In dasha prediction, every event has two elements: quantitative results (such as the amount gained) and qualitative results (benefic or malefic effects). The quantitative result depends on the strength of the planet concerned. Maharshi Parashar describes different states (avasthas) to assess a planet's ability to render results, mainly Deeptadi Avastha and Baladi Avastha.
Deeptadi Avastha includes nine states:
Baladi Avastha relates to the planet's degrees in signs and is divided into six states of 6 degrees each. For odd signs:
For even signs, the order is reversed:
A planet's results vary according to these states.
Deeptadi and Baladi Avasthas play a crucial role in determining the outcomes of planetary periods in an individual's life. By analyzing these states, astrologers can provide more precise predictions related to both the quantitative and qualitative aspects during a dasha period. Deeptadi Avastha particularly helps in understanding the nature of the results, whether they will be beneficial or challenging, while Baladi Avastha focuses on the different life stages of a planet and its influence based on its degree in a sign.
Daily Remedy: To harness the potential benefits of Deeptadi and Baladi Avasthas, regularly observe the planetary positions in your birth chart and align your personal plans with anticipated periods of growth indicated by favorable avasthas.
