“God’s light is within you, It never leaves you.”
Kaal Sarp Dosha is also known as Kaal Sarp Yoga, a dreaded combination of planets that can make one’s life miserable.
According to astrologer, Kaal Sarp Dosha is formed in a horoscope/kundali when all seven planets (Sun, Moon, Mercury, Venus, Jupiter, Saturn, and Mars) are situated between Rahu and Ketu (the demon Rahu lying axially in opposite directions and dividing the zodiac into two equal parts).
The word ‘Kaal’ means death and Sarpa means snake and the name itself is sufficient to scare people.
It is believed that a person born under Kaal Sarp Dosha lives a difficult life.
If the birth chart forms a complete Kaal Sarp Yoga then it will cancel out all the good Yoga’s of that chart and make the native’s life extremely difficult.
However, Kaal Sarp Dosha can be formed in any person’s horoscope and it is not necessary that every person who has Kaal Sarp Dosha in their Kundali is unlucky.
Anyone like a king, president, prime-minister, man, woman, poor, etc.
may have Kaal Sarp Yoga in their horoscope.
But in spite of all kinds of facilities, power, and position, they will always suffer from some tension, fear, & insecurity in their life, just like a person who has been bitten by a snake and cannot sit comfortably.
Astrologically it is believed that Kaal Sarp Dosha is more dangerous than other malefic yoga, and this dosha affects a person till 55 years and sometime throughout the life depending upon the position of Kaal Sarp yoga in the birth chart.

What is Kaal Sarp Dosh?
Vedic astrology has many Yogas, while some are auspicious and others are inauspicious. Presence of auspicious Yogas will increase happiness in life and inauspicious Yogas can create obstacles in the life of a person.
Kaal Sarp Dosh is one such inauspicious Yoga.
Let us understand the impact of this Dosh.
When we hear that we have Kaal Sarp Dosh in our birth-chart then primarily it tweaks our curiosity and we get curious to know about Kaal Sarpa Dosha. Kaal Sarpa Dosha is an astrological Yoga which forms through the placement of two malefic planets, Rahu and Ketu.
As Kaal Sarp Dosh gives inauspicious results people call it a Dosha instead of Yoga.
It is believed that those who have hurt or killed snakes in their last birth will get Kalasarpa Dosha in their present birth.
Some astrologers call it Pitra Dosha because they believe this Dosha affects a person if he does not perform tasks related to Manas (Pitra) with full faith and trust in their last birth.
Vedic Jyotish speaks of a mythological tale related to Kaal Sarp Dosh.
It is believed that when Gods and demons were fighting with each other for the nectar pot, whilst churning the ocean, Lord Vishnu appeared in the form of Mohini.
He tried to give the nectar away to the Gods by confusing the demons.
Swarbhanu, one of the demons was seated with the Gods.
When Lord Vishnu gave nectar to Swarbhanu the Moon identified him as a demon and informed Lord Vishnu.
When Vishnu got to know he cut his head through his Chakra.
Following that Swarbhanu’s head was called Rahu and body was called Ketu.
They got placed in the constellation.
All planets move in the forward as well as retrograde, but Rahu and Ketu always move retrograde.
Both of these planets are situated in the seventh house from each other.
When other seven planets are placed between these two planets then Kalasarpa Dosha forms in the horoscope.
Placement between Rahu-Ketu reduces the positivity and strength of the planets.
A person who has Kaal sarpa dosha all through his life feels entangled in such situations that in spite of best efforts he is unable to move out from this.
Just like the planets hemmed between Rahu and Ketu, a person with dosha will also finds himself hemmed between such unwanted situations and unable to move out.
This dosha is a dreaded and creates miserable situations for the native.
It has the capacity to cancel all good yogas present in the horoscope.
It is similar to the Paap-kartari yoga where a house or a benefic planet is surrounded by malefics.
How Kalasarpa Dosha Forms?
Rahu-Ketu are known as painful planets. According to Vedic scriptures, these two planets are two parts of a body.
This body resembles a snake. Rahu is the head and Ketu is the tail.
Rahu is known as the dragon’s head and Ketu is known as the dragon’s tail in English.
When Sun, Moon, Mars, Mercury, Jupiter, Venus and Saturn are placed between Rahu and Ketu during their transit at the time of birth then Kalsarpa Yoga is formed in the horoscope of a person.
This Dosha is well-discussed by Jaimini, Parashari, Varahmihir, Badrayana, and Garg in their respective scriptures.
They all are the famous saints of Vedic astrology.
If any planet moves out from the middle of Rahu and Ketu then Kalsarpa Yoga does not form in the horoscope.
In this case, one thing is important to consider i.e. planet which moves out from Rahu-Ketu should have high degrees than Rahu-Ketu otherwise the person would be influenced by Kalasarpa Dosha. Kalasarpa Dosha forms when Rahu-Ketu are placed in the second, sixth, eighth or eleventh house and all the planets are placed on the one side of the hemisphere.
Although, if all seven planets are placed in the opposite direction then Ardhachandra Yoga forms instead of Kalasarpa Dosha in the horoscope.
Modern Views among Formation of Kalasarpa Dosha
Some modern astrologers said if auspicious planets are placed on the lower degrees, debilitated, aspected by malefic planets then their results would be same as Kalasarpa Dosha.
Effects of Kaal Sarp Dosh:
- Not getting deserving results in spite of hard work.
- Deception by close friends and family.
- Repeatedly incurring losses in business
- Problems in marriage or disturbed married life.
- Problems in conceiving a child or children not doing well in any field.
- Constant issues related to health.
- Repeatedly getting injured.
- Somebody else getting honored for the work done.
- Getting scary dreams or seeing snakes in dreams.
- Miscarriage or birth of a dead child.
The above are some of the difficulties one faces in life when you have Kaal Sarp Dosh. It is important to note that those who have Kaal Sarp Dosh and face a lot of obstacles in life but at the same time they become much more mature and are in a position to face any challenge life throws on them.
Life as such is a struggle and one has to do a lot of struggle to survive in this world. Some of the most famous personalities who have this Dosha and have risen in their life after a lot of struggle are Abraham Lincoln, Jawahar Lal Nehru, Sachin Tendulkar, Dhiru Bhai Ambani, etc.
Kaal Sarp Dosh Puja is done at the Mahakal Temple in Ujjain and at the Trimbakeshwar Mandir near Nasik in Maharashtra.

12 Kaalsarp Doshas
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.
Having said that, here are 12 Kaalsharp doshas in kundli and remedies to tackle each of them.
1. 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.

When it comes to married life, it is to remain normal for the native dealing with Kalik dosh.

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.
