Order of Sub Periods
The order of sub-periods in the major period of each rashi is decided according to the same principles as given for major period: it will be indirect order or the direct one, depending upon the rashi whose major period is running.
But there is one very important departure in the order of sub-periods from the order of major periods: here each rashi takes its own sub-period last and not first. For instance the sub-period of Aries in the major period of Aries will be the last. On this basis the following table is being given:
Aries : Taurus, Gemini, Cancer, Leo, Virgo, Libra,
(Direct) Scorpio, Sagittarius, Capricorn, Aquarius, Pisces and Aries. (Note: Aries comes last and not first).
Taurus : Aries, Pisces, Aquarius, Capricorn, Sagittarius, Scorpio, Libra, (Indirect) Virgo, Leo, Cancer, Gemini and Taurus.
Gemini : Taurus, Aries, Pisces, Aquarius, Capricorn, Sagittarius, Scorpio, (Indirect) Libra, Virgo, Leo, Cancer and Gemini.
Cancer : Gemini, Taurus, Aries, Pisces, Aquarius, Capricorn, Sagittarius, (Indirect) Scorpio, Libra, Virgo, Leo and Cancer.
Leo : Virgo, Libra, Scorpio, Sagittarius, Capricorn, Aquarius, Pisces, (Direct) Aries, Taurus, Gemini, Cancer and Leo.
Virgo : Libra, Scorpio, Sagittarius, Capricorn, Aquarius, Pisces, Aries, (Direct) Taurus, Gemini, Cancer, Leo and Virgo.
Libra : Scorpio, Sagittarius, Capricorn, Aquarius, Pisces, Aries, Taurus, (Direct) Gemini, Cancer, Leo, Virgo and Libra.
Scorpio : Libra, Virgo, Leo, Cancer, Gemini, Taurus, Arises, Pisces, (Indirect) Aquarius, Capricorn and Sagittarius.
Sagittarius : Scorpio, Libra, Virgo, Leo, Cancer, Gemini, Taurus, Aries, Pisces, (Indirect) Aquarius, and Capricorn.
