I recently learned how yo calculate Ishta and Kashta Phala and how that shows you weather or not a planet will give good results during its Dasha. I have a quick question about that ill get back to, but first, since IP and KP cannot be calculated for Rahu and Ketu, how do I judge those Dashas?
My Ketu dasha isnt until 20 years from,now as next year I will begin Mercury Dasha. But im curious to know for other charts as I noticed my father actually got married during his Ketu dasha which I think is unique as most things I've read about rahu/ketu dashas, espevilly ketu is that they are not good. My dad however has ketu in his 7 house so kinda makes sense it would bring marriage, although odd still as ketu in 7 sometimes prevents it from,even occurring.
My other question is, that I read IP and KP simply tell you how easy or difficult it will be to receive positive results from planets during their period, but other yogas are what determine its final out come.
For me, the planet with lowest IP score is Jupiter with a score of 7. I was born during Jupiter Dasha though and the first 10 years of my life (the length of my Jupiter dasha) were amazing. I had the most wonderful childhood.
The reason Jupiters score is so low is because it is within 1 degree conjunction to my Sun, so combust. Abd in enemy sign, Taurus, still pretty far from exaltation. But it gets the most points from it getting close to exaltation. Jupiter makes no other aspects in my chart besides the conjunction to my Sun. So I guess the "final outcome" being conjunction to my sun shows positive? As im Aries ASC so Jupiter and Sun are benefic for me. But during that time period, many positive blessings came my way with such ease. There was absolutely no struggle. Which seems contradictory to Jupiter's IP score.
However here's where it doesbt make sense. Saturn is actually the only planet in my chart more than,1 sign away from my Sun. ALL of my planets cluster around my Sun in 1-3 houses. Saturn opposes 3 of my 3rd house planets, Mars, Venus, Moon from the 9th house.
This also means i have partial KAL Sarp Yoga. Rahu in 11, Ketu in 5, all planets in 1-3 house except saturn in 9th. Saturn is onnly planet outside this yoga.
But since saturn opposes so many of my planets, its final outcome of its Dasha should be negative yes?
Well Saturn is the planet with the highest IP score because it is so far from my Sun and not far from Exaltation either. (67 degrees from exact Exaltation ) so I am completing Saturn Dasha now abd it has been the most difficult life imaginable. Coming from such a wonderful child hood things just went down hill fast. Probably because as soon as my Saturn Dasha began, when I was 11, my Safe Satti began at age 13. That was hell on earth for me- those 7 years. Then things didn't get better at all until Saturn/Mars Dasha when I was 23. Saturn,opposes Mars in my chart though so I don't really get how that is where things started to turn positive but they did improve greatly after age 23. Maybe as I was getting far away from the downfall of Sadr Satti.
And although things have continued to improve since then, however slowly and with their share of many dissapoibtments still ( the hardships I've had the past 5 years are so small compared to what I went thru before that now I feel lucky) I still feel like this time period has been very...not fruitful.
I guess IP and KP aren't really that significant? The yogas are much more important then?
I will go thru my Saturn Return soon which im looking forward too since I think making peace with saturn energy is what I need to possibly escape my partial kal sarp yoga.
Its interesting too, because the week my saturn return is exact is the same week my Dasha changes from Saturn to mercury (in jan 2019)
Mercury has a medium IP score of 22, and it is actually the best aspected planet of my chart. Even though I know, as Aries ASC mercury rules 3 and 6 so its malefic. But it doesn't feel malefic to me. As its in my 1 house, in mutual reception to my 7 lord Venus and textile to my 1 lord Mars. And it rules my Punarvasu Gemini Moon and Mars and my Ardra Venus of course.
So any advice on this is helpful. Maybe the Dasha of Rahu and Ketu would be judged from the scores of their ruling planets? What about final outcomes? Would those be indicated by the aspects their depositor makes or by the actual aspects Rahu and Ketu make?
Just curious because my Rahu is Saturn ruled, Ketu Sun ruled. So I don't want my Rahu Dasha to be a repeat of my Saturn one! Although Rahu Dasha I don't really need to worry about as it would occur when im in my 90s anyway. But Rahu AntarDasha of course occurs.
But just curious about any ones knowledge on this? Thanks.
