About Rahu

Rahu, the north node of the Moon, is a shadow planet of desire, ambition and the unconventional. It links to foreign lands, technology, media, politics and anything new or outside tradition. Rahu magnifies whatever it touches, bringing sudden rises and restless hunger. Its house shows where you want more and where you must stay grounded.

About the 5th house

The fifth house is creativity and intelligence: children, romance, studies, speculation, mantras and the merit carried from the past. It shows intelligence, judgement, romance, creativity and children. It is also the house of past-life merit (purva punya), devotion and the ability to advise others.
