Rahu Mahadasha - Experience and how remedies are helping me

[jolli]

Thanks exploring. I am re producing the account which i gave earlier too, however it will give me a chance to review and make it more detailed. Hope it helps.
I am using topocentric setting for the dates.
Rahu Mahadasha Starting From 14 Jan 1995,
Sub Period :- (Antardasha)

Rahu AD From Jan 995 to Sept 1997

Before Rahu, till 1995 was doing OK in academics without break or getting fail. Was to graduate in 1996 in B Sc (Hon) Statistics. But instead could not clear last few papers and finally finished them in 1999. So just after entering the Rahu peiord, education gone for toss. Cant make Rahu responsible for this directly as due to domestic situation, my attention was more on starting earning ASAP.
In this period started and failed in many small tidbit businesses e.g Printing Press, Automobile Repair.
Took a loan to start the works, which went down and could not repay loan on schedule. finally repaid in 2003.

Finally joined a Job in 1999, as family situation was so worse that without this job we would not be able to arrange food. My brother also left studies and joined in job.

Guru AD Sept 1997 to Feb 2000

Not much re call. This is true for actually my whole life. Even though people used to comment on my sharp memory but i feel it is very selective. I am some times hard pressed to recall even major events of my life. Especially the time period. Dates etc. But i was working throughout in that factory. Though underpaid. Somehow finished graduation.

Sani AD Feb 2000 to Dec 2002

Same Job. Father expired after long illness, colon cancer (24 July 2000). Will this date help in ascertaining the time of birth?
With help of a friend, got a job in another company in Dec 2000. Though money was same but job condition was hugely better and this job later helped me in making career and rise.
Continued in same till 2005! Slowly got increments.
Started drinking weekly once, before this average was once or twice a year! Non veg also some times.

[jolli]

Budh Dec 2002 to July 2005

After a very brief affair (5 months!) got married. As this was a inter-culture same caste, didn’t went down well with extended family and had to separate. Got married in April 2003, with support from colleagues and friends. The aftermath was high tension days continuing even till now. Hot n Cold relationship with in-laws. Wify also not getting long with my mom etc. Son born in Feb 2004.

Marriage :- This decision of marriage (to whom, when, how) came as shock not only to family and friends but in retrospect to me as well! I hope you get what is meant here. No one who knew me expected that I will have a love marriage but leaving home etc including me. It was kind of ditching my mom and bros, sis when they were father less and I was eldest one with maximum responsibilities. But at that time these thoughts never come to my mind. It was a kind of adventure for me from which I was getting a strange kick.

Job Change in July 2004 and Jan 2005.

Ketu AD July 2005 to Aug 2006

Pressure continued to increase in Job and I continued to perform well and collect rewards. Took another loan and bought house in July/ Aug 2006. Shifted in immediately. On family front things continued badly. Every few days fights etc.

Shukra 2009-08-02

This was best period professionally(2007 to 2009). Good Job and good life. Friends , family life little better. Got my favourite car. Went on many vacations. Spent on food n cloths etc. Drinking frequency increased to atleast twice a week! Non veg also at least once a week.

Surya 2010-06-27

After June 2009, professionally things started going down hill. Was scared and first time in life contacted pandit jee for puja etc. Actually while retruning from a vacation our car hit head on by a truck. Car took several turns in air before landing up side down in a 10 feet deep ditch. Very surprisingly we (me, wife and kid) did not got any injuries! Only kid got one scratch on arm due to broken glass pieces. It took 10-14 people to pull us out and all were in dis belief to see us fine! Car was a total wreck.

So soon got series of puja n havans etc. Pandit jee made me wear Pukhraj as well as moonga. Janeou. Become a very religious reciting hanuman chalisa and shani chalisa daily. But by Dec 2009, after few months this all stopped. Started drinking and eating non veg again. Frequency was 2 or 3 times a month.

Took a new project and it changed the team with which I was working. Overnite all changed. Sept 2009.
Almost soon after that by Dec 2009, had an affair!

[jolli]

Chandra 2011-12-27

Barely able to work. Family life in dump. Office as well same. Although continued to got RnR in office but satisfaction was extremely low. Affair was a factor I wanted to get away. No promotion etc in last 3 years! Was another factor. Left job as soon as got a offer in Dec 2011.

After much mental strangulation I made known the affair in family. It had expected impact of further making my life hell. I was just a walking ghost. I wanted to get away from all this. I neither wanted to marry again, nor wanted existing life to continue. I wanted a fresh start. Both wanted me to leave each other and stay with her. I wanted to get away from both! I told them and both attempted to end their life.

