If the Lords of Major Period and the sub-period are friends between themselves and/or standing in quadrants/trines of each other, the sub-period will yield fruitful results. If they happen to be enemies and/or standing in 6, 8 or 12th, malefic results flow. Generally speaking, the Major Period of Lord Ascendant is considered broadly benefic. So also, the Major Period of Lord of the Moon sign, and the Major Period operating at the time of birth. For predicting the Major Period effects, treat the sign occupied by lord of the major period as the Ascendant for the time being, and see what planets occupy the 12 houses therefrom and shape your predictions accordingly. A strong benefic in 10th is bound to improve profession, a strong benefic in 5th may award a son and a strong Venus in 7th of the lord of major period, may cause the native's marriage. Effects arising as a result of lord of major period's relation with various Yogas should also be taken into account. Major Period effects are also subject to the significations of the lord of the major period, the country in which the native may be living and the age/century in which the native thrives and whether the native is a boy/youth/adult. During the currency of a benefic's major period, a native in already prosperous circumstances would be enjoying Raja Yoga or kingly life; for a native born in poverty, under identical circumstances, there may be birth of a son. Birth of a son in the good old days was considered to be the most auspicious. The author seems to throw a hint that the effect of a Raja Yoga held by a major period lord would result in the birth of son during such major period for a native in ordinary circumstances and that the same Yoga would confer Raja Yoga and Raja Bhoga for one already in affluent circumstances. Death has to be considered in the sub-periods of lords of 2nd and 7th in the major period of lord of 8th; more so, if lord of 8th is a malefic. The major periods of lords of 8th and 12th are malefic; more so, if the 8th/12th is also occupied by a malefic. In such major periods, the sub-periods of lords of 2nd/7th cause death of a native. The malefic effects concerning the 6th house will be suffered by the native during the major period of lord of 6th, if the 6th in birth chart is not occupied by lord of 6, 8 or 12. Death of mother and father has to be thought of in major periods of lords of 4th/9th respectively. If these major period lords are just nominally malefic, instead of death, there will be diseases, ailments, dissensions and losses. -2-

Major Period effects should to be adjusted directly in proportion to the strength of the lord of a house. There will be changes in environments or death in the sub-period of a planet in the 6th/8th of lord of major period. Loss of luck and even life is possible in the major period or sub-period of lord of 12th in conjunction with a malefic. If lords of 6th and 7th are together in one sign, in their major periods, there will be loss of pleasure and increased number of enemies. In the major period or sub-period of the dispositor of Mars, if malefic, there will be loss of the effects of the house(s) owned by the dispositor of Mars. In the major of malefics in 6, 8 or 12, aspected also by malefic, there will be troubles of various sorts, including death. Major Period effects, as a whole, have to be delineated after taking into account all the benefic and malefic aspects, and Yogas with which the lord of major period may be connected with.
