Types of Planetary Results in Vedic Astrology

In Vedic astrology, the results during a planet's sub-period (Antardasha) depend on the Karakatva (significations) of the house lords. There are six types of results a planet can render during its major period (Mahadasha):

  1. Anugunaja Result:

    • Based on the planet's position in a house, association with other planets, or their aspects.
  2. Yogaja Result:

    • Due to mutual relationships between planets, which include the exchange of signs (Parivartana Yoga), aspect relationships (Drishti Sambandha), combined house position and aspect, and conjunction or aspect in the same sign (Yuti Sambandha).
    • Examples include Mars and Saturn exchanging signs and aspecting each other, or multiple planets conjunct in one house.
  3. Sahayaj Phala:

    • Results from planets positioned in angles (Kendra), trines (Trikona), Trishadaya houses (3rd, 6th, 11th), Triekadasha, Shadashta, or Dwi-dwadash houses.
  4. Drishtij Phala:

    • Results from planets aspecting each other.
  5. Mitaj Phala:

    • Results from planets conjunct in one house.

Each planet gives these six types of results during its Mahadasha.

Classification of House Lords in Vimshottari Dasha

Maharshi Parashara's classification of house lords in Vimshottari Dasha is as follows:

  • Lords of trine houses (1st, 5th, 9th) give positive outcomes regardless of whether they are naturally auspicious or challenging.

    • Natural benefics include Jupiter, Venus, Shukla Paksha Moon, and Mercury conjoined with other benefics.
    • Natural malefics include Saturn, Mars, Rahu, Ketu, Moon during Krishna Paksha (from 5th Tithi to Amavasya), and Mercury conjoined with challenging planets.
  • Lords of Trishadaya houses (3rd, 6th, 11th) tend to present obstacles, whether naturally auspicious or challenging.

  • Natural benefics may not yield favorable outcomes if they are lords of Kendra houses (1st, 4th, 7th, 10th).

  • Natural malefics may not result in adverse outcomes if they are lords of Kendra.

This classification guides the interpretation of Vimshottari Dasha results based on the planetary lordship and their natural benefic or challenging nature.
