About the Kaal Sarp Dosh calculator

Kaal Sarp Dosh is a popular topic in Vedic astrology. Whether or not it is present, the strength of the individual planets and the rest of the chart matter far more than the label alone.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

What is Kaal Sarp Dosh?

It is a yoga formed when all seven planets are hemmed between Rahu and Ketu. Depending on the axis houses, it takes one of twelve named forms such as Anant or Kulik.

Is Kaal Sarp Dosh always harmful?

Classical opinion is divided, and a partial or 'broken' Kaal Sarp is common. AstroHood treats it as interpretive guidance rather than a fixed judgement.

What are the twelve types?

The twelve types (Anant, Kulik, Vasuki, Shankhpal, Padma, Mahapadma, Takshak, Karkotak, Shankhachur, Ghatak, Vishdhar and Sheshnag) are named by the house of the Rahu–Ketu axis.
