Ketu in Ninth House in Vedic Astrology

Ketu in Ninth House gives a need of the conscious mind "to know" and understand through knowledge and to learn from the people in their environment (neighbors, relatives). The problems they encounter in their environment must be faced with logic and reason. They have been religious in past lifetimes, but in a blind way. They did not question why they were to believe a certain way. Now, they must use their intellect in order to see that there isn't any one religion that is "the" religion. Otherwise, they will continue to pursue the same dogmatic religion from previous lifetimes, believing blindly what they are told to believe. And/or, they should cultivate community involvement and concern, for they cannot escape the problems arising in their environment by moving from community to community.
