Contrary to popular belief, Pitra Dosh truly represents an ancestor’s karmic debt, as opposed to being a curse from the past. The individual with Pitra dosha in his or her Kundli must pay it because it appears in the Kundli as malefic planetary combinations. Simply said, when an ancestor made a mistake or committed a transgression, pitra dosh is created in that person’s horoscope. The native is then held responsible for making amends for any offences of their ancestors’ past deeds by undergoing various punishments.
When Pitra Dosha is present in a person’s horoscope, inevitable and unanticipated difficulties may arise in that person’s life. One’s lifespan is severely upended and downended by it. The native typically struggles with a lack of both money and mental clarity.

Houses and Planets that Denote Pitra Dosh
SUN is a symbol for ancestors and fathers.
MOON is a symbol for Mother and Mind.
Saturn stands for obligations, sin, and challenges in life.
The 9th house depicts former lives and ancestors, whereas the 2nd house symbolises kinship, heritage, and bloodlines.
The planetary pairings that cause Pitra dosh
A Kundli is deemed to have Pitra dosh if Rahu or Ketu are in conjunction with or aspecting the ninth house or its lord in the horoscope.
When Rahu or Ketu are aspected or conjugated with the Sun or Jupiter in the Kundli, Pitra dosh is somewhat affected.
The first, second, fourth, seventh, ninth, and tenth houses of the birth chart are occupied by the Sun and Rahu or the Sun and Saturn.
When Rahu is in the ascendant and the ascendant’s lord is in the sixth, eighth, or twelfth house, Pitra Dosha also manifests in the horoscope.
The native may experience serious accidents, injuries, vision problems, and other difficulties in life as a result of the lord of the sixth, eighth, or twelfth house aspecting or conjuncting the planets that make up the Pitra dosha.

To remember and honour their ancestors, the locals must execute the Shradh ceremonies with the utmost seriousness and trust.
