Jaimini Astrology
6.1 INTRODUCTION
Jaimini System of Astrology marks a definite departure from the cannons of
Sage Parasara or the original system of Astrology now in vogue throughout India. It
is inappropriate to say that Jaimini and Parasara Systems of Astrology are at complete
variance from each other, or they are two different systems. On the contrary, it is
reasonable to say that Jaimini System is mainly an offshoot of the general system of
Astrological Science propounded by Sage Parasara; in the works of Sages Parasara and
Vriddhayavana, frequent references are made to the specific and distinct
methodology employed by Sage Jaimini.
Jaimini System has its own distinct features. These features include:
(a)introduction of Karakas,
(b)the peculiar method of longevity,
(c)the simplicity with which the planets strengths are determiend,
(d)the apparently various types of Dasas,
(e)the emphasis laid on the conception of horoscope,
(f)the distinction attached to Arudha Lagna, and
(g)the great importance given to Karakamsa, and its bearing on determinaton of
livelihood.
The above features invest the whole Jaimini System of Astrology with a certain
amount of uniqueness and originality. Thus, it is no wonder that the Jaimini System
came to be looked upon as a separate branch of astrological knowledge, though it is
a doubless part of the Parasara System of Astrology.
Jataka Mani Manjusha
(a) Karakas
Each Planet is supposed to be the Karaka or indicative of certain events in
life. The functions of the Karaka are similar to those of the Bhava or House. Karakas
play important role in the analysis of horoscope.

Chapter 6: Jaimini Astrology
(d) Aspects
(1) Reckoning of Aspects: According to Hindu Astrology, aspects are generally
reckoned with reference to Signs, even though in the determination of Drugbala
or aspect strength, the aspect angles are invariably considered. A planet cannot
aspect another planet which is 30 ahead of it and 60 behind it. The aspect
begins from beyond 30 ahead of it and stops short of 300 ahead of it.
(2) Aspects in Jaimini System: It seems that in the Jaimini System, the aspect angles are
ignored. All movable Signs aspect all fixed Signs, except the adjacent ones. All
fixed Signs aspect all movable Signs, except the adjacent ones. The dual Signs
aspect each other. A summary of the same is presented in Table 6.3.
(3) Range of Aspect: The ranges of longitudes is given in Table 6.4 of different Signs
and Planets in them.
253
Jataka Mani Manjusha
Table 6.4: Range of Longitudes governing Aspects of Signs and Planets in it in JAIMINI SYSTEM
(e) Argalas
Planets and Rasis aspect other Planets and Signs according to their
dispositions. These aspect influences are affected for good or bad by the presence of
Planets in certain places, and from aspecting Lord or Sign. These affecting or
influencing agencies are called Argalas.
(1) Formation of Argalas: Planets in the 4th, 2nd, 11th and 5th Houses from an aspecting
body (except Ketu) cause or become Argalas. Lords become Argalas, which are in
the 9th House from Ketu.
(2) Benefic Argalas: The natural benefics in the 4th, 2nd, 11th and 5th Houses from an
aspecting body (except Ketu) act as Benefic Argalas.
(3) Malefic Argalas: The natural malefics in the 4th, 2nd, 11th, 5th and 3rd Houses from
an aspecting body (except Ketu) act as Malefic Argalas. Planet in 3rd House from
aspecting body becomes Malefic Argala, when more than 2 malefics are present.
(4) Counteracting Places of Argalas: Table 6.5 presents identified positions in which
the Argala action is counteracted. If a planet obstructing Argala is weaker than a
Planet causing Argala or less in Longitude, the Argala cannot be counteracted.
254
Chapter 6: Jaimini Astrology
(5) Significance of Argalas: Fortunate results are confined in the Dasas of Rasis, in
which Benefic Argalas are caused. Evil results will occur during Dasas of Rasis, in
which Papargalas are centered. If Benefic Argalas have reference to, i.e., fall in Pada
Lagna, Lagna or the 7th House, and are not neutalised, the person will be highly
fortunate and wealthy.
