For a Sagittarius Moon, Mars Mahadasha runs 7 years and the Mars Antardasha is its first sub-period (the dasha lord's own), lasting 4 months 27 days. Mars rules the 5th (children, intellect and romance) and the 12th (expenses, foreign lands and retreat) from a Sagittarius Moon. Mars is a mixed lord: its trikona house tends to support luck, learning and merit, while its 12th house asks for effort and adjustment.
Both layers are Mars, so the same houses and the same natural themes (energy, property, siblings and drive) are emphasised twice over.
A Sagittarius Moon tends to want freedom, meaning and room to explore. Mars is a friend to Jupiter, the lord of Sagittarius. Mars-Mars reads as mixed for a Sagittarius Moon: some openings and some effort, with the balance set by your own chart.

What your own chart decides
- The strength of Mars in your chart: its sign (own, exalted, friendly or debilitated), conjunctions and aspects decide whether the sub-period delivers smoothly or slowly.
- The strength of Mars in your chart: sign dignity, conjunctions and aspects. A well-placed lord tends to deliver its houses cleanly, while a weak one gives slower or uneven results.
- 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.
