सामान्य प्रश्न

What is Vimshottari Dasha?

Vimshottari Dasha is a 120-year planetary period system used in Vedic astrology for timing predictions. Each of the nine planets rules a period of years (Sun 6, Moon 10, Mars 7, Rahu 18, Jupiter 16, Saturn 19, Mercury 17, Ketu 7, Venus 20). The sequence starts from the planet ruling the Nakshatra the Moon occupied at birth. It is the primary predictive tool in Jyotish astrology.

How do I calculate my Vimshottari Dasha?

Your current dasha is calculated from your birth Moon Nakshatra and birth time. Each Nakshatra has a ruling planet that begins the dasha sequence. The proportion of the starting dasha already elapsed at birth is calculated from the Moon's exact degree within the Nakshatra. A Vedic birth chart calculator (using exact birth time, date, and place) will show your current Mahadasha, Antardasha, and the dates of all future dasha periods.
