method of calculation of jaimini chara dasha
DESCRIPTION
In Jaimini System, dasha implies dasha of signs like Aries, Taurus, Gemini … Pisces.Chara Dasha begins from sign rising in the Lagna. Suppose Aries sign is rising in the Lagna, first Mahadasha will be of Aries. Likewise, the sequence of Antara, Pratyantara etc will be in the same manner. In a particular sign dasha first antaradasha, pratyantardasha etc. will of that particular sign.TRANSCRIPT

A FEW FUNDAMENTAL ASPECTS OF CHARA DASHA
• Determine the degrees/minutes/seconds of the seven planets of a natal horoscope in
order to get their “Karaka” (significator) status, excluding Rahu and Ketu.
• At the same time, Rahu and Ketu have given dominant role in deciding Dasha
sequence for Aquarius and Scorpio respective. A) the span of Dasha of Aquarius
could be either on the basis of the placement Rahu or Saturn according to their
strength according to their association and/or planetary degrees. B) Similarly, the
span of Scorpio Dasha could be either on the basis of the placement of Ketu or Mars
according to their strength, which include their planetary association and/or
planetary degrees.
• In Jaimini System, dasha implies dasha of signs like Aries, Taurus, Gemini …
Pisces.
• Chara Dasha begins from sign rising in the Lagna. Suppose Aries sign is rising in
the Lagna, first Mahadasha will be of Aries. Likewise, the sequence of Antara,
Pratyantara etc will be in the same manner. In a particular sign dasha first
antaradasha, pratyantardasha etc. will of that particular sign.
• The durations of Jaimini Chara Dasha can range from 1 year (minimum) to 12
years (maximum).
DIRECTION OF CHARA DASHA
• Six signs adopt direct direction when these are in Lagna: Aries, Leo, Virgo, Libra,
Aquarius and Pisces. Rule : If the 9th house from the lagna is falls in the Savya rashis -
Aries, Taurus, Gemini, Libra, Scorpio or Sagittarius, the dasha order will be forward or
direct.
• Six signs adopt indirect direction when these are in Lagna: Taurus, Gemini, Cancer,
Scorpio, Sagittarius and Capricorn. Rule: If the 9th from lagna is in the Apasavya rashis -
Cancer, Leo, Virgo, Scorpio, Sagittarius or Capricorn, then the dasha is backward of
indirect.

Calculation of the chara daha period
The 12 rashis are divided into 2 groups :
• (1) Direct or Savya group: Aries(1) Taurus (2) Gemini(3) Linra (7) Scorpio (8)
and Sagittarius (9) – From these rashis, count upto the rashi directly where the lord
of the rashi is tenented.
• (2) Indirect or Apasavya group: Cancer(4) Leo (5) Virgo (6) Capricorn (10)
Aquarius (11) and Pisces (12) – From these rashis, count upto the rashi indirectly
(or in reverse direction) to where the lord of the rashi is teneted.
• (3) The rules for computing the dasha period of Scorpio and Aquarius are stated
below in 6.** 7.** and 8.**

• (4) For determining the length of Mahadasha, there is concept of counting in
forward and backward order for particular sign. Once we determine the starting
Chara Dasha of a Rashi, the duration is that Rashi dasha is assessed by counting in
forward or backward as follows:
LAGNA DURATION OF DASHA
Aries Count Forward to Mars' location, then subtract 1
Taurus Forward to Venus' location, then subtract 1
Gemini Count forward to Mercury's location, then subtract 1
Cancer Count backward to the Moon's location, then subtract 1
Leo Count backward to the Sun's location, then subtract 1
Virgo Count backward to Mercury's position, then subtract 1
Libra Count forward to Venus' location, then subtract 1
Scorpio Count forward to Mars' (or Ketu's) position, then subtract 1
Sagittarius Count forward to Jupiter's position, then subtract 1
Capricorn Count backward to Saturn's position, then subtract 1
Aquarius Count backward to Saturn's (or Rahu's) position, then subtract 1*
Pisces Count backward to Jupiter's position, then subtract 1
• (5) If a planet is in its own sign, it is assigned twelve years.
• (6) **If there are more planets in the sign in which Mars (for Scorpio dasha) or
Saturn for Aquarius) sits, then the counting is done to this sign; if there are more
planets in the sign in which Ketu or Rahu sits, the counting is done to that sign.
• (7) **If Mars is in Scorpio, and Ketu is not, then, Ketu is selected. If Ketu is in
Scorpio and Mars is not, then Mars is picked. If both are alone in signs, then
determine which among Ketu or Mars is at higher degree. The planet at higher
degree is selected for assigning the dasha years.
• (8) **If both are at the same degree, then count to the planet at higher minute. If
both are at higher minute, count to the sign with higher second. This same way of
determining the winning planet, for terms of counting the number of years to be
assigned to the sign in question, is to be used for Saturn and Rahu in the case of
Aquarius.
The number which results from the counting (including the sign from which the counting
starts) is then to subtract 1 from the total. This will give the Mahadasha in years.

THE ORDER OF CHARA DASHA SUB-PERIODS
The same method of direction is used in the sub periods of the Chara Dasha, as used for
the major periods. The only exception or deviation in the order is that the Rashi whose
dasha is operating will have it’s own sub period last, as shown through the two examples
below:
Aries
Direct
Taurus, Gemini, Cancer, Leo, Virgo, Libra, Scorpio, Sagittarius,
Capricorn, Aquarius, Pisces and Aries. Major period rashi Aries comes
last.
Taurus
Indirect
Aries, Pisces, Aquarius, Capricorn, Sagittarius, Scorpio, Libra, Virgo,
Leo, Cancer, Gemini and Taurus. Major period rashi Taurus comes last.

In this chart, the Karakas have been identified and the 9th housefrom the Ascendant falls in Pisces which is in the ApasavyaGroup. Therefore, the dashas of the rashis will be in the Reverse direction – from Cancer, followed by Gemini, Taurus,Aries, Pisces ….....to Leo.
