The Generalised Rules to
Judge the Planetary periods in brief are as follows:-
1.
Consider the positions and affections of the period planet properly, for even a
good planet will not bear good fruit during its period, if it be ill affected
by sign or position, or afflicted by the majority of malefic planets, or in
divisional charts like Navamsa.
2.
The sub-period planet must be considered in the same way as the period planet,
but in addition thereto its relations with the period planet must be taken
carefully into account; for though the planets have natural enmity and
friendship existing between them, and due to their respective natures, yet when
the sub-period planet is in good aspect/relationship to the period planet it
will produce good, even though these planets be natural enemies. Similarly,
friendly and benefic planets will not produce good fruits, if weak or
afflicted, or themselves afflicting (by position) the period planet to which
they are related.
3.
The effects of the ruling or karaka planets are intensified at such time as the
Sun or major planets may be transiting through the signs occupied by them or
the signs over which they rule.
4.
The sub-sub-period planets are considered in the same manner, in regard to the
sub-period planets to which they are related, as these latter are to the period
planets. It thus happens that even when the period is a good one, as shown by
the position and affections of the period planet, yet there are sub-periods,
and again sub-sub-periods, when evils may naturally arise.
5.
The general effects of the planets thus related must be taken into account, and
their natural relations, as well as their temporary relations in the horoscope,
must be well considered. Thus, Saturn and Sun, although natural enemies by sign
and exaltation, may be respectively in Libra and Leo, in which case they are in
temporary good relations, occupying the third and eleventh signs respectively
from one another. Judgment is made accordingly, but it is to be understood that
a temporary friendship will not entirely overcome a radical and constitutional
enmity.
6.
The effects will further have relation to the nature of the house corresponding
to the sign occupied by the sub-period planet, in the period under
consideration. Thus if the period be that of Sun, and the sub-period be that of
Venus, and Venus be in the sign Aquarius, the effects will fall out in relation
to the eleventh house affairs; if Venus be in Libra, then seventh house affairs
will be affected.
7.
The sign, counted from the Ascendant, will give a further element of interpretation.
Thus if, in the sub-period of any planet, that planet occupies Leo, and Scorpio
and is in ascendant, the effects will fall on the tenth house affairs.
8.
The number of the signs counted from the period to the sub-period planet will
give the house corresponding thereto, over which the effects will hold sway.
Thus:- Sun in Virgo and Venus as sub-period planet in Scorpio will show the
third house affairs to be affected.
9.
The houses in the horoscope ruled by the planet whose period, sub-period, or inter-period
is considered must also be regarded as affecting.
10.
Rahu and Ketu (Dragon’s Head and Tail) have no houses, but transmit the
influence of the signs they are in, and of the planets to which they are
conjoined. The Dragon’s Head has affinity with the sign Scorpio, and the
Dragon’s Tail with the sign Taurus.
11. If
the inter-periods of the different sub-periods be taken into account, the above
“effects” will apply equally well to those also, by counting the sub-period
planet as a period planet, and the inter-period planet as a sub-period planet.
In this way the prognostics serve for every period of life, from the greatest
to the least, allowance being made for the relations of the significators in
the minor periods. In all cases the effects due to the Lord of period are of
prior importance, the sub-periods-lord and sub-sub-periods-lord following in
subsidiary order.
12.
During the period and sub-period of a very well disposed planet, nearly all
type of benefic result are likely. Similarly, when the sub-period planet under
consideration is ill disposed in all respects then the native faces all sort of
problems during that period e.g. when Mars is debilitated and badly aspected,
then the spouse may suffer or the native may have a car accident or loss of
property.
13.
During the sub-period of two planets having an exchange of their signs in Birth
chart, especial results are possible e.g. when Sun is in Capricorn and Saturn
is in Leo, then during each others period or sub-period excellent effects are
experienced pertaining to the houses and planets thus related.
14. In
the major period, it is the sub-period planet which will be more effective to
give results e.g. when Moon and Mars are in conjunction, then in the Moon-Mars
period accident, injury, violence and such happening are more likely. But
during Mars-Moon period more beneficial effects will be experienced according
to the Mars lordship of houses. As Mars work as an motivator for the Moon
(mind) thought and actions.
Travelling Direction
In judging of the
direction in which a person will travel, when such is shown in the horoscope,
or again in the Period., Sub-Period, and sub-sub-Period, effects, the following
rule is usually taken:-
1.
The first house, with its complements twelfth and second, governs the South.
2.
The tenth, with ninth and eleventh, governs the East.
3.
The seventh, with fifth and eighth, governs the West; and
4.
The fourth, with third and fifth, governs the North
Therefore, Mars rules the
East; the Moon rules the North; Venus governs the West; and Saturn the South.
Judgment is chiefly to be
made from the houses, and next, but subserviently, from the signs occupied by
the planets.

the forthcoming chapters we are attempting to give a clear and
concise presentation of the essential facts of Dasa systems, and intricacies of
Vimsottari Dasa, as preached by the ancient Seers and from our own experience.
