Antardasha 1 of 9 in Mars mahadasha · 4 mo 27 d
Mars-Mars antardasha मंगल-मंगल अंतर्दशा
Mars-Mars opens the mahadasha and lasts about four months and twenty-seven days. It is the most concentrated stretch, when Mars themes arrive undiluted: energy, competition, property, and conflict. Tradition expects decisive action on something long postponed, gains or disputes involving land or siblings, and a sharp rise in physical vitality. Accidents, fevers, and quarrels are the listed cautions. The tone set here tends to persist for the seven years.

The mahadasha behind it
Mars mahadasha is a seven year period that tradition associates with energy, courage, competition, property, and siblings. After the receptive Moon period it feels abrupt and active, with a strong pull toward decisive action. Classical texts read a strong Mars as bringing achievement through effort and gains in land or technical fields, while a weak or afflicted Mars brings disputes, accidents, and conflict with brothers or authority.

What Mars adds as sub-lord
Mars mahadasha is a seven year period that tradition associates with energy, courage, competition, property, and siblings. After the receptive Moon period it feels abrupt and active, with a strong pull toward decisive action. Classical texts read a strong Mars as bringing achievement through effort and gains in land or technical fields, while a weak or afflicted Mars brings disputes, accidents, and conflict with brothers or authority. As an antardasha lord it colours the mahadasha's agenda rather than replacing it: the houses Mars owns and occupies in the birth chart become the stage for Mars's themes for 4 mo 27 d. See Mars as a mahadasha.
How the length is computed
Mars runs 7 years and Mars runs 7 years in the 120-year cycle, so Mars-Mars lasts 7 × 7 ÷ 120 = 0.408 years, about 4 mo 27 d. The exact calendar boundaries depend on the Moon's degree at birth; the free kundli lists them.
