Ketu Mahadasha Sun Antardasha

By Astro Kritesh, Vedic astrologer · Updated

Ketu Mahadasha Sun Antardasha lasts about 4 months in the Vimshottari system. Ketu sets the overall theme (detachment and spirituality and moksha) and Sun colours this sub-period with soul and self-confidence and father. The two planets are enemies, which adds friction.

Duration and calculation

Antardasha length = Mahadasha years x Antardasha years / 120. Here: 7 x 6 / 120 = 0.35 years, i.e. about 4 months.

Likely effects

  • Career: work themes of intuition rise.
  • Relationships: matters of father come into focus.
  • Money: gains follow if Sun rules the 2nd, 9th or 11th house.
  • Health: rest and diet matter more than usual.

What decides the result in your chart

  • Houses owned by Ketu and Sun for your Lagna
  • The house each planet occupies
  • Their mutual position (kendra, trikona, 6-8 or 2-12)
  • Transits of Saturn and Jupiter during these about 4 months

Remedies for this period

  • Chant Om Suryaya Namah 108 times on Sunday.
  • Give charity linked to Sun on Sunday - to someone who genuinely needs it.
  • Gemstone: Ruby (Manik) - only if Sun is a benefic for your Lagna. Never wear it on your own.
  • Keep the habits of the planet: wake early, respect your father and seniors.
