Ketu is a Tamsik graha. Tamas is the energy of destruction, whereas Rahu is of Rajas quality, and Rajas shows sustenance. Whenever we talk about Ketu, Rahu always follows. They are always perfectly parallel to each other. While Ketu wants to destroy everything, Rahu wants you to hold, to sustain the significance of the sign it’s located in.
What happens when Ketu comes into Capricorn? What does it show? As I have said before, planets are not the causative forces. They are the delivery boys who are here to serve the packages of our consciousness. When someone is born with Ketu in Capricorn, the first thing you will notice is that the person completely rejects the social system. Capricorn and Saturn both shows organized society, and Ketu, as a disruptive force, shows that a person’s consciousness will completely reject this organization of society. These people are free wanderers and love to go with the flow. A Ketu in Capricorn person doesn’t know where they belong. He doesn’t belong to society, that’s for sure.
Many times, Ketu in Capricorn natives will get the chance to work on executive levels, and even if they do work, it will not be to satisfy their soul. They are completely detached from the power-seeking positions, and this is what makes them good spiritual leaders. As a Ketu in Capricorn native, it’s futile trying to fit into the herd mentality of Capricorn. You will have to seek an individual path if you wish to get liberated.
Its often seen that when Ketu is in Capricorn, the Rahu in Cancer gives an obsessed mother who seeks ranks in the society. The mother of such native seems overtly ambitious, constantly pushing them to work as per law and order and gain a good reputation. Since both Rahu and Ketu work based on their disposition, the placement of Saturn will completely change the result.
For example, lets consider, Ketu is in Capricorn, while Saturn is in Virgo. Now Ketu is the significator of Saturn in Virgo, and its result will have flavours of both Saturn and Mercury. Such a native will reject the general routines of life once Saturn matures at 36, as the 6th house denotes routine. The focus will shift to liberating (Ketu) through the use of Saturn and Virgo signification, such as helping small animals, exploring unconventional healing methods, studying herbs, and more.
But the result will cjhange drastically, when Ketu sits in Capricorn while Saturn sits in Taurus. Now Ketu is significator of both Saturn and Venus. The person will find their liberation through creative, unconventional professions as denoted by Saturn in Venus.
