Description of Rashidasha Kram

Rashidasha Kram (Serial Order)

In the last chapter, you got to know about different Rashis (signs) and their Lords. According to Jaimini Char Dasha, these twelve signs revolve around the earth in exactly twenty four hours. The number in front of each sign is its Lord. For example, in the last chapter, Aries was the Lord for the first number. In the same way, the other signs are also the Lords of their corresponding numbers. Every sign has its own independent movement. The Dasha of any Rashi in the Char Dasha is minimum for one and maximum for twelve years.

Saint Jaimini introduced some rules for determining Dasha. Six signs in Char Dasha have a direct Dasha Kram where as Six other signs have an indirect Dasha Kram.

Direct Category Signs

If Aries, Leo, Virgo, Libra, Aquarius or Pisces signs are in the ascendant in a person’s Kundali, they are categorised as direct. Aries sign’s Dasha will start first if it is in the ascendant. Taurus, Gemini and others will follow this in the numerical order. The last Dasha will be of Pisces sign and the cycle will be repeated from the beginning.

Indirect Category Signs

If Taurus, Gemini, Cancer, Scorpio, Sagittarius or Capricorn are in the ascendant in a person’s Kundali, they are categorised as indirect. Capricorn’s Dasha will start first if it is in the ascendant. This will be followed by Dasha of Sagittarius, Scorpio, Libra, Virgo, Leo, Cancer, Gemini, Taurus, Aries, Pisces and finally Aquarius. The cycle will then be repeated.

Antardasha Kram

According to Jaimini school of astrology,  every sign’s Antardasha during Mahadasha is similar to the Mahadasha order. Like indirect category’s Rashis are in a direct order and the indirect category’s Rashis are in an indirect order. One important pint in Char Dasha is that every sign’s Anatardasha will be the last during its Mahadasha. For example, if Aries sign is in the ascendant in a Kundali, then the Aantardasha of Taurus sign will be the first during Aries sign’s Dasha. This will be followed by Gemini’s Antardasha. In the end, Aries sign’s Anatardasha will begin during Aries sign’s Mahadasha.
In the indirect category, during the Mahadasha of Sagittarius sign, Scorpio sign’s Antardasha will be the first followed by Antardasha of Libra and Virgo signs. In the end, Sagittarius sign’s Antardasha will begin during Sagittarius sign’s Mahadasha.
