Ketu though an imaginary but is a powerful planet. Its effects can be wide & one can have a direct impact when it transits from one to the other sign.

For Ketu, my observation is that Ketu can be devastating if not handled properly. It is the planet of contraction exactly opposite to Rahu which is the planet of expansion. 

Ketu tends to show it is giving but whatever it gives is not permanent therefore one should never feel pampered with whatever Ketu gives. Ketu can give mental tensions, health issues, increase your expenditure, inability to repay loans & like that, But nothing to worry about because Ketu’s transit in some houses/moon signs can give excellent chances of accumulating wealth, chances of foreign travel, professional upliftment, happiness in married life, and many other such benefits.

Eclipse

Eclipse means shadowing or say to capture/swallow others (in Hindi it is known as ग्रहण).  According to Indian mythology, eclipses take place when the two shadow planets, Rahu and Ketu, swallow the Sun and the Moon.

What are Eclipses

Both types of Eclipses herald significant changes & these are not for good. The period of Eclipses are not considered good to start anything that is important as the impact of both the power ( Sun) and your Mind (Moon) will be totally diminished by Rahu and Ketu.

Impact of Eclipses

The overall impact of these Eclipses would be both friendly and harmful. A small precaution in your acts during these Eclipses can help a person to keep the adversities of these periods away and reap the benefits of favourable.

Conjunction of Planets

When two or more planets get into the same house, they tend to form planetary conjunction. But the question that comes to one's mind is: What will happen when planets conjunct each other in a particular house? Well, they give a brief explanation about your life. Conjunction formed between planets can be malefic or benefic, depending on the planets' nature, their relationship with each other, and the house/sign they are positioned in. The planet's strength is also considered to know whether the planet is retrograde, combust, or direct.  

Conjunction of Planets in different houses

Regarding conjunction, five or six planets may be positioned in the same house. But it rarely happens. The horoscopes with such a type of conjunction are too difficult to decipher. So, one should take great care to determine how planets impact each other. Also, there could be a planetary combination or Yoga formed due to the conjunction. If a malefic planet is operating in the same house, Yoga may not benefit the native.

On the contrary, when malefic or weak planets get conjoined in a house, a benefic planet's presence could balance the situation. However, its power would be low due to the malefic influence of another planet. Such a type of horoscope is considered average.

How is the Native’s Life Characterized by Conjunction? 

The focus area of one's life is characterized by the conjunction of many planets in a particular house. That means the house where many planets are positioned. However, there could be a disbalance in the native's personality due to a single house's strong pull. The lord of the house, where the conjunction of planets occurs, is also put under the spotlight. If it is placed well, it gives benefic influence upon the native. It also makes other planets strong. Nevertheless, if it is under the malefic influence or weekly positioned, it may provide only negative results, and the situation may be retrograde.

Let us discuss the impact of various planetary combinations

The planets’ conjunction takes place in the 11th house (governing income and expansion), so the native would focus on increasing his income. 

Mercury, the lord of the 5th house (an indicator of education), would increase earnings from learning and intellect. As it is also the lord of the eighth house, it may give gains to the native all of a sudden, but simultaneously hurdles and health issues in life may crop up. 

If the Moon, the lord of the 6th house (an indicator of difficulties), is placed in Sagittarius, the native will face many struggles in his life but will work very hard and beat the competition to boost his income. 

In the friendly sign, Sun, the 7th lord, will give the native earnings from spouse and partnerships. 

Venus, which is considered the 4th and 9th lord, is the Yogakaraka for this horoscope, which will give sufficient opportunities to the natives to earn lots of money. If it is positioned with the Sun and the Moon, its enemies, its benefic benefits will be less effective. But Venus is very benefic for this type of horoscope.
