Budh (Mercury) Mahadasha — Surya (Sun) Antardasha

⏳ 10 months 6 daysSub-period 4 of 9Supportive pairing

Inside the 17-year Budh (Mercury) mahadasha, the Surya (Sun) antardasha runs for 10 months 6 days as sub-period 4 of 9. Brings authority, visibility and dealings with government or seniors to the front. The two lords are natural friends, so the sub-period tends to flow WITH the mahadasha theme — efforts compound rather than collide.

Classical basis: the Vimshottari sub-period rule of Brihat Parashara Hora Shastra — the antardasha spans (mahadasha years × antardasha lord’s years) ÷ 120, sub-periods run in the fixed order from the mahadasha lord, and the fruit is judged by the two lords’ mutual relation and the antardasha lord’s dignity in the birth chart.
