Key themes
Synthesis · Natal promise · Varga · Gochar · Agreement of factors
This is where the layers of the Knowledge Centre come together. A Dasha should be interpreted against the relevant natal and divisional charts rather than on its own.
The governing principle is simple: the Dasha provides timing; it does not independently create a promise that has no support in the horoscope.

Dasha and transit (Gochar) are not the same
Dasha identifies the planetary periods traditionally considered active for the native. Gochar represents the current movement of planets through the zodiac.
A disciplined interpretation looks for agreement among the natal promise, the relevant Varga, the Dasha, the Antardasha and the transit — rather than making a prediction merely because Saturn or Jupiter is currently transiting a particular sign.