I am so scared that because of me, some one is even thinking of ending their life, that it made me mentally un stable. I am drinking on daily basis and praying to god that nothing un toward should happen.

One of my friend predicted I may go to jail, and this made me even more paranoid. Actually he also predicted that I may marry twice, although he did not knew of my affair. Hence this started my interest in astrology.

Mangal 2013-01-13

Phew ! Chandra period was harrowing. Left job in Dec 2011 as both of them started calling office and collegues and make sure that I was not seeing other secretly. I could not manage and was scared of loosing job amid loss of face. Hence before this could happen I left job, hoping that in 2 or 3 months will get another. Wrong and stupid decision. Still job less.

Continued my interest in astrology. Now am free hence literally eating everything on astrology available on internet. But to be honest, cant make head n tail of planets and dashas.
However read everything which was available just for the heck of it. Still clueless and in fact more I read, more I suspect about my self that my life will take turn for better.
Although pinning lots of hope on Jupitor dasha, but little knowledge is dangerous thing. I learnt that all my good planets are in transition zone hence not capable to providing me any relief to great extend.

Above is till date account of Rahu dasha. Hope it helps. Happy to provide answers to any querries or questions. Though on n off I have been reciting hanuman chalisa since child hood and currently wearing pukhraj also.

Hello together,

Below is my Rahu-Dasha experience posting here again as i had posted in a separate thread. I am posting here the main events without regards to the exact start and end of ADs.

Birth details :
DoB: 24-March-1977
ToB: 8.55 AM
PoB: Bangalore.

My Rahu dasha is the worst period in my life (till now). It started as soon as i completed my engineering (in aug 1999). I struggled hard to get a job for 1 year (till aug 2000). Then I got a contract job for a period of 1 year (till aug 2001) in a government research lab. From Aug 2001 to March 2004 i was jobless. I turned spiritual and even i got a very good guru also during this time. Even today i am much more interested in spiritual growth than in career. I got a contract job from March 2004 to Feb 2005. Then i got a very good job in MNC and i worked for almost 6.2 years till March 2011. During the stay in this org i went abroad during Nov 2005 to March 2006. Then started bad periods because of bosses and colleagues. I was not even promoted once during my stay there. Out of frustration i quit my job (on 31st March 2011) and joined another MNC on 18thApril 2011. Again problems started due to boss and i was forced to resign on 05-Jan-2012. So till now i am jobless and some small small health problems like migraine and digestion problems. Overall it was tragic days for me in Rahu dasha and i dont know what is in store still in this notorious dasha.

Please let me know when i will get a job. Also i observe there is parivarthana yoga between 12th and 2nd lord (between venus and jupiter) and this is very bad it seems. Any remedies for this?

Best Regards

Dear Learned members,

As i am jobless, if i pursue further education like MBA now, will it be OK? Will it be successful?

Best Regards

[Saindhavi]

For those who cannot recite Sanskrit Mantras, do Chandi Homam and are running Rahu Mahadasha -

• You can recite any hymn for Durga daily according to your inclination and capacity.
  
  Fast once a month on Shukla Paksha Ashtami and worship Goddess Durga on that day, either by visiting a temple or at home. Mahishasuramardini image of Durga is best for this.
  
  Do Chandi Homam every 2 Navaratris i.e., before Rama Navami and during Durga Puja by a priest.
  
  You can calculate the Shukla Paksha Ashtami dates from here -

Explorings will respond to the queries above.

[Kunal]

Gaurav,

See also Saturn transit related to your career.

Explorings,

When I was writing that post, I remembered what you had said about being surrounded by Rahu Mahadasha people.

Remember what I had said -

our Mahadasha sends to us people influenced by that particular graha more, as our body acts like a kind of magnet. You are right, people under Rahu Mahadasha draw the same energy from Rahu, so they tend to get together more.


I recently realized this fact and now that I read it here,I find it credible ...kinda adds another scientific dimension to Astrology to think of.


Seen from this angle, in the cases I cited, it makes sense why a person with benefic Rahu in Lagna acts like Rahu to those having malefic Rahu-Ketu axis and running Rahu Mahadasha, a woman having malefic Rahu in Lagna acts partially as Rahu and partially as a Rahu-afflicted person and it also explains how all these people got entangled in Rahu's web together.

