A major part of this has been mentioned in the last blog. Please refer to the prologue of What is Saturn Rahu Conjunction in Astrology ? You can also watch our video on YouTube for the same :
Saturn-Ketu conjunction/combination is in the 4th house of the birth chart General characteristics:
The 4th house is the house of mother, motherland, the luxuries of a person’s life, mental peace, heart’s emotion, society norms, the seat of power, the seat of the heart, one’s ancestry, one’s culture
Now the very basic nature of this conjunction of some bohemian kind of nature that this house brings will surely show the traits in the person in every house. The question that comes is how will that be different from the first house in that case as it’s the ascendant only which primarily defines what a person becomes over some time.
Now, the fourth house gets this conjunction of malefic planets. The natural owner of this house is Moon which represents the emotions of a person so this is supposed to be a soft house. The element of this house is Water (Jal tattva). Since the element of mystery is going in the house of the mother and emotions the relationship with one’s mother is affected in some negative manner. Native gets bohemian nature right on the seat of emotions in the horoscope so one would not be interested or motivated by emotional relationships. The conjunctions bohemian effect probably affects this very deeply with this placement and natives are more into seeking solitude and peace which is dried up by the presence of Ketu and a serious Planet like Saturn also doesn’t ease the situation and instead makes it hard for this house.
If the sign is not friendly to the planets then natives can be very serious and have the least possible interest in the property or business. One could leave their mother or motherland in order to find their own peace and stay away from the family’s internal matters.
Now, from the 4th house which shows lungs and chest and Saturn gives its 3rd aspect over the 6th house of diseases, loans, hidden enemies and the daily routine. The result could be natives facing issues due to the mentioned traits like difficulties in paying off loans, getting diseases which are difficult to diagnose properly and enemies working against the native.
As we know that where Ketu is placed it gives a reclusive attitude in that house or one can say the person has already done all that in previous births and the person is supposed to work on the opposite trait of that house. So, Because of Saturn’s aspect on the 6th house, there is a chance of getting involved in litigations. This means one could also become a lawyer as well if the 2nd house and the 9th house are also supportive as the 2nd house of speech and the 9th house of judgement/higher values/morals will motivate the native to make money from the law as well.
Such individuals should not disrespect their mothers and elderly motherly figures for having blessings and support in their profession.
This conjunction makes a native struggle between the realities that Saturn wants to show and the imagination of salvation that Ketu wants to achieve giving rise to mental confusion.
Saturn-Ketu conjunction is in the 4th House of birth chart and career:
Now since the combination is happening in the 4th house it affects the education and emotional quotient of the person and along with that Saturn also aspects the 1st house of one’s self. So, since Saturn is known to give the results as per the work done. In this case, if the person has the desire to earn money then the native has to ensure that no wrong path is taken as in the long run it will not be fruitful. Rahu will make the person more interested in the work front and the person might have a strong want to succeed and be famous in the professional field. It will be difficult for the person to balance the work life and personal life balance. This will make it a difficult mental war for the native with this conjunction.
Native would have to work away from home and that will be more beneficial as Rahu also in the 10th house will promote leaving the home and being in a place where it is visible and shining like the Sun.
This conjunction in 4th will surely give one interest in occult sciences and if Jupiter and Mercury are also involved in this conjunction by aspect or Nakshatra lord exchange then natives can also learn astrology and become good astrologers with good intuition.
Ketu will bring breaks in one’s education being the first house that shows the very initial education.
Ketu is the Kaarak of finer details and cutting so Native might have two different streams of earnings.
Natives can be successful if they start a small business and maintain regularity to achieve the desired growth.

Saturn and Ketu conjunction in the 4th house of birth chart and Marriage /Married life:
This conjunction will affect more if Saturn happens to be the 1st lord or the 7th lord in the horoscope then it would mean that the 1st lord or the 7th lord is directly conjunct with a malefic Ketu which will reduce the marital bliss from the native’s life to a great extent.
Now in case, Saturn is neither the 7th lord nor the ascendant then the effects of the general results could be a little less however if the 7th lord is aspected by this conjunction then there could be some resistance in getting into a marital relationship.
This placement in the 4th house is not affecting the 7th house but the ascendant directly and this will impact the partnership through the native directly as the native would be more serious than the partner.
In case Saturn happens to be the 7th lord then the spouse of the person would not have a very cordial relationship with the native’s mother.
