How Rahu and Ketu Impart Effects

Since Rahu and Ketu do not own any particular house, the question is how do they impart their good or bad effects ? The answer was given by Maharishi Parashar in 13th and 21st dictum of Laghu Parashari that they act as per their position in house as well as association and relationship with planets.
That they give results-
1. Of the house which they occupy
2. As per the lord of that house with which they exist
3. If they occupy any angle or trine and get associated with the lord of either angle or trine

Catalytic agent

It is observed that they act as catalytic agent and hence have power to intensify 10 times the good or bad results of the planet with whom they exist or whose house they occupy.

Material Growth - Rahu + Spiritual Growth - Ketu

In general, Rahu carries the positive and beneficial tone of Jupiter and hence stands for growth and development and self help while Ketu expresses the restrictions and obstacles of Saturn and hence thought to restrict growth.
In this way Rahu represents positive objectives and Ketu denotes the easy way out with little opportunity for growth. Thus Rahu signifies materialism and desires, whereas Ketu signifies spiritual tendencies and process of the refinement of materialization to spirit but obstacles in the material realm.

Horoscope Signs / Note

  2. while Ketu, in turn, is powerful in the opposite signs, ie, Libra, Scorpio, Sagittarius, Capricon, Aquarius and Pisces

25 Years - 18 Years Rahu + 7 Years Ketu of 120 Years of Human Life

 Rahu and Ketu do not own any signs, but they do own nakshatras, and hence are assigned appropriate dasha periods in the Vimshottari dasha system. 
  1. Rahu owns Ardra, Swati and Shatabisha and has 18 years 
  2. Ketu owns Ashvini, Magha and Moola nakshatras and has 7 years out 
of 120 years of Vimshottari dasha period.

Scientific insight

The nodal points of the Moon what we call Rahu and Ketu are, infact, clubs of magnetic and gravitational forces of two celestial bodies, the Moon and the Earth and hence are very influential on the life of mankind. These points affect our central nervous system as well as sympathetic and para-sympathetic nervous systems which work on the principles of electro-magnetic systems. Consequently, they have direct impacts on the generation of signals of informations in neurons and neuro-transmitters and their movement from brain to various parts of our body and back to the brain. In this way, these nodal points (Rahu and Ketu) are psycho-somatic which govern not only the stress level of our mind but also the activities of hormones, blood circulation and function of the heart. This becomes more important at present time of intense competition at various levels of survival for gains of physical comforts when we have been very prone to psycho-somatic problems which creep up cardiac problems. In this scenario, astrological study of so called Rahu-Ketu in one’s horoscope is very note-worthy.
