Mahapadma Kaal Sarp has Rahu in the 6th (enemies, debts, disease, service) and Ketu in the 12th (foreign lands, expenses, moksha). This is actually considered one of the milder Kaal Sarp types because Rahu does well in upachaya houses.
Rahu in the 6th gives victory over enemies and competitors. The native fights hard and usually wins disputes, court cases, and competitive situations. Health may involve unusual or hard-to-diagnose conditions.
Ketu in the 12th is spiritually powerful - it gives interest in meditation, foreign travel, and detachment from material loss. Expenses may be on spiritual pursuits or foreign journeys. Sleep patterns can be unusual.
