The key takeaways are that Chara Dasha is an unconditional dasha system in Jaimini astrology where the sequence is determined by the rising sign. The direction of the Chara Dasha is also important as some signs follow a direct sequence while others follow an indirect sequence.

Chara Dasha refers to the dasha of the signs like Aries, Taurus etc. It is unconditional and applicable to all horoscopes. In contrast, Rashi Dasha implies dasha of planets. Chara Dasha begins from the sign rising in the Lagna.

The sequence of Chara Dasha is determined based on whether the rising sign in Lagna follows a direct or indirect direction. It then lists out the specific sequence for all 12 rising signs.

Jaimini Astrology - Chara Dasha

-By B.K. Kumar

In Jaimini System, whenever we talk about dasha, it
implies dasha of sign like Aries, Taurus, Gemini etc. i.e.
Rashi Dasha. In this system, Chara Dasha has its own
importance as it is unconditional dasha which is
applicable for all horoscopes. 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.
In Jaimini System the direction of Char Dasha is very
important. There are six signs which adopt direct direction
when these are in Lagna. These signs are Aries, Leo,
Virgo, Libra, Aquarius and Pisces. And rest six signs
(Taurus, Gemini, Cancer, Scorpio, Sagittarius and
Capricorn follow indirect direction.
The pattern of the Char Dasha Sequences is as follows:
Lagna Pattern of the Char Dasha
Aries: Aries, Taurus, Gemini, Cancer, Leo, Virgo, Libra,
Scorpio, Sagittarius, Capricorn, Aquarius, Pisces
Taurus:Aries, Pisces, Aquarius, Capricorn, Sagittarius,
Scorpio, Libra, Virgo, Leo, Cancer, Gemini

Gemini: Gemini, Taurus, Aries, Pisces, Aquarius,


Capricorn, Sagittarius, Scorpio, Libra, Virgo, Leo, Cancer
Cancer: Cancer, Gemini, Taurus, Aries, Pisces, Aquarius,
Capricorn, Sagittarius, Scorpio, Libra, Virgo, Leo
Leo: Leo, Virgo, Libra, Scorpio, Sagittarius, Capricorn,
Aquarius, Pisces, Aries, Taurus, Gemini, Cancer
Virgo: Virgo, Libra, Scorpio, Sagittarius, Capricorn,
Aquarius, Pisces, Aries, Taurus, Gemini, Cancer, Leo
Libra: Libra, Scorpio, Sagittarius, Capricorn, Aquarius,
Pisces, Aries, Taurus, Gemini, Cancer, Leo, Virgo
Scorpio: Scorpio, Libra, Virgo, Leo, Cancer, Gemini,
Taurus, Aries, Pisces, Aquarius, Capricorn, Sagittarius
Sagittarius: Sagittarius, Scorpio, Libra, Virgo, Leo,
Cancer, Gemini, Taurus, Aries, Pisces, Aquarius,
Capricorn
Capricorn: Capricorn, Sagittarius, Scorpio, Libra, Virgo,
Leo, Cancer, Gemini, Taurus, Aries, Pisces, Aquarius
Aquarius: Aquarius, Pisces, Aries, Taurus, Gemini,
Cancer, Leo, Virgo, Libra, Scorpio, Sagittarius, Capricorn
Pisces: Pisces, Aquarius, Capricorn, Sagittarius, Scorpio,
Libra, Virgo, Leo, Cancer, Gemini, Taurus, Aries, Pisces

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:
If a planet is in its own sign, it is assigned twelve years.

Lagna Duration of the Char 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,a.sun
subtract 1
*If there are more planets in the sign in which Mars or
Saturn 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.
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 the winner.
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.