6.2 KARAKA
Karaka means that which governs or controls. Karakas in Parasara School are
different from Karakas in Jaimini School. The determination of 7 Karakas of Jaimini
School are explained. But, there are certain exceptions to the general rule governing
determination of the Karaka. Sometimes, 2 or more Planets may occupy the same
degree of Longitude, so that they may share the same Lordship. A contingency, like
this may rarely occurs, but it cannot be entirely ruled out. Under such exceptional
circumstances, when 2 or 3 Planets have to share the same Lordship, a few
Lordships become vacant and these have to be filled up by Rahu and the other
natural Karakas.
If Sun is the Bhatrukaraka, and Moon and Mars have the same Longitude,
then all the three Planets become Bhatrukaraka. This means, that Karakatwas, which
Moon and Mars should have to fall vacant. If in this instance, Matru and Pirtu
Karakas become vacant on account of Moon and Mars sharing Sun’s function, then
Rahu becomes Matru Karaka, and Jupiter (the natural Lord of Children) Putra Karaka.
Rahu could be a candidate for a Lordship, only when 2 or more Planets have equal
Longitudes, else it is not eligible. This view is supported by Sage Parasara. Rahu can
be taken as the 8th Planet, only when 2 or more Planets have the same longitude.
All Sutras to decide Raja Yogas of Sage Jaimini are based on (1) Karakamsa
Raasi, (2) Aarudha Lagna, (3) Upapada, (4) Hora Lagna, and (5) Saughatika Lagna. This
chapter explains the method of determining the above Lagnas, the usage and their
application.
255
Jataka Mani Manjusha
256
Chapter 6: Jaimini Astrology
There are two methods to determine the Karakamsa Lagna. In Method 1, first,
the degree of advancement (Bhagas) of all Planets is calculated in their respective
Houses. Then, the Planet is identified, which is most advanced amongst all of them.
The position of this Planet in the Navamsa Chart is the Karakamsa Lagna in the Rasi
Chart.
Sutra::
Yavadeesa Srayam Padam Rukhaanaam ||
Sage Jaimini took only Bhavas known as Padas. Pada means full house
containing 9 Nakshatra Padas, namely:
(1) Aruda pada from Janma Lagna;
(2) Kosa pada from 2nd House;
(3) Bhratru pada from 3rd House;
(4) Matru pada from 4th House;
(5) Mahatma pada from 5th House;
(6) Dara pada from 7th House;
(7) Bhagya pada from 9th House;
(8) Rajya pada from 10th House; and
(9) Upapada from 12th House.
Sage Jaimini considered that Lords of 6th, 8th and 11th Houses are not good.
Therefore, he did not give any Pada for these three Houses.
257
Jataka Mani Manjusha
Example:
Consider a person born in the year named Anadha, on Ashada Sudha 3rd
Saturday, at 32 Ghatikas, 46 Vighatikas; Ashlesha 31 Ghatikas, 39 Vighatikas;
Duration of day time 32 Ghatikas, 42 Vighatikas; Pushyami (the star previous to the
birth star), the previous day 32 Ghatikas, 47 Vighatikas. The person is born in
Karkataka Lagna.
The planetary positions at the time of birth of the person are shown in the
Raasi and Amsa charts presented in Figures 6.1 and 6.2 in East Indian System, and
Figures 6.3 and 6.4 in South Indian System. Table 6.6 presents the postions of planets,
Nakshatra Pada of the Planets, and their highest advanced Planets as per Sage
Jaimini’s Method 2 of identifying the Karakamsa Lagna.
Table 6.6: Position of Planets at birth of the person whose example is being discussed
The Ascendant and the Planets are positioned as per Nakshatra Padas in the
proper Signs in the directions given in Table 6.6. The nine Padas mentioned above
are discussed in this section.
