Timing of Events
• Timing of events can be identified by the considering following
• The significations of Bhava’s (Houses)
• The significations of the 9 planets
• The Vimshottari Dasha
• As a general rule
• General assessment of horoscope is done and strength of Lagna, Sun, Moon are
checked
• Kendra and Trikona’s are evaluated
• Inter relation between the houses and their lords is verified
• Relationship between planet(s) posited in a house and its/their dispositor is checked
• Finally, the dasha pattern (sequence based on janma nakshatra) is checked
131
133
135
• If the house, house lord, significator and the house from significator are under the
influence of malefics (natural or functional); the results will not be good.
• If the malefic influence is more, then the native may receive bad results concerning to
that house based on the significations of the house.
• Considering the dispositor of the house lord, will help in assessing the results of the
concerned house.

Dasha Analysis

138
9/19/2021
139
• The dasha of Second lord valley give wealth, status, but being a maraka also gives
trouble in health. The Dasha of Second Lord is not good for wife or life partner since it is
7th house from the 2nd house.
• The dasha of 3rd lord can give birth to younger brother or sisters, it indicates short
journey , causes problems to health. 3rd house is 8th from 8th house
• The dasha of 4th lord will give vehicle, house, property, general happiness, ministerial
post in case of politicians etc. it can give trouble to father since 4th house is 8th from 9th
house.
• The dasha of 6th lord can cause diseases, fear from enemy, accidents, litigation and
trouble to children. Generally it has been noticed that this dasha is good for profession,
being the 9th from karma bhava.
• The dasha of 7th lord will give body trouble, marriage etc. it also gives high position
reputation in the public, since 7th house is the alternative house of profession - 10th from
10th house.
141
• The dasha of 9th lord in general is beneficial for the native. during this dasha native rises
due to luck, respect, religious journey, gain from foreign travel, gain from government
etc. Rise through education can also expected.
• The dasha of 10th lord will indicate the possibility of gain of wealth, increase in fame,
rise in profession, help from government. This dasha may not be good for mother as this
house is 7th from 4th house.
• The dasha of 12th lord in general will lead to loss of income, Body trouble etc. it also
gives bed pleasures and foreign travels.
143
145
• If dasha is indicating bad results and transit of planet is also indicating bad results
or dasha is indicating bad results and transit is indicating good results, the native
will have mixed results good and bad both.
• If dasha is indicating bad results and transit of planet is also indicating bad results,
the period will be very bad and native will get inauspicious results pertaining to
house, house lord of the dashanath and of the house in which the planet is
transiting.
147

• If there is heavy affiliation of 7th house, 7th lord, Venus and 7th house from the
Venus, it results in denial of marriage.

parameters set above, the marriage will take place during that period.
