Analysis:
The analysis is done and shown on the right side of the window based on
Predefined planet, cusps and also user selected planets, cusps and DBAS.

In the above image, the first three rows have the analysis made using
predefined rules based on the event selected in Data window.

The different columns has the information as explained below:

(a) Object: P indicates the analysis of a planet. A number (Cusp
number) indicates the analysis of the corresponding cuspal sub
lord. Dasa, Bhukti, Antara and Sookshma are the DBAS selected by
user from Dasa data.
(b) SubL: In case of Object = P, then the SubL has the planet
itself. In case of DBAS also, the planet itself is used. Whereas
In case of Cusp, the sub lord is used to analysis.
(c) +H (Positive Houses): This is based on the event, the planet, CSL
and DBAS should signify these positive houses for the event to be
favourable. This column gives list of cusps separated by comma.
(d) -H (Negative Houses): This is based on the event, the planet, CSL
and DBAS should not signify these negative houses for the event to
be favourable. This column gives list of cusps separated by comma.
(e) Y/N : This column will have Two letters. The first indicate Y if
the object signifies the positive houses and N if do not signify
the positive houses. The second letter indicates Y if the object
signifies and N if the object does not signify the negative
houses. Please note the difference between first and second
character. The Favourable result is shown with Green; Less
favourable with light green and not favourable with red.
(f) Last column: The header of this column shows the event selected,
the date, time and kph horary number just for the reference. This
column has the detailed analysis of the object. For more
information on how this analysis made and the signification of the
symbols used, see below an example.
In the above image, Let us understand how the analysis is done for 4th
cusp:
1st CSL is Mo; Mo is in 7th house and lord of 11th house.
Mo (1st CSL) star lord Ke is in 10. Because it is a node, consider
conj and aspects.
Mo (1st CSL) sub lord Su is in 11th and lord of 12.
No planets are in the star of Mo and Mo is sub lord of 1.
Altogether 1st CSL Mo signifies: 1, 7, 10, 11, 12.

Based on the selection of the DBAS (in Analysis Page), The selected DBAS
and its period is updated here:

The user can always modify the period if required or select another DBAS
from Analysis Page (Click on Analysis tab).
The basic parameters for transit analysis are:
(a) Transit of planet(s): To determine the event time, it is required
(1) DBAS should agree (2) Transit of Jupiter, if the event time is
in few years (3) Transit of Sun, if the transit is within one year
(4) Transit of Moon, if the transit is within 27 days (5) Transit
of Lagna, if the transit is within few days.
Select/unselect Lagna, Moon, Sun and Jupiter.

(b) Transit of planet as a Day lord, Rasi lord, Star lord and Sub
lord. Based on the above selection of Lagna/Moon/Sun, First find
the period when the sun day lord, rasi lord, star lord, sub lord (
As selected above) must be one of the 3 planets selected as most
significant planets. Once this period is found, find the Moon
transit within this suns period. Then find Lagna transit within
Moons period.

The above calculates all the transit points and the sensitive points (The
period that agree with significant planets) are indicated by =>.
By default, if any sensitive point available, the first sensitive point
in the list is selected. If there is no significant point available, the
first transit point will be displayed.
The user can always select another transit point. This may or may not be
a sensitive point (May agree with some of the significant planets).
As soon as another transit point is selected in Sun, then the
corresponding Moon and Lagna transits are recalculated for this selected
period. As soon as another transit point is selected in Moon, then the
corresponding Lagna transits are recalculated for this selected period.
As soon as one transit point is selected in Lagna, then the corresponding
starting date and time is selected as Event date and time and the
corresponding Transit chart is displayed in the right side of the window.

The user can modify the date and time to fine tune the event time and the
transit chart is updated automatically as the date or time is modified.
The Ruling planets of the transit chart are displayed in the middle part
of the south Indian style chart.
Note: Analyse the chart manually for more detailed analysis.
