Ketu is the South Node of the Moon — a shadow planet that behaves like Mars but acts on the spiritual plane. He is the karaka of moksha (liberation), past-life karma, spirituality, occult research and sudden, total detachment.
Like Rahu, Ketu has no rulership. He is considered exalted in Scorpio (some say Sagittarius) and debilitated in Taurus (some say Gemini) and is always exactly 180° from Rahu. Friends: Mars, Venus, Saturn. Enemies: Sun, Moon. Neutral: Mercury, Jupiter.
Ketu cuts and dissolves the indications of the house he sits in. The full matrix below shows what happens when Ketu is in 1st house for Aries ascendant (loss of self-identity, spiritual leaning), in the 12th for Pisces ascendant (high yogi placement) and every other combination.
