Your children could be famous and your friends are eminent, but you are unable to establish an enduring relationship with them. You are ignorant of your own long term interests. Immediate gratification is more important to you than permanent gain. Your life in general tends to be a bag of mixed achievement and frustration. Your health may suffer from abuse and irregularity of habit. Secrecy in your life is a very significant issue: Secret alliances, secret pangs and sufferings, secret hiding places, secret enemies, secret friends and secret undertakings.

Mercury in this sign will not be damaging, though your social life is not all it could be. Your life will be a pit of secrecy, and you may receive some legacy. There may be much renown and status as well.
Mercury in 8th House
Mercury has the special characteristic of retrieving from past influences things which strengthen the mind, as a result of which you are able to cultivate relationships which are conducive to material prosperity, eminent status, and considerable wealth. Under this impulse, you are able to explore mystical, virgin areas of nature which open up exceptional opportunities in life.
On the physical plane, however, you beget very few children and suffer from stomach and thigh ailments. This position of Mercury is gainful, as it gives longevity, prosperity, land and property.

With such bitter experiences concerning life, you may become so disenchanted with human relationships that a desire for renunciation dawns.
Saturn in 6th House
Saturn in the sixth house produces sexual problems. Sex will be a very unorthodox kind of experience for you, but out of it there may arise a realization of your spiritual nature. Deprivation of a normal sex life and a tendency towards bizarre or unusual relationships enable you to secure special gifts from unexpected and unknown quarters which remove many personal difficulties. You may not always succeed in relating these two events, but both are impelled by Saturn. You are not necessarily attracted towards an unusual expression of sexuality, but the problem of sex affects your mental body vitally, and in some peculiar manner reveals the mysterious aspects of human motivation. For better or worse, your personal life is vitally affected by these experiences. You may suffer from some physical ailment without expressing your pain to others and doctors may not succeed in treating you easily. In spite of such personal anguish and sorrow, you enjoy great renown and social esteem. You may have trouble and hindrances in early life. There will be no help or support from any quarter and much criticism and little gain after much labor and effort are indicated, as well as trouble for maternal uncles and aunts.

You are brave and intelligent, powerful, fortunate, with plenty of pleasures, jewelry and conveyances, learned, rich and happy, free from enemies, a favorite of the government, loving to your spouse and have lucky sons. You have few relatives and brethren and annihilate your enemies. Growing wealth is indicated. You are blessed with some income or employment, and might get some trouble through maternal uncles.

You are a unique person whose irreligious and materialistic proclivities will cause your subconsciousness, paradoxically, to disgorge all that is ethical in life.
Rahu in 5th House
Your creativity has a strange or foreign aura; not bad, but deep and unusual. Your writing for example, is so deep that others get somewhat absorbed in it. You have a very easy time understanding the lower levels of society, the seedy, the underworld, the poor, the distressed - this is an area where you move easily. You are deeply interested in liberation from material entanglement and expert in understanding the inner meaning of things, in other words, you have insight.

Watch out for your own difficulties with the heart and lungs. You will probably have at least one son. You worry much, and have few friends. Your first child may pose some difficulty.
During Rahu ruled periods, watch for indigestion and excess bile. Also, this Rahu brings you into association with the downtrodden of society and it makes you mentally sharp. Your son(s), if any, should watch out for snakes and danger while in the country.
Rahu in Lunar Mansion '27 Revati-4'
Ketu in Virgo 27°34'19"
Ketu in Virgo with Scorpio ascendent
When Ketu occupies this sign there is much spirituality. You often become the head of some religious or philosophical organization.
Ketu in 11th House
Ketu gives you the strengths of being learned, well dressed, and attractive. However, you have something in your nature that is not straight, perhaps some unbecoming private attachment that you have yet to overcome. You are considered powerful in society, but you have an unknown fear nagging at your mind. Success and gain come from all sources.
