Dear learned astrologers, students and elders,
I am writing to you regarding Ketu's influence on the life path. Those who experience Ketu mahadasha at an early age or in their prime are said to be paying off a Karmic debt, according to many in the forum. Could you please share your thoughts on the matter? Do the results from paying off the debt impact the present life?
Your experiences - positive and negative would also be appreciated.
Thank you in advance,
A 26 year old in the middle of her Ketu Dasha

It is true, Ketu mahadashs in prime of life can destabilize a person. Same with Rahu. If these two shadow entities, are on 2-8 axis of vedic chart, then person may experience family problems, mysterious illness, loss of wealth, and so on. 1-7 axis can also be bad but mostly with own relations (marriage or business partner) as opposed to distant relatives, and even non-immediate family for 2-8.
Ketu is indeed karmic debt they say. But in childhood, or in teenage years it need not be that bad. Mainly because child is still living at home and sharing the karmas, charts of parents .
Trick is to close the mind to negative thoughts, emotions, feelings entirely. Very difficult to do. Some will stray into drugs and other stuff. When things happen to you that you don't control whom to blame?? There is no REAL physical God... everything is human constructs. Only energy transfers take place in our universe, nothing else. If someone is waiting for god to come and help them out, won't happen. It is fiction. A black hole in our galaxy is the closest description to this super-universal force or godhead as Geeta calls it.
This is is my view, no offences to anyone. Everything is moving constantly in the universe, and whatever has been set in motion, it will happen, in good or bad fashion. Remedies, mantras, gemstone, spiritual, reiki healing etc. are to soothe the nerves, calm the mind, and defocus from our problems. Do not expect quick solutions from the universer, only the people you're connected with can help if at all. Otherwise time will heal all wounds. Planets, dashas, etc are nothing more than people and events in your life.

yes true. I lost my father when I was 9 and the whole family devastated. We did not have elderly male support nor educational guidance and spiritual guidance that my father would give. He was an IAS and Math All India first. So it was a very heavy loss.
Sure. I went thru my Ketu from 23-30. Ketu MD started immediately after sade sati.
I struggled to find a job for a long time, health deteriorated, felt alone, did my post graduation. Health was the biggest concern for me until I found a job. Very anxious, lucid dreams, scared and seeing things too were part of the 7 year deal

Thank you for your responses dear Dev and My Head. I'm really sorry to hear of your struggles and hope the future has more pleasant times. Did you also experience some positivity?
Personally, Mercury Dasha was not exactly rosy and my Rahu/Ketu return was earth shattering - as I had Rahu AD too. Ketu Dasha has been a breath of fresh air. I faced many painful but bearable shocks (Rahu AD made me quite tough)... But I'm also enjoying the spiritual gifts (like astrology) and freedom - despite being hopelessly broke and professionally overqualified. I moved out of my hometown in India, and spend a lot of time near nature. It's pretty typical I guess. More enriching life experiences and valuable lessons in the Ketu Dasha for sure!

Actually ketu dasa ketu bukti was good. I got admitted to CBSE school, my elder sister got married. Then it was very bad, family completely shattered as I said with the loss of my father. I became too isolated and felt extremely bad.
It was so almost throughout, but then in ketu - mercury I became very studious and started doing very well in studies and it was also my entry into university after school education. So these two periods were good but in between horrible. I dont even want to recall that even for a while. It is because I did not have enough wisdom though I was intelligent. I was so young and knew nothing except studies and music and participating in competions, all types, studies, music, dance, drama, games and so on. Here too I missed my father very much.
In fact he was teaching me every day till he was there and so I missed a lot, it was like a fish being put out of water.

My ketu dasha was a mixed bag. I got married in Ketu dasha, had a son and a miscarriage too. Got jobs and got back to acting. Got prizes and went abroad. It was shocking too as I faced 5 deaths in a row..and perhaps the most shocking was losing a cousin as young as 12 and then started looking for life's answers.
I am not sure whether my ketu is in 1 and 7 axis or 2 and 8 or 6 and 12 as my birth time is not correct

Sir, I need help as I am going thru Ketu MD. I visited a local astrologer last year and he said to pray Lord Ganesha. During the Ketu Dashamy wife left me twice(because of neural disorder) and I had to struggle to bring her back and it impacted my kids education and now they are little bit ok. I was in good job before Ketu MD and all of sudden even friends turned against me in my job and I ad switched several roles to keep the family running. Now I am not sure where I am heading in my job/career and focus is on to keep the kids in school somehow or other. I am in night shift for last 5 years and it impacted my health. I have no other option but to continue like this
Every Day I pray God so there is no trouble at my work no matter how much effort I put. I feel isolated and sometimes I pray God at 1:00 am or 2:00 am
My DOB is April 10 1973 . The local astrologer told me from April 2018 Venus MD starts and it will be good.
Please give me some directions sir

Hi, ketu has been bad due to its position. How was your time from last year ??
Last year I struggled to keep my job and was asked to leave in 15 days. Not only that I went sick due to migraine and could not even focus on job/family or any other even minor task. I asked for 2 months time and somehow got into another job and continued in my night shifts. .My kids were stable but some misunderstanding with my wife. These things happened between March and July. But my misunderstanding with my mother waded away as she was the one took care of my health during these 2 months.
I had been putting efforts in my job but from this March onwards I feel isolated in my work. I am feeling that I am no more liking this job but there is no misunderstanding with my boss yet.

