For a Taurus Moon, Saturn Mahadasha runs 19 years and the Sun Antardasha is its fifth sub-period, lasting 11 months 12 days. Saturn rules the 9th (fortune, father and dharma) and the 10th (career and status) from a Taurus Moon. Saturn is the yogakaraka for Taurus Moon, ruling both a kendra and a trikona, which classical texts treat as the marker of a planet that tends to support stability and progress.
Sun rules the 4th (home, mother and peace of mind) from a Taurus Moon. Ruling a kendra gives Sun weight in visible life, and how well it delivers depends on its strength in the chart. Saturn regards Sun 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. A kendra lord paired with a trikona lord is read in classical texts as a supportive link, often called a raja yoga flavour, when the chart agrees.
A Taurus Moon tends to value stability and comfort, and dislikes rushed change. Saturn is a friend to Venus, the lord of Taurus, and Sun is an enemy to Venus. For a Taurus Moon, Saturn-Sun brings a blend of opportunity and effort, and the split between the two depends on placement and transits.

What your own chart decides
- Where Sun 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.
- The strength of Saturn and Sun 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.
- Whether the yogakaraka Saturn is well placed in your chart. A yogakaraka away from the 6th, 8th and 12th and free of heavy affliction tends to deliver the support its lordship promises.
- 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.
