# Jaimini: Running Dasha Summary

`POST /vedic/jaimini/dasha-summary`

Convenience aggregate: returns the running Mahadasha for Chara, Sthira, and Shoola at `targetDate` (default = now). Same builders as the dedicated `/dashas/{chara,sthira,shoola}/maha` endpoints; this one returns three running periods in a single call.

## Request body

- JaiminiDashaSummary — Natal chart plus the target date for the Jaimini dasha summary.
  - `date` string, required
  - `time` string, required
  - `timezoneOffset` number, nullable — Hours from UTC at the given moment, not minutes. Fractional zones are hours too: 5.5 for India, 5.75 for Nepal, -3.5 for Newfoundland. Defaults to 0, meaning UTC.
  - `latitude` number, required
  - `longitude` number, required
  - `houseSystem` string
  - `name` string
  - `city` string
  - `zodiacType` 'tropical' | 'sidereal'
  - `ayanamsaId` number, nullable
  - `ayanamsa` 'fagan-bradley' | 'lahiri' | 'de-luce' | 'raman' | 'krishnamurti' | 'kp' | 'yukteshwar' | 'jn-bhasin' | 'true-citra' | 'djwhal-khul' — Sidereal school by name. Lahiri when omitted. Equivalent to ayanamsaId; send either.
  - `cosmogram` boolean
  - `targetDate` string
  - `targetTime` string
  - `targetTzOffset` number, nullable
