In my article ‘Method of calculating Rashiyanka Dasha’ I have demonstrated the dasha calculation scheme of this conditional dasha using two example horoscopes. Now here in this post I will take the horoscope of my childhood friend to show how to apply this Rashi dasha and give predictions using Jaimini Karaka’s. I have use Rashiyanka Dasha on the given below chart of one of my friend over last few years and have given some correct predictions about his marriage, career, child birth and father’s death. This case study will show the readers how to use this Rashi Dasha along with Vimshottari Dasha in the charts where the lord of lagna is strong. As i had discuss in my earlier post that Rashiyanka dasha is a conditional dasha which is applicable on the horoscope where the lord of lagna is strong.

In the Makar lagna chart of this person the lagna lord Saturn is in its friendly Rashi Virgo. In Navamsha the Saturn goes into its own sign Capricorn. So the chart becomes eligible for the application of the Rashiyanka Dasha as per the hypothesis I have discuss above. The Dasha will start from the Navamsha sign of the lagna lord Saturn which is Capricorn. The order of the Dasha will be direct; Capricorn, Aquarious, Pisces, Aries, Taurus and so on. The number of years for each sign will be calculated as we do in the case of ‘Mandooka Dasha’.
In case of odd sign the counting will be in direct order from the Rashi to its lord. In case of even sign the countring will be in indirect order from the Rashi to its lord. If the lord of a Rashi is place in the seventh house from its Rashi then ten years will be given. If the lord is place in the Rashi it self then full twelve years will be given to the Dasha Rashi.
The anterDashas will always move in the sequence of maha Dasha i.e. in direct order only. So the Dasha order is invariably direct but the counting can be direct and indirect depending on odd and even Rashis is a principal that should be kept in mind without failing.
In the example horoscope the Dasha will proceed from Capricorn which is the Navamsha sign of the lagna lord Saturn. The number of years for each Rashi will be calculated in the Rashi chart and Dasha will proceed in the direct order.

The native is of a small trader dealing in Hardware and Sanitary iteams. He joined his family business at a very young age of 18 years when he was under the Rashiyanka Dasha of Pisces which is receiving the aspect of his Amatayakaraka Mars. He also faced family disputes and health troubles during this Pisces period which is clear from the joint aspect of Ganatikaraka Moon and Darakaraka Saturn here on the Dasha Rashi. Due to family trouble he went into depression and had to take a psyschiatrist treatment from a very young age.
In year 2010 there was a major crisis in his life when his younger sister got hospitalized due to tuberclosis and later went into a phase of chronic mental illness. His mother also fell seriously ill during the same year and passed away on 5th of May 2010. It was the period of Taurus-Cancer ( August 2009 to August 2010 ) in Rashiyanka Dasha in his chart. The Matrikaraka is Mercury here which is placed in the sub period Rashi Cancer itself and giving aspect to the mahaDasha Rashi Taurus. The 4th pada is in Aquarious which falls in the 8th house from the sub period Rashi Cancer.
After three months of the death of his mother the maternal uncle of this native pressurise him to get marry at the earliest citing the reason that there was no women at his home now which can take care of his ailing younger sister. The native got engaged to a girl in Taurus-Leo period ( August 2010 to August 2011) some time in the last week of August 2010. Taurus have ‘Darapada’ in its 7th house which is Scorpio. In the Navamsha the Darakaraka Saturn is giving aspect to Taurus and 7th house from it. However, the sub period Rashi Leo is the 8th house and the Darakaraka falls in the 6th from it in the Navamsha chart. During the period of courtship the native had a serious quarrel with the girl. The girl’s family broke the engagement on the 24th of October 2010 and the boy went into depression because of this setback. It was during Taurus-Leo-Libra in Rashiyanka Dasha. Libra is the 8th house from Karakamsha and 7th house from his Upapada. The Darakaraka Saturn falls in the 12th from Libra Rashi.
Nevertheless, the family of this boy soon find out another girl for him and against his wishes he was put into a relationship of marriage on the 17th of May 2010. It was Taurus-Leo-Taurus period running in Rashiyanka Dasha at that time. The native become father of a baby girl on 16th of March 2012 during the Rashiyanka Dasha of Taurus-Virgo-Aries in his chart. The Putrakaraka Venus is giving aspect to the 5th house from Taurus which is Virgo the sub period Rashi it self. When the Dasha Rashi’s or the fifth house from it are influenced by the Putrakaraka or Jupiter at the time of marriage then there is a possibility that there might be the birth of a child in next one year if the couple essentially wanted the same.However, an astrologer must also take into consideration the socio-cultural background of the natives before giving any prediction about the child birth as in modern urben society the couples generally avoid becoming parents in the first 3-4 years of their marriage or relationship.
This native is my former schoolmate and now consult me for his horoscope since many years. He asked me about his property dispute, releated with a costly commercial land, with his paternal uncle some time in the last quarter of year 2013. He was under the Taurus-Scorpio ( August 2013 to August 2014) Rashiyanka Dasha at that time. I predicted him that he will be able to resolve the dispute amicably, with out fileing a law suit, and the land will be registered at his name in the first half of year 2014. The astrologicaly basis of my prediction was very simple. The Amatayakaraka Mars was influencing the 11th house of gain from both the Dasha Rashi’s Taurus and Scorpio. So the gain in profession was amply clear from running Dasha periods. The Matrikaraka, which is Mercury here, signifying property/land was giving aspect to both Taurus and Scorpio sign. Additionally the 4th pada was in Aquarious the 10th house from Taurus and the 4th house from Scorpio. How could he have lost the land in a dispute during such a favorable Dasha periods?
The native was able to settle the dispute of land through negotiations with his uncle and paid him some amount to get the title in his name.The property registered in his name on the 3rd of March 2014. It was during the Taurus-Scorpio-Taurus period in the Rashiyanka Dasha.
Later I cautioned him to be careful about the health of his father. I specifically told him that the months of March-April 2015 will be very bad for his father as two eclipses will fall exactly on his chart’s 3-9 axis then. In Rashiyanka Dasha the sub period of Sagittarious was coming from August 2014. The Sun was falling in the 8th house from Sagittarious. The Bhatrikaraka Jupiter in the 9th house from Sagittarious and the 9th Pada falling in the 6th house from this sub period Rashi was giving an indication of serious trouble for his father. My prediction about his father’s illness also come out true. After August 2014 his father’s health started deteriorating due to multipal aliments and he was unable to live a normal life. In the morning of 8th of April 2015, exactly 4 days after the lunar eclipse which fall at his 9th house , his father passed away.It was an emotional set back for him
Nevertheless, from the point of view of career this Sagittarious sub period proved good for him as he constructed a new showroom at the commercial land he got earlier. The Amatayakaraka is giving aspect to Sagittarous from its 10th house explains this. A Dasha might be bad in one aspect of life but it may give excellent results in other area of life.
How to predict education and career from Rashiyanka Dasha
In the two case studies given here I will expalin how we can predict rise and fall in career using Rashiyanka Dasha very easily.

