For a Taurus Moon, Mars Mahadasha runs 7 years and the Venus Antardasha is its seventh sub-period, lasting 1 year 2 months. Mars rules the 7th (partners, marriage and business partnerships) and the 12th (expenses, foreign lands and retreat) from a Taurus Moon. Mars combines a kendra house, which gives it weight in visible life, with a dusthana house (12th) that asks for effort and adjustment.
Venus rules the 1st (self and mind) and the 6th (work pressure, debts and daily routines) from a Taurus Moon. The 1st house is the Moon sign itself and counts as both a kendra and a trikona, so classical texts treat Venus as a supportive lord for a Taurus Moon, even though its 6th house adds some effort and adjustment. Mars treats Venus as a neutral, so the sub-period follows the houses involved more than any natural liking between the planets. Both lords touch dusthana houses, so this stretch tends to feel effortful, and steady work usually pays better than quick moves.
A Taurus Moon tends to value stability and comfort, and dislikes rushed change. Venus is the lord of your Moon sign, which ties this sub-period closely to your mind and sense of self. Mars, the Mahadasha lord, is neutral to Venus. Mars-Venus reads as mixed for a Taurus Moon: some openings and some effort, with the balance set by your own chart.

What your own chart decides
- Where Venus sits counted from Mars 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.
- The strength of Mars and Venus 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.
