When the birth time is accurate the divisional charts, or vargas,
can be relied upon to give deeper insights into the nature of
a dasha period. This is a chart of a woman who began her 20
year mahadasha of Venus in 2002. Since that time she has become
very interested in healing work, particularly hands-on energy
healing. Notice how Venus is the 8th lord, the house of subtle
life force, prana, and transformation, and conjunct Rahu a planet
of subtle energy.
This interest in healing is reinforeced in both the navamsha
chart, the most important divisional chart (9th division), and
the dashamsha chart, related to career (10th division). In the
navamsha chart, Venus is again the 8th lord, conjunct the Sun,
the significator of the body, and 6th lord of healing, while
also being aspected by the 10th lord of career, Jupiter. This
pattern repeats in the dashamsha chart with Venus, the 8th lord
again, in the 6th house with Jupiter, the 10th lord, who exchanges
signs with the 6th lord Sun.
By consulting the divisional charts we are able to gain more
confidence in our initial interpretation of the natal chart.
For this reason, it is always recommended that no predictions
should be made without consulting at least the Navamsha chart,
and preferably other divisional charts relevant to the queries
at hand, as well. For instance, for career questions, the dashamsha
chart is consulted in addition to the Navamsha and Rasi charts,
as shown in this example.