In this case I am taking here the lord of lagna is Mercury which is placed in its friendly sign in both Rashi and Navamsha chart. Mercury is in Libra which is the sign of its natural friend Venus. So the Rashiyanka Dasha can be applied on this horoscope as per the hypothesis I have discuss above. The Dasha will start from Libra, which is the Navamsha sign of lagna lord here, and move in direct order.
Libra……………………. from 1980 to 1990
Scorpio………………….from 1990 to 1992
Sagittarius……………. from 1992 to 2002
Capricorn………………from 2002 to 2007
Aquarius………………from 2007 to 2015
Pisces…………………from 2015 to 2025
This native had to leave his studies in 1996 due to an economic crisis in his family. His father, who was working in the Delhi Transport Corporation then, suspended from his job after some dispute and was fighting a court battle to get his job back. It was during the Rashiyanka Dasha of Sagittarius (from 1992 to 2002) when the family of this native was facing a financial crunch. In Rashi chart the Sagittarius, which is notorious for bringing upheavals in life, is the 6th house from the Atamakaraka which is Venus here. The Bhatrikaraka, which is Moon here, is giving aspect to the 12th house from Sagittarius showing a period of losses for his father.
Soon he continued his studies from an open school and also started earning by doing a small business of automobile at a very young age of just 18 years. The Amatayakaraka Mars is place in the 11th house from the Dasha Rashi Sagittarius in the Rashi chart explains it. Then the Rashiyanka Dasha of Capricorn started from September 2002 in which he got the job in an IT company in a technical profile of computer hardware engineer for the maintenance of systems. See the placement of Amaytayakaraka in the 10th house from Capricorn showing this important change in his career. Ketu place in the Dasha Rashi Capricorn gave him a job in the field of computers.
The native got married on 17th of November 2003 during his Rashiyanka Dasha of Capricorn-Pisces ( from July 2003 to November 2003). In the Rashi chart the Capricorn is the 7th house from his Atamakaraka Venus. The sub period Rashi Pisces is receiving the aspect of his Darakaraka Jupiter. Pisces is also the 7th house from his Upapada. In Navamsha chart the Darakaraka is place in the Capricorn itself. Venus, the natural Karaka of spouse, is in the sub period sign Pisces in the Navamsha chart making it amply clear.
The 5th house from Capricorn is under the aspect of Ganatikaraka
Mercury in both Rashi chart and Saptamsa so there had to be some trouble in the progeny of the wife of this native during this Dasha period. His wife had a miscarriage on 10 May 2005 when he was under the Rashiyanka Dasha of Capricorn-Cancer ( February 2005 to July 2005) in his chart. The Atamakaraka is in Cancer in both Rashi chart and Saptamsa chart.
Later he was blessed with a baby girl on 22 January 2007 during his Rashiyanka Dasha of Capricorn-Scorpio. In the Rashi chart the 5th house from Scorpio is under the aspect of Putrakaraka Saturn.
This is the chart of my friend who asked me a question about his career in January 2013. He was working in a technical profile in a mobile repair service center of Samsung. He was under the Rashiyanka Dasha of Aquarius-Libra ( January 2013 to September 2013) then. Aquarius is the 8th house from the Atamakaraka in Rashi chart. From the sub period sign Libra the Atamakaraka was place in the 10th house showing an anxiety towards career. Libra also had his Amatayakaraka planet conjoined with Ganatikaraka showing the coming disputes at work place. The 10th Pada was in Pisces falling in the 6th house from the sub period Rashi Libra. I predicted him a loss of job during the operation of this Libra sub period due to some quarrel in the office.
He had serious disputes with his bosses in the next couple of months and later he left his job sometime in the August 2013. The next question was asked by him about getting the new job. This was easy for me to predict as now the sub period of Scorpio had arrive from 26th of September 2013. The Amatayakaraka Mars is giving aspect to the 10th house from Scorpio so he was expected to get the new job very quickly. He got the new job in a travel agency and joined there in the first week of December 2013. Now he will get the Rashiyanka Dasha of Pisces from September this year. I have already predicted him about another job change as his Amatayakaraka will be falling in the 8th from Dasha Rashi Pisces.
Before I proceed to give some more practical cases, I would like to pause here to make clear an important point for readers. In making an astrological analysis of a horoscope for applying any kind of Rashi Dasha one must first thoroughly examine the Raj Yoga’s and Dhan Yoga’s as per classics. I would advocate readers to read the Raj Yoga’s and Dhan Yoga given by Saga Parashara and MahaRashi Jaimini in their respective texts. In the Raj Yoga Adhaya in Brihat Parashar Hora Shastra and in Jaimini Sutras the sages have considered Atamakaraka , Amatayakaraka , Putrakaraka and 5th lord mainly in the making of Raj Yoga’s . The conjunction or mutual aspect of Moon and Venus is also considered as a good Raj Yoga. The conjunction or mutual aspect of lagna lord and 5th lord is taken as a Raj Yoga as per Jaimini Sutras.
The noticeable point is that ‘Darakaraka’ has not been taken for conferring any Raj Yoga. Neither Sage Parashara nor MahaRashi Jaimini has given any Raj Yoga by Darakaraka. I also don’t use Darakaraka for making any Jaimini Raj Yoga in a horoscope and only take the Raj Yoga’s propounded by Sage Parashara and MahaRashi Jaimini in their respective texts. The Darakaraka should be used as the karaka for spouse, marriage, relationships, death and serious illness. I have observed that when Darakaraka get associated with Atamakaraka and/or Ganatikaraka then it can give serious illness during the concerned Dasha period. In this paper I have not used Darakaraka for making any kind of Jaimini Raj Yoga is the point which I wanted to make clear.
I will now continue to show some more practical cases of Rashiyanka Dasha.

