What happens when Moon Rahu Venus are placed in the 5th house?

Life is boring when there is NO LOVE!

This is the whole essence, this is the whole story of life – when you have RAHU, MOON and VENUS in the the 5th house!

One has to understand that 5th house is not just connected with ROMANCE but also affection, intelligence, adventure, excitement and ‘learning the ropes’!

One HOUSE has many dimensions.

One LIFE has many dimensions.

Life is never ONE DIMENSIONAL – it is always MULTI-DIMENSIONAL!

Based on your ‘state of consciousness’ – based on your ‘level of understanding’ – and based on your ‘Age’ – the dimensions of 5th house are unrevealed – unfolded and activated!

A young woman with this placement is bound to have many relationships – she just can’t imagine life without a ‘Lover’!

These kind of woman are lovers, day dreamers, for them – LOVE is oxygen, if there is no love, if there is no lover, if there is no relationship then they are bored – they feel that there is no ‘life’ to their being!

Venus and Moon and Rahu is in which Nakashtra? And where is the Lord of these Nakshatra placed? Such factors decide the ‘way ahead’ – meaning how this DESIRE of having ROMANCE, or ADVENTURES will fructify and when will they fructify and in what way they will fructify.

Indulgence is the word – whenever Moon and Venus come together – the person has indulgence towards having all kind of pleasures and when RAHU joins in – the indulgence is converted to – TOO MUCH indulgence!

TOO MUCH is what RAHU is all about! Venus and Moon in the 5th house is good placement – BUT – when you bring RAHU to this beautiful ‘couple’ – the peace and the beauty and the bliss ceases to exist – because now RAHU will want MORE and MORE and MORE – how can there be any peace or any bliss to the native? Not possible!

5th house is the most important house – at least to me. Because 5th house is ruled by LEO – SUN!

And I love SUN more than anybody else. SUN is the CONSCIOUSNESS!

The Holy Bible says “Joy comes in the MORNING.”

This MORNING (SUN RISE) is the CONSCIOUSNESS that brings JOY to your being!

And so whenever RAHU is placed in the 5th house – it cast its shadow on the very source of being – CONSCIOUSNESS!

That is why RAHU in 5th house is NOT a good placement!

The LAAL KITAB way of casting horoscope is itself a beautiful way because they simply start the chart with ARIES as ASCENDANT! But it is deep – because what it does is that this way of casting the chart helps you to understand the ‘original’ essence of each house – which than you can map with the actual Rashi Chart to derive more meaningful understandings than otherwise!

In a way – I love LAAL KITAB way of casting chart – it does helps in many ways to understand the core essence of the native in question!

Interestingly let us see where RAHU seems to be a UNFIT –

1st House – Aries (MARS) – UNFIT

2nd House – Taurus (VENUS) – FIT

3rd House – Gemini (Mercury) – FIT

4th House – Cancer (Moon) – UNFIT

5th House – Leo (Sun) – UNFIT

6th House – Virgo (Mercury) – FIT

7th House – Libra (Venus) – FIT (Conditional)

8th House – Scorpio (Mars) – UNFIT

9th House – Sagittarius (Jupiter) – UNFIT

10th House – Capricorn (Saturn) – UNFIT

11th House – Aquarius (Saturn, Uranus) – FIT

12th House – Pisces (Jupiter, Neptune) – UNFIT

You see – the HOUSE ruled by SIGN LORDS that are totally AGAINST RAHUISH energy – are the HOUSE in which RAHU is UNFIT – not a match and when he is not comfortable it is natural for him to create havoc and many tragedies related to the matters of that house!

Now let us where KETU seems to be a FIT:

1st House – Aries (MARS) – FIT

2nd House – Taurus (VENUS) – UNFIT

3rd House – Gemini (Mercury) – UNFIT

4th House – Cancer (Moon) – UNFIT

5th House – Leo (Sun) – UNFIT

6th House – Virgo (Mercury) – UNFIT

7th House – Libra (Venus) – UNFIT (Conditional)

8th House – Scorpio (Mars) – FIT

9th House – Sagittarius (Jupiter) – FIT

10th House – Capricorn (Saturn) – UNFIT

11th House – Aquarius (Saturn, Uranus) – UNFIT

12th House – Pisces (Jupiter, Neptune) – FIT

KETU is FIT only in those SIGN LORD Houses – who resonate with KETU’s energy!

MARS, JUPITER are the only FRIENDS of KETU. And this is deep, maybe someday I will elaborate on this. Already my new book – Why Ketu Can Heal – a 530 pages jumbo book is on its way for a worldwide release on Amazon – this September 18th, but still I will definitely would love to elaborate on the FRIENDS of KETU – with a question – WHY?

