THE HISTORY
It is believed that, at the time of Samudra Manthan, lord Vishnu tricked the demons into distributing the nectar. He served all of it to the Gods and demons were given poison. Swarbhanu noticed this and sat in the row of Gods and got a few drops of nectar. Moon and sun saw this and told lord Vishnu who cut the head of the demon but by then he was eternalized. From then, the head of the demon is called ‘Rahu’ and the body is called ‘Ketu’. The body (Ketu) didn’t know where to follow as it has no head so it followed spirituality. This planet detaches the native from materialistic gains and luxury.
Originally, Rahu and Ketu are demons and it is believed that they swallow the sun which is the reason for solar and lunar eclipses. As both Rahu and Ketu are incomplete without each other, they are always lacking satisfaction and fulfillment.
