Mars Antardasha in Venus Mahadasha: Results, Duration & Remedies
Mars Antardasha in Venus Mahadasha — duration and character
In the Vimshottari order, the Mahadasha of Venus runs 20 years — a chapter of Love, Marriage, Beauty, Art, Luxury, Vehicle, Pleasure. Within it, the Antardasha of Mars lasts 1 year 2 months (formula: 20×7÷120 years) — the chapter stays the same, but the subject is now set by Mars (Brother, courage, energy, land, blood, valor, controversy).
Within Venus's chapter, Mars brings forward its own significations — Brother, courage, energy, land, blood, valor, controversy. A neutral relation keeps results mixed — the decisive factor is both planets' placement in your chart.
How to read the results — the real rule
Results are decided not by the planet's name but by its state in your chart: the houses Mars owns, where it sits and its nakshatra — the Antardasha touches exactly those matters, with Venus's Mahadasha as the backdrop.
For finer timing, the Pratyantar-dasha and transits (especially Jupiter–Saturn) are read together — our free kundali gives a five-level dasha table plus event-timing analysis.
General remedies for this period
Mars (Antardasha lord): To give strength / peace to Mars, Tuesday fasting, recitation of Hanuman-Chalisa, chanting 'Om Angarakaya Namah' and Hanuman-worship are excellent. The gemstone coral (Red Coral) is worn in copper/gold, in the ring finger, Tuesday. The donation of lentils, red clothes and jaggery and anger management are especially beneficial; Aquarius marriage, etc., for auspicious defects, etc., are according to the scriptures.
