Argala
Sanskrit for a bolt or latch. A Jaimini technique in which certain houses — counted the 2nd, 4th and 11th from a given one — have leverage over it, while the 12th, 10th and 3rd from that same house obstruct that leverage. The intervention lands only when the intervening house holds more grahas than the house obstructing it.
