What Is Atmakaraka?

In Jaimini astrology, the Atmakaraka is the planet with the highest degree in your birth chart (excluding Rahu and Ketu). It signifies your soul’s intention, unresolved karma, and the inner nature you are here to refine.

Sign ownership and strength do not decide it. It’s purely based on planetary longitude in the Rashi (D1) chart.

• Represents: karmic identity, inner growth path, core soul purpose

• Used for: understanding long-term life direction and personal development

What Is Darakaraka?

The Darakaraka is the planet holding the lowest degree in your chart (also excluding Rahu and Ketu). It reflects the partner you attract, relationship challenges, and themes around emotional connection and union.

This is especially relevant when analyzing marriage, long-term relationships, and the emotional patterns that repeat in partnerships.

• Represents: spouse, committed relationship dynamics, emotional intimacy

• Used for: relationship themes, compatibility analysis, marriage questions

How the Calculator Works

This tool analyzes your D1 (Rashi) chart and identifies:

• Your Atmakaraka – the planet with the highest degree (excluding Rahu/Ketu)

• Your Darakaraka – the planet with the lowest degree (excluding Rahu/Ketu)

• Their zodiac signs and relative importance

It follows Jaimini Karaka rules, using only the seven visible planets (Sun through Saturn). Rahu and Ketu are not used in this calculation.

Why These Karakas Matter

The Atmakaraka gives insight into what the soul is striving to overcome or perfect in this life.
The Darakaraka shows the soul's relational learning, what it must understand through others.

While most people focus on Moon signs or Lagna, the Jaimini Karakas reflect inner karmic contracts that are not always visible on the surface.
