💠 Rahu in Aquarius
Rahu in Aquarius brings innovation, desire for social reform, obsession with futuristic technology, AI, networking, rebellion, and collective evolution. Aquarius is Saturn-ruled but also carries the energy of Rahu itself—making this placement intense, electric, and revolution-oriented.
🔥 Ketu in Leo
Ketu in Leo dissolves the ego, fame, and authority. It forces one to reflect inward, detach from pride, and rediscover authenticity. It can also bring issues with leadership roles, father figures, or children
