Introduction to the Mahadasa system and Tripagi division in Vedic astrology.
The Mahadasa system in Vedic astrology is a method used to understand the significant periods of
influence of each planet in an individual's life. It is based on the Vimshottari Dasha system,
which is one of the most widely used methods in predictive astrology. Here are the basic principles
and structure. Mahadasa, major period. The Mahadasa is the primary period of influence of a planet in
a person's life. Each planet has a specific duration, during which it significantly influences
the native's experiences, opportunities, challenges, and overall life direction.
Two, Antardasha sub-period. Within each Mahadasa, there are sub-periods known as Antardasha.
Each Antardasha is ruled by the same planet as the Mahadasa, but combined with the influence of
other planets in a cyclic order. The duration of Antardasha is proportional to the duration of the
Mahadasa. Three, Pratyantardasha sub-period. Each Antardasha is further divided into smaller
sub-periods called Pratyantardasha. These represent even more precise periods where the influence of
different planets manifests in conjunction with the Antardasha planet. Four, periods of each
planet in Vimshottari Dasha in years. One, Ketu, seven years. Bring spiritual growth,
sudden changes, detachment, health issues. Two, Venus, 20 years. Focus on relationships,
luxury, comfort, creativity, financial gains. Three, Sun, six years. Focus on authority,
self-esteem, career growth, leadership qualities. Four, Moon, 10 years. Emotional experiences,
family matters, mental peace, public recognition. Five, Mars, seven years. Energy, courage, conflicts,
initiatives, physical activity, accidents. Six, Rahu, 18 years. Illusion, materialism,
unconventional paths, obsessions, sudden gains or losses. Seven, Jupiter, 16 years. Knowledge,
wisdom, growth, education, wealth, religious activities. Eight, Saturn, 19 years. Hard work,
delays, discipline, restrictions, long-term gains, karmic lessons. Nine, Mercury, 17 years. Communication,
intellect, business, travel, learning, adaptability. Ketu, spiritual pursuits, detachment, confusion,
losses related to ego or status. Venus, love, relationships, marriage, artistic success,
pleasures, indulgence. Sun, success in career, rise in status, health issues related to heart or eyes.

challenges, slow progress, maturity. Mercury, intellectual pursuits, communication skills,

Nuz 6, calculation and activation. The Mahadasha sequence begins at the time of birth and is
determined by the position of the Moon in a specific nakshatra. The nakshatra lord determines
which planets Mahadasha will be active at birth and the sequence of the Mahadashas follows a set
pattern. This system is used to analyze the timing of various events in a person's life
and to understand the planetary influences during specific periods. Each Mahadasha,
Antardasha and Pratyardasha period brings a blend of planetary influences,
reflecting their combined effects on the individual's life.
Half-Tribhagi or the Three-Division System in Vedic Astrology. The Tribhagi or the Three-Division
System is a nuanced approach to understanding the specific energies and experiences one might go
through during a particular Mahadasha, Antardasha or Pratyantardasha. This system divides the duration
of a dasha into three equal parts and correlates each part to the qualities of the three nakshatras
governed by the same planet. Principles of the Tribhagi System. One, division into three parts.
Each dasha period is divided into three equal parts corresponding to the three nakshatras
ruled by the same planet. For example, if the Mahadasha is of Ketu, it is divided into three
parts corresponding to Ketu's nakshatras, Ashwini, Maga and Mula. Two, influence of nakshatra energies.
The first part of the dasha will reflect the qualities and energies of the first nakshatra
under that planet's lordship. The second part will reflect the qualities of the second nakshatra.
The third part will reflect the qualities of the third nakshatra.
Three, Moon's placement and energies. The energy experienced during the dasha can also depend
on the specific nakshatra where the moon is placed at the time of birth. The energies of the dasha
get refined based on this initial nakshatra placement, emphasizing the characteristics of
that nakshatra in each part of the dasha. Example, Ketu Mahadasha in the Tribhagi System.
If a person is born in a Ketu nakshatra like Maga nakshatra during Ketu Mahadasha,
one, first part, Ashwini-like energies, this phase is influenced by Ashwini-nakshatra characteristics.
Energies, quick active, dynamic changes, new beginnings, healing energies and impulsive actions,
there might be a strong desire to initiate new ventures or a sudden change in direction.
Second part, Maga-like energies, this phase is influenced by Maga-nakshatra characteristics.
Energies, focus on power, authority, legacy and connection to ancestral or traditional values.
There may be a need to establish oneself in a position of power or to connect with one's roots
and heritage. Third part, Mula-like energies, this phase is influenced by Mula-nakshatra
characteristics. Energies, deep transformation, uprooting old foundations, intense research
and seeking the truth. There may be a phase of significant internal or external upheaval,
leading to a deeper understanding or realization. Application to each planet's Mahadasha.
One, K2, Ashwini. First part, Ashwini-initiation, healing, new beginnings. Second part,
Maga-authority, leadership, ancestral ties. Third part, Mula-transformation, destruction,
search for truth. Two, Venus-barani-pervulguni-pervashada. First, Parani-creativity, endurance,
dealing with constraints. Second part, pervafalguni-pleasure, relationships, luxury. Third part,

service. Third part, ashwada, final success, determination, clarity. Moon, Rohini. First

Third part, shravana, learning, listening, wisdom. Five, Mars-mrigashira-janishta.
Rigashira-curiosity, exploration, restlessness. Second part, chitra, creativity, architecture,
brilliance. Danishta, wealth, fame, rhythm. Six, Rahu-adra-shatabisha. First part,
ardra-turbulance, research, detachment. Second part, swati-independence, flexibility, balance. Third
part, shatabisha, healing, secrecy, reclusiveness. Seven, Jupiter, punavas-vishakhka, pervabhadrapa.
Punavas-rebirth, homecoming, renewal. Vishakhka, duality, goal-orientation, growth.
Pervabhadrapada, mysticism, transformation, severance. Eight, satan, pushya-anaratha.
Uttara-first part, pushya-nourishment, discipline, protection. Second part, anaratha, devotion,

Nine, mercury-ashlesheshta-ravati. Faslesha, mysticism, control, secrecy. Second part,

using the Trebhagi system. This system helps refine the interpretation of each Dasha period,
providing more detailed insights into the types of experiences and lessons an individual might go
through. By understanding the Trebhagi division, one can predict changes in life more accurately
during different parts of a Dasha and prepare accordingly. This system, combined with the
primary Dasha and Bhukti analysis, gives a comprehensive picture of how planetary energies
unfold over time.