Hi, thanks for the feedback.. The thing is venus is strong in its exaltation but its conjunct with sun on the same degree . So, Venus has been afflicted . Praying Lord Durga Ma on Tuesdays and Fridays as well offering water to surya devta daily will help in mitigating some of the negative factors of the Venus-Sun close conjunction. You can as well listen to aditya hrudayam stotram as it will make career prospects better. It is propitiation for Sun .
Take Care.

Long time lurker. Here are my experiences.
I think ketu started somewhere in 2013 for me. Things have been mixed so far.
We were blessed with a wonderful baby in 2015. I had some ups and smaller downs on the career front but mostly did ok (2 promos in the last few years) and currently having a good phase on career front (thanks to the almighty).
Now things have been extremely stressful as well. Very frequent fights with spouse, absolutely no understanding between us, desires to have some relationships outside of marriage (but had no luck), and absolutely no peace in personal life. Staying busy at work is the only peace I get.
Currently we are looking to buy a house but the transaction has some complications and it will keep me sleepless over the next couple of months.
I used to be quite spritual but all the hecticness has taken that away from me. I don't even get the time to shower and mostly running. But somewhere I do feel that God has given me the strength to slog through everything and be able to survive thus far.
Wonder how the remaining time is going to be for me? Any predictions?

Beginner in Vedic from Croatia.
I was born in Ketu MD. Of course that I do not remember my first years of life, but when I was 19 I have found out that in 1,5 years of my life were bad. My parents were divorcing and I refused to eat. So I was eating and throwing up. Doctors gave up and than my grandma took me and started to feed until eventually I started to keep food. That was also my first change of place of living, from Split to Zagreb (Ke-Ra-Me).
At age of 3 (Ke-Ju-Ma) I had throat operation. Than I had some strange health issues. In daycare, when I would stand up hastily, I would faint. Doctors thought that I had epilepsy. After all diagnostic, they concluded: Her brain is growing much faster than head bones, which in turn makes pressure on brain. Nowadays I believe that they had no idea what they were talking, since I still have low blood pressure.
At age of 5,5 years, my mother decided to take me again, in Split, and enrolled in school. Those 2 years were horror. She would be out most of the night, and I was awake and crying since I was alone. When she tried to learn with me, she would yell, and I would froze. Then she would slap me into my face, and sometimes I would hit the wall with my head. There was some other bad things, which I leave behind. That summer my grandma came from Zagreb on summer vacation, and when she left Split, my only doll (named Dream) was gone. Everyone tried to convince me that I lost her. Finally when I moved back in Zagreb in 2000, I found that doll thrown in attic.
After 2 years she decided that she needs to go study further so I went back to Zagreb. I believe it was almost a last week of Ketu MD (May 1971). In Zagreb I stayed until finished secondary schools. I was traveling to England (summer camp), than to Mexico (to visit mother) and than in 1985 got GC for USA and went every summer until 1991. Just before Venus MD finished.
I can tell you that most of those years I felt like a luggage, a bag which can be thrown on street any moment, if doesn't comply to wishes of my grandma. She did raised me, saved me, gave me good education, but every day I had to listen: "If it wasn't for me you would be on street since your mother didn't want to take care of you. You don't have a mother or father. You are w***e like your mother ... and on, and on ...
So, yes, starting with Ke MD it can be a horror. But, if it doesn't brake you, it makes you stronger. The scars I have are still huge, and for me it is easier to do as much as I can alone, then asking for help. Probably because I expect to hear: "If it wasn't for me you would ...

I m also going through ketu md my dob is 24/02/93 3:48 pm patna bihar dasha starts at 2015 when i went through eye operation completed my btech in 2015 and now pursuing mba but too many mental tensions presure of job health issue . I also become too much spiritual during and develop intrest towards astrology but got cheated by dearones.pls suggest remedies
I am running ketu dasa budha bhukti. Throughout ketu dasa i was sick. In ketu dasa i lost a son in miscarriage, all hard-earned money, lost honor, like shalu i got cheated, lost peace of mind, had untold marital issues, and my health played havoc. But the real sting is happening now before ketu leaves. All my nerves and muscles are twitching. If i do not move for sometime i feel i will stop moving forever. Neurology issue. Ketu is located in purva punya sthana in house 5. The only saving grace is it is conjoined with guru in the same house. But guru has lost its strength due to gochara / guru peyarchi, due to which i now have ashtamaguru for next 1 year. If i survive this ordeal i will come back and post here to tell i survived.
