Dasha systems.

Planetary-period frameworks beyond canonical Vimshottari: Yogini dasha (8-year cohort), Chara dasha (Jaimini rashi-based), Ashtottari (108-year cycle), Kalachakra, Narayana padakrama, and Shoola dasha for longevity timing. Each system carries its own activation logic, its own karaka emphasis and its own forecast register.
