So what is sarp dosh? I know it's a chart affliction (ugh so dislike that word) in which all planets except uranus (i guess pluto is excluded in vedic?) are on one side of the nodal axis. Am i right so far?

Also what are the the mental, emotional, and physical effects of this affliction especially in a woman's life? How would it affect her marriage, children etc?

Would the effects of sarp dosh supercede other negative aspects in a chart...meaning, how important is it in comparison to other negative aspects...is this one the worst?

I know someone fairly well off with sarp dosh and am curious how it affects people and why such a big deal is made about it in vedic astrology.

Thanks so much!

I'm also unsure of the time frame you're referencing when you say it's a relatively new topic in vedic astrology. Sarp dosh has to have been known for at least 30 yrs because the woman i mentioned in my op (and/or her mother) were told roughly 30 yrs ago that she has the negativity. She's extended family of a friend.

I understand about the hype...almost all vedic astrology interpretations seem to have an ominous ring, perhaps to further personal agendas of astrologers more than any relation with the truth...instilling fear is a good way to motivate/manipulate people into spending money as a way to handle the negativity. Not saying all astrologers are like this but a few bad apples...

Thanks for the assurance, i'm not freaking out, just want to understand it.
