Planets are considered as benefics or malefics by their nature as well as association.
| Benefic Planets | Venus, Jupiter, Mercury and waxing Moon | | Malefic Planets | Sun, Saturn, Mars and waning Moon |
Here one should understand that Moon from 8th Lunar day Shuklapaksha (Waxing Moon) to 8th Lunar day of Krishna Paksha (waning Moon) is benefic in quality and it becomes a malefic from 8th day of Krishna Paksha to 8th Lunar day of Shukla Paksha. If Mercury happens to be with a malefic it also becomes Malefic.
The strength of a planet is determined by its six fold strength or Shadbala. Complex mathematical calculations are used to determine these strengths. | 1 | Sthanabala or positional strength | | 2 | Dikbala or Directional strength | | 3 | Kalabala or Temporal strength | | 4 | Chestabala or Motional strength | | 5 | Naisargikabala or Permanent strength | | 6 | Drikbala or Aspect strength |
The assessment of these strengths is useful in predicting the longevity, various aspects of life and results based on the Dasa System.
