Rahu Homam

Who is Lord Rahu?

Lord Rahu is a shadow planet that does not own any sign in the zodiac system. It works as an agent of the owner of the zodiac sign in which the planet Rahu is placed. When the planet Rahu is placed in a fiery sign, it would also be fierce in nature. Since Rahu has no physical body, like Ketu, it is otherwise known as a ‘Chhaya graha’.

How is Rahu portrayed?

Lord Rahu is depicted as a severed head without a torso. He is dark blue in colour and rides on a lion. Sometimes, he is also depicted as swallowing the Moon or Sun. He faces the south-west in the Navagraha.
