Rahu and its Mantra

Rahu

In astrology, Rahu and Ketu are known as shadow planets. Rahu and Ketu do not have body shapes like other planets. According to legends, after churning of the ocean (Samudra Manthan), with many things, came out Amrita. There was a dispute amongst the Devas and Asuras over its distribution. Lord Vishnu did a trick and managed to the whole of it consumed by Devas. However, one Asura also hid in the queue and consumed little Amrita, knowing it Lord cut him in two pieces, head part called ‘Rahu’ and remaining body part called ‘Ketu’. In horoscopes, they are always opposite to each other.
