Active houses, counted from your Leo Moon
- Saturn (Mahadasha lord) rules
- House 6 (work pressure, debts and daily routines), House 7 (partners, marriage and business partnerships)
- Rahu (Antardasha lord) rules
- None: a shadow planet owns no sign
- How Saturn regards Rahu
- Friend, by natural relationship
For a Leo Moon, Saturn Mahadasha runs 19 years and the Rahu Antardasha is its eighth sub-period, lasting 2 years 10 months 6 days. Saturn rules the 6th (work pressure, debts and daily routines) and the 7th (partners, marriage and business partnerships) from a Leo Moon. Saturn combines a kendra house, which gives it weight in visible life, with a dusthana house (6th) that asks for effort and adjustment.
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. Saturn regards Rahu as a friend, so the sub-period usually supports what the Mahadasha is building. Rahu has no lordship of its own, so the mix depends on the houses and signs it connects to in your chart.
A Leo Moon tends to want recognition and to lead from the front. Saturn and Rahu are both enemies to Sun, the lord of Leo. For a Leo Moon, Saturn-Rahu brings a blend of opportunity and effort, and the split between the two depends on placement and transits.

What your own chart decides
- Where Rahu 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. 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.
