Rahu in the 10th house
Rahu represents hunger, ambition, disruption, foreignness, and obsession. The 10th house governs career, reputation, authority, karma, and public contribution. As a lunar node, Rahu is not assessed for digbala; read it through its house, dispositor, conjunctions, and dasha instead. This combination shows where rahu becomes visible in lived experience.
