Mahadasha - different phases of planets February�05,�2014 Every planet - including

the shadow planets Rahu and Ketu have their own maha-dasha or phase that affects
each person at different times. It is only under the effect of positive planets
that one can expect good things to continue for a long time, but the opposite is
applicable if a negative planet starts its transit on you. Below are the number of
years that each planet's phase lasts in one's horoscope: Sun - 6 years Moon - 10
years Mars - 7 years Jupiter - 16 years Shani - 19 years Mercury - 17 Ketu - 7 Rahu
- 18 years Venus - 20 years It's easy to pass the good times, but one should know
when a bad phase is about to start. This is easily possible through looking at
one's palm. To find the mahadasha, check your kundali/birth chart details - it's
usually mentioned in each computerized horoscope. Let's start with the Sun's
mahadasha/phase:� If on the mount of Sun you have a mole, a spot, a sign of cross,
or the mount of Sun is flat, or if the mount has moved towards the Saturn mount
then it shows that your mahadasha of Sun will not be easy. You may have to undergo
a lot of difficulties, you may experience weakness in the body, you may not get
enough love from your father, you may get a blow to your reputation and you may
even go through "raj-dand" - some from of punishment from the state. This may also
affect one's political life negatively.� If the mount of Sun has at least one
straight line, which is not broken anywhere and the mount is at least slightly
raised, then one gets a good Guru and is able to connect with one's isht dev and
one starts to improve regularly and gradually.� To make Sun positive, make sure you
give everyone in your family same amount of respect. Make sure you have a Tulsi
plant or a Sunflower plant in your home. People who see that their Sun is negative
should stop eating salt on Sundays. They should also do adity-hridya-stotra or
gayatri mantra regularly. They should also donate some watermelon, which is the
1/10 their weight. So, if someone weighs 70kg, they'd need to donate 7kg of
watermelon. Mahadasha of the Moon:� If the Moon's mount is slightly raised and the
outer area of the palm from the Mercury finger to the bracelet overall has a curve,
is not very plump, then it shows a positive Moon. One can go to visit religious
places or go on foreign travels, and/or attain raj-yog if one goes through the
mahadasha of such a positive Moon. You may achieve a position of a judge or someone
who decides during the phase of Moon. Your skin will also start improving. You will
get special love/care from your Guru, which pave the way for you to succeed. You
will start getting support of women, regardless, if they were your enemies in the
past. Your possessions/property will also start to increase in the positive phase
of Moon. You will also be able to gain a lot of knowledge during this period. A
woman who is your mother's age may enter your life and give you a lot of love and
property. Despite the positivity of the Moon, you may notice that you are sick
during the Moon's phase in the form of cold, headache, weakness of the eyes, or
congestion of the chest .� If the mount of Moon is flat, the outer area from under
the Mercury finger to the bracelet is straight, and a very fine line goes towards
the mount of Venus or if the head line falls towards the mount of Moon, then it
shows a negative Moon. It may result in your mother's health getting badly
affected, your character may get tarnished, your good friends may leave you, your
teachers/Guru may also be angry with you, your neighbors will also stop visiting
you. You may be allergic to wheat. You may not be able to cure any cold related
illness easily. Your mind will become full of negative thoughts.� As remedies for a
negative Moon, donate some white clothes. Never leave the company of intelligent
men, even if they may not like being with you. Always be under the guidance of a
Guru/mentor - again your Guru will not particularly like you because of the Moon
being negative. Do go on travels and plant at least 5 fruit trees in a year. Start
eating ashwagandh. Keep a fast on ekadashi.� Mahadasha of Mars: If your lower area
of Mars (next to the life line) has a few lines coming from it which touch the
life-line at the start, then such a person does get property during the Mars phase.
If on the upper Mars, there is a line that is vertical then you will surely get a
very good property. Such a person gets his soul mate/marries during Mars' phase. If
the lower area of Mars is raised and there are no cut lines on this area then, it
shows the person will have love from siblings and will be brave and all problems
will get resolved. � If the lower or upper Mars of area is turning black, has
spots, there are many lines in the lower area of Mars, then it shows that Mars'
phase will not be positive for you. It will increase your anger, you may get into
property disputes. Your relationship with everyone in your home will deteriorate
and good people will start disliking you. There may also be case of you being hurt
in accidents, there may be some accidents involving weapons or fire too, your food
may start falling off your hands often, your concentration will weaken, you may
have headache or bone pain. Your bed and chairs will also start breaking more than
usual and your travels may also have some hurdles. Professional success and your
physique both depend on a good Mars. A negative Mars causes a bad effect on the
amagdala too, which can result in blood pressure related problems. The frontal lobe
and left hemisphere of your brain also gets disturbed which has a bad effect on
your memory and concentration. As remedies, you should do sundar-kaand paath
regularly or at least on Tuesdays. You should do rudra-abhishek on your birthday.