This young man got admission in the course of Electronic engineering in year 2002. It was the Rashiyanka Dasha of Aries ( 2001 to 2006 ) operating in his chart then. The fifth house from Aries has Amatayakaraka Mars along with Venus under the aspect of Putrakaraka Saturn and Sun. It confirm professional education in a technical field during the Dasha of Aries. He complted his engineering course in July 2006 during the Aries-Pisces period in Rashiyanka Dasha. The Amatayakaraka Mars giving aspect to the 10th house from Aries and 11th house from Pisces ensured an immediate placement for him. However, since the Amatayakaraka Mars was falling in the 6th house from the sub period sign Pisces it also gave him serious disputes with his boss.
Then came the Rashiyanka Dasha of Taurus which gave him a new job in technical profile in the HCL which is a very reputed IT company. He joined HCL in March 2007 and since then he is working there only. The Amatayakaraka Mars is giving aspect to the 12th house from Taurus showing change in job. In Dashamsha the Amatayakaraka is place in Aquarious the 10th house from Dasha Rashi Taurus which is excellent. Moreover, Taurus is the 10th house from Karakamsha. Also notice here that Taurus has two benefic planets, Jupiter and Venus, in Kendra from it in the Rashi chart and two malefics Sun and Saturn are in the 6th house from it which gives this Dasha Rashi a great strenght.
His new job was in Bangalore and he had to stay away from home most of the time for the next few years. He got very good promotions in his job and later in year 2013 his company sent him to USA on some project. Since then he is travelling to USA very frequently.

