Ketu Mahadasha in Vedic Astrology.........
Ketu is a spiritual planet which is opposite to materialistic effects. A person running benefic Ketu Maha Dasa can enjoy benefits of wealth as well as spritual knowledge. They will be interested in doing activtities charity organization, temples, etc.
Ketu is capable of completely satisfying or removing the interest on the house it occupies.This is one of the reason people do fear of Ketu when it occupies 7th house.
