How do you know if you need the Ketu yantra? If you're dedicated to or experiencing personal, internal growth or healing in any way, this mandala is the one for you. In fact, the ketu yantra has a yin, meditative energy, so, if you have one, this mandala is perfect for a meditation space!

Ketu is the south node of the moon, which relates directly to spirituality, healing and introspection, and many of the green shades represented in this mandala are associated with the New Beginnings bagua area. The darker shades, however, are related to the Knowledge gua, which represents self-cultivation, skillfulness and spirituality. This means the Ketu yantra can help you with either set of needs, depending on where you place it.

If you're focused on a fresh start or on healing, find the New Beginnings area in your space, and place the Ketu yantra there. For support on your spiritual path, place the mandala in your Knowledge gua instead.

The Ketu yantra depicts earthy deep olives and muted green tones with touches of silver. The Vedic mandala background is based on the number seven Vedic square. The associated mantra is:

Om Kaim Ketave Namah Om

Ketu is the south node of the moon and is associated spirituality, healing and introspection. Because eclipses occur in association with the nodes of the moon, Ketu is related to shadows and more yin compared to the north node, Rahu. The greens relate to the New Beginnings area of the feng shui bagua map. New beginnings and greens are deeply healing. The darker earthy tones connect with the area of Knowledge which are related to self-cultivation, skillfulness and spirituality. The yin aspect of this yantra indicates inner focused meditative growth.

As a Feng Shui adjustment, the Ketu yantra may be placed in the New Beginnings area of your home, bedroom or office for assistance with healing and fresh starts, especially where internal growth is concerned. Alternatively, if you are locating this for spirituality and self-cultivation, it would be better located in the Knowledge area of your bedroom. There the yantra will support your spiritual path. In Vedic Vastu tradition, you can locate this on your north-eastern wall.
