Active houses, counted from your Scorpio Moon
- Sun (Mahadasha lord) rules
- House 10 (career and status)
- Rahu (Antardasha lord) rules
- None: a shadow planet owns no sign
- How Sun regards Rahu
- Enemy, by natural relationship
For a Scorpio Moon, Sun Mahadasha runs 6 years and the Rahu Antardasha is its fourth sub-period, lasting 10 months 24 days. Sun rules the 10th (career and status) from a Scorpio Moon. Ruling a kendra gives Sun weight in visible life, and how well it delivers depends on its strength in the chart.
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. Sun counts Rahu as a natural enemy, so the sub-period can pull in a different direction from the Mahadasha theme and asks for some adjustment. Rahu has no lordship of its own, so the mix depends on the houses and signs it connects to in your chart.
A Scorpio Moon tends to feel intensely and keep real thoughts private. Sun is a friend to Mars, the lord of Scorpio, and Rahu is an enemy to Mars. For a Scorpio Moon, Sun-Rahu leans toward effort and adjustment, which usually pays off through consistency rather than speed.

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