Moon Conjunct Ketu

Ketu is a node, opposite Rahu, and it is treated as eclipsing when it sits with a luminary. The Moon is the mind, the mother, and the public mood. Together they can make feeling sudden, spiritual, or hard to explain, and they can make the person seem absent. The dispositor, the sign lord, carries Ketu's result. Moon-Ketu in Taurus is hosted by Venus, in the Moon's exaltation sign, a strong Moon with a detaching guest. Moon-Ketu in Scorpio is a debilitated Moon with Ketu, a harder mind, because Scorpio is the Moon's fall. The sign splits the effects the word bad tries to unify.

In the 4th, home and mother take the Ketu color. In the 10th, the career goes inward or becomes hard to advertise. In the 1st, the personality itself looks detached. In the 7th, partnership includes a separating note, and marriage is still judged with the 7th lord, Venus, and D9, not by this pair alone. Rahu will be in the opposite house, enlarging whatever that house is. The axis is part of the reading. Bad effects are the detachment and the eclipse flavor. They are not a disease name. The 6th house would be the strain house if that is the question, and this conjunction is not automatically in the 6th.

Ketu mahadasha lasts 7 years. The Moon's lasts 10. The conjunction is loudest then, and in the antardasha of one inside the other. After Ketu in the Vimshottari order comes Venus, 20 years, which often feels like a return of color after a narrow Ketu chapter. A Saturday remedy does nothing for this pair unless Saturn disposits them. Monday is the Moon's day. Use it if you are supporting the Moon, and do not expect Monday to move Ketu to another sign.
