What is a Dasha?
Dasha means 'period of rule'. Each planet governs a segment of your life for a fixed number of years — from 6 (Ketu) to 20 (Venus).
It’s like chapters in your life story, where each planet sets the tone for themes and priorities.
Understanding Vimshottari Dasha — Your Planetary Timeline
In Vedic astrology, the Vimshottari Dasha reveals how planetary periods unfold throughout life, showing when certain energies dominate.
The Planetary Sequence
The classical order is: Ketu → Venus → Sun → Moon → Mars → Rahu → Jupiter → Saturn → Mercury.
Each Dasha is subdivided into sub-periods (Antar Dasha), giving monthly or yearly precision.
How to Interpret Dashas
Your current Dasha shows what area of life is in focus. For instance, a Jupiter Dasha favors learning and expansion, while a Saturn Dasha tests discipline and structure.
The results depend on each planet’s strength and position in your chart.
