Since the knowledge on Jaimini script is somewhat hard to obtain and apply...I am starting this thread to post whatever I have on it and my way to make this art easy.
The Jaimini takes on rashi(sign) movement instead of planetary movements like vimshottari
The rashi system is divided into 4 quarters:
1st quarter consists of Aries, Taurus and Gemini
2nd quarter consists of Cancer, Leo and Virgo
3rd quarter consists of Libra, Scorpio and Sagittarius
4th quarter consists of Capricorn, Aquarius and Pisces
1st and 3rd Quarter are called Odd-Footed ; Similarly 2nd and 4th Quarter are called Even-Footed
How to know the direction of MD progression, as the progress is not constant as in vimshottari
In order to know which direction will the rashi MD progress, one should take a look at the 9H
.If the sign occupying 9H is Odd-Footed, the direction would be ANTI-CLOCKWISE
If the sign occupying 9H is Even-Footed, the direction would be CLOCKWISE
The period calculation in each MD is another matter....they are not fixed and varies from person to person
Check if the rashi is Even-Footed or Odd-Footed...
for Even-Footed, start counting clockwise from the next rashi(leaving the current one...say if rashi is aries, then count from pisces) till u reach the rashi lord(count the rashi containing the lord as well)
for Odd-Footed, start counting clockwise from the next rashi(leaving the current one...say if rashi is virgo, then count from libra) till u reach the rashi lord(count the rashi containing the lord as well)
If the lord is in the rashi itself, then the period as 12 yrs For dual lord planets(Aquarius and Scorpio)a) If one of the lord is sitting in the rashi, then count to the next lord
b) If both are sitting in the rashi, then take the period as 12 yrs
c) If both lords are in different planet, then(1) Check which one is sitting with most planets...count to it
If same no. of planets are sitting then check who is sitting with higher Karakas
If no planets are sitting with them, then (2) Check which is getting most aspects by planets
If that is also equal or there are none, then (3) Check which is stronger
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I have found that the Even-Foot and Odd-Foot is at times confusing, so when you start to calculate the rashi MDs try these steps
A) Make a cross(likein graph paper...x-axis and y axis extending both sides..+ve & -ve; dont name it though )
B) Make a rough circle through the center
C) Cross(X TYPE) the intersection of the circle and X-Axis...
D) ONE TIME ONLY...Write numbers 1-12 like we do in chart...1,2,3 will be in (-,+) part; 4,5,6 will be in (-,-) part and so on
Now see what we have...each quarter of the circle represents the Quarter of a circle...each number represents the rashi number inside that quarter...Each Quarter and V(of the signX) together show the direction...thus showing effective direction for calculation
