Planets and houses are said to give their maturity effects at certain ages in a person’s life. The planets are more significant in this regard. When a planet matures at a certain age, the full potential of the planet will be able to manifest at that time. Whatever a planet promises in the chart, will materialise at that age.

Concept of Maturity can be used in conjunction with dasha and transit to arrive at predictions. The planet’s lordship (which is personal to the specific birth chart) as well as its natural signifcation (whch is common for everyone – i.e. Venus equals relationship) needs to be considered to understand the results.
