Moon Mahadasha Ketu Antardasha

By Astro Kritesh, Vedic astrologer · Updated

Moon Mahadasha Ketu Antardasha lasts about 7 months in the Vimshottari system. Moon sets the overall theme (mind and emotions and mother) and Ketu colours this sub-period with detachment and spirituality and moksha. The two planets are neutral to each other, which gives mixed results.

Duration and calculation

Antardasha length = Mahadasha years x Antardasha years / 120. Here: 10 x 7 / 120 = 0.58 years, i.e. about 7 months.

Likely effects

  • Career: progress depends on how strongly Ketu is placed.
  • Relationships: Ketu's house position decides whether this is a supportive or testing time.
  • Money: steady income if both planets are well placed.
  • Health: keep routines steady; Ketu governs sudden separation.

What decides the result in your chart

  • Houses owned by Moon and Ketu 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 7 months

Remedies for this period

  • Chant Om Ketave Namah 108 times on Tuesday.
  • Give charity linked to Ketu on Tuesday - to someone who genuinely needs it.
  • Gemstone: Cat's Eye (Lehsunia) - only if Ketu is a benefic for your Lagna. Never wear it on your own.
  • Keep the habits of the planet: meditate, serve dogs and the needy, stay humble.
