Which planets in the horoscope show the presence of pitra dosh?

Pitra dosha in the horoscope is caused by the influence of the planet Sun. Actually, the Sun is related to one’s ancestor. The conjunction of Saturn, Rahu, and Ketu is considered malefic for Sun. In such a situation, if the Sun has a conjunction with these planets, then Pitra Dosh is created in the horoscope of the native. Let’s explain this with help of some examples: 

Example1: In the first horoscope, Ketu is situated with the Moon in the third house. At the same time, there is a combination of Rahu, Sun, and Jupiter in the ninth house. The ninth house is called the house of luck. Along with this, the 9th house is the house of the father, this house also becomes very important. Here, Jupiter is being afflicted by Rahu, due to which Pitra Dosh is being created.

Example 2: Rahu and Ketu are placed in the fourth and tenth houses of the second horoscope. Ketu is in conjunction with Lagna lord Venus in the 4th house. At the same time, Rahu is situated with Moon in the 10th house. Both Ascendant and Moon are affected here, hence Pitra Dosh is taking place.