The native is a post graduate in economics from Delhi University. He was struggling in his career during the Rashiyanka Dasha of Aries.In the first half of this Dasha he was in a private job.In the second half of Aries Rashiyanka Dasha he started a business of virtual events and failed to establish it properly. Aries is the 8th house from his Karakamsha lagna. The Ganatikaraka is place in the 10th house from Aries showing obstructions in career.Although the Amatayakaraka was well place in the 11th house from Aries but at the same time it was giving aspect to the 8th house of this Dasha Rashi which was not a welcome thing.
He close down his business of virtual event and went to Canada on the immigration visa with his family ( wife and two children) in May 2012. The immigration visa was applied in the name of his spouse who was in government job then. It happen during the Rashiyanka Dasha of Taurus which is the Rashi of 12th house here. The Taurus is also the 10th house from his Pada lagna. The Amatayakaraka Saturn, Matrikaraka Moon and Darakaraka Mars all are giving aspect to the 12th house from Dasha Rashi Taurus expalining this event amply.
When I saw this chart in 2013 I told the wife of this native that her husband will not be able to settle in a proper career there.My prediction was based on the presence of Atamakaraka in the running Dasha Taurus along with malefic Rahu. Moreover the Ganatikaraka was giving aspect to the Dasha Rashi Taurus in Rashi chart and in Dashamsha the Taurus is taking the lordship of 8th house. The Dasha of Atamakaraka has to give him a difficult time. The native could not get an establish job there and family started toying with the idea of coming back to India again.

This native is in the field of software marketing and at present holding a very good position in an IT company. He discuss his horoscope with me way back in December 2011.He was then running with the Rashiyanka Dasha of Pisces-Leo ( 4 December 2011 to March 2012). I gave him a prediction at that time that between the March and June 2012 the situation will take such a turn that he may have to change his job. He was a bit surprise at this astrological reading of mine. My reasoning was based on the study of Vimshottari, Chara Dasha and Rashiyanka Dasha combine on his chart. In Rashiyanka Dasha the Pisces-Virgo period was going to start from 4th of March 2012.
The sub period Rashi Virgo has his Atamakaraka Venus there receiving the aspect of malefics Rahu and Ganatikaraka Saturn. The Amatayakaraka Mercury was in the 6th house from Dasha Rashi Pisces and it was in the 12th hosue from the anterDasha Rashi Virgo showing the strong possibility of a job change. Additionally the Dasha Rashi Pisces is the 6th house from Pada lagna Libra and the anter Dasha Rashi Virgo is the 12th house from Pada lagna.

In the next Dasha of Aries he got very good promotions in his job and now he is earning very handsomely. He also took admission in the PHD course during this Dasha of Aries.

This is the chart of girl who is a qualified Charted Accountant and was preparing for the Indian Civil Services competition in year 2013.Her chart was given to me by someone in June 2013 for predicting her career prospects. I calculated Rashiyanka Dasha on her chart after finding her lagna lord Moon in its Moola Trikona Rashi Taurus and friendly Navamsha sign Gemini.
Order of Dasha and number of years in Rashiyanka Dasha :
Gemini ………………………… from 1988 to 1998

This young lady got married some time in year 2012 when she was under Virgo-Taurus Rashiyanka Dasha in her chart. She was then working on a very good position in the famous audit company Prime Waterhouse Coopers (PWC). But at the instance of her in-laws she had to leave her high paying job immediately after her marriage. See the placement of Darakaraka Mars in the 7th house of Taurus showing marriage and Amatayakaraka Mercury falling in the 8th from this sub period Rashi explaining the discontinuance from career.
When I saw this chart she was under the period of Virgo-Gemini from June 2013 to March 2014 in Rashiyanka Dasha. In Vimshottari it was Rahu-Moon Dasha in operation from July 2013 to January 2015. The Amatayakaraka Mercury, Putrakaraka Sun and Ganatikaraka Saturn were giving aspect to both the Dasha Rashi’s Virgo and Gemini. I predicted a government job in some education department or job in teaching field in a University in the next 10 months during the operation of this Virgo-Gemini Rashiyanka Dasha. Sometime in early 2014 the young lady got the offer from her previous employer PWC to work as an independent consultant for their foreign auditing projects. Her company sent her to many countries on project work.It was the Virgo-Cancer period in Rashiyanka Dasha when she travelled many countries for her consultancy work. The 10th pada is place in Gemini which is the 12th house from the sub period sign Cancer. The Amatayakaraka Mercury giving aspect to the 12th house from Cancer also explains her foreign stay for the purpose of job project.
