What if Ketu is in 3rd house for Libra Ascendant? (Vedic Astrology)
Ketu will fall in the sign of Sagittarius when placed in the 3rd house for a Libra Ascendant. There are several possibilities with this placement and here are some of them.
1) Ketu is a planet of change or transformation and so it will bring a lot of change in your communication when placed in the 3rd house of communication. For example, if you are a businessman then you could talk to different people throughout the day and here you are changing people to talk. Suppose you supply rice or any other commodity in some other state of India then you would talk to different transporters or couriers in order to confirm the transportation and logistics rates for your goods. So here the planet Ketu is bringing a change in your communication as Ketu is the natural significator of the 8th house of change or transformation. Also, Sagittarius is a sign that represents transportation & logistics.
2) 3rd house is also the house of travel or short-distance journeys and now when Ketu is placed in the sign of Sagittarius in the 3rd house then it could bring a lot of up and down in travel as your daily routine as Ketu is a planet of up and down as Ketu is the co-ruler of 8th house along with Mars and 8th house is the house of change or up and down. Since Sagittarius is a sign of long-distance journeys so long-distance journeys could be your regular travel such as changing train or bus to travel from one place to another place in the same city or one village to another village and so on.
Also, when Ketu is placed in the sign of Sagittarius in the 3rd house then Rahu falls in the 9th house in the sign of Gemini and so the native gets obsessed about travel in long-distance journeys as Rahu is a planet of obsession and 9th house is the house of long-distance journeys. If the ascendant lord Venus and the 9th lord Mercury are placed in the 12th house of foreign countries then with this placement the native could also settle in a foreign country or there could be a lot of up and down in a foreign country.
If Jupiter is also placed in the 1st house, 5th house, or 9th house then the native could also travel to a foreign country for his/her higher education and this could happen in Jupiter Mahadasa or Anterdasa. In Jupiter dasa people often move to foreign countries as Jupiter rules the sign of Pisces which is a sign of foreign countries. Long-distance vehicle drivers such as truck drivers and taxi drivers often have this placement of Ketu in the 3rd house in the sign of Sagittarius as they make a lot of change (or up and down) in travel every day.
3) If the 3rd lord Jupiter is your Darakarka (DK) then you could also change your partner a lot for sexual relationships as the 3rd house is also the house of mating and also Ketu aspects the 7th house of relationships when placed in the 3rd house. That is the reason Ketu is considered debilitated in the 3rd house as it may result in multiple relationships but it is exalted in the sign of Sagittarius and so here Ketu could be good and bad both. But this is not always so that Ketu will give multiple relationships in the 3rd house.
4) You might have seen the news reporters and journalists who have to travel a lot in order to report the news to the news agency and such kind of people may also have this placement of Ketu in the sign of Sagittarius in the 3rd house as they make a lot of change in their travel as their daily work routine.
5) If Ketu is placed in the sign of Sagittarius in the 3rd house but if the 3rd lord Jupiter is placed in the sign of Scorpio in the 2nd house then with this placement the native could become a criminal investigator as Scorpio is a sign of investigation and Ketu is also a planet of going to the roots of something and when you investigate a murder or robbery or theft or fraud then you go to the roots to find the truth as Sagittarius is also a sign of finding the truth. For this kind of investigation, you also need to travel a lot to different places and so Ketu in the 3rd house makes sense. People who deal with the dead bodies such as the forensic experts may also have this placement as Ketu represents the dead bodies.
Also, the 3rd house is also the house of death as the 3rd house is the 8th from the 8th house of death and so the 3rd house is the higher self of the 8th house. People involved in the teaching of the subject of Anatomy may also have this placement as dead bodies are used to teach medical students about the structure of the human body.
