Timing

1. Events usually happen during the significator periods of the Dasas and Bhukti, and when the transit agrees.

2. At the time of the event, Sun, Moon, and/or Dasa period rulers are usually found to be transiting:

In the Star or Sub of the same Dasa Lords, such as in the Star or Sub of the Mahadasha, Bhukti,
Pratyantardasha, and/or Sookshma period lords.
In the Star of the significator (planetary significator) of that event (other than the joint period rulers) in the
Horoscope."

The Mother of the native passed away on November 1, 1923 at about 2:00 PM IST, during the dasa of
Ke/Ve/Ra/Ju. At the time the Sun was transiting 15 Libra 21' in the Star of the Pratyantardasha Lord
(Rahu). Moon was at 08 Cancer 49' transiting in the Sub of Bhukti Lord Venus; Ketu was posited at 15
Aquarius 32 in Pratyantardasa Lord Rahu's Star; Venus was transiting 28 Libra 46' in the Star of Sookshma
Lord Jupiter; Rahu was transiting 15 Leo 32' in the Star of Venus, and Jupiter was transiting 02 Scorpio 08'
in its own Star.

The Father of the native passed away on October 1, 1955 at 7:30 PM IST during the dasa of Su/Ve/Sa/Ju.
At that time the Sun was transiting 14 Virgo 29' in the Sub of the Sookshma Period Lord, Jupiter while Moon
 was transiting in 11 Pisces 30' in the Pratyantardasa Lord's Star of Saturn. Venus was transiting 22 Virgo
37' in the Sub of Bhukti Lord, Venus; and Saturn was transiting 25 Libra 27' in the Star of Sookshma Lord,
Jupiter.

Information on Transits and Charts and What to Expect:

1. Transit in Stars: Saturn transits in one Star for approximately 13 months. Rahu/Ketu transit in one Star for
about 8 months. Jupiter transits in one Star for about 5 months and 10 days; Mars transits in one Star for about
20 days; Mercury and Venus are not very uniform in their in their motion, so tracking must be checked for them.
The Sun is very regular in motion and stays in one star for about 13 days, while Moon stays put in one Star for
about 24 hours.

Transit in Subs: Saturn, while transiting through one star, will remain in one sub for many weeks. Rahu,
Ketu, and Jupiter remain in one sub for many days. The Sun remains in one sub for anywhere from 1 to 3
days, and the Moon remains in one sub for approximately 3 hours.

2. Observe the influence of the transiting planets every year - most especially the transits of Saturn because it is
always of a longer duration. If the transits of Rahu, Ketu, and Jupiter coincide or cross paths with the influence of
Saturn, there is a greater possibility of a particular event/occurrence.

What is not indicated in the Natal Chart cannot be expected to materialize in full or to the desired extent,
during the period of the transiting planets. If it is supported in the Natal Chart, it holds more promise.
It is generally a smart practice is to observe the effects of the transits in relation to the dasas that are
running, as outlined above in this tutorial.

3. The point, is to get you to pay attention to the cumulative influence of the slow moving planets in transit, such
as, Saturn, Rahu, Ketu, Jupiter, (Uranus, Neptune, and Pluto also, if your preference is to include these in your
assessments). Closely observe their effects during the time frame of anywhere from 5 to 13 months at a time,
and familiarize yourself with their positions.

In the Natal Chart, some planets are the significators of marriage (2nd, 7th, and 11th), some are
significators of money (2nd, 6th, and 11th); some are significators of loss of money (8th and 12th); some
are significators of sickness (6th, 8th, and 12th), some are significators of career/occupation (2nd, 6th, and
10th), and so on. The stronger the significators are, the greater the possibility of their results materializing
during a particular year under review...but you won't know this unless you familiarize yourself with the
positions of the planets.
Example: Suppose all of the above transiting planets are simultaneously moving in the stars for the
significators of money (like the 2nd, 6th, and 11th), and also simultaneously moving in the Subs connected
with the 2nd, 6th, and 11th in the Natal Chart. It is then that they become coincided with one another in
their respective ability to influence these specific matters. So your monetary condition may then improve
during this part of the year. Now, consider the same scenario with the above transiting planets moving in
the Subs or connected with the 8th or 12th houses instead of the 2nd, 6th, or 11th houses of the Birth
Chart. In this scenario, it is likely that you will lose money, be short of cash, or you may have heavy
expenditures that need to be addressed at this time. So when this situation arises in any particular month,
you will find that the Sun might be transiting in the Star or Sub of the significator of the 2nd, 6th, or 11th
OR transiting in the Star or Sub of the 8th or 12th of the Natal Chart, whatever the case may be. To further
elaborate, if the above situation happens to occur on a particular day, the Moon may be transiting in the
Star or Sub of the significator of the 2nd, 6th, 11th, OR the 8th or12th.
Now suppose the above transiting planets are moving in the Stars of the 2nd, 6th, and 11th during a
particular year under consideration, but their Star Lords remain in retrograde motion for a certain length of
time. If this is the case, it will not be possible to expect any desired result/outcome until these Star Lords
revert back to direct motion. This type of scenario is even more pronounced if these planets are in the Subs
of retrograde planets.