So you see – wherever RAHU is FIT – exact opposite to that house – KETU is FIT!

And this is so beautiful, this is indeed so deep, only my genuine followers and readers could relate to this whole beauty unfoldingâ€Ļ.

RAHU is DESIRE.

KETU is DESIRELESSNESS.

The whole ‘balance’ of your life – the whole ‘balance’ of your horoscope is totally based on the placement of RAHU and KETU!

If the ‘Jodi’ falls in the UNFIT houses – somewhere the balance between DESIRES and DESIRELESSNESS has NOT been in harmony in the past births – the native now need to find the balance – the native has this LIFE to make the necessary changes that can upgrade his next life to the NEXT LEVEL of consciousness!

Ignorant people think that after DEATH – there is some kind of HEAVEN and some CHANGE is going to happen – in reality you CONTINUE with your JOURNEY after DEATH based on the LEVEL OF YOUR CONSCIOUSNESSES at the last moment of your DEATH. That is why DEATH CHART is as IMPORTANT as your BIRTH CHART! That is why the DAY and TIME of DEATH is as IMPORTANT as the time and date of your BIRTH!

And so when you reincarnate, you will bring that same nature with you. To change, you have to make the effort. THIS WORLD is the PLACE to do it.

This placement of MOON VENUS RAHU in the 5th house can be managed if you can CONTROL your HUNGER for MORE -RAHU!

RAHU is always asking you all to DO MORE.

And so it is necessary to first CONTROL RAHU.

How will you control RAHU? That must be your next question.

What is RAHU – it is the NORTH NODE of the MOON!

So you see – MOON has a direct connection with RAHU.

MOON is your MIND.

The High Tides and Low Tides of the vast OCEAN is impacted by the PHASES of the MOON.

In human body – if there is anything that is in abundance than that is BLOOD. This BLOOD is salty. That is how you have High Blood Pressure (High Tide) and Low Blood Pressure (Low Tide) based on the state of your MIND (Moon)!

When you are ANGRY – the BLOOD is BOILING – the whole body of yours is experiencing a HIGH TIDE – and when you are NERVOUS – your body is experiencing a LOW TIDE.

You see – the state of MIND controls the state of your physical body.

And MOON and its phases impacts the state of your mind!

That is why generally during AMAVASYA (New MOON NIGHT – NO MOON NIGHT) – certain medical doctors avoid doing any operations – and also they don’t do major surgeries and operations during FULL MOON NIGHT – because the flow of the blood is not stable – it is in FULL SWING.

A well know heart transplant specialist and surgeon Dr. Nitu Mandke would always follow the phases of the moon for deciding the most suitable day for surgery or operations. He is the same doctor who had done heart transplant for Balasaheb Thackery.

Moon impacts your Mind. Mind is the source of your DESIRE (Rahu).

And so if you want to control RAHU than first you have to learn to control your MIND!

“It is the Human Mind that creates its own difficulties and then cries for HELP.” – Bhagavan Ramana Maharshi

One has to first take control of his or her mind and then when you can control, when you can hold it – you can also DROP it and the moment you drop it – you become a YOGI – that is the highest state of meditation – it is indeed the state of Buddhahood.

A man who is taking the efforts to drop the mind, a man who is meditating by focusing on the breathing – a man who is slowly moving beyond the mind – is coming to the stage of splendor, to the stage of divinity.

That is why – I am always in favor of CHANDRA KETU conjunction – because the moment KETU come in contact with the MOON (MIND) – the native gets the strength to move beyond MIND. With this conjunction – either the man becomes MAD or an enlightened being!

One has to understand the fact – that a MAD person has absolutely NO MIND – he is living in a NO MIND STATE.

An enlightened being – a YOGI – a Buddha is also living in a NO MIND STATE.

The only difference that makes one a mad and the other an enlightened being – is the DOOR.

The mad person has gone beyond the mind – but through a WRONG DOOR – through the BACK DOOR – UNCONSCIOUSLY.

The enlightened being, the Buddha has gone beyond the mind – through the RIGHT DOOR – the FRONT DOOR – CONSCIOUSLY.

Once a disciple asked Avatar Meher Baba “ How come you spend so much time with MAD – INSANE people when SANE people are available and they want your time.”

Avatar Meher Baba said “ You don’t understand. To bring a sane person out of his sanity is very difficult. But to bring out a madman is very easy because in a way he is already out, but from the back door. He has tasted something of the outside; we have only to show him the right door and say “ Please don’t go out from the wrong door, go from the right door. Being out is perfectly right, but choose the right door.”

