If you are extremely new to astrology please read my book 'Astrology @ the speed of light' followed by Conjunctions and Aspects @ the speed of light.. You should have fair understanding of houses, signs, planets, nakshatras, aspects, conjunctions and transits. These concepts can be understood in less than a day by reading my book. If you have never seen your Vedic birth chart before then please go to my website www.astrologykrs.com. 5 6 What are Mahadashas? First, instead of me spelling the name "Mahadasha" in the entire book, I will simply refer to it as “MD”. It will make things easier on everyone. MDs are known as planetary time periods in Vedic Astrology which every single living entity is running through from the moment they are born until the moment they die. These are cycles of planets that come into our lives to bring about a change, whether it's a certain situation, our ego, personality, perspective in life or even material/spiritual progress. MDs are the code breakers to predicting the past, present and future. They tell you what has happened, what is to come and what will happen in the coming cycle. The first thing about MDs you need to know is that planets do not start effecting you through some magical powers. The MD cycle shows activation of a certain chakra within your body at a certain age which are linked to the planets. MD are also the karmic pattern put as a set path by looking at the degrees of your moon. The position of the moon at birth sets this automatic path for you to alk on. Of course activation of chakras will not make you holy or wise because 99% of our chakras are clogged with dirty from past life karms which needs to be clean in this life. When the cycle of a certain planet starts it first affects your mind. You become a different person from the inside out. You start to behave and think like the planet through which your actions are brought forth in the world. The calculative method given by Rishi Parashara is simply to show "light" upon the path for a jataka. 7 I am sure you all know a person who went through the same routine year after year, not changing anything; but then suddenly they became different, unique, weird or even cool. Most will blame it on age, or their birthday; but many do not know that this same person might have just started a new MD after perhaps decades. Each planetary MD has its own length of time. Each planet has a certain number of years that they will operate in a person's life. The chronological order of planetary MDs you see below occurs for everyone. Sun - 6 years Moon - 10 years Mars - 7 years Rahu - 18 years Jupiter - 16 years Saturn- 19 years Mercury - 17 years Ketu - 7 years Venus 20 - years No matter what happens, after the Sun time period an individual will run the Moon time period. After that they will run the Mars period, and then comes Rahu, and so on and so forth. You will never see a chart where a person runs through a 7 year time period of Mars and then starts Saturn, no. After Mars, there will always be a Rahu period. Do not forget this order which starts from Sun and ends with Venus. When an individual is running through their Sun time period they will act like the Sun. If someone is running through Rahu period they will act like Rahu. A certain planetary time period brings many things to the surface. Below are the things that the individual will deal with in each mahadasha. 8 Why this sequence though? Why does Venus come after Ketu, why does the Sun come after Venus and why does the Moon come before the Mars period? The actual sequence of dashas actually starts from 'Kritika' nakshatra; the fire of creation, the spiritual fire that gave life to this Universe. Krittika is the desire of God that wanted to created this physical existence. But we will stick to what is known as the Ketu starting period. Why does the first nakshatra start with Ashwini which is controlled by Ketu? That is why when the Moon is in this nakshatra the Ketu MD starts. Ketu is our past, what we have accumulated in past life is the experience we are now bringing into this life. Our past karmas are the reason why we now exist again on this plain. The way to determine which MD a person will start at the moment they are born is seen through the nakshatra that the moon is placed in. You must have basic knowledge of nakshatras to understand this part. These are 27 lunar mansions