Table 6.6 indicates that Jupiter has advanced 9 padas, which is the highest
amongst all Planets. Jupiter is in Virgo Ascendant in the Navamsa chart (Figure 6.4),
therefore Virgo Ascendant is the Karakamsa Lagna. Arudha Lagna and other Padas
also are shown in the Raasi chart (Figure 6.3) along with their positions of the
various Planets on that day.
Upapada also is shown in the Raasi chart in Leo Ascendant. This is calculated
from the Lord of 12th House from Lagna. In this example, the 12th House is in Gemini
Ascendant; its Lord is Mercury. Mercury is in 2nd House in Cancer Ascendant from
Gemini. Hence, the 2nd House from Mercury is Leo Ascedant, which is the Upapda.

Jataka Mani Manjusha
Example:
Consider a person born in the day in Cancer Rasi. The associated
calculations are shown below:
Ghatikas Vighatikas
(1) Time of birth from sunrise 3 30
(2) Total duration of day time 32 42
(3) Divide the day time equally into 12 Rasis 2 43
(4) Hence, birth time falls in 2 Rasi
The birth time falls in 2nd Rasi from sunrise. The person is born in Cancer Rasi; this is
an even Rasi. Therefore, counting of the Lagna should be in the anti-clockwise
direction. As per this, Gemini becomes the Hora Lagna, which is 2nd House form
Cancer. Refer to the Rasi chart (Figure 6.3) given in an earlier example. Sages
assigned Raja Yogas for this Hora Lagna also. Sage Jaimini called Naturally Good
Planets as Subhas, and Naturally Bad Planets as Papis.
Method B: The number of Ghatikas are calculated at the time of birth from sunrise.
This is divided by 12. The quoteient is rejected, and the intergral part of the
remainder is taken, say n. One is added to n. From Janma Lagna, (n+1)th House
gives the Ghatika Lagna. The fractional part of the remainder reduced to degree
gives the exact Longitude.
Example:
Consider a person born in the day in Taurus Rasi. The following calculation
is made as per Method B.
(1) Time of birth from sunrise 14.5 Ghatikas
(2) Divide by 12 14.5/12 = 1 Quotient, 2.5 Remainder
(3) Integral part of Remainder 2=n
(4) Fractional part of Remainder 0.5 0.5 30 = 15
(5) Ghatika lagna n+1=2+1=3
Thus, the third House from Janma Lagna (Taurus) is Cancer Lagna.
265
Jataka Mani Manjusha
6.4 SUTRAS
The Jaimini School of Astrology is discussed in the Sutras presented in this
Section. The entire science is studied according to symbols discussed in the Sutra:
Sarwathra savarna bhava raasayescha ||
According to above sutra of Sage Jaimni, Rasis should be interpreted symbolically
with letter sequence starting from Ka, Ta, Pa and Ya, as listed in Table 6.7. In
applying the symbols, the digits have to be reversed as presented below. For
instance, in the word Simha, Sa stands for 7 and Ha stands for 8. Thus, to represent
Simha, instead of the number 78, it should be reversed as 87. This number should be
divided by 12, and the balance is 3. This indicates the 3rd House. So, Simha always
indicates 3. Similarly, the controlling Houses are ascertained for other items. This
should be applied only to Rasis and not to Planets, according to the writing of
Jaimini, namely Nagrahaha [Rao, 1993].
Table 6.7: Numerical equivalents of the syllables that appear in the Sanskrit names of Rasis
Sage Jaimni laid down many sutras that govern Jaimini Astrology. These
sutras and their brief descriptions are given in Table 6.8 that runs across pages
[Murty, 1993].
