- House 12 (expenses, foreign lands and retreat)

- House 5 (children, intellect and romance), House 6 (work pressure, debts and daily routines)
- How Sun regards Saturn
- Enemy, by natural relationship
For a Virgo Moon, Sun Mahadasha runs 6 years and the Saturn Antardasha is its sixth sub-period, lasting 11 months 12 days. Sun rules the 12th (expenses, foreign lands and retreat) from a Virgo Moon. The 12th house is a house of effort, change or expense, so Sun tends to ask for work and adjustment rather than hand out ease.
Saturn rules the 5th (children, intellect and romance) and the 6th (work pressure, debts and daily routines) from a Virgo Moon. Saturn is a mixed lord: its trikona house tends to support luck, learning and merit, while its 6th house asks for effort and adjustment. Sun regards Saturn 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. Both lords touch dusthana houses, so this stretch tends to feel effortful, and steady work usually pays better than quick moves.
A Virgo Moon tends to analyse, fix details and worry about doing things properly. Sun is neutral to Mercury, the lord of Virgo, and Saturn is a friend to Mercury. Sun-Saturn asks for more effort than ease for a Virgo Moon, so it tends to reward patience, planning and steady work over quick results.

What your own chart decides
- Where Saturn 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.
- The strength of Sun and Saturn 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.
- 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.
