Karakamsha Raj Yoga Calculator
What is the Karakamsha Raja Yoga?
The Karakamsha is the sign occupied by the Atmakaraka (AK) — the planet at the highest degree in the chart — when that planet is placed in the Navamsa (D9). In Jaimini astrology it is a key reference for the soul's path and for how inner purpose expresses in worldly life.
When benefics or exalted planets sit in Kendras (1st, 4th, 7th, 10th) from the Karakamsha, the combination forms a Karakamsha Raja Yoga for fame, power and spiritual or worldly elevation. Such a person often rises through qualities tied to the Atmakaraka's nature, with the angular support from the Karakamsha giving lasting visibility and authority.
The yoga's quality depends on which planet is the Atmakaraka, how strong the Kendra occupants are, and the overall Navamsa. Benefics from the Karakamsha elevate more gently than malefics, though exalted malefics can still grant power. The Dasha of the Atmakaraka or those angular planets brings the rise forward. Enter exact birth details so the AK and D9 are accurate, and read this Jaimini yoga alongside the Parashari chart for a complete picture. Fame or elevation tied to the soul planet is the distinctive promise of this Jaimini raja yoga. Exact birth time matters especially here, because the Atmakaraka and Navamsa both depend on it.
