Rishi Ji, yes, it would scare you and me also, but that's virtually a product of the over-hyped Yog that is Kal Sarpa Yog!
You know something. Balance of life is not something everybody possesses with or without Kal Sarpa Yog. You will hardly find people leading a balanced life these days. Yes, I agree that Rahu and Ketu play a pivotal role in hindering that aspect of life because these two are all about Karma and Dharma.
RishiRahul= With all planets bein set on one side of a chart automatically makes it lopsided. It loses in visual balance. Ever tried visual balancing?
I know quite a few people with Kal Sarpa Yog, and of course, they are leading completely different lives, yet something, something called as "dissatisfaction" concerns them all. They have their problems and complications, which affects their lives. Here this Yog plays a crucial role - more than any other combination.

I respect your opinion. You have rich knowledge and memories of Astrology, and I am just learning - just starting out, but I pardon to differ here. Out there in this materialistic world, the modern Astrologers have made a mockery of this divine art. They give emphasis to Yog like Kal Sarpa Yog, Mangleek Dosha, etc; while completely disregard the real gems of Astrology - the 9 planets. Am I generalizing? Maybe yes. But, what I know is Astrologers today are mostly "Upayacharees" rather than "Jyotish Gurus." These people have made out a big deal of Kal Sarpa Yog, Mangleek Dosha, etc.
RishiRahul= We were taliking of people with Kalsarpa yoga going to the wrong astrologers. Not all people with Kalsarpa yoga go to astrologers for advice in the world.
To which I did not quite agree and said that, quote]RishiRahul= not too sure about this though. Personal experience should not be brought here. |
KN Rao once stated that a woman had to come to her and was very anxious because some Astrologer claimed that she had Mangleek Dosha, which would prove fatal in their relationship. KN Rao analyzed the women's chart and asked the women, "Is your husband in Army?" She replied yes. KN Rao said, "That's your Mangleek Dosha." Nothing to worry.
The divine thing here is that Mangleek Dosha creates a separation between husband/wife. Depending on strength, the separation can be mutual or due to discord. As it is, malefics are known to separate spouses from one another, whether it is mutual or due to discords is another issue and depends upon other factors.
RishiRahul= Exactly and well said. The yoga is overrated.
Kal Sarpa Yog creates a separation internally, as Rahu-Ketu act internally. It creates mental confusion in sectors denoted by Rahu and Ketu. Simply, people having Rahu in the 2nd house and Ketu in 8th, and all planets amidst them; what happens? Such people are ever concerned by their financial lockers. Huh? Similarly, people with Kal Sarpa Yog in the 4-10 axis; such people have less 4th house traits and more 10th house traits. Now, that may not be physically apparent, but more internally evolving! This is where the magic lies.
RishiRahul= Will give detailed examples on this in the Vedic astrology classes which are on in this forum. One should not generalise here. Though the snake(Rahu Ket) obstructs the 1/7,7/1,2/8,8/2 etc. etc. All of which have different meanings.
Astrology is an art. A chart tells us the story of the 9 planets in a beautiful way. We have the calculations and all, but Phalit Jyotish is an art, a beautiful representation of our lives through the reference point of the 9 planets that guide our destiny. Should we really put one above the other? Not really because all have equal roles to play in our lives. Hence, we should balance all the planets and not just focus on one Yog, but the hundreds of Yogas in our chart!

RishiRahul= You have said these so well. Have put my broken thoughts in words. But the expression is probably personal and more/very strongly put.
The native is not able to progress, in keeping with his qualities. Are generally more vibrant in nature/life in the early years..... obviously to circumstances which act as a hurdle. |
Thank you for acknowledging my words!
Over-reacting is a word I'd associate with Kal Sarpa as well.

RishiRahul= Sometimes I wish I was 21 years old with such wisdom.
The axis, but, still exists. Why?..................................................thinking...........logic.........
......................YES. The native tries to reach 'it' too fast....therefore leading to imbalances in his/her nature/life. |
I'm just starting and with the help of experienced people like you, I'm sure I'll learn something.
RishiRahul= I hope understand the hint I gave in the above quote; if you have Kalsarpa yoga, that is?
Saturn also has a say in using shortcuts in life. Saturn wants you to use the long walk; Rahu being the head motivates us to use shortcuts and fail miserably. This is where Saturn comes into play. You use shortcuts, and you'll fail because Saturn spares nobody. The classic story of Bhole Shankar comes into imagination!

RishiRahul= They may say so, but Rahu in the 3rd. means too much courage. As it is planets in one side of Rahu/Ketu or Ketu/Rahu is imbalance.
I am not agrreeing with this logic. But do not let my thoughts influence your search for understanding, as it could obstruct your development. |
Rahu in 3rd can create a Lord Ram or a Kansha. It can make somebody a saint or it can make somebody a monster. It all depends upon other influences.
RishiRahul= Unless you write the full reference to the context the sense gets lost. The logic I did not agree to was...Rahu in the 3rd house is the exception, as it is supposed to destroy all the Doshas in the chart, if Rahu is in the 3rd. Well they say so....

| RishiRahul=Then an advice. You have long way to go. Many hurdles will come in your way as you grow up and enter 'Maya' more. |
Maya and Moha are two things that can destroy human beings. Since we are talking about Rahu, Rahu plays a significant role in this as well. Ketu wants us to attain spirituality, but Rahu motivates us to experience the materialistic world, and drown in it. Another reason for the complication that is life today!
