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