When the planet Rahu is negatively placed in the horoscope of a person, it can bring Rahu Dasha and Antardasha in the life of the native. These doshas lead to slow down of growth, love life problems, falls in wealth accumulation, etc. If the position of Rahu in the horoscope is negative, then you can pacify Rahu with the Puranic Rahu mantra.
