If a benefic planet occupies the aforesaid positions, one should predict happiness and well-being. If a benefic planet is situated in a Kendra (angular house), it bestows gains and victory over enemies.
The results of each Rāśi Daśā should be predicted after carefully considering both the planetary positions at the time of birth and the effects of the transiting planets.
The effects of the Dasha will be favourable, if it is occupied by a benefic and there is also a benefic in the Rāśi previous to it. If the Rāśi is occupied by a malefic, the effects will be of adverse nature.
त्रिकोणरन्ध्ररिष्फस्थैः शुभपापैः शुभाऽशुभम् । तद्दशायां च वक्तव्यं फलं दैवविदा सदा ॥ १९॥
If there are benefics in Putr and Dharm, the effects of its Dasha will be favourable. The reverse will be the case, if Putr and Dharm are occupied by malefics.
मेषकर्कतुलानक्रराशीनां च यथाक्रमम् । बाधा स्तानानि सम्प्रोक्ता कुभगोसिंहवृश्चिकाः ॥ २०॥
Kumbh, Vrishabh, Simh and Vrischik are Badhak Bhavas for the four Movable Rāśis: Mesh, Kark, Tula and Makar. In other words the 11th Rāśi to a Movable Rāśi is its Badhak Bhava.
