Anant Kala Sarpa Dosha: Myths, Effects, and Remedies

Kala Sarpa Dosha is an astrological affliction in the horoscope, which can cause many problems. It occurs when all the 7 seven major planets—Sun, Moon, Mercury, Venus, Mars, Jupiter, and Saturn—are trapped between Rahu (the North Node) and Ketu (the South Node) in a horoscope. This Dosh can affect one’s health, career, relationships, fortunes, and mental well-being.
Kala Sarpa Dosha is of 12 kinds, depending on how Rahu and Ketu are placed in the birth chart. One of these is Anant Kala Sarpa Dosha, which poses many problems in one’s life. But it can also bring spiritual growth, as it helps people rectify their mistakes and seek balance in their lives by performing various remedies like doing certain rituals, chanting Mantras, and making lifestyle changes.
Anant Kala Sarpa Dosha
Anant Kala Sarpa Dosha forms in a birth chart when Rahu is in the first House and Ketu is in the seventh House. All the other planets are hemmed in by Rahu and Ketu. This creates a cosmic barrier, blocking the natural flow of energy in the native’s life. This causes many difficulties.
“Anant” means “infinite” or “eternal,” indicating the long-lasting impact of this Dosh. People with this Dosh can experience:
· Delays and obstacles in business/career
· Sudden health issues and emotional turmoil
· Difficulties in having stable relationships
· Inability to achieve their goals despite working hard
The native may feel that their life is a constant battle. They may also feel stuck in a rut.

During the Pooja, milk, honey, and water are poured over the Shivling as powerful Mantras are chanted. It helps purify the mind and body and nullify the adverse influences of the planets. 3. Pitru Dosh Pooja Kala Sarpa Dosha has an association with ancestral karma, so one can perform Pitru Dosh Pooja to appease one’s ancestors and reduce karmic burdens. This ritual also helps to release the negative energies that are passed down through generations. It can bring peace and get rid of hurdles due to unresolved ancestral karma. Mantras Chanting certain Mantras is a powerful remedy for this Dosha. Chant Maha Mrityunjaya Mantra 108 times daily. It is dedicated to Shiva. Chant Rahu Mantra to control Rahu’s negative effects. Chant Ketu Mantra to balance Ketu’s energy. Recite “Om Namah Shivaya” daily to reduce the Dosha’s effects. Gemstone Therapy Gemstones can balance the energies of Rahu and Ketu. Gomed/Hessonite gemstone represents Rahu. It can stabilize its effects, reduce confusion, and bring success. Cat’s Eye/Lehsunia gemstone represents Ketu. It removes its negative effects, and brings mental clarity and spiritual growth. Neelam/Blue Sapphire gemstone can help if Saturn influences the Dosha. Wear it only under expert guidance, or there can be negative consequences. Gemstones should be energized with specific Mantras before you wear them. Also, an expert astrologer has to prescribe them after studying your birth chart. Acts of Charity Doing good deeds helps reduce the bad karma associated with Anant Kala Sarpa Dosha. Donate sesame seeds, black gram (urad dal), blue or black cloth, and iron utensils on Saturdays to curb Rahu’s negative effects. Donate blankets, brown-colored clothes, etc., and feed stray dogs for relief from Ketu. Offer milk to snakes or food to crows, dogs, and cows. Donate food, clothes, and money to the poor. This creates good karma, which can reduce the adverse effects of Rahu and Ketu. Conclusion Anant Kala Sarpa Dosha affects one’s career, finances, health, relationships, and personal growth.