Donate "moonga" stone on your birthday or on the Tuesday near your birthday. Donate
cooked food every Tuesday. Try never to get angry.� Mahadasha of Mercury: People
whose Mercury finger is straight, crosses the first phalange of the Sun line, and
there are one or maximum 2 lines on the mount, then it shows that your Mercury is
positive. This means you will be blessed with a sharp brain, you will be wealthy,
you may be somewhat greedy, but you do succeed in life. Such a person does get
married or has at least one special friend. Mercury also allows one to see one's
isht dev and attain "vaak-sidhi". If your Mercury is good then it makes you good at
understanding finance and new discoveries. You have thoughts about starting your
own business too.� If your Mercury finger is not straight and bends forward or
backward or is crooked, or has too many lines on the mount, then it shows a
negative Mercury. You may not have enough wealth, your brain may not have enough
power, you may suffer from skin and throat related problems, there may be vani-
dosh, you may have to suffer huge losses due to wrong decision-making or being
deceived. Your siblings may also leave your side.� As a remedy, wear a steel or
iron ring in this finger - the ring must be fully round with no breaks. Throw a
small empty earthen pot in water for 11 Wednesdays. Pay for the piercing of the
nose for your wife, father's sister, or your daughter and gift them something made
of silver. Worship Ma Durga. Be in the guidance of Guru. Don't criticize others and
don't eat sour things. Mahadasha of Jupiter: If a line from the life line goes
upwards or if the mount of Jupiter is slightly raised or if the Jupiter finger is
straight - not bent sideways, then it shows a positive Jupiter. During its phase
you can expect some big awards, you can get a good Guru, you may get a very high
level job or you may rise very high in your field of work - like a leader, you may
become a high level advisor, you may have great success. However, there is a
downside - your marital relationships become weak. You may also experience problems
with your stomach and weight. Despite everything, Jupiter makes you very
knowledgeable and turns you into a leader in one way or the other. If your mount of
Jupiter is flat and there are crosses on it or if the tip of the Jupiter finger is
leaning towards the Saturn finger. This is a bad sign. It can even finish your
marital life as it causes your relationships to break. You may not be able to study
well. You may be the target of blame at your workplace. If there was a raj-yog in
your birthchart, then its affects are diminished. Stomach, body pain and throat
related disease won't cure easily. You may not get a good Guru - even if the Guru
comes and stands in front of you, you may end up disrespecting him or neglecting
due to your mindset or ego. You will have a problem getting love from your father.
You may get some diseases due to the kind of foods you eat.� As a remedy, you can
donate gram/chana dal, khaand (Indian sugar), "kaansa", yellow sapphire, gold,
ghee, yellow cloth, yellow flowers, turmeric, books, horse and yellow fruits. Such
people should also do a proper vrat/fast on Thursdays. They should also do rudra-
abhishek. You can also wear 5 rudraaksh. Care for a cow and be in the guidance of a
Guru. Mahadasha of Venus: � If Venus mount has a nice angle, the lines from this
area don't go drop in the ditch of Rahu, there are not many crossing lines on the
mount, then it shows a positive Venus. Such individuals get love from women - as in
women help such an individual to a great extent. A positive Venus will make one
live in a home that is in the midst of a lot of greenery or the home will have many
plants. A person with positive Venus can establish his own religion and gets great
respect. The peson body becomes more beautiful and the person feels like wearing
more gold. An extremely good Venus allows one to receive love from animals and
birds and they think they can understand the language of these creatures.� A net
on the mount of Venus shows that you may have problems in the reproductive organs.
There may also be skin related problems. The homes of such people do get burgled at
some point. One has to suffer a lot due to individuals of the opposite sex. As a
remedy, give food to women and do paath of durga-sapt-shati. Read this post for
more on Venus. Mahadasha of Saturn: If the mount of moon is not too raised or flat.
If the life-line goes up to this mount and is divided into 3 parts, then it shows a
very positive Saturn. This shows that you will get a lot of wealth and property.
Your mind will become very sharp. You may establish your business during Saturn's
phase. You can also make many friends in different parts of the world. You also get
to own a car during this phase. There may be great enhancements in one's industrial
ventures, investments, or any political work. One gets a chance to go abroad and
earn a good reputation there. However, if it is negative, then there may be a lot
of instability and you may have to go through many kinds of problems. It may even
cause your marital life to be disturbed. It will cause you mood swings and may
cause you inflict some losses to yourself. You may love a lot, but at the same time
think if you may be loving too much. You may take some intoxicating substances and
make some bad friends. Your laziness may cause you to not succeed much. This phase
may cause you to change homes, jobs, or businesses. You may not be able to make use
of what you studied. You may get some wealth from some new study, but not what you
may have studied in the past. It may cause problems to your stomach and nerves.
This causes a lot of problems to family members. A negative Saturn may also cause
you to become lonely at some point due to your own behavior. You may have gotten
rid of the good people in your life and others won't come to help you. As a remedy,
become spiritual in the true sense. Stop being lazy and become more calm. Drink
more water. Light a candle by the peepal tree on Sundays. Never do or even think of
scheming others. Help the needy, respect the elders and stay away from the color
black. Mahadasha of Rahu: If there is no ditch in the middle of your palm, then
Rahu makes you a very intelligent person. It will make you very technical, provide
you success in politics, make you good in weaponry and ancient text. It can even
make you a Guru.� However, if there is a ditch in the palm, then it can give you
death-like problems and you'll become afraid getting into accidents. Investments
will cause you losses. Your married life will become unstable and will make you
cause some loss to yourself. You may start taking intoxicating substances, get into
bad company of friends, your nerves and stomach will cause you a lot of discomfort,
As a remedy, throw a tiny bit of Mercury into flowing river. Care for young girls
(less than 8 years old) and donate some cloth that can be used to protect cows from
the cold.Throw a coconut in flowing water on Saturdays and donate a goat on a
Saturday. Mahadasha of Ketu: If your mount of Ketu is raised, then it will be very
beneficial for you. If it's negative, then it will cause the same problems as a bad
Mars.
