Rahu in the 9th house
Rahu represents hunger, ambition, disruption, foreignness, and obsession. The 9th house governs teachers, dharma, luck, belief, pilgrimage, and higher learning. 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.