Could you please explain/elaborate it a bit more? I found this to happen during my Rahu MD (have stated my accounts on this thread when I was going through it) ...haven't been able to figure this one out though but when I think of it ,it makes sense and would want to understand it further.


So, beware of women having Rahu in Lagna.

[Saindhavi]

Kunal,

A person having a malefic Rahu in Lagna will sometimes behave like Rahu because his/her Lagna has been tainted by Rahu's energy and sometimes like a Rahu-afflicted person during Rahu Mahadasha, because Rahu is malefic for Lagna and will not lead to its growth despite the strategies person uses in his/her life.

This doesn't apply to women alone, but also to men having malefic Rahu in Lagna. I wrote that sentence above in context of Exploring's chart vis-a-vis her husband's chart. It's not to be taken in a general sense.

Read the "film script" on the previous page. This comment relates to those cases. If you follow the thread from there, you'll understand.

[Kunal]

I was wondering what "behaving like Rahu" can be...perhaps deceptive,scheming,involving oneself in politics..?

Anyway,I'll read the thread again ..I actually tried but couldn't quite get the film script lol

Naga:

I have already analyzed this chart... see response here: http://lightonvedicastrology.com/phpBB3 ... 01#p122701

Things should improve post Sept.

Sa is currently exalted, Ju is aspecting 6H, 8H, and 10H. Financial gains is away from place of birth and so is meeting your spouse. 2013 will be better and will also bring marriage.

You need to propiate Ra and Venus.

Daily recital of:
- MMM (21 times)
- Kunjika Stotra (twice)
- Mahalakshmi Ashtakam or Mahalakshmi Ashtotaram stotram followed by Sri Stuti or Sri Suktam.
- Sa is aspecting Moon, Saptam Shani, daily recital of Hanuman Chalisa is advised.

Hi Explorings

Do you have any comments on my Rahu dasha account.
i have amny questions on usual topics of relationship, money, career, house, etc.

Rahu Mars is particularly bad. I have not earned even a single rupee in last 8 months, even when i was willing to work on anthing. how it is possible. whenever i try to do anything it really doesnt work! people do not responsd or just ignore my calls, mails etc.

i dont know. looks like something is stopping me from working guess. In particular i want to know, after a gap of almost a year now, i m not hopeful of getting job. should i self employ myself in view of long term?? I cant do any business as neither i have money nor any experience of any line as such.

appreciate a detailed response. i am pretty sure my birth time is correct.

23 july 1975 at new delhi morning 7 35

[karthik1984]

ranomallar, 7th lord in 12th house is not good for marriage.

[neelkumar]

Dear Respected Saindhavi ji,
I kindly request your concern about my chart.. I am passing right now through an upheaval..as you already know I am jobless since July 2011. My parents are visiting me and are with me till the 20th of this month - 20th September. My relationship with my father (best said is) is cold..but I have always respected him and have been affected by his comments. I don't blame them (my parents-my mother has always accepted the situation)- I am their only child and I have always surpassed his expectations with regards to my career during my Rahu Mahadasha.. To cut everything short (and if you remember my chart details) when will I get a a job? Also, should I start a employment agency as a business in this period of economic downturn in India? I personally feel that things are to go more worse than how it's right now in my life. What do you think? I guess you have my birth details. Simply asking you - when things will start looking better for me (career-wise)? Please..and please kindly don't ask me again to chant the hymns. Really, any good period in my life ever? Or is it going to continue in this downward way? Jupiter Mahadasha is horrible for me. I feel guilty to hurt my parents. Please advice.
P.S. Some astrologer has long ago once told me that my Rahu Mahadasha would be the best period of my life- I am beginning to agree with him- in-spite of all the roller-coaster, I did have a steady and prestigious academic life. But career-wise- it's been unstable. So am i to do well with an individual environment rather than a group environment?? I am beginning to hate my Jupiter Mahadasha, really!

[Saindhavi]

Neelkumar,

Jupiter-Saturn should be better for your job chances and your Saturn Mahadasha should be the best period.

Last time I told you Saturn has been in your 8th house and that has created problem. Now, Mars afflicts Saturn in your 9th house of Bhagya till 30th Sept and this period is generally problematic for most people except a few.

From 1st Oct onwards, when Mars leaves Saturn, your period should be better.

But see the Mars-Saturn transit in Virgo-Libra thread in the Transit section, where we have calculated the problematic periods of exalted Saturn. These periods may again created problems, but less than 8th Saturn and Mars-Saturn conjunction as now.

