Rāhu is the north lunar node that eclipses the Sun and Moon, casting shadows to reveal hidden truths. It symbolises both your greatest obstacle and the key to your freedom—the darkness that ultimately leads to light. While often seen as a force for progress, Vedic wisdom reveals Rāhu as the very challenge that stands between you and your deepest desires.

Part journal, part guide, Rāhu Daśā invites you on a transformative journey through Rāhu’s powerful eighteen-year cycle—one of the nine key planetary periods in Vedic astrology. This book helps you confront your fears, dissolve illusions, and unlock the easiest path to living your most authentic life.
