What is Rahu Ketu Puja?
Rahu Ketu Puja pacifies the shadow planets Rahu and Ketu with their japam, Durga and Ganapati worship and dana, for relief from confusion, sudden setbacks, Sarpa dosha and the effects of Rahu or Ketu dasha.
Rahu and Ketu are the lunar nodes that cause eclipses. When they afflict the Moon, Sun or key houses — or during their dashas and the 18-month transits — families do this shanti, traditionally starting in Rahu kaalam.