Rahu Mahadasha often gives wealth and materialistic pleasures, but that wealth doesn't last long.

Moreover, if you analyse your situation, you will realise that you may have made some strategic errors related to career in terms of training, studying a course which doesn't have a sustained market value, dealing with colleagues or in some other way.

Thus, eventhough you got money during Rahu Mahadasha, your wealth given by Rahu is depleted and now you are facing problems because of the strategic errors you might have made during Rahu Mahadasha. This is what I mean when I say that your Rahu is malefic for career. It may have given you money, but it has misled you in the wrong direction in some way. Jupiter has brought this problem to the surface.

I don't think business is a good idea for you, because Venus is in 6th and aspecting 12th - unless a close friend or family member is running the business and you are doing the marketing management.

Marketing Management is a good option for you and if possible, try to go abroad either for job or for further study.

If you don't want to chant hymns, do only one fast in a month - on the Shukla Paksha Ashtami. Don't take any solid food during Sunrise to Sunset and after Sunset, take fruits, salads, sweets and food cooked with vegetables if you want, but without salt and spices. Pray to Goddess Durga in the daytime on the fast day. Also do regular charity from time to time.

[Saindhavi]

Ranomallar,

You are running Surya Mahadasha and your Sun is with Rahu.

Marriage will happen in any short period of Saturn.

Fast once a month on Shukla Paksha Ashtami and pray to Goddess Durga. Besides, recite Gayatri Mantra and offer water to he rising Sun.

Post your chart in another section for more detailed reading.

[neelkumar]

Thanks so much Saindhavi ji for your quick response - this is what I find attractive - in every sphere of my life.

Neelkumar,
Jupiter-Saturn should be better for your job chances

When is my this Jup-Sat period starting - exact date..please??

You'd be surprised to know that I do lot of charity - like sponsoring a girl child for education with ISKON or 'a meal a day' for a child' or contributing for old age homes. I am a Hindu but I don't like to do charity for religious organizations - it's a matter of my ego and kinda my personal thinking.
Sandhavi ji, my family doesn't have a good experience with business,, my chachaji (my father's youngest brother) expired due to low bp in an automobile spare-parts business- so it's a deterrent in a way.
I am not a fanatic religious guy, but I can diet - have earlier dieted due to my overweight, so I have fasted successfully, so I can fast. So, kindly request you to tell me the exact dates when to fast and I will do that.

Neelkumar,
But see the Mars-Saturn transit in Virgo-Libra thread in the Transit section, where we have calculated the problematic periods of exalted Saturn. These periods may again created problems, but less than 8th Saturn and Mars-Saturn conjunction as now.

Kindly let me know, in layman's terms, when I may look for better period - career-wise? By the way Saturn MD is million of years away, so..

[Saindhavi]

Ranomallhar,

I have given you the reading and remedies. See the Mahadasha table in your chart - Saturn periods will be good for marriage.

Neelkumar,

First, every time you post a follow-up question, post your birth details.

Second, download J-Hora free from Internet and check the Jupiter-Saturn period in your chart - http://www.vedicastrologer.org/jh/

Set the preferences in planetary calculations to "Topocentric" and "true positions" for Rahu-Ketu.

Third, see my post above where I have said that instead of hymns one can fast on Shukla Paksha Ashtami. I have given a link there of a Hindu calendar site where you can see the Ashtami dates. You can also ask any temple priest you know.

Contd...

[Saindhavi]

...Contd from above -

Finally, I already told you your times are changing from 1st Oct but check the Transit section for Virgo-Libra thread and see the dates we have calculated there for the problematic periods of exalted Saturn after 1st Oct. Read from page 7 on that thread.

I also said you have to look for a job in marketing management and try to go abroad either for job or for study. This means that if you need another qualification, you will have to get admission in a foreign university.

This also means that you should begin devising plans about how to leave India. If you keep on waiting for good times in career by just appearing for interviews, rather than plan according to your chart reading, you are going to delay your career prospects further.

After that, don't blame Jupiter Mahadasha. Jupiter has given you the message that you have planned wrongly during Rahu, that's why you are stuck now, despite whatever money you made then.

If you are not getting jobs abroad, it may imply that it's time for you to get another qualification, or it may imply you are not handling interviews right, or that there are some red flags in your career profile you have to fill up.

A malefic Rahu often means that one doesn't recognise opportunities when they come and one can't devise strategies properly. And this is precisely the problem in your case.

