Planets in Astrology
According to science "Planet is a celestial body that is in orbit around the sun, has sufficient mass for its self-gravity to overcome rigid body force so that it assumes a hydrostatic equilibrium shape, and has cleared the neighborhood around it. There are nine planets i.e The Sun, Moon, Mars, Mercury, Jupiter, Venus, Saturn, Rahu, and Ketu. In astrology, planets are considered deities, having their own will and power. These planets are known as NAVGRAHS in Vedic Astrology along with shadow planets RAHU and Ketu. Jupiter, Kiranbali chanderma, and Venus are benefic or auspicious planets. The Sun, Mars, Saturn, Rahu, and Ketu are malefic planets. Mercury is neutral. In Vedic astrology, The sun represents the soul, Moon-Mother, and maan, Mercury-communication, and intelligence, Venus-planet of love, luxury, and money, Saturn- Karma, Jupiter-luck and marriage, and Mars-passion, war, courage, and younger brother and sister. They influence human life. They affect our personalities and nature. In astrology, planets help us to understand general and specific human behavior through the influence of planets and celestial objects. Kundli is divided into 12 parts that are called Bhav/houses. Bhav/houses are fixed only on planets and zodiac signs keep on changing. Plnets give different results according to their placement in different houses and Zodiac signs. Some planets give auspicious results in different Bhav/Houses and some planets give inauspicious results according to their nature, relationship, placement, and influence

Saturn
Among all the planets Saturn is considered an inauspicious planet. According to me, Saturn is not an inauspicious planet because Shani Dev/Saturn is dharmraj/ lord of justice and pays off karma. When Saturn comes as Sadesati, Dhaiya or in Dasha, and Anterdasha, Saturn gives results to a person according to their karma, and most of the time that time period is difficult. And we as a people think that whenever Saturn comes to give trouble, actually we are paying our bad karmas. The planet which has got the title of Dharmaraja, Karamphaldata how can it be inauspicious?

There are twelve houses in the horoscope and there are nine planets. The planets can be in any house in the horoscope. What kind of results will be given by the planet depends on its nature, placement, and relation with that bhav/house, or which side of life that house is related to. It is known that some planets are auspicious, that is, wherever they are placed, they will increase the Karak tatva of that house and some inauspicious planets spoil the Karak tatva/elements of that house. That's why first of all see what effect each planet shows on different houses. First, we will take the Saturn.
Rahu and Ketu
Rahu
Rahu is the head of Asura Swarbhanu whom Lord Vishnu killed while giving nectar to the deities in the form of Mohini. Rahu is a shadow and a devil planet in astrology.

It is exalted in Gemini at 15 degrees and debilitated in Sagittarius at 15 degrees. It has three aspects/Drishti the 5th, 7th, and 9th.
