and for religious purposes.

Ketu in Second house

The second house is related to finance, money, social values, family, speech, and throat.
The second house is all about family and wealth and Ketu is isolation and separation. So, when Ketu comes into the 2nd house it indicates isolation and separation from family. It could be mentally or physically. This position indicates that if a person lives with family, he/she may suffer because of fights which can make you isolate mentally. Like a person live at home physically but he/she doesn’t talk to anyone.

Ketu in 2nd house makes a person wealthy and extremely rich. But they don’t care much about money. This is also the indicator of 2nd marriage. So, it is better for couples to remarry after first marriage to remove these effects.
Aspects of the 6th and 10th houses indicate that the person should research and choose the right career to get success in life. Because both houses are related to career and Ketu is related to research and curiosity.

Ketu in different houses — third house

The third house is related to Short distance travel, skills and hobbies, inner courage, things related to business, information and communication skills, marketing skills, and younger siblings.
Ketu in the third house indicates isolation or separation from younger siblings. Isolation could be physical or mental. It is seen in many cases that the siblings have a different mindset so they don’t communicate a lot with each other. Because Ketu is a spiritual planet and these peoples love to talk about spirituality and mystical things. But their siblings will not much be interested in these topics which can cause isolation.

The third house is also related to short journeys, self-efforts, and business so Ketu can isolate a person from all these things. These peoples will not like to travel, especially short travels. And it is also difficult for them to set business for them.
Aspects of the 7th house indicate the isolation from spouse for a career. This position indicates that a person can work far away from home and live separately from a spouse.
The next aspect of the 11th house also shows that the person will isolate or separate himself from family, friends, and spouse to gain wealth.

Ketu in the fourth house

The fourth house is related to home, mother, vehicles, property, peace of mind, homeland, and school friends.
This position of Ketu isolates a person from mother and property. These peoples will mostly stay far from home and mother. In childhood, they live in hostels or with grandparents, and at a young age, they went to foreign lands to work. If they stay at home it could be harmful to their mother’s health.

Peoples with Ketu in the fourth house may have property on their name but an unfortunate sign is that they can’t live there. Like a person is working abroad and send a salary to his/her spouse or parents in the homeland. But he can just visit for some days can’t live there permanently.
Aspects of the 8th house and 12th house make a person highly spiritual, who can connect to higher dimensions very easily.

Ketu in different houses — 5th house

The fifth house is related to intelligence, stack market, education, romance, kids, sports, creation and innovation, gambling, and happiness.
This position indicates that the person has no interest in sports or other creative activities. It doesn’t mean that they are not intelligent not active but the effects of Ketu isolate them from all these things related to the fifth house. It just like a kid in a school who always stays alone in the school, he has no friends, he doesn’t like to play games or participate in other activities. But he passes the exams with good marks.

Ketu in the 5th house also indicates separation from kids, just like a person works in another country and spends little time with his kids.
Aspects of the 9th and first houses indicate a person confused about himself. Like a person stuck between normal and mystical world.

Ketu in 6th house

The sixth house is also called Dushtana house and also the Upachaya house. This house is related to enemies, legal issues, obstacles, debts, routine life, disputes, colleagues, and diseases.
It is not a positive position for Ketu, because it makes a person highly confused. He has no idea what to do, even he can’t choose a career for him. They can easily trust anyone who can create a problem for them. Peoples can use and cheat them very easily. They are unsure and confused about career selection.

These people may have a rare type of illness or disease.
Aspects of the 10th and 2nd houses indicate that they will be lucky in career and wealth but they can’t save money from cheaters. As 2nd house is the house of wealth and 10th house is related to career so these both houses will give them money but they can lose it because of the negativity of the 6th house.

Ketu in different houses — 7th house

The seventh house is related to Spouse, marriage, partnerships, marital happiness, and market place.
Ketu in 7th house makes a person isolate from spouse and other partnerships. It shows that spouse nature will be different from a person which can cause isolation or separation. It is not the mean that they get a divorce but separation is there, it could be mentally or physically.

They have the ability to go as deep as possible in researches work.

Ketu in the 9th house makes a person isolate from father and religion. This house is related to religion and spirituality and Ketu is the planet of isolation. So here a person isolates himself from everything to follow the religion but when reaching on a higher level he realized that he needs something more than religion. Because the rules of religion are defined and everyone has to follow, no one can go against the rule.

Here they need something beyond the religion, where they can follow their own path. So, they start to follow spirituality. We can say the spirituality can separate or isolate these peoples from the religion, but it depends on other aspects.

It is because these peoples have totally different views about religion and spirituality and they can go against their teachers and gurus. They learn a lot and research a lot. They have such great knowledge about religion and spirituality so it is not easy to challenge these people’s views and beliefs.

So, it may lead to cheatings and fraud. Peoples can gain their trust and use them. Ketu is a blind planet. When we come to a career, these peoples can’t work under anyone. But they will be good in spirituality and other mystical things, so they can do their own work and they will be successful. It is not easy for them to find a job which suits them.
