What is Kemadruma Dosha
Kemadruma is a pattern in which the Moon stands alone, with no planet in its sign or in the signs just before and after it. Traditional texts link it with a feeling of isolation or with ups and downs in finances. It has so many cancellations that it is rarely judged alone.
How it is worked out
No planet other than the Sun, Rahu and Ketu in the Moon’s sign, the sign before it or the sign after it.
Common cancellations
- A planet (other than the Sun and the nodes) stands in the 1st, 4th, 7th or 10th sign from the Moon.कोई ग्रह (सूर्य और राहु-केतु को छोड़कर) चंद्रमा से 1ली, 4थी, 7वीं या 10वीं राशि में है।
- The Moon itself is in the 1st, 4th, 7th or 10th house from the Lagna.चंद्रमा स्वयं लग्न से 1ले, 4थे, 7वें या 10वें भाव में है।
- Jupiter looks at the Moon, from the 5th, 7th or 9th sign.गुरु चंद्रमा को 5वीं, 7वीं या 9वीं राशि से देखता है।

Questions
Is Kemadruma serious?
It is common by the strict rule, roughly 3 in 10 charts, and in our test about 19 in 20 of those charts also met at least one of the common cancellations. For that reason astrologers rarely read it by itself.

Before you act on this
Doshas are traditional patterns, not diagnoses. Astrologers differ on the rules and on how much weight to give them, and no single pattern can predict an outcome. Be careful of anyone who describes a dosha as dangerous and then sells an expensive gemstone, yantra or large puja. A trusted family priest rarely needs you to spend heavily, and gemstones cannot be proven to work.
Never delay a medical, legal or safety decision because of a dosha, and do not let one pattern decide a marriage.