If it requires getting a qualification, stop thinking that you are already qualified and market should recognise your qualifications. Accept the reality that market is not recognising your qualifications and see what you need to do to get out of this rut. Do you need to register for a course abroad? Do you need to engage a reliable job agency to look for a job abroad? Do you have contacts abroad who can help you in some way? Only you know the ground reality.

I can only tell you that if appearing for job interviews has not given you a job for 2 years or so and if Indian market is only sliding down further, then it obviously means that this is a wrong strategy you have been following for last 2 years and you need to follow a different strategy now. I can only tell you that you should try to go abroad for marketing management and in fact I had told you to try for abroad right in the beginning when you had begun asking me to read your chart.

Good times won't come on their own, you have to plan and strategise for them. It's not as if you'll just land a job after 1st Oct. Market realities won't change in 15 days. Rather, you need to start thinking in terms of how you can leave India by whatever means and start working in that direction.

My own situation is not very different from yours. I too am highly qualified and Rahu Mahadasha gave me a lot of money too - and on a regular basis. My problems in Rahu Mahadasha were of personal, emotional and intellectual nature, not of financial nature, except during Rahu-Mercury. In fact, Jupiter Mahadasha has sometimes taken me to great heights and sometimes brought me down to low depths - financially speaking. And I have a powerful Jupiter.

But I don't blame Jupiter for this. When I analyse my past, I realise that despite all the materialistic comforts Rahu gave me, it also made me take wrong decisions regarding career, whose effects are showing in Jupiter Mahadasha now. If only I had not planned my life in certain ways during Rahu Mahadasha, my Jupiter would have taken me to much greater heights.

I thank Jupiter for bringing this out on surface and giving me this perspective, despite all the uneven patches in my career that I am going through in Jupiter Mahadasha.

I have recognised the errors I made during Rahu Mahadasha and am devising plans to rectify them, without thinking how highly qualified I am and what all I have achieved in the past. Hopefully, my new strategies will work out during Saturn's Libra transit.

I think it's somewhat a similar situation with you. It has been clearly proved that just appearing for job interviews is a wrong strategy for you. Your job is tied to the market and Indian market is sliding. On the other hand, US has begun to pick up now.

So, rather than blaming Jupiter, you need to see where the snags lie in your career profile and begin devising new strategies so that you can leave India as soon as possible.

Without this, I don't see a change coming in your life. No point in waiting for good times to come.

[neelkumar]

Thanks Saindhaviji..I will work on your advice and pointers.

One question: I don't want to be superstitious but I was wondering if someone has/have cast evil eye on me? Is it possible because there have been people in my life who have always been jealous of me because of various reasons (academics/people liking me and hence giving me attention/personality, etc) since my school days and now with the social sites like Facebook, twitter, they are back in touch with me through common friends (personally, I have blocked them)..but their mindset have remained the same. So just wondering..(since all these problems started since I joined these sites and got back in touch after years)

It's not that I haven't got job interviews at all but strangely (since these never happened earlier) things didn't materialize at the last stage-and all that due to very strange reasons like they couldn't afford me/ the person felt insecure or my 5 jobs in a 10 year career -that made them feel I change jobs often or simply the common -that's no replies inspite of the fact they (the most senior people) themselves said it was a wonderful interview.

I wonder what's the use of Jupiter bringing flaws on surface if it doesn't aswell come up with a solution the other hand.
Some astrologer here on this site has once told me that Jup MD strips off all your resources before giving it's own good results.
Also, the other day, I was reading this article about dasha sandhi calculations-thought of sharing it: http://www.barbarapijan.com/bpa/Vimshot ... sandhi.htm
Thanks again Saindhaviji,
Neel
My birth details : 29th August 1974, 19:10 hours, Ambarnath (Maharashtra)

[Humannature]

People with malefic Rahu, do they ever take up a good opportunity when they see one?
Looking back I see I have so many times passed up on good opportunities for no reason and time and again have made many wrong decisions specially in terms of education, career.
Whatever my parents asked me to study or do, I did exactly the opposite.
I look for new job opportunities but chicken out looking at the location, coz I am scared of relocation n handling everything alone. I don't even give a chance to people or new opportunities. I just say 'No' flat out.

Be it apartment search or jobs or whatever it be, without looking back, i just reject if it does not seem appealing to me at a first glance and if something seems good to me I follow with all my heart even if it not profitable or beneficial to me.

