Ketu, the south node of the Moon, is the shadow planet of detachment, intuition and past skills. It gives depth, research ability and spiritual interest, but can make you feel disconnected from the area it occupies. Its house shows what comes naturally to you and where you are learning to let go.
Capricorn is a movable earth sign ruled by Saturn. It stands for ambition, discipline, structure, responsibility and long-term achievement. Planets here become practical, patient and goal-driven. It is the sign of the administrator, the engineer and the builder.
Astrology describes tendencies, not certainties. A single placement is only one part of a chart; the whole kundli, its strength and the running dasha change how it shows up. For guidance and interest only.
