Ketu Mahadasha
केतु महादशा
Overview — सारांश
Ketu Mahadasha is a 7-year period of intense spirituality, past-life karma resolution, and detachment. Ketu is the headless cosmic serpent — moksha karaka, liberation giver, and dissolver of the ego. This dasha often brings spiritual awakening, psychic experiences, and a deep desire to renounce material attachments. Results depend heavily on Ketu's placement and conjunctions.
