Please Note: This is general prediction and results may vary based on aspects | conjunction | strength of planet, rashi placed etc.

Rahu is the north lunar node (ascending) and it along with Ketu is a “shadow planet” that causes eclipses. Rahu has no physical shape. It is an imaginary planet but considering the importance of Rahu in astrology, it has been allocated the status of the planet by Rishis. Rahu is known to confer malefic effects in general and is considered as a planet which induces laziness, delays, and hurdles in work. Rahu is known to reflect its shadow for 18 months in a zodiac. It can create confusion, depression and emotional imbalance if placed negatively in the horoscope. It is said that if Rahu sits in an auspicious position in the horoscope of a person, then luck is brightened. With this, the person attains sharp intellect. The native receives honour and fame in the society.

We have been reading so far, Third house is house of your communication skills, neighbours, short distance travels, younger siblings, self-efforts etc. At the same time, as 3rd house is house of efforts, this house shows that results of this house will come only when person will put lots of efforts for a long time. One thing to remember here is that 3rd house is First of Upachaya Houses ( 3, 6, 10 & 11). Upachaya Houses improve with time. It means any planet in these houses improves in results with age and real good result is seen from a person’s 30s or 36s. Also, all the malefic planets provide very good results in Upachaya Houses but results may be seen in 30s or 36s.

So when Rahu in 3rd house of Cancer (Karka) Ascendant (Lagna), it means Your Rahu is in Virgo sign which is a — sign for Rahu. Rahu is lord of 8th house and situated in 3rd house.
