[QUOTE="midnightsun, post: 65329, member: 463"] What Indian name would you give me? I call my dog Ketu sometimes too “In Vedic astrology, Ketu is a "shadow planet" (shadowy node) representing the descending lunar node, symbolizing karmic collections, detachment, spirituality, and liberation(Moksha). As the tail of the serpent-demon Svarbhanu, it signifies the separation from material desires, fostering intense intuition, introspection, and sometimes sudden, transformative, or chaotic life changes.
