Venus Mahadasha Venus Antardasha
Lasts 3 years 4 months
Venus Mahadasha runs 20 years, and its first sub-period is Venus's own, lasting 3 years 4 months. It is calculated as 20 years × 20 years ÷ 120. The natural themes here are relationships, comfort, the arts and vehicles, shown at full strength because both layers are the same planet.
This is Venus's own sub-period inside its own Mahadasha, so the dasha's main themes are concentrated here. This is the first of nine sub-periods in the Venus Mahadasha. As an early sub-period, it tends to set up the themes the rest of the Mahadasha builds on.
Which life areas this sub-period touches depends on your Moon sign, because the houses each planet rules change with it. For Aries Moon, Venus rules the 2nd and 7th houses. For Leo Moon, Venus rules the 3rd and 10th houses. Your own chart, with its placements, aspects and transits, decides how this plays out. Pick your Moon sign below for a version tailored to it.
