Let's Learn Dashas! A Vedic Astrology Study Group

Let’s get together for a discussion about the Dasha system of Vedic Astrology. This is a continuing series of meetings covering interpretation of Vimsottari Dashas, and we are using free texts (see below) available online to help us organize topics and structure our discussions. This is a study group and everyone can prepare for each meeting using their own additional sources & please share with the group any sources about the Dasha System you’ve found helpful.

This meeting’s topics cover rules for interpreting Dasha results and also Yoga karakas. Suggested readings are BPHS Ch 34 and Dasha Phal Chapters 13-15. See links to the free texts below!

Brihat Parashara Hora Shastra, (R. Santhanam translation) Ch 34
"Dasha Phal" Free PDF: Prediction Through Dasha System Ch 13-15
As always use whichever source(s) you prefer!

If you are new to the Dasha concept, you might want to familiarize yourself with “what is a dasha?” and "what is a yoga?" before tackling the readings.
