Sheshnag Kaal Sarp Yoga
Sheshnag Kaal Sarp forms when Rahu is in the 12th house and Ketu in the 6th. The axis spans loss, expenses, foreign lands and spirituality (12th) and health, competition and service (6th) so letting go, foreign ties and overcoming hidden obstacles run through it.

A balanced view
Ketu in the 6th (an upachaya house) can help overcome enemies and competition.
Kaal Sarp is only “full” when all seven planets lie between Rahu and Ketu. If even one planet sits outside the axis, the pattern is partial or absent so the first step is simply to check whether it is present in your chart at all.
Kaal Sarp is a chart pattern, all seven planets falling on one side of the Rahu–Ketu axis, not a curse or a guarantee of misfortune. Its effects are conditional on the strength and placement of the planets and the chart as a whole, and many accomplished people have it. If even one planet sits outside the axis, the pattern is partial or absent. Astroyana presents it factually, without fear, and no remedy is required to live a full life.
