I was doing some reading and came across this rule on multiple different sources for when Rahu/Ketu can become yogakarakas in a natal chart. Rahu/Ketu are always tricky and Yogakarakas are as well. I was doing some practice and realized this occurred in the chart of someone in my family. I don’t know how to properly apply that knowledge beyond that rahu may act in a benefic way in some cases though its transit in the past did cause issues.
However under certain circumstances they turn out to be Raja Yoga Karakas which turn them into factors that can do good in the chart. This occurs when:
Rahu or Ketu is in a kendrahouse (the 4,7 or 10th house ) and conjoined or aspected by the lord of a trikonahouse (5 or 9 th house) or when
Rahu or Ketu is in a trikonahouse (5 or 9th house) and conjoined or aspected by the lord of a kendrahouse (4,7 or 10th house).
It is possible that case 1 occurs twice in a chart (simply because when Rahu is in a kendra house Ketu will be in a kendrahouse too), with case 2 that is not possible.
If anyone (Veos or fellow students) know more about rahu/ketu yogakarakas I would be interested on your experiences of how it may cause rahu/ketu to act.
Thank you!
