Kal Sarp Dosh

Kaalsarp Dosh in astrology is considered as one of the most concerning doshas. According to astrology, Kaalsarp dosh is a result of one's past deeds or karma.

The presence of this dosh in your kundli may create hurdles and delays across different aspects of your life such as career, love, marriage, health and more.

The Kaalsarp dosh is formed when Rahu and Ketu are present on one side in the horoscope and all other planets are in their midst. As per astrology, there are seven main planets (excluding Rahu and Ketu), each of them ruling various aspects such as Lagna, wealth, happiness, children, disease, household, age, fortune, karma, profit, love, expenditure, etc.

As Kaalsarp dosh veils the planets, the aspects they represent may get hampered, which may lead to problems in the life of the native. In astrology, there are as many as 12 Kaalsarp doshas. Each of these forms as per the placement of Rahu and Ketu in the native's chart.

12 Types of Kal Sarp Dosh 

Anant Kaalsarp Dosh
The Anant Kaalsarp dosh is formed in the native's chart when the planet Rahu is present in the lagna or the first house of the Kundli, and Ketu is present in the 7th house. In this way, all the remaining planets come in between the two shadow planets. When the native has this dosh in his Kundli, he will have to struggle for longer to find success. Although you will work very hard in order to succeed, but the results will come to you after a delay. The Anant Kaalsarp dosh will likely test your patience by introducing you to constant obstacles and challenges. Due to this dosha, a person faces problems in all aspects of their lives, but if you don't lose hope, you will find success later. Also, don't indulge in ill deeds such as gambling, lust, etc
Kulik Kaalsarp Dosh
The Kulik Kaalsarp dosh is formed when Rahu is placed in the 2nd house and Ketu is in the 8th house of the native's kundli. This dosha is believed to bring economic losses, humiliation, debt and various other obstacles in the native's life. Hence astrologers suggest that you don't form bondings with people without careful scrutiny. If you are into business, make sure you do it with 100% honesty, especially during the Kulik dosh period. When it comes to married life, it is to remain normal for the native dealing with Kalik dosh. You, however, may feel that you are getting old before time, thus you must invest in taking care of your health. Do not use intoxicants such as cigarettes, tobacco, etc.
Vasuki Kaalsarp Dosh
The Vasuki Kaalsarp dosh is formed when Rahu is placed in the 3rd house in the native's chart and Ketu, on the other hand, sits in the 9th place. This dosha doesn't only hamper the life of the native but also of the ones related to him, such as his siblings, parents, spouse, etc. You have to face the fact that your family members may cheat on you. There will likely be a lack of peace in the family, and the peace will further shatter with inflating economic problems as the Vasuki Kaalsarp dosh continues. However, the good thing is that the person will have economic success as he continues to put in the hard work in making sure things work out for him.
Shankhapal Kaalsarp Dosh
The Shankphal Kaalsarp dosh is formed in the native's Kundli when the planet Rahu is placed in the 4th house of the Kundli and the planet Ketu sits in the 10th house. The formation of this yoga in kundli is the signal of incoming financial hardship, disease and disorder in the native's life. Hence, he/she should prepare for it. During this period, the happiness in the native's family will plunge to new lows. This may further hamper elements such as love, child's education, etc. If a youngster, the native will find it tough to make the right choices, due to which he or she may find it difficult to settle early in life. The people of this yoga have to face difficulties related to land and property, thus any such deals must be done after proper scrutiny.
Padam Kaalsarp Dosh
The Padam Kaalsarp dosh is formed when Rahu is placed in the 5th house and Ketu is in the 11th house of the kundli. This dosh is especially harmful to students as they may lose concentration in studies and indulge in detrimental deeds. Hence, parents must keep an eye on their children during this period. You also need to ensure you help your child make the right choices in education or it will simply cost you and him a loss of money and time. For grown-ups, the dosh may hamper your progress in your career. If you are looking for new opportunities or taking risks, you must do it with a partner. Also, health should be a priority as the Padam Kaalsarp dosh progresses.
