Gochara Ketu-Mithuna contact Rahu: 16-Nov-2009 - 06-June-2011

Example: Brad Pitt

Deep apathy toward the karaka functions of Rahu: desire to possess the forbidden, and a passion for extreme experience.

The Rahu-Ketu opposition transits at age 9-10, 27-28, 45-46, 63-64, 81-82, 99-100, and 117-118 may be periods of flip-flopping indecisiveness, as the native's Rahuvian drive toward amplified, magnified experience is interrupted by Ketu's ambivalence.

One may rush passionately toward possession of a goal, a person, a power, only to experience a sudden apathy in mid-rush, and a quick abandonment of the object of desire. Odd, unsuitable relationships may develop which have weird boomerang effects: the relationship (with person or object of desire) starts, fails, starts again, fails again.

The object of desire behaves erratically. This phenomenon of perception is of course the projection of one's inner ambivalence toward the function of intense passions in the human character. We know that passions are trouble-makers, yet life's great burning desires must be accomplished no matter the cost.

In Mithuna, Rahu's desire-inflaming passions acquire Budha-like communicative characteristics. The native tends to have persuasive conversational or articulatory skills that cause others to be attracted to one while simultaneously permitting breakage of designated social taboos. The specific taboo will be indicated by the bhava (e.g., Brad Pitt, Rahu-Mithuna in pitru bhava-9, the house of fatherhood.)

During Ketu's transit across Mithuna rashi, the desire nature is somewhat blunted by uncertainty and disregard for hunger to possess. Rahu's charisma is reduced.
Good time to take a break from extreme sensual experience. Sex, drugs, mood swings, hormone surges, and wild adventures will not completely stop, but they will follow an erratic pattern due to Ketu inference.

An unstable period in subject-object relations, as the pendulum swings between apathy and desire. Inability to achieve lasting or successful connection with the object of affection, while gochara Ketu resides in the natal rashi of Rahu. After Ketu's transit is completed, if other pointers are favorable, the relationship may stabilize.
