For an Aries Moon, Ketu Mahadasha runs 7 years and the Moon Antardasha is its fourth sub-period, lasting 7 months. Ketu owns no sign, so it acts through the sign it occupies and that sign's lord, which only your own chart shows. Because Ketu has no house of its own here, its results come through detachment, spirituality, research and sudden cuts, coloured by wherever it sits for you.
Moon rules the 4th (home, mother and peace of mind) from an Aries Moon. Ruling a kendra gives Moon weight in visible life, and how well it delivers depends on its strength in the chart. Ketu counts Moon as a natural enemy, so the sub-period can pull in a different direction from the Mahadasha theme and asks for some adjustment. Ketu has no lordship of its own, so the mix depends on the houses and signs it connects to in your chart.
An Aries Moon tends to react quickly and wants visible progress. Ketu is a friend to Mars, the lord of Aries, and Moon is neutral to Mars. Ketu-Moon asks for more effort than ease for an Aries Moon, so it tends to reward patience, planning and steady work over quick results.

Career
Neither lord rules the 10th or 6th from Aries Moon, so career and daily work are shaped more by where Ketu and Moon sit in your chart than by lordship.

Money

What your own chart decides
- Where Moon sits counted from Ketu in your chart. Positions such as the 6th, 8th or 12th from each other usually ask for more adjustment than the 1st, 5th, 9th or 11th, and only your birth chart shows this.
- Where the node sits and who its dispositor is. Ketu has no sign of its own, so the sign, house and ruler it occupies decide most of what this period feels like.
- Your ascendant and the houses these planets actually occupy. This page counts from the Moon, and your lagna can give a different set of lordships, so both views are read together.
- Current transits. Astrika reads natal chart, dasha and transit together, and a period tends to show its results most clearly when all three agree. Remedies, if any, depend on your own chart, so none are listed here.
