We are all aware that Rahu is a shadow planet and is also known as Swarbhanu in Astrology. It is known as the Dragon’s Head because it is the moon’s north-node. Not only that, but this planet is also known as Bhayanka because it is the most feared. Its name comes from the Sanskrit word Raa, which means secretive and mysterious.

The planet Rahu is known for being angry, aggressive, merciless, mischievous, secretive, and mysterious. This planet is also supposed to cause plotting, scheming, and conspiracy, as well as making a person less pious. Furthermore, when Rahu joins with a planet, it enhances the planet’s primary qualities, since Rahu begins to function as a planet. As a result, when Rahu is put in different houses, conditions and circumstances in life alter. The link between Rahu and the other houses is shown here to help you understand its different adverse consequences and causes.
