Hi Ernst,

You explain that Jaimini tends to reason on the Rashis by numers (not symbol - Ariet like 1, Taurs like 2 ecc ). In your couse of Medical Astrology I have fond numerlogy view in the pdf. Have you got the focus course o readings about this argument that can connect with the sutras? 

 

tks

Is the interpretation of Jaimini's Rashis the same for houses? ex. Ariet (1 rashi) = 1 House = "rats and cats".

@bhima from what I remember, Jaimini refers to Parashara descriptions of the houses and only focuses on describing the Rasis. While there are a lot of similarities between houses and Rasis, they are not exactly the same (partly because houses can also represent/refer to specific people in someone’s life when the rasis do not)

no, not at all, do not relate Jaimini sign meanings to house.

That's strange, it seems your dictionary is flipping meanings of khecara with kheta. what dictionary is it? Also read this which confirms kheta meaning as I my dicionary has it. Kheta, Kheṭa, Kheṭā: 23 definitions (wisdomlib.org)
