Rahu and Ketu Yagyas - April 2008

September 9, 2008

In the vedic tradition the movements play a vital and central role in the understanding of events and the ability of the individual to live in harmony with the universe.  One of the best times to perform yagyas to balance the influence of the planets is when they are changing signs.  Rahu and Ketu do this every 18 months, and so this yagya was performed in Kanchipuram, South India for that purpose.
