Jupiter Mahadasha Moon Antardasha
Lasts 1 year 4 months
Jupiter Mahadasha sets the main subject for 16 years, and the Moon Antardasha colours it for 1 year 4 months. Jupiter stands for wisdom, children, teachers and expansion. Moon stands for mind, mother, public life and emotional security. The combination tends to bring those two sets of themes together.
Jupiter counts Moon as a natural friend, so this sub-period tends to work with the Mahadasha's main theme instead of against it. This is the seventh of nine sub-periods in the Jupiter Mahadasha. As a late sub-period, it tends to consolidate what the Mahadasha has built and prepare the ground for the next dasha.
Which life areas this sub-period touches depends on your Moon sign, because the houses each planet rules change with it. For Aries Moon, Jupiter rules the 9th and 12th houses and Moon rules the 4th house. For Leo Moon, Jupiter rules the 5th and 8th houses and Moon rules the 12th house. Your own chart, with its placements, aspects and transits, decides how this plays out. Pick your Moon sign below for a version tailored to it.
