tapaswi. He wants to that every one should obey the
path of righteousness. If some one do not follow his
lessons, he does not hesitate to punish. He is a strict
teacher.

On the other hand, Rahu is materialistic planet. In Vedic text it is known as Shadow planet or
chaya graha. It has a special ability to expand the effect of the house or planet sitting with it.He
do not like to follow any traditional path. He likes to cross the boundaries. He do not have any
moral values. He is always hungry and never becomes satisfied.

It started with a phrase “shaniwat Rahu kujawat Ketu ” It


means Rahu is similar to saturn and Ketu is similar to
Mars. But it has not been discussed or explained in
details in the vedic texts. In my small understanding
Rahu is a high energy planet. It works as catalyst. It
follows the theory of working relentlessly. But it is a
mental work. Both saturn and Rahu believes in work.
But saturn wants to change the world with physical labor
where as Rahu wants to do it with mental labor.

There is another aspect to see it. Rahu is Maya or illusion. Maya or illusion is the main force
behind karma. We work for getting something. Maya compels a man to do lot of karma. Saturn
is the planet of Karma. He loves rahu because of which people work. Its rahu who drags a man
to saturn.
