Kaal Sarp Dosh Calculator
Analyze whether all 7 classical planets fall on one side of the Rahu-Ketu axis in your natal birth chart, along with its 12 house classifications.
How I Calculate Kaal Sarp Dosh
Kaal Sarp Yoga occurs when all seven classical planets (Sun, Moon, Mars, Mercury, Jupiter, Venus, Saturn) fall within one half of the zodiac hemmed between the Rahu (North Node) and Ketu (South Node) axis.
I evaluate your chart by extracting exact planetary longitudes using Swiss Ephemeris (`pyswisseph`) under Lahiri Ayanamsha.
The engine checks whether all 7 planets lie between Rahu and Ketu in continuous house sequence, classifying the result into one of 12 named varieties (Anant, Kulik, Vasuki, Shankhpal, Padma, Mahapadma, Takshak, Karkotak, Shankhachood, Ghatak, Vishdhar, and Sheshnag) based on Rahu's house placement.

Understanding the 12 Named Kaal Sarp Types
Kaal Sarp Yoga is classified into 12 named types according to Rahu's house position from the Lagna (e.g. 1st house Rahu = Anant Kaal Sarp, 7th house Rahu = Takshak Kaal Sarp).
Balanced Perspective: Focus vs Fear
Classical astrology views Kaal Sarp as an intense focal axis demanding discipline. Many high achievers possess this yoga; it signifies concentrated energy rather than fatalistic harm.
Constructive Alignment Practices
Traditional mindfulness practices include Shiva meditation, Mahamrityunjaya mantra, and selfless community service to harmonize nodal energies.
