Ketu (the astrological south node) brings profound lessons from a past that was lived and experienced, freeing the spirit from perspectives that disguise the divine in garbs of fear, that cower behind validation and comfort, and instead challenging the seeker to step in to an unfamiliar but true space of freedom, when it is time.
There is a brilliance that speaks through Ketu, not in the flashy and comfortable ways we might be instantly attracted to, but through the weight of a wisdom that emerges from more solitude than chatter, and from the search for more lasting meaning.
Ketu time periods, ‘Dashas’, ‘Antardashas’ and planetary transits touch everyone’s Jyotish sphere at some time or another. Whether through the awakening of a powerful memory that stirs the Self; the recognition of an inner imprint that seeks to be seen through time; the mightiness of a yearning so intense that it can reset the course of life; or the freedom, rest and ease that come from the closure and completion of one’s engagement with what has truly served its purpose for a time.
Each person holds the silent voice of Ketu within, one that works behind the names, forms and structures that we are conditioned to respond to, through ways and means that might even transcend the obvious.
Ketu’s call to remember, to re-imagine and to rise above are magnetic and compelling. And yet, they challenge the seeker to peer in to the shadow where many might fear to tread. Maa Kaali and Sri Ganesha guide the seeker’s journey through the mysterious and sublime realms of Ketu.
