The planetary order follows the same sequence mentioned above. The dasa cycle flows from the point of the ruling planet. for example, a native with Rohini Nakshatra begins their life from Moon Mahadasha, followed by Mars, Rahu, Jupiter, and so on. One complete dasa cycle is a time period of 120years.

Dasa has subdivisions called Bhukthi or Antardashas. Bhukthi holds detailed information about specific life events and their occurrence in a native’s life. Bhukthi also follows the same planetary sequence of Sun, Moon, Mars, Rahu, Jupiter, Saturn, Mercury, Ketu, and Venus.

To Calculate The Period Of Bhukti During a Mahadasha, 

Mahadasha of the Planet
———————————X period of the antardasha planet = Antardasha period (in years)
120 years

For example, Antardasha of planet Sun in Mahadasha of Moon will be 10 years x 6 years divided by 120 years = 0.5 years i.e. 6 months.
Antardasha of Planet Jupiter in Mahadasha of Sun will be= 6years x 16years divided by 120 years=, 9months and 6days.

What is the Significance?

  • Dasa and Bhukthis are highly influenced by Moon signs, the houses and Yogas, and Drishti- aspects in the natal chart. Dasa and Bhukthi of the lord of the ascendant – nakshatra ruler is a time period of self-discovery, building a deeper sense of self, surroundings, and character. This is one of the reasons why the first planetary Mahadasa plays a significant role in shaping an individual physically and mentally. 
  • The life of a native is unfolded based on the houses aspected or transited by the Dasa and Bhukthi planets from ascendant and natal moon signs. Events associated with those houses manifest during that particular dasa period. 
  • Dasa and Bhukthi of strongly placed planets- planets in their own sign, exalted or with directional strength (kendras) help the native achieve great heights of their life and brings out the innate capabilities. 
  • Various combinations of planets in DasaBhukti help us predict the exact future of the native. For instance, Dasa and/or Bhukti lord transiting to the 9th house from the ascendant Moon-sign usually results in happy and auspicious events like marriage, childbirth, etc. 
  • Dasa Bhukti and the transits of the Dasa and Bhukti lords can be utilized to predict a specific event like marriage and job change in life and zero in on the time of fructification of the specific event.
