INTRODUCTION TO KETU
(A Deep Nadi + Vedic + Tantric Interpretation)
Ketu is not a planet.
Ketu is a remnant of your past lives — a fragment of pure karmic memory drifting across incarnations.
In the language of Nadi sages, Ketu is called:
“The Forgotten Self.”
In Tantra, Ketu is:
“The Flame that Burns the Ego.”
And in Vedic Moksha texts, Ketu is described as:
“The Graha that dissolves the illusion of separation.”
Whereas the other planets govern your experiences in this lifetime,
Ketu governs what you carry from lifetimes you don’t consciously remember.
It holds the residue of old desires, unfinished karmas, abandoned identities, spiritual attainments, and emotional impressions that still color your soul’s journey.
Ketu is the moksha-karaka — the ultimate liberator.
It pulls you away from anything temporary, superficial, or ego-based, not because it wants you to lose…
but because it wants you to remember.
Remember the truth of who you were before you became “you.”
Remember the wisdom you earned across centuries of evolution.
Remember the spiritual purpose that lies beneath worldly attachments.
Ketu is the silent teacher — the one who teaches through absence.
It cuts, detaches, removes, isolates, and empties your world so that the soul can awaken to its highest intelligence.
In Nadi tradition, Ketu represents the oldest birth in your soul cluster,
the memory you have repeated so many times that this lifetime no longer needs to re-experience it.
Thus, you feel detached from whatever house or sign Ketu occupies.
In Tantra, Ketu is the smoke rising from the sacred fire —
it has no shape, no graspable form, no predictable pattern.
It appears in dreams, in intuitions, in déjà vu, in sudden flashes of insight, in unexplained fears, and in mysterious connections with strangers who feel familiar.
It is the graha of:
-
Psychic sensitivity
-
Past-life echoes
-
Invisible karmic contracts
-
Loss that awakens
-
Solitude that purifies
-
Mystical perception
-
Dissolution of identity
And ultimately:
Moksha — the release from the rebirth cycle.
To understand Ketu is to understand the soul’s exhaustion —
the ancient desire to end samsara
and return to the original source.
Ketu shows where the soul is already wise,
where it is already complete,
and where it must now let go so it can rise.
It is the planet of sages, monks, mystics, ascetics, yogis, shamans, and those rare individuals who feel out of place in the material world —
not because they are lost,
but because they are remembering.
