DASHA-03)Codified in Brihat Parashara Hora Shastra Chapter 49 & Rudrayamala Tantra and Hora Ratnam & Jataka Desha Marga, Yogini Dasha (36-Year Cycle) operates under the mathematical invariant 36 Years (1+2+3+4+5+6+7+8) ; Formula: (Nakshatra + 3) mod 8: Yogini Dasha compresses the predictive cycle into 36 years governed by eight Tantric Yoginis whose durations follow the exact arithmetic series 1 through 8 years: Mangala (1y, Moon), Pingala (2y, Sun), Dhanya (3y, Jupiter), Bhramari (4y, Mars), Bhadrika (5y, Mercury), Ulka (6y, Saturn), Siddha (7y, Venus), and Sankata (8y, Rahu/Ketu).
SHASTRIC MECHANICSMathematical Formulation & Structural Rules of Yogini Dasha (36-Year Cycle)
To identify the birth Yogini, the astronomer takes the serial number of the Moon's natal Nakshatra from Ashwini (1 to 27), adds 3, and divides the sum by 8; the remainder (1 through 7, with 0 corresponding to 8 Sankata) gives the starting Yogini. Because the entire eight-stage cycle repeats every 36 years, three times within a 108-year lifespan, sub-periods (Antardashas) span only weeks to a few months, offering surgical temporal resolution.
