Magha's planetary lord is Ketu, so a person born with the Moon here starts life in a Ketu mahadasha — see Ketu mahadasha for what that period carries. The Moon's exact degree within Magha sets how much of that first period remains at birth; the dasha calculator works it out from your birth details.
