GRAHANA DOSHA (ECLIPSE AFFLICTION CAUSED BY RAHU & KETU)
Unfavorable Conjunction of the Sun or Moon with Ketu or Rahu Disrupting Progress
Vedic Remedies to Mitigate Affliction and Strengthen Self
What is Grahana Dosha?
In Vedic Astrology, the Grahana Dosha is the most feared Dosha, formed by Rahu and Ketu. A native would have Grahana Dosha if he or she was born during a solar or lunar eclipse.
How Cosmic Alignment Creates Grahana Dosha
Grahan is Sanskrit for the term eclipse. When Rahu or Ketu, shadow planets known as Chaya Grahas, are in close conjunction with the Sun or Moon at the time of your birth, or if you were born during an eclipse, you incur Grahana Dosha. Grahana Dosha will appear in the birth chart of a newborn when in the birth chart of the native (during the Lagna period), the Sun or Moon is in the same house as Rahu or Ketu.
Possible Cosmic Combination that Creates this Dosha:
- Poorna Surya Grahana Dosha- when the Sun and Rahu share a sign
- Poorna Chandra Grahana Dosha- when the Moon and Rahu share a sign
- Partial Surya Grahana Dosha- when the Sun and Ketu share a sign
- Partial Chandra Grahana Dosha- when the Moon and Ketu share a sign
How Grahana Dosha Can Impact You
According to Vedic astrology, when a native is born with Grahana Dosha in the birth chart, they may experience the following adverse effects.
- Delayed marriage
- Conflicts in marriage and unstable relationships
- Challenges during pregnancy
- Losses or failure in business
- Inconsistent career with no growth opportunities
- Uncertain future
- Pressure at the workplace and no peace at home
- Decline in reputation
- Feeling a sense of solitude
- Face frequent health issues
How to Reduce the Impact of Grahana Dosha

AstroVed’s Dosha Remedial Programs
The planets influence our lives by their positions in our natal chart at the time of our birth. Later, they continue to impact our lives when they are in transition. Derived from Sanskrit, Dosha indicates physical disorders. In Vedic Astrology, Doshas occur because of the planets’ unfavorable position in the twelve houses in the birth chart. Malefic planets Mars, Saturn, Rahu, and Ketu, tend to affect the horoscope’s good parts and create Doshas when placed in specific houses. Mars creates maximum Doshas.
