7:00 Kala Sarpa Yoga – The serpent of time Vijaya Subramanian
It happens when all the planets from the Sun to the Saturn are hemmed between the nodes of Moon splitting the Zodiac into two. People born with this pattern find themselves bound by the events in their life and will undergo restlessness until the nodes reach the age of maturity. Rahu in the front gives rise to a materialistic life, and Ketu in the front will lead to spirituality. This necklace like pattern in the sky also plays an important role in world events.
