Mulank 7 Grah: Ketu — Lord, Dates & Meaning
मूलांक 7
What does mulank 7 mean?
Mulank 7 belongs to anyone born on the 7th, 16th or 25th of any month. Its ruling graha is Ketu, the south lunar node — a shadow point associated with detachment, inward turning and spiritual inclination, and like Rahu it owns no sign.
The opposite appetite to Rahu
Rahu and Ketu sit exactly opposite each other and are read as opposite impulses. Where Rahu wants what it does not have, Ketu is associated with releasing what it already holds. That is why mulank 7 is described in the tradition as reflective and inward rather than acquisitive — it is Ketu's character, restated for a number.
Read through the dispositor
Owning no sign, Ketu takes its character from the lord of the sign it occupies and from any planet it sits with. Ketu with Jupiter is not the same as Ketu with Mars. As with mulank 4, this makes the number a pointer rather than a description: it tells you which graha to look at, and the chart tells you what state that graha is in.
The limit, stated plainly
Mulank is derived from the day of birth alone — not the month, the year, the time or the place. Everyone born on the same date of any month shares it, which is several million people whose birth charts have nothing else in common. Read this as one input among several, and read the chart for anything that matters.
