One method for predicting an event is to follow
the transits of the dasha lord. See this quote from sage Mantreshwara
in the Phaladeepika:
"During the several periods over which a Dasha may
continue, the good or bad effect is to be ascertained after
referring to the particular house reckoned from the Moon, which
the lord of the Dasha may occupy during the course of its progress
through its orbit." Phaladeepika Ch 20 verse 60.
In this quote sage Mantreshwara emphasizes watching the dasha
lords transit with reference to the Moon or chandra lagna, however,
transits should also be seen from the ascendant. An extension
of the above principle is to also follow the transits to
the dasha lord by other planets.
Here's an example chart of a man whose son was born while Jupiter
was transiting over his mahadasha lord, Venus, during his Ven-Mer-Jup
dasha. In this case Jupiter's transit is both a transit of
the sub sub dasha lord (pratyantar dasha lord) as well a transit
to the mahadasha lord, Venus.
Natal Chart
He has Scorpio lagna with Jupiter being a multiple significator
for children. Jupiter rules his 5th house, representing childbirth,
from the lagna. Jupiter also rules the 9th house from the Moon,
which is the 5th house from the 5th house, making it another
house of childbirth according to the principle of bhavat bhavam.
From Jupiter's placement in the sign of Virgo it also aspects
the 5th house from the lagna (Pisces) which is also the 9th
house from the Moon. Furthermore, Jupiter is also the karaka
or significator of the 5th house for any ascendant.
At the time of his son's birth, Jupiter was transiting through
the 5th house from the Moon, and transiting over Venus, the
mahadasha lord, which triggered the event of childbirth. Saturn
was also transiting through Aquarius putting the double
transit of Jupiter and Saturn in the sign of Scorpio, which
is the 5th house from the Moon further reinforcing that this
was the timing for the birth of his son.
