It’s worthwhile to mention here that one cannot experience the Mahadasha of all the planets throughout their lifetime since the Vimshottari Dasha follows a 120-year time cycle. Human life expectancy is currently, on average, less than half of what it was in the past. The degree to which the Moon was in the Nakshatra at the moment of birth determines how much the first Dasha (period) lowers. Every planet’s Mahadasha contains Antardasha, or the divisional locations (Dasha) of other planets. The planet of Mahadasha has the first Antardasha. For example, the Antardasha will always begin with the Sun if it is in Mahadasha. This is followed by the Antardasha sequence for the other planets. In keeping with this idea, the Dasha is further subdivided into what is called a Pratyantar Dasha, and this way, we can also reach on a daily or hourly basis.