266
Chapter 6: Jaimini Astrology
Table 6.8: Sutras laid down by Sage Jaimini and their descriptions
Sutra Description
1 Adhipasyanti Rukshani ||
2 Parsvabhecha ||
3 Thannishatscha Tadvathu ||
The 12 Rasis are divided into three Divisions of 4 Planets each, namely
Chara Sthira Dwiswabhava Group
Aries Taurus Gemini 1st
Cancer Leo Virgo 2nd
Libra Scorpio Sagittarius 3rd
Capricorn Aquarius Pisces 4th
A Planet in Chara Raasi will aspect a Planet in Sthira Raasi, and vice-versa. A Planet in
Dwiswabhava Raasi aspects another Planet in Dwiswabha Raasi, and vice-versa. But, this
does not apply to Planets in the same group, i.e., a Planet in Aries does not aspect a
Planet in Taurus or vice-versa.
4 Darabhagya saara sthargalani Jathuhu ||
Dara is represented by 8 (for Da) and 2 (for Ra), as per the symbolic representation
given in Table 8.2. When they are reversed, it is 28. When this is divided by 12, the
balance is 4. Therefore, Dara signifies 4. Similarly, the governing Houses can be worked
out for Bhagya and Saara; they are 2 and 11.
Naturally Good Planets in the 4th, 2nd and 11th from Karaka Lagna give very good Dhana
Yoga; this applies to Janma Langa also.
If Pisces is Janma Lagna and Naturally Good Planets (i.e., Moon, Mercury, Jupiter and
Venus) are in 2nd, 4th and 11th Houses, these Planets give very good Raja Yoga in their
own periods. If the Naturally Good Planets are equally distributed among the three
Houses, Yoga will be highest. This will apply to the Lord of the 5 th House. Jupiter and
Mercury give greater Yoga in 2nd and 11th Houses, than in 4th House, because Jupiter and
Mercury have kendradhipatya dosha, they will not give Yoga in the 4th House (which is a
Kendra). When these are not equally distributed, and Jupiter and Mercury are alone in
the 4th House, they will give Avayoga in their own periods.
Naturally Good Planets are Jupiter, Moon, Venus and Mercury. Jupiter is an outer
planet. Moon is a Satellite of Earth. Venus and Mercury are inner Planets between Sun
and Earth. Mercury is close to Sun and Venus farther away. In most horoscopes, these
two Planets are:
(1) In the same house – Difference in Longitude is less than 30,
(2) In adjacent houses – 30 away,
(3) In third house from each other – at 60 away, or
(4) In fourth house from each other – at 90 away.
267
Jataka Mani Manjusha
These 4 planets in 2nd, 4th and 11th House can be equally distributed –
(a) In case (1) above, as both Mercury and Venus in the same house, and
(b) In case (3) above, as Mercury is in 2nd House, and Venus in the 4th house.
In cases (2) and (4) above, either Venus or Mercury is eliminated, and this Yoga cannot
form. In cases (1) and (3) above, the four Planets can be distributed in 3 houses.
For Pisces Lagna, when Naturally Good Planets are in the 2nd, 4th and 11th Houses, and
Venus in 4th House, Venus gives very good Dhana Yoga in his periods and sub periods.
Also, Venus is good for education, though Venus is the Lord of the 3 rd and 8th Houses.
Even if Naturally Good Planets are only in the 2 nd and 4th Houses, and the 11th House is
free from any Planet, there will be good Dhana Yoga.
268
Chapter 6: Jaimini Astrology
4.6 In Pisces in 2nd and 4th from then the person will have good Dhana
lagna, if Houses, and Janma Yoga.
Naturally Good in 11th House, Lagna,

4.6(a) If Venus is in 4th House from then the person will have
Janma (1) good Dhana Yoga in his period and
Lagna, sub-periods; and
(2) good education, though Venus is
Lord of 3 and 8 Houses.
4.6(b) If Naturally in 2nd and 4th from then the person will have good Dhana
Good Planets Houses, and Janma Yoga.
are only 11th House is Lagna,
free of any
planet,
5 Kamasththu Bhuyasaa Paapaanaam ||
When Naturally Bad Planets (i.e., Saturn, Mars, Sun, and Rahu or Ketu are distributed
equally in 3rd and 6th Houses from lagna, the person has good Raja Yoga during the
periods of these Planets in these houses. Items 4.3 and 4.3(a) in Sutras 4 should be
read together to determine greater Raja Yoga.
Rahu and Ketu are generally 180 apart, i.e., 6 signs away. Hence, of the 5 Planets, only
four (Saturn, Mars, Sun and Rahu; or Saturn, Mars, Sun and Ketu). Equal distribution in
3rd and 6th Houses means they are 3 Signs away, i.e., 90 away. Hence, the 4 planets as
indicated above can be equally at two places – two at each place.
Planets in 12th, 10th and 3rd Houses are anti-forces for Planets in 2nd, 4th and 11th Houses,
i.e.,
1. Planet in 12th House spoils Yoga due from Planets in 2nd House.
2. Planet in 10th House spoils Yoga due from Planets in 4th House.
3. Planet in 3rd House spoils Yoga due from Planets in 11th House.
If Planet in 3rd House is less advanced than Planet in 11th House, the person will get Yoga
due from both the Planets.
7 Nanyana Vivarascha ||
When Planets in 12th, 10th and 3rd Houses are less powerfull, then the Planets in 2nd, 4th
and 11th Houses cannot spoil their Yoga. Even when they are more powerful or equal in
strength, they give Yoga.
When the Planets in 2nd, 4th and 11th are more powerfull or equal in strength, they give
Yoga.
269
Jataka Mani Manjusha
8 Prakvat Trikonehi ||
Planets in 5th House (even if weak) can give Raja Yoga, even when they have
Kendradhipatya Dosha.The situation is better when the combination in 5th House is with
Moon, but the Yoga is not good for Pisces Lagna.
9 Vipareetham Kethoho ||
Ketu gives Yoga in 9th House, unlike other Naturally Bad Planets; some astrologers
suggest that Ketu will give Yoga in 5th House, but not combined with Venus.
10 Thasyaami Sahana Damatyaha ||
All seven Planets and one of Rahu and Ketu (i.e., a total of 8 Planets) should be listed in
the order of their degrees they have advanced, beginging from the highest advanced
Planet. Planet with the highest advancement is Lagna Karaka, similar to Lagna, the
results should be read as the Karaka Yogas. The next advanced Planet in the list, i.e., 2nd
Planet, is known as Amatya Karaka. From this, the thinking capacity of the person, can
be known.

milk to the new born, then another woman in lactation is allowed to give milk to the
newborn; that other woman is called Wet Nurse. Sometimes, when Wet Nurse happens
to be a Visha Kanya, the milk from her will lead to danger to the newborn.
34 Same Vahanadhi duchhachya kramath – pathanam ||
If Karakamsa Raasi is Sagittarius, the person has danger from vehicles or falling trees.
272
Chapter 6: Jaimini Astrology
If Sun is situated in Karakamsa Lagna, the person will be a government officer or good
Administrator. Some astrologers interpret this as: that the results should be read from
7th house from Karakamsa Lagna Raasi.
39 Poornendu Sukrayo rbhogi vidya seeveecha ||
If full Moon, Venus or both are in Karakamsa Lagna, the person will live luxuriously by
his scholarship. As per Parasara School of Strology, if Moon, Venus or both are in 5th
and 9th Houses from Janma Lagna, or in Kendras or Konas from Karakamsa Lagna, the
person will live luxuriously by his scholarship. Experience shows that both of these
schools give reliable results. The person will definitely be a government officer, when
Venus is in Karakamsa Lagna.
40 Dhathuvaadi kaunthyaudha vahini jeevecha bhoume ||
If Mars is in Karakamsa Lagna, the person will live by chemical dealings, weaponry or
items relating to fire.
41 Vanijasthanthu waysa silpino vyavahara vidosch saumye ||
If Jupiter is in Karakamsa Lagna, the person will be inclined to traditions, vedic rituals,
and philosophy and knowledge of Vedas and Saastras.
273
Jataka Mani Manjusha
If Venus is in Karakamsa Lagna, the person will be a government officer, ambitious and
one with longevity. Semi-Government exployement also is considered to be
government service. Some astrologers read Kaminaha as denoting passion, but
experience does not seem to suggest this. Though Venus directly influences sex, this
should not be attributed to Venus, when Venus is a Karakamsa Lagna. Sata does not
denote exactly hundred, but many years.
44 Prasiddha karma jeeva sanow ||
If Saturn is in Karakamsa Lagna, the person will live with good reputation, honesty and
with nobility. The other version of this Sutra is:
Prasiddhaha karmana jeeveth Sanina ||
If Saturn is in Karakamsa Lagna or Janma Lagna, the person will gain great name in his
family circles and lives by personal effort. These yogas are particularly favourable to
persons with Libra, Sagittarius, Capricorn and Aquarius Raasees.
45 Dhanuskaaschorascha ||
46 Jangalika lohayanthrenascha rahow ||
If Saturn is in Karakamsa Lagna, the person will live by dacoity in forests. Experience
suggests that this may be incorrect. But, the person will be a hunter in jungles,
dishonest, deal in metals, poisonous drugs, or some antibiotics.
47 Gaja vyavahariwaschorascha Kethow ||
If Ketu is in Karakamsa Lagna, the person will deal with purchase and sale of Elephants,
or be involved in house breaking. But, experience suggests that the person will have
worldly wisdom, false and deceitful, or having fraudulent dealings.
48 Thatramanda sarpayoho tambula daayi ||
If Saturn and Rahu are in Karakamsa Lagna, the person will engage in thambula peethika
daram (courtiers); but, practice does not suggest this. By mere combination of Saturn
and Rahu, the person will not resort to mean professions, but live independently. At
times, the person will behave meanly (if necessary), though he may be a showman
externally.
49 Chape Chandre nanikaha ||
50 Sukradrushte viseshena ||
If Moon in Karakamsa Lagna and happens to be in Cancer Sign, the person will earn by
maritime trade or will be a Officer of the Navy.
If Moon in Karakamsa Lagna and happens to be in Cancer Sign and is aspected by Venus,
the person will have higher dealings in boat trasnport.
274
Chapter 6: Jaimini Astrology
If Sun and Rahu are in karakamsa lagna, the person will die by snake bite or has
dangers from snakes. Some say that this will happen when Rahu or Ketu is in 2nd House
from Sun.
52 Subha drushte than nivruthihi ||
If Sun and Rahu are aspected by a subha or combined with a Naturally Good Planet, and
are in Karakamsa Lagna and happens to be the Cancer Sign, the person will have no
danger of life; the dosha will be neutralized and no death will take place.
53 Subhamaatra sambandha – jangalikaha ||
If Sun and Rahu are in Karakamsa Lagna and aspected by a Naturally Good Planet, the
person will be a forest dweller.
Experience shows that the person lives by medical practice. Hence, while some read
Jangalika to mean forest, but it is proper to read it as medicine.
54 Chandraketu bhya methyeka ||
If Sun and Ketu are in Karakamsa Lagna and aspected by a Naturally Good Planet, the
person will be a forest dweller (as in Sutra 53).
Some astrologers say that the person will live by poisonous medicines; this is seen to
be accurate.
55 Kujamaatra dushte griha dahakaha agnidova ||
If Karakamsa Lagna is aspected by Mars, the person’s house will be burnt or he will
burn others’ Houses, sometimes his own house may fall.
56 Sukradrushte ardhadahaha ||
If Karakamsa Lagna is aspected by Venus and Mars or Venus alone, the person’s house
will be partly burnt.
If Karakamsa Lagna is aspected by Jupiter and Venus, the houses near the person’s
house will be burnt.
275
Jataka Mani Manjusha
If Gulika Planet is in Karakamsa Lagna, the person will die by poison or kill others by
poison.
59 Chandradrushtow chorapa – rutha dhanaschorovaa ||
