VIMSHOTTORI DASHA S
Starting point for calculation
Śastra provides few points as starting points but for phalita (predicitng) we use:
Ø Lagna
This option is of choice when Kendra to Lagna is stronger than Kendra to Moon.
Lagna-Vimshottari demands rectification up to D-60 chart, so if this is not available we should use Chandra Vimshottari.
Ø Chandra
This should be chosen when Kendra to Moon are strong.
Chandra Vimshottari is always accurate and shows society interaction and our desires involved.
Some famous astrologers were very accurate using only Chandra Vimshottari.
Ø Utpanna (fifth star)
Shows śrishtri (creation) and means that native focused on creating something innovative for the society, this will show how this process of creation evolves.
This Dasa should be used when Moon is in third, eight or sixth, eleventh.
Moon in third, sixth, eight or eleventh shows weak relation with the ‘tides’ of the society and Chandra-Vimshottari may not be so accurate for these charts.
Whilst analysing the strength of Moon/Lagna if arrived at equal strength we should see if Ju/Me or Nakshatra Lord aspects by Rashi Dristi Moon or Lagna. If still equal, then Moon-Vimshottari should be chosen.