And Meher Baba turned many mad people into enlightened people.

Great sharing is never rewarded, great answers are always collapsed, great people are always ignored – and YET it doesn’t matter to them because their greatness is cannot be taken away, no matter how much you try to overshadow them – the ‘SUN’ always comes out – the ‘Light’ always finds its wayâ€Ļ.always!

Always remember – and I say it to all my readers and followers – that answer to RAHU’s DARKNESS (Ignorance) is SUN’s BRIGHTNESS (Consciousness)!

When RAHU is in the 5th House – it is casting its SHADOW of OBSESSION towards ‘Love-Affairs’ – it wants more ‘excitement’ in LOVE-AFFAIRS – Sex also need to have some excitement – else SEX is boring! Erotic is the word when Rahu falls with Moon and Venus. These native like some sexual erotic stuff to enjoy the many dimensions of love affairs. Because of RAHU in 5th – they also want SPECULATE and generally do a lot of trading in Stock Markets or if exaggerated – then also indulge in GAMBLING.

From a positive angle – this is a good placement for MODELLING, ACTING – provided the other aspects are beneficial and supportive. Such a woman is indeed a ‘poem’ – or an ‘erotic romantic native’ who generally NEVER brings boredom to her Lover!

Generally any woman or man who has MOON with VENUS is a TREAT for his or her partner. Because these men or women have a lot of ‘entertaining stuff’ within them – they generally never make their partner feel bored – they indeed are good entertainers and also excellent romantic partners!

In your case – RAHU – has also joined – so now this matter of romance becomes more fiery – more spicy – more erotic – more romantic – more dramatic!

‘MORE’ comes when RAHU comes. Always remember this.

MORE is the word for RAHU

RAHU in 1st House – MORE FOCUS ON SELF. A SELF CENTERED PERSON. SELFISH TO THE CORE.

RAHU 2nd House – MORE FOCUS ON GAINING FAMILY PRESTIGE. MORE FOCUS ON ACCUMULATING WEALTH AND PRESTIGE IN GENERAL.

RAHU 3rd HOUSE – MORE FOCUS ON SIBLINGS, TAKING RISKS, GOING ON ADVENTURES

RAHU IN 4TH HOUSE – MORE FOCUS ON HOME, MOTHER, SECURITY. THEY WANT MORE SECURITY. THEY LIKE TO LIVE WITH GUARDS AROUND THEM. THEY LOVE TO ACQUIRE MORE AND MORE PROPERTIES.

RAHU IN 5TH HOUSE – MORE INCLINATION TOWARDS COMPETING IN EXAMS, ROMANCING, LOVE AFFAIRS, – GENERALLY DISLIKE RITUALS OF ALL KINDS. NOT A VERY TRADITIONAL PERSON. INTELLECTUAL AND LOVES TO GATHER KNOWELDGE – MORE AND MORE.

RAHU IN 6TH HOUSE – MORE DISPUTES, MORE DISCIPLINED, MORE FOCUSED ON HEALTH, GENERALLY WHEN I VISIT HEALTH CLUBS AND WATCH CERTAIN MEN AND WOMEN DOING TOO MUCH OF EXERCISE – TOO MUCH – THEY GENERALLY HAVE SOME CONNECTION WITH THE 6TH – AND RAHU.

RAHU IN 7TH HOUSE – MORE SEXUAL BY NATURE, WANTS MORE SEX, WANTS REAL TIME SEXUAL UNIONS, DEMANDS SEX – a wife having a husband with RAHU 7 – always finds it challenging to satisfy her husband’s unending sexual demands – MORE BUSINESSLIKE – MORE SHOW-OFF type person.

RAHU IN 8TH HOUSE – MORE OBSESSED WITH SECRETS, MYSTERIES, OCCULTISM, TANTRA – GENERALLY GETS INVOLVED IN TANTRA SEX. GENERALLY THESE MEN AND WOMEN ARE THE followers of the ‘AGHOR’ version of Lord SHIVA! SHIVA is BOTH – GHOR (Positive) and AGHOR (Negative). RAHU 8th natives are generally attracted towards the Negative side of SHIVA – AGHOR. And so Black Magic, Tantra, Hypnosis – and all kind of such stuff and all kind of such babas are seen through this placement.

RAHU in 9th HOUSE – MORE RELIGIOUS. THOSE TRADITIONAL PRIESTS AND PUNDITS and those hard liners are found with this placement. Obsession towards FATHER or fatherly figures

RAHU in 10th HOUSE – MORE OBSESSED WITH CAREER GROWTH. THESE MEN AND WOMEN want QUICK PROMOTIONS. THEY are a REAL THREAT to their immediate MANAGERS or BOSS – because they are always trying to see how soon they can GRAB the seat of their BOSS. If you have a sub-ordinate with RAHU in 10th then be aware – your ‘seat of power/authority’ is on his radar!

