What Vedic Astrology Reveals About Mars and Ketu in Leo (November13-25) That Most People Are Missing

Summary

Astrologer Joni Patry discusses the Mars–Ketu conjunction in Leo, which she says lasts from November 13 to November 25. In her Vedic astrology interpretation, both planets are fiery and associated with conflict. Their position near the zodiac’s Gandanta degrees makes the period especially volatile, she says, and Jupiter’s involvement could amplify events.

Patry predicts heightened anger, unrest, violence, and possible shortages or outages. She connects the Leo placement with leaders and politics, and suggests that hidden actions or alleged cheating may come to light. After Ketu moves into Cancer on November 25, she expects further emotional turbulence, with consequences and revelations potentially continuing into March or April.

She frames the upheaval as a painful but ultimately cleansing process that may bring healing, justice, and greater awareness.
