Their influence is often intense and can manifest as sudden changes, confusion, delays, and deep transformative experiences. When these nodes are afflicted in a birth chart, they give rise to Rahu–Ketu Dosha, which may affect career, relationships, health, and mental peace. 🔥 Rahu Ketu Shanti Homam A powerful Vedic remedy to balance these energies is the Rahu Ketu Shanti Homam, a sacred fire ritual performed to pacify planetary influences, reduce karmic burdens, and restore harmony. This homam is often conducted at the sacred Navagraha Teertha kshetra of Kumbakonam. 🌑 What is Rahu–Ketu Dosha?