RAHU in 11th house – MORE OBSESSED WITH HAVING FRIENDS. They are so much obsessed with their GIRLFRIEND or BOYFRIEND – that their whole world revolves around their NETWORK, their FRIEND CIRCLE and their GIRL FRIEND (s).

RAHU in 12th HOUSE – MORE OBSESSED TOWARDS MATTERS THAT AR NOT VISIBLE TO THE NAKED EYES. IT CAN BE A POSITIVE ASPECT FOR A YOGI – IF OTHER SUPPORTIVE ASPECTS ARE PRESENT. GENERALLY THESE PEOPLE LIKE TO MEDITATE, LIKE TO TRY ALL KIND OF WAYS TO EXPERIENCE THE SUPER NATURAL. THIS RAHU BRINGS FOREIGN CONNECTION – GENERALLY MEN AND WOMEN WITH THIS PLACEMENT ARE TOO MUCH FASCINATED BY FOREIGN PLACES AND FOREIGN PEOPLE. ANYTHING THAT IS FOREIGN – RAHU 12 GETS ATTRACTED.

So this is the whole story of RAHU through 12 houses – with focus on one word that summarizes RAHU – the word – MORE.

“There is no calamity greater than lavish desires There is no greater guilt than discontentment And there is no greater disaster than greed. Greed is a bottomless pit which exhausts the person in an endless effort to satisfy the need without ever reaching satisfaction.” – LAO TZU

The only remedy to this placement of RAHU with MOON VENUS in 5th house – is to try to CURB your WANT MORE attitude. And you will be able to do so only by controlling your mind.

How to control the mind?

By meditating every day! Through meditation you gain control over the monkey mind. And then once MIND comes in your control – you can manage your worldly affairs effectively.

And a man or woman who want to experience beyond – the divine – goes a step ahead – they simply drop the mind!

Always remember – whenever you FACE problems from RAHU – the source is the MIND (MOON).

And when MIND is the PROBLEM – the solution is MEDITATION.

Whether you are a lover – a husband – a wife – an officer or a businessman – whether you are having issues in your sexual life – or – professional life – or emotional relations in your life – MEDITATION – is the ‘key’.

Many times I get questions about not being able to satisfy the other person (wife/girlfriend) sexually. The ‘honeymoon’ ends before it begins! The problem is the MIND – you miss on the ‘real action’ and you focus more on your ‘ sexual fantasies” – the ‘game’ then gets over soon – you are back to normalcy! This all happens because you are too much caught up in the MIND – the MIND loves to live in fantasies – but when it comes to ‘sexual union’ – you have to focus on being REAL – on the actual ‘action’! In the ancient age – the seers were not bachelors – they were married and their sexual union was based on the exact placement of ‘stars’ – because to the seers every sexual union is not just for pleasure but also to bear the ‘fruit’ (childbirth) from the pleasure that they indulge in! Many Rishis had great sons and daughters and they became great because their ‘conception’ was planned by executing ‘sexual union’ at a specific YOGA – star, planet conjunctions!

Although we see BIRTH CHART as our only CHART – the real CHART is formed when the baby is conceived in the ‘would-be’ mother’s womb. Paramhansa Yogananda had mentioned about this ‘invisible chart’ and he said because common beings certainly cannot derive the ‘conception’ chart – they have to rely on the actual BIRTH CHART!

The real subtle horoscope is the horoscope of the time and date when the woman is conceived with a baby.

RAHU with MOON and VENUS in the 5th house definitely provides the happiness and the experience of motherhood! A woman is no more the same woman – the moment she becomes a ‘Mother’!

Overall – it is a good placement – only if you can CURB the ‘DO MORE’ attitude and the over-indulgence in seeking more pleasures.

Meditate every morning and evening – life cannot be controlled – the river flow cannot be controlled – but when you ‘sail’ – you can always ‘control’ your mind and ensure that you continue to ‘flow’ – because only the one who flows – remains afresh, aflame with life! The water in the river is always fresh, because the water is always flowingâ€Ļâ€Ļwithout bothering about the PAST and worrying about the FUTURE!

Be like the river – keep flowingâ€Ļ..and always remain OPEN to CHANGE!

Remain continuously alive – full of life – and you will be able to do so when you continue to bring awareness to your ‘self’!

Jai Shri Ganesha. Jai Guru. 🙏
