This\nis a continuation of my series on the \u00e2\u0080\u009cpower levels\u00e2\u0080\u009d of the nodes. Readers\ninterested in the attributed values governing the appearance of this graph are\nencouraged to read earlier posts in this series.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Here\u00e2\u0080\u0099s\nthe logic behind the graph: the blue line represents the cumulative energy that\nRahu carries on behalf of planets for whom it can act as a proxy during the\nperiod; the red line represents that of Ketu. The vertical scale reflects\nmagnitude of effect only, with no distinction between benefic vs malefic influence.\nEventually, this \u00e2\u0080\u009cnodal weather report\u00e2\u0080\u009d may evolve into something more nuanced.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Throughout\nMay, Ketu\u00e2\u0080\u0099s power level remains moderate, since Ketu is with Saturn in\nSagittarius (8 points), and receives an aspect only from Mars in Taurus (4\npoints). At a much slower rate (think of it as a background hum), Ketu is in\nJupiter\u00e2\u0080\u0099s sign (2 points). Meanwhile, Ketu is in the Sun\u00e2\u0080\u0099s nakshatra Uttara Ashadha<\/em> until May 9th, and then\nin Venus nakshatra Uttara Ashadha<\/em>\nuntil the end of the month (1 point in either case). Totaled, that makes 15\npoints, except for days when the Moon aspects or associates with Ketu in the\nfirst and second halves of the month, causing the additional \u00e2\u0080\u009cblips\u00e2\u0080\u009d of 4\npoints and 8 points respectively. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

For\nthe first week of May, Rahu\u00e2\u0080\u0099s power level is modest, aspected only by Saturn (4\npoints). Meanwhile, Rahu is in Mercury\u00e2\u0080\u0099s sign (2 points), and Jupiter\u00e2\u0080\u0099s\nnakshatra Punarvasu<\/em> (1 point). That\u00e2\u0080\u0099s\n7 points in total. But on May 7th, Mars enters Gemini to conjoin Rahu (8\npoints), and immediately after that the Moon passes through Gemini to give Rahu\nan additional surge, followed two weeks later by a smaller blip as the Moon\ntransits Sagittarius.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As a general observation, we can say that the nodes exert their greatest collective influence around May 9th and May 22nd, affecting anyone with the ascendant, luminaries or key planets in the area of 25-27 degrees Gemini or Sagittarius. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
