The major period is ruled by Rahu (04-01-2015 to 03-01-2033). Within it, the Ketu 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.