Mahapadma Kaalsarp Dosh
The Mahapadma Kaalsarp dosh is formed when the planet Rahu is placed in the 6th house of the Kundli and Ketu is placed in the 12th house. Although Kaalsarp doshas are known for their ill consequences, but when Mahapadma Kaalsarp dosh is active, the native finds himself the luck to win over all his enemies with ease. There is an enhancement in wisdom and a thrust of will to do something worthwhile and big in life. However, as the dosh period continues, the native tends to lose peace of mind and may make thoughtless choices. In the dosh period, the person earns profit from business from abroad.
Takshak Kaalsarp Dosh
The Takshak Kaalsarp dosh is formed when Rahu is placed in the 7th house of the Kundli and Ketu is in the lagan or the 1st house. If this dosh is active in the life of the native, he or she may have to face a delay in marriage. The marriage delay may become the reason for tension and stress for your parents too. If married, there may be disturbances due to the nature of the in-laws. There may also arise situations when you might think of divorce. Also, the ones dealing with Kaalsarp dosh must not consider love marriage during the dosh period. Doing so will hamper the love you share after marriage, and you will have to put extra effort to make things work.
Karkotak Kaalsarp dosh
The Karkotak Kaalsarp dosh is formed when Ketu is placed in the 2nd house of the native's Kundli and Rahu is placed in the 8th house. The Karkotak Kaalsarp dosh is responsible for causing hindrance in acquiring a fortune. The dosh may also hamper career progress as you may witness several hindrances in acquiring a job and getting a well-deserved promotion. People dealing with Karkotak Kaalsarp dosh also acquire the habit of speaking the truth. This may seem like a good thing, but this habit may bar the native from acquiring good deals for himself. This doesn't mean that you shouldn't speak the truth, but you must surely think before speaking to anyone.
Shankhachur Kaalsarp Dosh
The Shankhachur Kaalsarp dosh is formed when the planet Rahu is placed in the 6th house and Ketu, on the other hand, occupies the 12th house of the Kundli. The good thing about this dosh is that the desires of people born in this dosh are usually fulfilled. However, the bad thing is that there may be a delay in fulfilling such desires, which may leave you frustrated. In the family and home of the native dealing with Shankhachur Kaalsarp dosh, there may be a lot of pain and suffering. In this period, it is suggested that you focus on your family and don't indulge in dealings that you will have to regret in the near future.
Ghatak Kaalsarp Dosh 
The Ghatak Kaalsarp dosh is formed in Kundli when Rahu is placed in the 10th house and Ketu sits in the 4th house of the native's kundli. When you have this dosha in kundli, it is highly recommended that you serve your mother, take care of her and never cause her any harm. This will help in bettering your life conditions. However, it has been noticed that in return, you may not get the same kind of affection from your mother. Due to Ghatak Kaalsarp dosh, the person becomes arrogant even if he or she does not have anything to be proud of. Your ego is at the top of your head, which may hamper not only your personal but your professional bondings too
Vishdhar Kaalsarp Dosh
The Vishdhar Kaalsarp dosh is formed when planet Rahu is in the 11th house and Ketu, on the other hand, sits in the 5th house. This dosha is fatal for the one trying to acquire education, especially higher education. There will be a lot of obstacles for such a person to get higher education. However, despite all odds, their patience and commitment will help them in moving forward. These people do better in their professional life if they pursue their career from abroad than from their own country. Their fortune trends in foreign countries. In the family, the person has to suffer from property loss even after the possibility of benefiting from grandparents.
Sheshnag Kaalsarp Dosh
The Sheshnag Kaal Sarp dosh is formed when the Rahu is present in the 12th house of the Kundli and the Ketu planet sits in the 6th house. The desires of the people born in this Sheshnag Kaalsarp Yog are always fulfilled, however, with a slight delay. The native under the presence of this dosh may develop a habit of spending more than his income. This is why he may usually find himself indebted. After 42 years of age, there is a time in his life when he may find himself a prestigious place in society. This, however, will require your constant hard work and commitment.
