The planets are spread on both sides of the Rahu–Ketu axis.
How Kaal Sarp dosh is formed
Rahu and Ketu are always exactly opposite each other. If the Sun, Moon, Mars, Mercury, Jupiter, Venus and Saturn are all hemmed in on one side of this axis, the chart is said to have Kaal Sarp yoga. It is associated with repeated struggle and success after delay.
