Antardasha 9 of 9 in Mars mahadasha · 7 mo
Mars-Moon antardasha मंगल-चंद्र अंतर्दशा
Mars-Moon lasts seven months and closes the mahadasha. Mars counts the Moon as a friend, and the Moon is neutral toward Mars, so the relationship is warm from one side. Tradition expects a return of domestic focus after years of striving: home, mother, and emotional life come forward, sometimes with property matters or a change of residence. Moods run hot and quick. It hands over to the long Rahu mahadasha.

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 Moon adds as sub-lord
Moon mahadasha is a ten year period that tradition associates with the mind, the mother, home, the public, and emotional life. After the sharp Sun period it feels softer and more receptive, with attention shifting from position to well-being. Classical texts read a strong Moon as bringing popularity, domestic happiness, and travel, while a weak Moon brings restlessness, anxiety, and instability of residence. As an antardasha lord it colours the mahadasha's agenda rather than replacing it: the houses Moon owns and occupies in the birth chart become the stage for Mars's themes for 7 mo. See Moon as a mahadasha.
How the length is computed
Mars runs 7 years and Moon runs 10 years in the 120-year cycle, so Mars-Moon lasts 7 × 10 ÷ 120 = 0.583 years, about 7 mo. The exact calendar boundaries depend on the Moon's degree at birth; the free kundli lists them.
