Read life-period dates as part of a declared method, then separate them from predictions.
How to read your current Dasha

Read the period names first
Dasha means a period in an astrological timing system. In Nakshatra’s Vimshottari timeline, Mahadasha is the larger period and Antardasha is a period within it. Note both planet names and the displayed start and end dates before reading the interpretation.
Understand what is calculated
Nakshatra starts its Vimshottari sequence from the Moon’s birth nakshatra and position within it. Its full period lengths form a 120-year cycle. The implementation uses a 365.2425-day year. Other implementations expose different year or calculation options, so matching names alone does not guarantee matching dates.

A boundary is not an event promise
A calculated period boundary does not establish a date for a job, marriage, or setback. Read an interpretation as a possible traditional theme. Ask what evidence was used, what is uncertain, and whether the reflection fits your actual circumstances. Choose an action you can assess yourself.
