Guru mahadasha Shukra antardasha runs for me until 2029. My parents want my marriage this year, but my father-in-law to be and I already argue. What does my chart say?

Please share your birth date, time and place, and your partner's if you have them. I will check your Venus's house, which planets sit with it, and its place from Jupiter. The text names in-law friction for one Venus combination, so that is where I start.

What the texts say

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

Brihat Parashara Hora Shastra gives Jupiter-Venus twelve verses, 39 to 50 of chapter 56, tied with Jupiter-Saturn and Jupiter-Mercury for the most. For a well placed Venus, verse 40 reads a palanquin yoga, a great ruler's favour and much gain ¹.

Verse 41 names a journey east that brings money, and joy for both parents. Verse 42 is the one in the chapter that turns to giving: devotion to gods and teachers, feeding people, and building ponds and temple gateways ¹.

The cautions are family ones. Verse 43 reads strife and distress for spouse and children when Venus is weak, and verse 44 names Saturn, Mars and Rahu joined with Venus as quarrels with women and with the father-in-law ². The site's English reads Mandara as Saturn alone, but the compound is Manda plus Ara, Saturn and Mars.

Verses 46 to 48 return to good results for Venus in a kendra, 2nd or 9th from Jupiter: a wife, sons, vehicles, music and the company of learned people ³⁴. Phaladeepika 21.43 reads the pairing wholly well, with goods, grain, clothes, a wife, children and devotion ⁵.

Text and verse	Condition	What the text associates with it
BPHS 56.39-42 ¹	With the 9th or a kendra lord, 5th, 11th or own sign	Favour, a journey east, charity, ponds and gateways
BPHS 56.43 ²	6th, 8th, 12th or debilitated	Strife, distress for spouse and children
BPHS 56.44-45 ²	Joined by Saturn, Mars and Rahu	Fear from authority, in-law and sibling disputes
BPHS 56.45-48 ³⁴	Kendra, 2nd or 9th from Jupiter	A wife, sons, music, learned company
Phaladeepika 21.43 ⁵	Any chart	Goods, a wife, children, devotion

Before you decide

What should I check before a wedding or a big purchase in Jupiter-Venus?

Ask which planets share your Venus's sign, since verse 56.44 is about that company ².
Ask where Venus falls from Jupiter, because verse 56.45 reads a kendra, 2nd or 9th as a wife and wealth ³.
For a wedding, have both charts read; a sub-period is one input, not the match.
For a vehicle, house or loan, take the numbers to a financial adviser before you sign.
Get a second opinion before paying for any ritual linked to the decision.

Marriage across the 16 years is on Jupiter mahadasha and marriage, and timing on when will I get married. Jupiter-Venus follows Jupiter-Ketu and is followed by the short Jupiter-Sun. The overview is on Jupiter mahadasha.

Myths and facts

What do people get wrong about this?

Belief: Jupiter and Venus are enemies, so their sub-period brings conflict.

The enmity runs one way: Venus counts Jupiter neutral under BPHS 3.55 ⁷. Verses 56.39-42 give Jupiter-Venus favour, gains and charity when Venus is well placed ¹.

Belief: Jupiter-Venus guarantees a wedding.

Brihat Parashara Hora Shastra 56.46 lists a wife among the results only for Venus in a kendra, 2nd or 9th from Jupiter ³. Marriage is read from the 7th house and both charts as well.

FAQ

Questions people ask

What does Guru mahadasha Shukra antardasha bring for marriage?

Guru mahadasha Shukra antardasha is linked with gaining a wife and children when Venus sits in a kendra, the 2nd or the 9th from Jupiter, says Brihat Parashara Hora Shastra 56.46-47. A weak Venus, or Venus joined by Saturn, Mars and Rahu, is linked with strain for the spouse and quarrels with in-laws.

When does Jupiter-Venus bring quarrels at home instead of happiness?

Jupiter-Venus is read as quarrels at home for a Venus that is debilitated, in the 6th, 8th or 12th, or joined by Saturn, Mars and Rahu. Brihat Parashara Hora Shastra 56.43-45 lists strife at home, distress for spouse and children, fear from authority and disputes with a sibling or father-in-law.

How is Jupiter-Venus read for a Scorpio or Taurus ascendant?

For a Scorpio ascendant, Jupiter-Venus joins the 2nd and 5th lord with the 7th and 12th lord, so many astrologers study it for marriage and family. For Taurus, Venus is the ascendant lord and Jupiter rules the 8th and 11th. Venus's house and company still decide the reading.

Why is Jupiter-Venus the longest antardasha in Guru dasha?

Jupiter-Venus is the longest because Venus has the longest Vimshottari period, 20 years. The rule is 16 times 20 divided by 120, which gives 2 years 8 months. It starts 7 years 10 months 12 days into Jupiter mahadasha.

Should I wear a diamond during Guru-Shukra antardasha?

Do not buy a diamond for Guru-Shukra antardasha under pressure. Brihat Parashara Hora Shastra 56.49-50 names a shanti rite and giving a white cow or buffalo, and only when Venus rules the 2nd and 7th. Walk away from anyone who prices a stone as protection, and get a second opinion first.
