Vedic

Dashas: Chara Mahadasha

Chara Dasha (Jaimini rasi-dasha: Mahadasha lord = sign, not planet). 12 Mahadashas of variable duration starting at lagna sign. Direction = forward for movable+dual signs (Aries/Cancer/Libra/Capricorn/Gemini/Virgo/Sagittarius/Pisces); reverse for fixed (Taurus/Leo/Scorpio/Aquarius). Per-sign duration = inclusive count from sign to its lord (in direction) minus 1; lord-in-own-sign → 12 years. Co-lord rule for Scorpio (Mars+Ketu) and Aquarius (Saturn+Rahu): pick the OTHER if exactly one is in the sign, else higher absolute longitude. Default variant = K.N. Rao (matches PyJHora chart_method=1 + JHora default + AstroSage).