6) If Ketu is placed in the sign of Sagittarius in the 3rd house but if the 3rd lord Jupiter is placed in the sign of Libra in the 1st house then people working in the field of law, justice, conflict resolution, and human rights are generally seen from this placement as a Libra is a sign of bringing peace and harmony and balancing the two opponents who are against each other. IPS and IAS officers may also have this placement. Here > Ketu in the sign of Sagittarius < means going to the roots of law as Sagittarius is also a sign of law. But Libra is also a sign of design and architecture and so people with this placement can also move in these fields also especially if Saturn is also placed in the 1st house in the sign of Libra.
7) If Ketu is placed in the sign of Sagittarius in the 3rd house but if the 3rd lord Jupiter is placed in the sign of Virgo in the 12th house then health care professionals and health care insurance providers and work injury lawyers are generally seen from this placement as Virgo is a sign of injuries and health care and Ketu is a planet of inheritance and death.
That is the reason, Ketu in the sign of Sagittarius is quite good to get an inheritance or some kind of unearned wealth in life such as getting wealth from insurance and luck (such as gambling). This is because Sagittarius is a sign of luck. If Jupiter is Bhatrikarka (BK) then it can also give inheritance from the father.

People doing research in health care and dead bodies may also have this placement as Ketu is also a planet of research. But if Ketu is in MB then you may even lose wealth in inheritance.
8) If Ketu is placed in the sign of Sagittarius in the 3rd house but if the 3rd lord Jupiter is placed in the sign of Leo in the 11th house then people like cinematographers are generally seen from this placement. They may be engaged in photo editing, photography, film shooting, film editing, video editing, and other technical aspects of the world of media. Such natives can also get an inheritance from their fathers. People like video game developers, cartoon filmmakers, digital designers, financial tools developers, web developers, developers of communication systems, developers of musical systems, etc can also be seen from this placement.
9) If Ketu is placed in the sign of Sagittarius in the 3rd house but if the 3rd lord Jupiter is placed in the sign of Cancer in the 10th house then manufacturers and marketers of furniture, food, clothing, and vehicles are generally seen from this placement as 10th house is the house of manufacturing. People who are into food storage, transportation, logistics, and courier can also be seen from this placement. Many people make money by giving their godowns or storage systems or garage on rent and they can also be seen from this placement.
10) If Ketu is placed in the sign of Sagittarius in the 3rd house but if the 3rd lord Jupiter is placed in the sign of Gemini in the 9th house then people taking care of their printing and publishing business are generally seen from this placement such as the book publishing and the printing and publishing of various religious and promotional products such as all types of cards, calendars, copies, posters, diaries, pen, pencils, etc. People working with printers, scanners, and photocopiers, and ink cartridges and printing sheets can also be seen from this placement. People working with stamps and office stationery can also be seen from this placement as Gemini is a sign that represents all the printing and stationery items. Also, people working in the travel and tourism industry may also have this placement.
11) If Ketu is placed in the sign of Sagittarius in the 3rd house but if the 3rd lord Jupiter is placed in the sign of Taurus in the 8th house then fruit juice makers, sugarcane juice makers, fruit and vegetable sellers, pickle sellers, ice-cream sellers, food manufacturers, commodity traders, food grain traders, toymakers, wooden basket makers, decoration items sellers, wooden products sellers, beds and mattresses sellers, clothing sellers, garments and hosiery clothing sellers, etc are generally seen from this placement.
12) If Ketu is placed in the sign of Sagittarius in the 3rd house but if the 3rd lord Jupiter is placed in the sign of Aries in the 7th house then all kinds of vehicle drivers such as construction vehicle drivers, trolley drivers, taxi drivers, auto-rickshaw drivers, bicycle drivers, tractor drivers, etc are generally seen from this placement. This is because Aries is a sign of motion and so it makes you move when Jupiter is placed in the sign of Aries.
13) If Ketu is placed in the sign of Sagittarius in the 3rd house but if the 3rd lord Jupiter is placed in the sign of Pisces in the 6th house then people working in the marine and shipping industries are generally seen from this placement.
