The arudha of the 12th, Jaimini's marriage point, with its limits spelled out.

This chapter is part of Gurukul Plus

The foundational curriculum — grahas, rashis, bhavas, nakshatras, dashas and how to read a chart with them — is free to read here and free to practise in the app. Jaimini Essentials: Karakas & Arudhas is one of the advanced chapters, and its teaching text comes with Plus.

Plus is ₹1,999 a year, paid once. Nothing auto-renews. It opens every advanced chapter and raises your saved charts from one to four, so you can work on family charts alongside your own.

Writing up your experience in the community earns Plus days too — see the subreddit.

The Upapada Lagna
The arudha of the 12th house (A12): the Jaimini point read for marriage as a relationship that takes shape in the world.
Reading Jaimini points without over-reading
Each point is one witness. Count agreement across both systems, flag fragile assignments, and never read looks, dates or verdicts from a single karaka.
