Firdaria is a Persian/medieval timing technique that divides life into planetary periods following the Chaldean order. Each planet rules a chapter of your life for a specific number of years (e.g., Sun = 10 years, Jupiter = 12 years). The sequence starts from the sect light — Sun for day charts, Moon for night charts. The total cycle is 75 years.

How does sect affect Firdaria?

Sect determines the starting planet. Day charts (Sun above the horizon at birth) begin with the Sun period. Night charts begin with the Moon period. This means a person born at night will experience the planetary periods in a completely different order than someone born during the day.

What are Firdaria sub-periods?

Each major Firdaria period is subdivided into 7 equal sub-periods, one for each traditional planet. The sub-period sequence begins with the major period ruler and follows the Chaldean order. For example, during the Sun period, the sub-periods are: Sun, Venus, Mercury, Moon, Saturn, Jupiter, Mars.

What Is Firdaria?

Firdaria is a planetary period system from medieval Persian astrology that divides life into chapters ruled by each of the seven traditional planets plus the lunar nodes.

The total cycle is 75 years: Sun (10), Venus (8), Mercury (13), Moon (9), Saturn (11), Jupiter (12), Mars (7), North Node (3), South Node (2). For night charts, the sequence starts with the Moon instead of the Sun.

Each major period is subdivided into 7 sub-periods following the same Chaldean order, starting from the major ruler. This creates a nuanced timing system that describes the general tone of each life phase and its internal shifts.
