For a Sagittarius Moon, Rahu Mahadasha runs 18 years and the Mars Antardasha is its ninth sub-period, lasting 1 year 18 days. Rahu owns no sign, so it acts through the sign it occupies and that sign's lord, which only your own chart shows. Because Rahu has no house of its own here, its results come through ambition, foreign links, unconventional paths and obsession, coloured by wherever it sits for you.
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. Rahu regards Mars as an enemy, so there can be friction between the dasha's main theme and this sub-period, which is usually handled with patience and clear priorities. Rahu has no lordship of its own, so the mix depends on the houses and signs it connects to in your chart.
A Sagittarius Moon tends to want freedom, meaning and room to explore. Rahu is neutral to Jupiter, the lord of Sagittarius, and Mars is a friend to Jupiter. For a Sagittarius Moon, Rahu-Mars leans toward effort and adjustment, which usually pays off through consistency rather than speed.

What your own chart decides
- Where Mars sits counted from Rahu 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. Rahu 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.
