For a Leo Moon, Ketu Mahadasha runs 7 years and the Venus Antardasha is its second sub-period, lasting 1 year 2 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.
Venus rules the 3rd (effort, siblings and courage) and the 10th (career and status) from a Leo Moon. Ruling a kendra gives Venus weight in visible life, and how well it delivers depends on its strength in the chart. Ketu counts Venus as a natural friend, so this sub-period tends to work with the Mahadasha's main theme instead of against it. Ketu has no lordship of its own, so the mix depends on the houses and signs it connects to in your chart.
A Leo Moon tends to want recognition and to lead from the front. Ketu and Venus are both enemies to Sun, the lord of Leo. Ketu-Venus reads as mixed for a Leo Moon: some openings and some effort, with the balance set by your own chart.

Money

What your own chart decides
- Where Venus 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.
