For a Virgo 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 2nd (family, savings and speech) and the 9th (fortune, father and dharma) from a Virgo Moon. Ruling a trikona makes Venus a natural supporter of luck, learning and merit for this Moon sign, and its link to the 2nd house also touches savings or gains. 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 Virgo Moon tends to analyse, fix details and worry about doing things properly. Ketu is neutral to Mercury, the lord of Virgo, and Venus is a friend to Mercury. For a Virgo Moon, Ketu-Venus leans supportive on paper, with the caveat that strength, aspects and transits in your own chart decide how much of that shows up.

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.
