Ch. 48. Distinctive Effects of the Nakshatr Dasha, or of the Dashas of the Lords (Vimshottari) of various Bhavas
1. If the Lord of Karm is placed in an auspicious Bhava in his exaltation Rashi etc., his Dasha effects will be favourable. The effects will be adverse, if the Lord of Karm is in his debilitation Rashi and occupies an inauspicious Bhava. This proves, that an inauspicious Grah in his exaltation Rashi etc. will not produce unfavourable results, if placed in an auspicious Bhava and a benefic, being in his debilitation Rashi and being placed in an inauspicious Bhava, will produce adverse effects. Now I will describe the effects of the Dasha of the Lords of various Bhavas, who are related to each other.
2-4. There will be physical well-being in the Dasha of the Lord of Lagn, distress and possibility of death in the Dasha of the Lord of Dhan, unfavourable effects in the Dasha of the Lord of Sahaj, acquisition of house and land in the Dasha of the Lord of Bandhu, progress in educational sphere and happiness from the children in the Dasha of the Lord of Putr and danger from enemies and ill health in the Dasha of the Lord of Ari.
5-8. There will be distress to wife and the possibility of the death of the native in the Dasha of the Lord of Yuvati, the possibility of death and financial losses in the Dasha of the Lord of Randhr, improvement in the educational sphere, religious-mindedness and unexpected gains of wealth in the Dasha of the Lord of Dharm, recognition from and awards by the Government in the Dasha of the Lord of Karm, obstacles in gains of wealth and the possibility of diseases in the Dasha of the Lord of Labh and distress and danger from diseases in the Dasha of the Lord of Vyaya. A Grah, placed in an auspicious Bhava, like Trikon etc., at the commencement of the Dasha, produces favourable results in his Dasha. The Grah, placed in Ari, Randhr, or Vyaya at that time, yields only adverse results during his Dasha. It is therefore essential, that the placement of a Grah at the time of birth and at the commencement of the Dasha should both be taken into account for the assessment of the Dasha effects.
14-17½. The Dasha of Ari’s, Randhr’s, or Vyaya’s Lord also becomes favourable, if they get associated with the Lord of a Trikon. If the Lord of a Kendr is in a Trikon, or the Lord of a Trikon is in a Kendr, the Dasha of the Grah, yuti with either of them, becomes favourable. The Dasha of a Grah, receiving a Drishti from the Lord of a Kendr, or Trikon is also favourable. If Dharm’s Lord is in Lagn and Lagn’s Lord is in Dharm, the Dashas of both of them will produce extremely beneficial results. There will be acquisition of a kingdom in the Dashas of Lagn’s Lord and Karm’s Lord, if Karm’s Lord is in Lagn and Lagn’s Lord is in Karm.
18-20. The Dasha of Sahaj’s, Ari’s and Labh’s Lord, of the Grahas, placed in Sahaj, Ari and Labh and of the Grahas, yuti with the above, will prove unfavourable. The Dasha of the Grahas, associated with the Lords of Marak Bhavas, namely Dhan and Yuvati, in Dhan, or Yuvati and the Dashas of the Grahas, placed in Randhr, will produce unfavourable effects. Thus the Dashas should be considered favourable, after taking into account the placement of a Grah and his relationship of one Grah with the other. (Rahu and Ketu give favourable results in Sahaj, Ari and Labh).
