- How Venus regards Ketu
- Friend, by natural relationship
For a Sagittarius Moon, Venus Mahadasha runs 20 years and the Ketu Antardasha is its ninth sub-period, lasting 1 year 2 months. Venus rules the 6th (work pressure, debts and daily routines) and the 11th (gains and network) from a Sagittarius Moon. The 6th house is a house of effort, change or expense, so Venus tends to ask for work and adjustment rather than hand out ease, and its link to the 11th 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. Venus 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. Venus and Ketu are both neutral to Jupiter, the lord of Sagittarius. Venus-Ketu reads as mixed for a Sagittarius Moon: some openings and some effort, with the balance set by your own chart.

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