What is Rahu?
Rahu is the north lunar node and a marker of hunger and disruption. The term matters because accurate chart reading depends on connecting concepts to computed placements, not memorizing isolated definitions.
Plain meaning
Rahu means the north lunar node and a marker of hunger and disruption. In practice, it is read alongside sign, house, graha, nakshatra, dasha, and yoga context.
How it appears in Soul Yatri
Soul Yatri uses rahu as part of a larger engine-derived reading. The public kundali page shows the computed values first, then links to learning pages like this one.
Common mistake
The mistake is treating rahu as a standalone prediction. Always check the full chart and timing before drawing conclusions.