[Saindhavi]

Humannature,

It's the overall strength of your chart that makes the difference. In your case, it's one benefic Sun fighting against all odds caused by a malefic Rahu, Saturn Mahadasha, combust Lagna Lord Mars, a lot of planets in 8th house aspected by Saturn and Jupiter afflicted by Saturn.

Only Sun protects your career. But still, you have a stable job in the US and you have retained your job even during market recession when so many people have lost their jobs. Making wrong decisions has given you a lesser rise, but not pulled you down in dumps.

Malefic Rahu has not shown its full power on you because of a protective Sun and because you finished Rahu Mahadasha in early childhood. But yes, it may keep on turning your mind in wrong direction so that you may make strategic errors in career.

Be careful of Saturn-Rahu.

In my case, I have made certain serious strategic blunders in Rahu Mahadasha in career. But my Venus and Jupiter bring me fresh opportunities again. Sometimes, I recognise them because of a benefic Jupiter and Venus, sometimes I don't recognise them because of a malefic Rahu. So, it's the overall chart that counts.

Neelkumar,

What you write in 1st paragraph are typical traits of a malefic Rahu, including fear of evil eye and even actual practice of evil eye by rivals. So, observe fast on Shukla Paksha Ashtami for Goddess Durga and see.

I have said before I don't believe in Dasha Sandhi.

Jupiter won't make a phone call to you or write status on your Facebook page to tell you any solutions.

It will only give you ideas through human agency, through intuition and through an ability to assess a situation clearly and devise future plans in line with reality. It is for you to understand these messages - see especially the messages and ideas that come to you on Thursdays, though they can come on any day.

I am telling you that you need to change your strategies and you need to get the message.

As for job interviews not materialising in the last stage, read the Libra-Virgo transit thread. Many people have come there to say exactly the same thing. I myself had an interview recently, where the organisation head actually wanted to give me a higher salary than I asked for, but number 2 below him didn't want me, so I didn't get it even after getting it. Many people have said they are being offered lower salary than expected, so they are not joining. I have also experienced all these situations.

These are signs of a market falling apart.

Astrologically, those who understand the situation realistically and make strategies to stay ahead are succeeding. Jegdis5 on this forum is one good example of this, who has actually risen in recession because he has understood the market situations clearly because of a good Saturn in Saturn Mahadasha. Those who can't understand the reality and can't strategise properly, are badly stuck. This is where malefic or benefic Rahu and Saturn count.

[Humannature]

Saindhavi ji,

I see you finally got my name , Human nature. I never corrected you before when u used to address me as Hanuman nature, coz it was kind of good

Not just big things, even for small day to day things, I have to fight...
For example today, there were two queues for ticket purchase at the train station and i stood in one of the two queue and then i switched to the other line..and that queue moved slowly and the train left before i boarded and I missed an important meeting ... and the guy who took my place in the first queue was able to buy the ticket on time and board the train!!!
Tired of this day to day bad luck in big and small things.
Someone must be keeping a real close eye on me to make sure I make the worst possible decision in every scenario LOL.

Be it apartment search or jobs or whatever it be, without looking back, i just reject if it does not seem appealing to me at a first glance and if something seems good to me I follow with all my heart even if it not profitable or beneficial to me.

Even for small day to day things...for example today, there were two queues for ticket purchase at the train station and i stood in one of the two queue and then i switched to the other line..and that queue moved slowly and the train left before i boarded and I missed an important meeting ... and the guy who took my place in the first queue was able to buy the ticket on time and board the train!!!
Tired of this day to day bad luck in big and small things.

I do not wish to digress from the topic of this thread...

However, IMO whtever things you have mentioned has nothing to do with Rahu... you missing a train, etc. is pretty common. Mars and Sun in 7H will always bring egoistic people in your life with the effects of Ra in 9H and 9L in 8H, are the reasons for you been a renegade.

In J.hora you can check the power of your Rahu during Sa dasha, if the effect of Ra is diminished then Rahu effect is pretty much minimal. Furthermore, your Ra is in NK of Sa, hence it will be well-controlled during its dasha/AD.

You are undergoing Sa MD, Sa is not a friend of your LL... propiating Ju and Sun will help you.

Lets keep this thread limited to its topic!

Yes, I used to wonder why you called yourself Hanumannature, then noticed one day some one addressed you as Human Nature (both words separately). It was then I realised I had got your name wrong.

Apart from other remedies I suggested earlier, you can also fast on Shukla Paksha Ashtami and recite any Durga hymn on the day of fast. See my post above for Hindu calendar dates. Even if you can't recite hymns always, do this fast only once a month and see.
