However, Sun and Moon saw this and signaled to Lord Vishnu who beheaded the demon butunfortunately by then he was immortalized.

From that incident, the head of the body of demon became "Rahu" and torso became "Ketu". The mysteryplanet Rahu is considered bodiless, hence he doesn't know how much he wants something. He always remainsunsatisfied due to his bodiless head. He is always passionate and wants more. It creates obsession withinthe person's mind.
