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

Example: Bill Gates

Deep apathy toward the karaka functions of radix lagna: physical vitality and material appearance. The native loses interest in developing the social personality, in physical exercise and muscular competitiveness, and in fleshly self-maintenance such as grooming and costume.

In Mithuna, radix lagna's manifestation of the past-life patterns into material form of the current-life fleshly appearance will acquire Budha-like communicative characteristics. The native tends to have a quick, mentalized personality that is naturally capable with words, logic, and arguments. Sibling rank defines the social identity.

During Ketu's transit across Mithuna rashi, the bodily vitality is somewhat diffused by uncertainty of one's communicative role and status. The native tends to assume the witness posture even while the public may continue to project attributes and values upon one's personality. It almost doesn't matter what society does or says; the native will have one's own views based on observation and not be much concerned with protocol, social ranking, approved behaviors, conventions etc. If there is a corresponding Vimshottari period of Ketu (or Rahu) in operation during the transit, the effects are more pronounced.

One tends to lose interest in self-justification within groups (family, community, society) and self-maintenance, particularly on the physical level. Apathy toward the flesh, toward muscular fitness, grooming, and overall material health, is evident. A time of withdrawal and rather vague transactions with the material world.

An excellent period for meditation, extended foreign travel such as pilgrimage, and withdrawal into interior spiritual practice. Those with psychic gifts will find the healing channels open wide with little concern to match the astral awareness to the laws of material world. Tendency to get disconnected from mundane others, but spiritual and psychic community based on intuitive recognition of soul relationships is increased.
