JAIMINI-06)Codified in Jaimini Upadesha Sutras Adhyaya 2, Pada 1 & Pada 2 and Brihat Parashara Hora Shastra Chapters 44 & 50, Shoola Dasha & Sthira Dasha (Longevity & Trinal Cycles) operates under the mathematical invariant 3 Pairs: (Lagna + Hora Lagna), (Lagna + Moon), (Saturn + 8th Lord) ; Sthira = 7/8/9 Years: Before evaluating Shoola or Sthira Dasha, Jaimini determines the vitality compartment (Alpayu 0–32y, Madhyayu 32–64/70y, or Purnayu 64/70–100+y) by checking the sign modalities (Movable, Fixed, Dual) of three independent pairs, (1) Lagna Lord and 8th Lord, (2) Lagna and Moon, and (3) Lagna and Hora Lagna, while Sthira Dasha assigns fixed durations of 7 years to movable signs, 8 years to fixed signs, and 9 years to dual signs (totaling 96 years).
SHASTRIC MECHANICSMathematical Formulation & Structural Rules of Shoola Dasha & Sthira Dasha (Longevity & Trinal Cycles)
In each of the three Ayurdaya pairs, two movable signs (or one fixed and one dual) indicate Long Life (Purnayu); two fixed signs (or one movable and one dual) indicate Short Life (Alpayu); and two dual signs (or one movable and one fixed) indicate Middle Life (Madhyayu). Majority agreement across the three pairs (or the Lagna + Hora Lagna pair as tie-breaker, modified by Kakshya Vriddhi or Hrasa from Jupiter and Saturn) locks the compartment. Shoola Dasha then progresses through the twelve signs at a uniform 9 years per sign starting from the stronger of the 1st or 7th house, pinpointing health vulnerabilities during the Trinal Rashis of the stronger 2nd/8th Rudra lord.

| Ayurdaya / Dasha Construct | Governing Formula (Jaimini Adhyaya 2, Pada 1) | Modality / Duration Rule | Diagnostic Function |
|---|---|---|---|
| Three-Pair Ayurdaya | Pair 1: (1st Lord, 8th Lord) ; Pair 2: (Lagna, Moon) ; Pair 3: (Lagna, Hora Lagna) |
Mov+Mov / Fix+Dual = Long ; Dual+Dual / Mov+Fix = Middle ; Fix+Fix / Mov+Dual = Short |
Establishes the macro vitality ceiling before interpreting micro-dasha crises in classical Jyotish horoscopy. |
| Kakshya Vriddhi (Upgrade) | Jupiter + Venus in Lagna/7th or Atmakaraka exalted with benefics |
Strengthens compartment by one tier (Chapter Middle to Long) |
Explains how high dharmic and benefic fortification overrides nominal modality limits in classical Jyotish horoscopy. |
| Sthira Dasha | Initiated from Brahma Graha's Rashi |
Movable Signs = 7 Years ; Fixed Signs = 8 Years ; Dual Signs = 9 Years |
4 Movable (28y) + 4 Fixed (32y) + 4 Dual (36y) = 96 Solar Years in classical Jyotish horoscopy. |
| Shoola Dasha & Rudra | 9.00 Years per Rashi from stronger of 1st or 7th house |
Rudra = Stronger of 2nd and 8th lords; Shoola Rashi = Rudra's sign and its 5th/9th trines |
Identifies periods requiring preventive medical and protective vigilance in classical Jyotish horoscopy. |
