Triple Transit Triggering Influence

The significant events are triggered by the interplay of the relationship between transit planets and natal planets/Most Effective Points. The result generated depend upon the significations ruled by the planets involved, the significations ruled by their mooltrikona houses, the significations ruled by their houses of placement, either natally or in transit, and/or the significations ruled by the natal house(s) whose Most Effective Points are under transit impact. This is called the Triple Transit Triggering Influence (TTT) as it is true for the three possible combinations of transit influence i.e. transit over natal, transit over transit, and natal over transit. In other words:

1. Whenever any weak natal planet/Most Effective Point is transited by Functional Malefics, it triggers a significant undesirable incident concerning the weak natal planet or that weak house, whichever is the case. This is more so when the weak natal planet or the lord/significator of the weak house is weak in transit too. 
2. Whenever any strong natal planet/Most Effective Point is transited by Functional Malefics, it triggers a mild unfavourable incident concerning that planet or house whichever is the case. 
3. Whenever any weak natal Functional Benefic/Most Effective Point is transited by Functional Benefic(s), it triggers hopes or non-significant happy incidents concerning that planet or house, whichever is the case. 
4. Whenever any strong natal Functional Benefic/Most Effective Point is transited by Functional Benefic(s), it triggers significant happy incidents concerning that strong natal planet or that strong house, whichever is the case. This is more so when the planet or the lord/significator of the house is strong in transit too. 
5. Whenever planets in transit form close conjunctions amongst themselves, the happenings occur depending upon their functional nature in connection with the houses with reference to a particular ascendant. 
6. If the close conjunction or aspect(s) of planets in transit involve two or more Functional Benefic(s) with reference to a particular ascendant, it triggers happy events pertaining to all the planets. 
7. If one of the planets involved in close conjunction or aspect in a transit planetary movement is a Functional Malefic, it harms the significations of the other Functional Benefic(s) involved with reference to a particular ascendant. 
8. If both or all the planets forming close conjunction in transit with reference to a particular ascendant are Functional Malefic(s), it harms the significations of all the planets involved. 
9. Whenever any weak transit planet forms close conjunction with or become closely aspected by natal Functional Malefic(s), it triggers a significant undesirable incident concerning that weak transit planet. This is more so when the planet is weak in rasi too. 
10. Whenever any strong transit planet forms close conjunction with or become closely aspected by natal Functional Malefic(s), it triggers a mild unfavourable incident concerning that strong transit planet. 
11. Whenever any weak transit Functional Benefic forms close conjunction with or become closely aspected by natal Functional Benefic(s), it triggers hopes or non-significant happy incidents pertaining to that weak transit planet. 
12. Whenever any strong transit Functional Benefic forms close conjunction with or become closely aspected by natal Functional Benefic(s), it triggers significant happy incidents pertaining to that strong transit planet. This is more so when the planet is strong in rasi too. 
13. The transit effects are always seen with reference to the natal ascendant. 
14. In setting the trends, the sub-period lord has maximum say. However, the transit impacts mentioned above supersede the trend results of the sub-period lord. 
15. The malefic transit impact of slow moving Functional Malefic(s) like Jupiter, Saturn, Rahu and Ketu is more pronounced when, during the course of their close conjunctions/aspects, they move more slowly as compared to their normal speed or become stationary. This is true both for natal and transit influence. 
16. During the sub-periods of the Functional Benefic(s), the transit impacts of Functional Benefic(s) are stronger while transit impacts of Functional Malefic(s) are mild. If the sub-period lord is strong, then the transit influences of Functional Benefic(s) cause significant happy events. 
17. During the sub-periods of Functional Malefic(s), the transit impacts of Functional Benefic(s) are mild while the transit impacts of Functional Malefic(s) are more severe. If the transit influences are from strong Functional Benefic(s), then the benefic results may be comparatively better but with some delay. 
18. The duration of the transit results ceases to exist as soon as the transit close conjunction or aspect separates. The orbit of separation would depend upon the strength of the planets on which the transit influence have been created. 
19. Whenever a transiting Functional Malefic transits the Most Effective Point of any house, it afflicts that house as well as the aspected house(s). A transit Functional Malefic never afflicts its own mooltrikona  house, except when the functional malefic planet is already afflicted and/or afflicts from a dusthana/malefic house. 
20. A transit of Functional Malefic will always afflict its natal position by conjunction or aspect, except when natally placed in its own mooltrikona house. 
21. A natal Functional Malefic will always afflict its transit position by aspect even when transiting its own mooltrikona house. 
22. A natal Functional Malefic will always afflict its transit position by conjunction, except when placed in its own mooltrikona house.
