Kaal Sarp Dosh

Kaal Sarp dosh (also spelled as Kal Sarp dosh) is an astrological condition in Vedic astrology that occurs when all seven major planets (Sun, Moon, Mars, Mercury, Jupiter, Venus, and Saturn) are positioned between the shadow planets Rahu (North Node) and Ketu (South Node) in a person’s birth chart (kundli).

This yoga is often considered malefic, signifying challenges and obstacles in various aspects of life such as career, health, relationships, and financial stability. It is believed that individuals with Kaal Sarp dosh may experience delays or difficulties in achieving success, and may have to work harder to overcome adversities. However, it’s also said that this yoga can instill determination and spiritual growth, enabling a person to rise above challenges with perseverance.

Key Features of Kaal Sarp dosh:

1. Formation: All planets are positioned between Rahu and Ketu in a birth chart, forming a snake-like pattern, with Rahu as the head and Ketu as the tail.

2. Types: There are different types of Kaal Sarp dosh based on the positions of Rahu and Ketu. Some of the common types include Anant Kaal Sarp dosh, Kulik Kaal Sarp dosh, Vasuki Kaal Sarp dosh, and Shankhpal Kaal Sarp dosh, each associated with specific areas of life.

3. Effects:

   • Delays in success, career growth, or personal achievements.

   • Emotional and psychological stress, fear, or phobias.

   • Family or relationship struggles.

   • Health issues and setbacks.
