Ketu Puja should be performed to pacify the malefic effects of Ketu and to cleanse deep-rooted karmic imbalances carried from past lives. In Vedic astrology, Ketu represents detachment, liberation, hidden knowledge, spiritual awakening, and sudden separation. When Ketu is weak or afflicted in the birth chart, it can cause confusion, lack of direction, unexpected losses, isolation, fear, and recurring failures without logical explanation.

Performing Ketu Puja helps calm these shadow influences and restores mental stability and clarity. This puja reduces anxiety, removes negative thought patterns, and strengthens spiritual understanding. It is especially recommended during Ketu Mahadasha or Antardasha, Kaalsarp Dosha, or when one feels disconnected, lost, or blocked despite sincere efforts. Ketu Puja supports inner growth, protects from unseen negativity, and brings peace, acceptance, and wisdom.
