I moved abroad for work in Guru mahadasha and now Chandra antardasha has started. My mother is alone in India and I feel restless all the time. What does my chart show?

Please share your birth date, time and place. I will look at your Moon's sign, its phase at birth and its house from Jupiter, and your 4th house for home and mother. If the restlessness is heavy, please also talk to someone you trust.

The Moon's phase at birth. Brihat Parashara Hora Shastra 56.58 asks for a full Moon with strength; BPHS 3.11 counts a waning Moon as a malefic ¹⁷.
The Moon's sign and house. Verse 56.58 favours a kendra, trikona or the 11th, and the Moon exalted in Taurus or in Cancer ¹.
The Moon counted from Jupiter. Verse 56.59 favours a good sign from the dasha lord; 56.62 cautions on the 6th, 8th or 12th from it, true in 25.8% of calculated charts ¹³.

Your situation

What changes the reading of Jupiter-Moon in your chart?

Whether you were born near a full Moon. In the calculation, 33.4% of births fall within 60 degrees of full, the brightest third of the cycle.
Whether you live away from home. Verse 56.62 names displacement in foreign lands for a weak Moon, so people abroad often ask about this sub-period ³.
Who in the family you ask about. Verse 56.59 covers spouse and children, 56.63 the mother and a maternal uncle, each read from its own house ¹³.
Your ascendant. For Taurus the Moon rules the 3rd and Jupiter the 8th and 11th; for Cancer the Moon is the ascendant lord and Jupiter rules the 6th and 9th.

What the texts say

What does Brihat Parashara Hora Shastra say about Moon antardasha in Jupiter mahadasha?

Brihat Parashara Hora Shastra gives Jupiter-Moon verses 58 to 64 of chapter 56. It is the only sub-period in the chapter whose good condition asks for the planet to be full, purna, as well as well placed ¹.

For such a Moon, verses 59 to 61 read royal honour, happiness from spouse and children, milk-rice at meals, good deeds and fame, growth of the family line, and charity ¹². The site's English then joins the next condition to these results, but the second half of verse 61 begins the weak case.

Verses 61 to 63 read a Moon without strength, 6th, 8th or 12th from the ascendant or Jupiter, or with malefics: loss of honour, money and relatives, being uprooted in foreign lands, disputes with co-heirs, separation from a maternal uncle and distress for the mother ²³.

Phaladeepika 21.45 reads the pairing wholly well: victory over rivals, money, profit from farming and trade goods, fame and devotion ⁸.

Text and verse	Condition	What the text associates with it
BPHS 56.58-61 ¹²	Full, strong, kendra, trikona, 11th, exalted or own sign	Honour, family happiness, fame, charity
BPHS 56.61-63 ²³	Weak, 6th, 8th or 12th, or with malefics	Losses, uprooting abroad, mother's distress
BPHS 56.64 ⁴	Moon rules the 2nd and 6th	Bodily trouble; Durga Saptashati named
Phaladeepika 21.45 ⁸	Any chart	Victory, money, farming and trade profit, fame

Also asked

What else do people ask about Jupiter-Moon?

Is Jupiter-Moon the same as Moon-Jupiter? No. Moon-Jupiter is a sub-period of the 10-year Moon mahadasha, also 1 year 4 months long, with its own verses.
Does a waning Moon make Jupiter-Moon difficult? BPHS 3.11 counts a waning Moon as a malefic, and 56.58 asks for a full one, so many astrologers read a dark-half birth more carefully ¹⁷.
Does Jupiter-Moon help with buying a house? The verses name honour, family and charity rather than property, so a house question is read from the 4th house as well.
Where does Jupiter-Moon sit? It follows Jupiter-Sun and comes before Jupiter-Mars; the overview is on Jupiter mahadasha.

Myths and facts

What do people get wrong about this?

Belief: Jupiter with the Moon is always lucky, so this sub-period cannot go wrong.

Brihat Parashara Hora Shastra 56.61-63 sets out losses and family distress for a weak Moon 6th, 8th or 12th from Jupiter ²³. About a quarter of calculated charts place it there.

Belief: Restlessness in Jupiter-Moon is just the dasha and passes by itself.

BPHS 3.12 calls the Moon the mind, but a sub-period is not a diagnosis ⁹. Low mood that stays needs a person to talk to; Tele-MANAS on 14416 is free and answers at any hour ¹⁰.

FAQ

Questions people ask

What are the results of Guru mahadasha Chandra antardasha?

The results of Guru mahadasha Chandra antardasha follow the Moon's strength, says Brihat Parashara Hora Shastra. A full, strong Moon in a kendra, trikona or the 11th is linked with honour, family happiness and fame. A weak Moon 6th, 8th or 12th from Jupiter is linked with losses and distress for the mother.

Is Jupiter mahadasha Moon antardasha good for marriage?

Jupiter-Moon is linked with happiness from spouse and children for a strong Moon in Brihat Parashara Hora Shastra 56.59, but it does not name a wedding. Marriage timing is read from your 7th house, its lord, Venus and the transits, with both charts for a match.

How long does Guru mahadasha Chandra antardasha last?

Guru mahadasha Chandra antardasha lasts 1 year 4 months, about 487 calendar days. The rule is 16 years times 10 years divided by 120. It starts 11 years 4 months into Jupiter mahadasha, after Jupiter-Sun, and ends when Jupiter-Mars begins.

What does Jupiter-Moon mean for a Taurus ascendant?

For a Taurus ascendant, Jupiter-Moon pairs the 8th and 11th lord with the 3rd lord, so many astrologers read it through effort, siblings and gains. The Moon's phase, sign and house from Jupiter still decide the reading under chapter 56.

Should I wear a pearl in Jupiter mahadasha Moon antardasha?

Do not buy a pearl for Jupiter-Moon under pressure. The remedy Brihat Parashara Hora Shastra 56.64 names is Durga Saptashati recitation, and only for the Moon as 2nd and 6th lord. Get a second opinion before paying for any stone or ritual; Kismo suggests up to three other astrologers after a session.

I live abroad. Can I ask about Jupiter-Moon on Kismo?

Yes, you can ask about Jupiter-Moon on Kismo from abroad, since it works online from anywhere. Kismo is an app where you talk to verified Vedic astrologers by chat or call, in 16 languages. Each astrologer sets one rate, from ₹15 a minute, the same for chat and call.
