The major period is ruled by Rahu (30-12-2017 to 31-12-2035). Within it, the Mercury 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.