which are known as constellations in english. They are the group of stars working behind the scenes of a zodiac sign. Depending upon a certain nakshatra the native will start their life with a particular MD cycle. They can either start from the beginning, middle or end of a certain dasha. This part is determined by the Pada that the moon is placed in. Each nakshatra has 4 padas. If the moon is placed in Magha nakshatra at birth, the native will start their life with Ketu mahadasha running. But how long will that MD be? Perhaps that MD may only last for 1 year, or 3 years. For this look at the pada of the moon in the child's report. If the Moon is in the 4th pada the baby will start their life towards the end of Ketu dasha. If moon is in the 2nd pada then they will start from 1/4 of the way into the dasha. Each of the 27 nakshatras are ruled by a certain planet, this is how we know which planet the MD of a native will start from. 9 I will now show you the nakshatra name and the planet that rules it. 1. Ashwini - Ketu 2. Bharani - Venus 3. Krittika - Sun 4. Rohini - moon 5. Mirgshira - Mars 6. Ardra - Rahu 7. Punravasu - Jupiter 8. Pushya - Saturn 9. Ashlesha - Mercury 10. Magha - Ketu 11. Purva Phalguni - Venus 12. Uttara Phalguni - Sun 13. Hasta - Moon 14. Chitra - Mars 15. Swati - Rahu 16. Vishaka - Jupiter 17. Anuradha - Saturn 18. Jyestha - Mercury 19. Mula - Ketu 20. Pruva Ashada - Venus 21. Uttara Ashada - Sun 22. Sharavan - Moon 23. Dhanishta - Mars 24. Satabisha - Rahu 25. Purva Bhadrapada - Jupiter 26. Uttara Bhadrapada - Saturn 27. Revati - Mercury 10 How to judge the Impact of Dashas • The person will become more like the planet in its time period. • Whichever house the planet is the karaka of those houses will become active as well. • The house which the planet rules in the horoscope will become the focus of life and will become active. • The house in which the planet sits in will express the issues related to the house it rules. • The sign placement of the planet will show in which form the person will experience those things. • The nakshatra in which the planet sits in will give results of the placement of nakshatra lord. • Day vs. Night birth • Aspects of the planets become active 11 • The pada of the planets shows the time of major results. • Mahadashas can also be judged from alternative ascendants. • Planets in the nakshatra of the MD lord will also activate themselves. • Through the understanding of Varga Vimshopak of planets • Through the Dasha Pravesh concept • Through the Varshphal Chart 12 Details of bullet points • The person will become more like the planet in its time period. The person will become more like the planet simply means that the personality of the person will be taking on the astrological qualities of the planet. If a person is running through MD of Saturn, which is a 19 year time period, the person will become more serious, mature, wise, more of a workaholic, will feel old, may get grey hairs, and will start loving older, classical and antique things. If a person is going through the time period of Mercury, (17 years) then they will become more jolly, fun, communicative, desiring to have a social circle, perhaps will educate themselves or attain a higher education, take some certification course, or write a book. If Venus period is operating then the person wants to become creative, artistic, feminine, and experience more of the luxury and pleasures of life. They will be surrounded by more women than men. Even if a lawyer or doctor goes through the time period of Venus they will be inclined to take on creative activities, whether its painting or playing a piano. Jupiter period makes a person (sometimes) too optimistic, philosophical and a natural teacher, they feel hopeful, inspired and yearn to learn wisdom.

This belt is considered special because it is where the sun, the moon, and the planets all move. The word zodiac means “circle of figures” or “circle of life”. As the earth revolves around the sun, different parts of the sky become visible. Each month, one of the 12 constellations show up above the horizon in the east and disappears below the horizon in the west. If you are born under a particular sign, the constellation it is named for can’t be seen at night. Instead, the sun is passing through it around that time of year making it a daytime constellation that you can’t see!

