The major period is ruled by Ketu (02-01-2023 to 02-01-2030). Within it, the Rahu sub-period adds a more immediate emphasis. The current finer period is governed by Mercury. Dasha results are interpreted together with natal house ownership, placement and strength; the period name alone is not a prediction.
