A concept of Vedic Astrology, Mahadasha is called after the Great period in a person’s life. Dasha means a stage of life or a period of time. Maha means great, together the two words make ‘Mahadasha’ i.e. the great period of an individual’s life.
[blogadsense]This period of time or stretch of time in an individual's lifespan is ruled by a particular planet. The planet depends on their date and time of birth. Each Mahadasha is managed by a different planet and by extension has different names. For example- the Mahadasha under Saturn is called Shani Mahadasha, under Mars is calle Mangal etc.
The Mahadasha of Jupiter is known as the Guru Mahadasha. It is one of the most beneficial Mahadasha in life. One if likely to come under the influence of Vimshottari Jupiter Mahadasha. It runs for a period of 16 years based on the Vimshottari system of time calculation.
As Jupiter is considered an auspicious plant, its Mahadasha brings good results and effects. The sixteen years that it rules for are considered to be the most auspicious period in an individual’s life, bringing for them success, wealth, power and spiritual development.
However, the Jupiter Mahadasha can also have negative impacts. What happens for you when it starts will depend on how Jupiter is placed in your chart. While Jupiter is majorly benevolent, it can also have negative and disastrous effects on your finances, health, jobs etc.
The Jupiter Mahadasha or Guru Mahadasha will bring either sixteen years of wealth, prosperity, name, and fame or sixteen years of mental stress, financial instability, family problems etc,depending on your birth ascendant.
Therefore, when Jupiter is a beneficial planet it brings all good things like wealth, happiness, financial stability, spousal love etc. But, when it is a non-beneficial planet, it brings ominous effets.

The planet Jupiter offers results according to your house placement and ascendant. Like, for Aries Ascendant, they may get good results as Jupiter is in the 9th lord in their chart. On the contrary Taurus Ascendant may not get desirable results as Jupiter is the 8th and 11th house for them.
Aries ascendant
Jupiter is a beneficial planet for them as it is the lord of the 9th and 12thhouse. It will bring them achievement and prosperity in life.
Taurus Ascendant
The Vimshottari 16 years are not good for Taurus Ascendants as Jupiter is not placed in a good position. It is the lord of the 8th and 11th house for them. For it to be beneficial, it must be placed in its own sign and conjoined by auspicious planets like the Moon.
Gemini ascendant
It is auspicious for Gemini ascendants being the lord of the 7th and 10th house.
Cancer ascendant
The Jupiter Mahadasha brings spectacular results for them as it is the lord of the 6th and 9th house. It shall bring them name, fame, wealth, and prosperity.
Leo ascendant
They shall reap beneficial results during these sixteen years, being the lord of the 5th and 8th house. It shall bring happiness, and higher education.
Virgo ascendant
The planet is not beneficial as it owns the 4th and 7th house in a Virgo’s chart.
Libra ascendant
Good results will not be reaped as the planet guru is the lord of the 3rd and 6th house.
Scorpio ascendant
Good results shall be reaped as Jupiter is quite beneficial for them. It is the Lord of the second and fifth house.
Sagittarius ascendant
The planet Jupiter is the Lord of the fourth house. Hence it is the most beneficial planet for the native. Success, happiness, health, and social standing shall be received
Capricorn ascendant
Jupiter is the Lord of the third in the 12th house. Hence it is not a beneficial planet for the native belonging to this ascendant.
Aquarius ascendant
Jupiter is the Lord of the second and the 11th house for the native of Aquarius ascendant. It is beneficial for them and will bring wealth and prosperity during the 16 years.
Pisces ascendant
It is an excellent Mahadasha for the person born in this ascendant. The planet is the Lord of the 10th house which is extremely beneficial for the native. It shall bring extreme success and achievement.

My Guru is In Leo in 2nd house with seventh aspect drishti from Mangal in the 8th house in Aquarius. I am a retired General Surgeon and my Guru mahadasha started on 14th of December 2023. I hope the next 16 years are going to be better the last 18 years of Rahu mahadasha which were not that bad.
