The results of Rahu and Ketu transit are more pronounced for those in whose individual charts, Rahu or Ketu is placed in the nakshatras of Rahu and Ketu transiting during 2023-2025.  It is even seen that if one is going through Rahu or Ketu mahadasas and their Rahu and Ketu are placed in Meena or Kanya, results will be pronounced.  The effect will also be felt more if in an individual’s chart Moon is conjunct with either of these nodes in either Meena or Kanya.  These nodes are known as karmic nodes and their placement in our natal chart represents the debt we carry from our previous birth (sanchita karma) related to those houses. When these nodes transit in certain houses, just see those house placements on your natal chart, say if in your natal chart, Meena is 5th house then you will see a trigger in the aspects related to children, and you will enroll in some higher studies, you may get involved in a romantic relationship etc.

A major thing to note is that these transit predictions are general in nature. But, an Individual’s chart analysis along with dasa predictions will give an accurate picture.