  • Drekkanna - the D/3 Chart = Dreshkhamsa
    DREKKANNA - THE D/3 CHART = DRESHKHAMSA Drekkana the D-3 chart = dreshkhamsha = a graphic representation of the placement of each radix graha into one of the 36 Drekkana BPHS Chapter 6: Shloka 7-8. Dreshkamsha: "One third of a Rashi is called Dreshkamsha. These are totally 36, counted from Mesha, repeating thrice at the rate of 12 per round. The 1st, 5th and the 9th Rashi from a Rashi are its three Dreshkhamsha and are,respectively, lorded by 1. Narada, 2. Agasthya 3. Durvasha." The meaning of the word DRESH – KANA DRESH mens seeing or visualizing objects which are apparent or hidden (obscure) in nature. KANA means corner or trine (Trikona). Therefore, Dreshkana represents the varga (division) where the signs, trine to each other, convey apparent as well as hidden personality and nature (swaroopa) of the native. Quotes From: David Frawley. the Astrology of the Seers, p. 186: "In this harmonic the first 1/3 or ten degrees 00° 00'-10° 00' of any sign ruled by itself. The middle 1/3,10° 00'-20° 00', is ruled by the subsequent sign of the same element. The last 1/3, 20° 00'-30° 00', is ruled by the final sign of the same element. For example, the first 1/3 of Sagittarius is in the harmonic third of Sagittarius, the second 1/3 in the harmonic third of Aries, and the last 1/3 in the harmonic third of Leo. Hence, if Saturn is located in a birth chart at 15° 20' Sagittarius, it would be in the harmonic third of Aries.

  • The Natural Zodiac: the Nature of the Archetypes in Evolutionary Astrology
    The Natural Zodiac: The nature of the archetypes in Evolutionary Astrology. An introduction to the teachings of Jeffrey Wolf Green by Mark Jones, U.K. Pluto School, May 2003. The Zodiac itself represents or incorporates the totality of consciousness in human form on the earth in space-time reality. All of our human experience within the relative universe is contained within the 12 signs of the Zodiac. The next central point to understand is that from the perspective of Evolutionary Astrology there is no essential difference between a planetary embodiment of an archetype or that of a house cusp or planet – in simple terms, with the example of the first archetype Aries - there is no difference between the sign Aries, the first house and the planet Mars. They all carry some essential quality as the first of the twelve – they all share an essential similarity. What you are actually looking at when you look at a chart is how any given consciousness is structured. The 12 archetypes provide energy and quality within a multiplicity of possible interactions with each other to create the diversity of possible experience in life on earth. Rather like DNA the 12 strands or archetypes of the zodiac provide a blueprint for all experience. ARIES Aries is a Cardinal, Fire and Yang archetype. This correlates with the nature of energy moving outwards from the center, projected energy (whereas the Yin archetypes correspond to energy returning to the center). Whilst the Yin/Yang dynamic of the signs represents the natural polarity of our universe, the trinity of Cardinal, Fixed and Mutable signs adds a further dimension to the type of energy expressed.

Hora, the Least Understood Divisional Chart By Shiv Kumar Chadha Hora is the divisional chart in Vedic Astrology, used for assessing the financial standing of the subject. The first half of odd signs and second half of the even signs, have the Hora of the Sun, whereas the second half of odd signs and first half of even signs have the Hora of the Moon. Currently Hora chart being made by the astrologers or computer programs, displays planets in Cancer and Leo signs only, leaving other signs blank. This is not correct way of making this chart and therefore does not help in interpreting it properly. Parashar in chapter 6 verse 6, has clearly stated that Horas are 24 in number with the 12 signs Aries to Pisces making two rounds to occupy these 24 Horas. To explain it, divide each sign in two parts and place Hora signs in Romans underlined as I, II, III, make them look distinguished in the diagram attached. Hora Table, Signs and Horas Aries and Libra 1. 00 00 - 15 00 Aries 2. 15 00 - 30 00 Taurus Taurus and Scorpio 3. 00 00 - 15 00 Gemini 4. 15 00 - 30 00 Cancer Gemini and Sagittarius 5. 00 00 - 15 00 Leo 6. 15 00 - 30 00 Virgo Cancer and Capricorn 7. 00 00 - 15 00 Libra 8. 15 00 - 30 00 Scorpio Leo and Aquarius 9. 00 00 - 15 00 Sagittarius 10.
