9.Keezha Perumpallam –Temple for Ketu (Dragon’s tail)
Lord Ketu saves you from confusion, litigation and  scandal. If he is not properly placed in a horoscope his major period of 7 years  will be full of torture and Ketu  will do more harm than the Saturn that will run for 19 years. He does it by inducing people to do mistakes in life and learn from the experience. He is like a teacher and we must never think his punishments as a wrong doing as his intention is that we learn lessons. Many people become like a “Sanyasi” during his dasa or Bukthi but when the period is completed they tend to lead a better life and that depends up on the nature of Mercury in your horoscope. Ketu temple is near Kumbakonam and Mayavaram in Tamil Nadu.
