Ketu in Libra (Tula)
When Ketu (Ketu), the karaka of detachment, moksha, intuition, past life, loss, occupies Libra (Tula), a air sign ruled by venus, its energy takes on the diplomatic, charming, fair, social qualities of the sign.
The core meaning of Ketu in Libra
Ketu is the south lunar node, a shadow planet of detachment, spirituality and liberation. It gives sudden losses but also deep intuition and moksha.
Ketu expresses here through the lens of Venus, the lord of Libra, blending the two energies.
