How is the Dasha period calculated?

Your Dasha sequence is calculated from your Moon's position at birth — specifically which Nakshatra (lunar mansion) the Moon occupied. The remaining time in that Nakshatra determines which Dasha you start with and when each subsequent period begins.

What is an Antar Dasha (sub-period)?

Each main Dasha (Maha Dasha) is divided into nine sub-periods called Antar Dashas. These fine-tune the influences of the main period. For example, during a Saturn Maha Dasha, you will experience sub-periods of each planet in sequence, blending Saturn's themes with each planet's nature.
