- Ketu (Antardasha lord) rules
- None: a shadow planet owns no sign
- How Saturn regards Ketu
- Friend, by natural relationship
For a Sagittarius Moon, Saturn Mahadasha runs 19 years and the Ketu Antardasha is its third sub-period, lasting 1 year 1 month 9 days. Saturn rules the 2nd (family, savings and speech) and the 3rd (effort, siblings and courage) from a Sagittarius Moon. The 3rd house is about initiative and effort, so Saturn tends to reward self-driven action, and its link to the 2nd house also touches savings or gains.
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. Saturn counts Ketu 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 Sagittarius Moon tends to want freedom, meaning and room to explore. Saturn and Ketu are both neutral to Jupiter, the lord of Sagittarius. Saturn-Ketu reads as mixed for a Sagittarius Moon: some openings and some effort, with the balance set by your own chart.

Money
Saturn rules the 2nd from Sagittarius Moon, so savings and income are part of the larger Mahadasha theme, and Ketu influences when it comes to the surface. Saturn sets the tone with disciplined saving and delayed but lasting gains, and Ketu adds detachment from money and occasional sudden shifts in income streams.
Relationships
Neither lord rules the 7th or 5th from Sagittarius Moon, so partnership and romance are shaped more by where Saturn and Ketu sit in your chart than by lordship.

What your own chart decides
- Where Ketu sits counted from Saturn 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.
