Jaimini Argala from BPHS chapter 31 on whole-sign houses: for each bhāva see whether the 2nd, 4th and 11th signs from that house carry grahas (argala) and whether the 12th, 10th and 3rd signs are occupied (virodhārgala). The table is read-first—no decorative wheel—so you can scan all twelve targets at once. Birth time is required because every count starts from the ascendant; unknown time shows an explanation instead of a misleading noon lagna.

FAQ
Argala questions
Which houses form primary argala?
The 2nd, 4th and 11th signs counted from the house under view, per BPHS ch. 31.
What is virodhārgala?
Obstruction from the 12th, 10th and 3rd signs; occupancy is shown but not scored into a single verdict.
Is nullification calculated?
No—this view only marks occupied vs empty slots, as the classical nullification debate is left to your study.
Why whole-sign?
The projection uses the same whole-sign radix as the workbench; no alternate house system is mixed in.
Can I use this without birth time?
No—the ascendant anchors all twelve rows; without time the chart is hidden honestly.
