Series of simple exercises is what a student of Jaimini Astrology should do first to see himself how more and more research can be done. Astrologers should do honest researches and share them, through published papers, with others. That not having happened, what is being done is a pioneering work.
Now, before doing any prediction prepare a check-list,
- List all the karakas, seven in number, excluding Rahu/Ketu.
- Mark the Karakamhsa in the birth horoscope.
- Mark the Pada- Lagna in the birth horoscope.
- Mark the Upa-pada in the birth horoscope.
- Note the dasha order, is it direct or indirect?
- Calculate dasha periods,
- Remember the special rules for the calculation of the dasha periods of Scorpio and Aquarius.
- Remember to calculate the sub-periods carefully, keeping in mind that the sub-period of the major period comes last.
- Finally notice to which house from the birth lagna, a particular dasha belongs, first house, second house, etc.
Now follow the practical exercise as per the check-list.
Exercise One (Chart 1)
- Karakas have been mentioned
- The Karakamsha is Sagittarius.
Lagna 12°41′ Mars 23°58′ Venus 0°36′
Sun 18°16′ Mercury (R) 15°46′ Saturn 20°28′

Jaimini Kamkas :
AK Jupiter PK Sun Karakamsha Sagittarius
AmK Moon GK Mercury Pada Lagna Virgo
BK Mars DK Venus Upa-pada Libra
MK Saturn
3. Pada Lagna is Virgo.
4. Upa-pada is Libra.
5. Dasha order is direct: Virgo, Libra, Scorpio, Sagittarius. . .
6. For Scorpio counting is to be done upto Ketu because it is with two other planets while Mars is alone.
For Aquarius counting is to be done (indirect) upto Rahu because its degree is more. Both Rahu and Saturn are not associated with any other planet.
7. The calculation of dasha order will be given separately, with reasons.
8. Sub-periods will be given separately.
9. Interpretation of a particular dasha will be explained.
Dasha Periods
Virgo : Mercury is in Virgo so full 12 years : 1949-61
Libra : Venus is in the second house from Libra.
Deduct one from two.
The period will be of one year. : 1961-62
Scorpio : Count upto Ketu.
Eleven minus one is ten years
Sub-periods of Scorpio
1. It is a period of ten years. So each sub-period will be of ten months.
2. The dasha order will be indirect.
3. The sub-period of Scorpio will come in the last.
