Ketu the tough teacher and the dasha sandhi period

 

ketu is called a headless planet but it is not headless or without vision the symbol of headless denotes things that cannot be veiwed by the wordly sense . The head which is Rahu is the sense world totally focussed in making it high in the material world . Ketu just takes away the material world and shows what is beyond . It forces you to shift focus away from material world . If you are deeply spirutual by nature ketu won't trouble much till it reaches the dasha sandhi phase because as at the starting of the ketu dasha giving up material things was difficult so that end of ketu dasha returing back in the material world seems very difficult . The end of dasha fills with great self doubt on nature of lessons learned in the Ketu dasha and it seems the seven years in the dasha were a mirage and the path trodden so far were a dream and you start to come back in the material world realizing the harsh reality that always existed outside and now you crave for the ketu dream which is now no where to be found . The first year the Venus Mahadasha can be very tough as new dasha tries to push back hard into the material world . The God that stood nearby once seems to be long gone and world seems to be pressing you to show your worldy success. The spiritual illusion seems shaken and need to rebuild reality is pressing as you try to come out a coccon the world seems harder but there is no going back ,while end Rahu dasha is a great pull back from material world ,the end of ketu is a great push into the material world . At the end of the rahu dasha the Spiritual faith being to awaken while at the end of ketu dasha spiritual faith seems all too shaken . It is  perhaphs the toughest dasha sandhi or gear change and don't expect it to be smooth towards the end it teaches the hardest lessons on Neti Neti , neither this nor that towards the end . The first year in the Venus dasha will go in un learning the Ketu lessons and If Venus is not positive in the chart it could be the end of the world as the only way ahead is material and ketu will take away everything spiritual by the end of the Dasha. The Mercury period was a learning period where you gained a lot of skills . The Ketu dasha nullified those skills and in the ends teaches you coping mechanism but the venus dasha shows the harsh realities of the material world and forces you with a sense of urgency to act and to act fast , to fail and to fail fast, to learn and to unlearn fast . While saturn gave you a lot of time to procstinate Venus doesn't allow procastination . Saturn becomes exalted in Libra as here is it forced to take risk though calculated , while Saturn doesn't want to take risk that is why it is debilitated in Aries. To act and to act promptly . The Ketu dasha makes you loose so much that your fear of risk is gone and in Venus dasha you are in the game ready to take risks . Now if Venus is good in chart your rsik will start giving results immediately otherwise you will have to reiterate, work again  and again  take risks.
