The major period is ruled by Rahu (11-11-2009 to 11-11-2027). Within it, the Moon sub-period adds a more immediate emphasis. The current finer period is governed by Ketu. Dasha results are interpreted together with natal house ownership, placement and strength; the period name alone is not a prediction.
