From Albert, : Canada

"Mark, I'd like to talk about how to look at both the transits and the other parts of our charts, which you keep mentioning. For me, I have been noticing ever since you did my chart, just how much my emotion is due to my small Moon in my chart.  So, I'm wondering how much is what I'm going through due to the Moon's movements and how much my dasas, or even chart?  For example, normally whenever I'm sad I start thinking who's responsible for this? 
Then, I'll try to find them and have it out with them.  I'm wondering how to figure this out?"

"Albert:  Very good question.  Well as we talked on the phone, in your chart, your Moon was smallish in your birth chart, so it is good to notice that you do get very affected by whatever the Moon's doing in the Transits.  That's why I suggest that you spend, like you have these last few months, sorting this out.  Now, the other point you mention is that you get angry, and look for someone to blame why you're feeling rough and sad, right? 
Well, this is where we need to understand our charts.  With your Mars in the first house, it's in a classic place for 'blaming'.  So, whenever you find yourself 'blaming' remember "Ah, that's my Mars in the first, and my tender Moon's that feeling rough because of this or that Transit!
Finally, don't forget to look at your Dasas.  Because since you're in this minor period of  Moon you'll tend to be more emotional during this 4 month Moon period."

"Mark:  So what are we supposed to do, I mean how do we bear it, these shifts, and such?"

"Albert:  Well, what I've learned is that the Dasas periods tend to be related, Karmically, to the quality of those planets in our Charts.  So, because your Moon, 'WAS' small at birth, it can tend to represent the karma of that tender Moon during your Dasa periods. However there's another way at looking at our dasas and that's the fact that during these periods we can not only suffer the karma that our Moon was in at our birth; but another way is to realize that this up-coming malefic Moon period can also be about a Moonish healing!
This means instead of just accepting I have to suffer in this way during this dasa time, realize you can also shift and put attention on a Moonish healing during this time. Believe me, I've done this and this is an excellent way of getting through difficult Dasas periods.  Thanks for your question."

ALL SUBSCRIBERS:

Anyone else who has good questions about life experiences and whether they're due to either our Transits, Dasas or Charts, let me know."

Sincerely,

Mark Kincaid
