The conjunction of Rahu and Saturn in any of the houses in a horoscope forms the Shani Rahu Shrapit Dosha. Due to this dreaded dosha, the native finds it difficult to enjoy life’s luxuries and comforts. The cause of this dosha is the bad karma (misdeeds or actions) of past lives and if some measures aren’t taken by the native to deal with the ill-effects of this, it can even continue from generation to generation. Some astrologers also consider it to be Shani Rahu Shrapit Dosha when Saturn and Rahu aspect each other. Though the combination of Rahu and Saturn can make a person achieve success in activities related to the technology sector but at the same time, it may extend bad luck to the native due to which he/she may not be able to enjoy success. The presence of this dosha has the ability to nullify the positive effects of the other auspicious planetary aspects in one’s horoscope.
Due to this dosha, there may be chances of divorce, death of a partner despite matching of the couple’s horoscopes. Child in the family may fall sick frequently, the couple may have problems conceiving. There could be quarrels and disharmony in the family and problems on the education and career front.
