When working positively, exalted Ketu placed in the second house of a horoscope can bless the native with good results related to marriage, profession, finances, health and many other types of good results. Accordingly the natives under the effect of this benefic influence may come across some of these good results depending on the overall tone of their horoscopes. Such benefic exalted Ketu can especially prove good for the professional aspect of the native and it can bless the native with success in a number of professional spheres depending on his overall horoscope. Such benefic influence in the second house of a horoscope can also render a post of power and authority to some natives under its influence due to which such natives may achieve such power and authority through jobs or through politics.

For example, if benefic exalted Ketu is placed in the second house of a horoscope in the sign of Scorpio, Rahu is in the eighth house in the sign of Taurus along with benefic Mars; and a benefic combination of Sun and debilitated Mercury is placed in the sixth house of this horoscope in the sign of Pisces, the native may become a revenue or taxation officer. The native under the combined effect of these benefic planets may get selected for a post of authority in revenue or taxation department of government and he may achieve good amount of success and recognition through this field of profession. At the same time, if benefic Saturn is placed in the fourth house of this horoscope in the sign of Capricorn and benefic exalted Venus is placed in the sixth house of this horoscope in the sign of Pisces along with benefic Sun and benefic debilitated Mercury, the equation may become much more positive. The native blessed by such benefic exalted Ketu, exalted Venus and all other benefic planets may get selected for the highest possible direct rank in revenue services by means of success in some competitive exams for selection in revenue services and he may achieve very good amount of success and recognition through this field of profession.

This is due to the fact that benefic exalted Venus placed in the sixth house of this horoscope may cancel the debilitation status of benefic Mercury placed in the sixth house of this horoscope in the sign of Pisces and Neechbhang Rajyoga may be formed in the horoscope. According to its definition, if a benefic debilitated planet is joined by a benefic planet which is either the lord of its sign of debilitation or which gets exalted in its sign of debilitation, the debilitation status of this planet may get cancelled and Neechbhang Rajyoga may be formed in the horoscope, which may bless the native with very good results in some spheres of his life. In the present case, benefic debilitated Mercury is present in the sixth house of this horoscope in the sign of Pisces along with benefic Venus which gets exalted in the sign of Pisces. Hence such benefic exalted Venus may cancel the debilitation status of Mercury and these two planets may form Neechbhang Rajyoga in the horoscope of this native.

Since the overall tone of this horoscope is indicating some type of authority in the house of government through some job related to revenue or taxation, such Neechbhang Rajyoga may bless the native with very good results in this field of profession. Hence the native under the effect of such benefic exalted Ketu, exalted Venus, debilitated Mercury and all other benefic planets mentioned in this example may get selected for the highest possible direct rank in revenue services and he may achieve very good amount of success and recognition through this field of profession. As more benefic influences add to this horoscope, the native blessed by such benefic exalted Ketu and all other benefic influences may achieve even better results through this field of profession. For example, the presence of benefic exalted Jupiter in the tenth house of this horoscope in the sign of Cancer can bless the native with some very important and authoritative deputations during his career. Similarly the presence of benefic Moon in the fifth house of this horoscope in the sign of Aquarius can bless the native with even better success and recognition as a revenue officer.

Benefic exalted Ketu placed in the second house of a horoscope can also take some natives to foreign lands and it can get them settled there permanently if the overall horoscopes of these natives are supportive. For example, if benefic exalted Ketu is placed in the second house of a horoscope in the sign of Scorpio, Rahu is in the eighth house in the sign of Taurus and a benefic combination of Moon and Saturn is placed in the twelfth house of this horoscope in the sign of Virgo, the native may go abroad. Such native may go abroad on the basis of his profession, he may earn good amount of success and money in such foreign country and he may get settled in such foreign country permanently on the basis of his profession, if his overall horoscope is supportive. For example, if benefic Jupiter is placed in the second house of this horoscope in the sign of Scorpio along with benefic exalted Ketu when all other benefic planets are placed in the already mentioned houses of this horoscope, the native may settle in a foreign country on the basis of his profession.

However if a combination of Jupiter and Mars is placed in the sixth house of this horoscope in the sign of Pisces instead of the placement of Jupiter in the second house along with benefic exalted Ketu, the results may change. The native under the combined effect of all these benefic planets may go to a foreign country on the basis of his profession, he may work there for some years and he may then come back and settle in his own country. Continuing with the first combination, the presence of benefic Jupiter with benefic exalted Ketu in the second house of this horoscope can bless the native with permanent settlement in a foreign country on the basis of his profession.

The combined effect of all these benefic planets can also bless the native with very good amount of success and a very good financial status in such foreign country. As more benefic influences add to this horoscope, the native may achieve even better results related to his foreign settlement. For example, the presence of a benefic combination of Venus and Mars in the ninth house of this horoscope in the sign of Gemini can bless the native with even more benefits through his foreign settlement. The native under the combined effect of such benefic exalted Ketu and all other benefic planets mentioned in this example may get married to a well established as well as a beautiful girl from the same foreign country and he may benefit through such marriage also.

On the other hand, malefic exalted Ketu placed in the second house of a horoscope can trouble the native under its influence with problems related to marriage, profession, finances, health and many other types of problems. Accordingly the natives under the effect of this malefic influence may have to face some of these problems depending on the overall tone of their horoscopes. Such problems may intensify if such malefic exalted Ketu in the second house forms Pitra Dosh in a horoscope along with malefic exalted Rahu in the eighth house of that horoscope. The defect so formed is called Karkotak Kaal Sarp Yog and it can trouble the native with problems related to marriage, profession and health. Some natives under the effect of this defect may not get married till late in their lives and their marriages may get delayed on account of one reason or the other.

Some other natives suffering from such Kaal Sarp Yog may have to face many problems and disturbances in their marriages and some of them may also have to face broken marriages. In an extreme case when supported by a marriage breaking defect like Manglik Dosh, such Kaal Sarp Yog can break more than one marriage of the native under its influence after making him suffer from many problems through such marriages. Malefic exalted Ketu in the second house of a horoscope can also trouble the native with problems in the field of his profession due to which some natives under its impact may not be able to find permanent professions or jobs till late in their lives. Some other natives of this type may not find well paying jobs and they may have to work for low paying jobs till late in their lives or throughout their lives. In an extreme case when supported by some other malefic influences in a horoscope, malefic exalted Ketu in the second house can make the native engage in very low paying jobs throughout his life or it may keep him jobless for many year of his life.

Apart from this, malefic exalted Ketu in the second house of a horoscope can also trouble the native with health problems and diseases of various types due to which some natives under its impact may have to suffer from various types of diseases and health problems. Such malefic influence can also bend the native towards consuming some unhealthy foods or towards using alcohol or some other harmful substances in heavy quantities due to which these natives may invite many health problems. The natives suffering from such malefic exalted Ketu may have a tendency to suffer from health problems and diseases after their age of 41 primarily due to their bad eating routines or due to their indulgence in excessive consumption of alcohol, tobacco or some other such harmful substances. In extreme cases when supported by other malefic influences in a horoscope, malefic exalted Ketu in the second house of a horoscope can afflict the native with some serious or even with some life threatening disease which may cause some serious damage to the native or which may claim his life between his age of 41 to 50.
