Please refer to rashi drishti concept articles if you are not aware of how Rashi drishtis work (example a planet in a dual sign will aspect all the other dual signs via the Rashi aspect). Also remember that among special Lagnas, HL = Hora Lagna (indicates wealth) and GL = Ghati Lagna indicates power and authority.<\/p>\n<p>Now if a planet aspects both the Lagna and the HL, then its a Yogada Yoga giving Wealth and prosperity<br \/>\nIf the planet aspects both the Lagna and the GL, then the forming Yogada yoga gives Power &amp; authority<\/p>\n<p>Likewise if a planet aspects all 3 &#8211; Lagna, HL and GL then a Maha Yogada yoga is formed which gives power, wealth and authority to the native<br \/>\nThese yogas get activated during the dasas of the planet which is involved in forming the Yogada or Maha Yogada yogas<\/p>\n<p>XXII) <strong>Naabhasa Yogas<\/strong> &#8211; These Yogas are very broad\/ generic in nature. I do not pay much heed to them. These are formed when the 7 planets (except Rahu\/ Ketu) are placed in x number of signs. x can range from 1 to 7. Depending on &#8216;x&#8217; a specific yoga is formed which can be positive or negative. Example when x =1, Gola yoga is formed which is negative. When x = 4, Kedaara yoga is formed which is positive. It is important to know that Naabhasa yogas do exist, although I do not give them much importance as they are very broad Yogas and will not act independently. Hence I do not discuss these in detail here<\/p>\n<p>XXIII) <strong>Kaal- Sarp Yoga<\/strong>&#8211; When all the 7 planets excluding the nodes are situated on one side of the Rahu- Ketu axis, Kaal Sarp yoga is formed. Please refer to the article on Kaal-Sarp Yoga in the advanced Topics section which details this yoga in depth. Generally, this is deemed as a negative formation<\/p>\n<p>XIV) <strong>Amala Yoga<\/strong> &#8211; When only natural (not functional) benefics occupy the 10th house from the Lagna or Moon, this yoga is formed. It makes the person virtuous in his actions in day to day life for which he will earn a good reputation in society. Example Capricorn Lagna and only Venus sits in the 10th house of Libra sign, Amala Yoga is formed, in this case a strong one as Venus is in Mooltrikona sign and if non combust and direct in motion, will be strongly placed<\/p>\n<p>XV) <strong>Kalpdruma\/ Parijata<\/strong> &#8211; This is a highly strong and potent Yoga which generally elevates the entire horoscope and hence the potency of other positive Yogas in the horoscope to a large extent. This Yoga is based on the dipositor principle. As mentioned before, a planet gains strength when its sign and\/ or Navamsa depositor is in high dignity (example own house or exalted).<\/p>\n<p>Parijata Yoga is formed when the Lagna lord, its depositor and the Rashi and Navamsa depositors of the depositor of Lagna lord are all situated in a Kendra (1,4,7,10) or Kona (1,5,9) and are in high dignity &#8211; i.e. exalted or own house and not combust (bright).<\/p>\n<p>This Yoga increases the vitality of the entire horoscope and the other positive yogas in the horoscope will manifest more intensely due to this Yoga being present in a horoscope<\/p>\n<p>XVI) <strong>Shubha Yoga<\/strong> &#8211; A Kartaari yoga as has been discussed before. This is positive. It forms when the 12th house and 2nd house deposit generically benefic planets (Jupiter, venus, mercury and Moon). This gives strength to the Lagna (as it is helmed between 2 benefics) and if the lagna also has a benefic, this is even stronger<\/p>\n<p>XVII) <strong>Ashubha Yoga<\/strong> &#8211; A Paap Kartaari yoga (negative) where the 12th and 2nd house deposit generically malefic planets (Saturn, rahu, ketu, mars, Sun). Since Lagna is now helmed between malefics, the power and auspiciousness of the 1st house is greatly reduced<\/p>\n<p>XVIII) <strong>Pravrajya Yoga<\/strong> &#8211; When 4 or more planets are situated in the same sign, especially if in a Kendra or Kona house, this Yoga forms. The more the number of planets, the stronger the Yoga. This indicates too much energy in one aspect\/ area of life and hence a mismatch of energies in a particular aspect of life for the individual. Such people will come across as having intense personalities and over a long period of time, they tend to become detached towards the materialistic pursuits of life. Keep in mind that detachment does not equate to sainthood always. Even a person going through the daily grind can have a tendency to be detached to his daily work. This yoga is especially pronounced if it occurs in the 10th bhaav as 10th bhaav represents our career\/ job\/ social status and Karma (actions)<\/p>\n<p>XXIX) <strong>Tapaswi Yoga<\/strong> &#8211; Tapaswi means a Saint. When Saturn, Ketu and Venus are either conjunct (same sign) or in exact trines to each other (same nakshatra) then this Yoga occurs. Saturn is a detaching planet by nature. Ketu represents Moksha or renunciation and detachment from all materialistic pursuits of life. Venus on the other hand represents the pleasures and attachments of life including romance, marriage, wine\/ dine, luxuries, vehicles, etc. When Venus is conjunct or affected by the austere planets Saturn and Ketu, the person will not be attached to materialistic pursuits in life. They will either not have too much materialistic possessions, or even if they do, they will not be attached to money\/ materialism too much. They generally tend to like dedicated, altruistic and austere pursuits in life<\/p>\n<p>XXX) <strong>Vasumati Yoga<\/strong> &#8211; This is a positive and wealth giving yoga. Upaachya bhaavs are &#8211; 3rd, 6th, 10th and 11th. These bhaavs improve with age and time as life progresses. When a lot of generic benefics\u00a0 (Jupiter, venus, mercury and Moon) are placed in Upaachya bhaavs, this Yoga occurs. Thus if all 4 of the generic benefics are placed strongly in the 3rd, 6th, 10th or 11th bhaav of a horoscope, a potent Vasumati Yoga is formed which gives wealth and status to the native<\/p>\n<p>So we have covered 30 kinds of important Yogas (both good and bad). As I mentioned before, there are thousands of permutations and combination possible of the planets and hence as many Yogas in theory. This list of 30, is hence, far from comprehensive. The reader is advised to read 300 important combinations by Dr. B.V.Raman for an indepth dive into Yoga formation.<\/p>\n<p>That said, the last 3 articles serve to enlighten the reader with some very important Yogas which the reader should familiarize themselves with for a good reading of a horoscope in addition to the other chapter in this &#8220;Lessons&#8221; series.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Part\u00a0three for the Yoga Primer- XXI) Yogada &amp; Maha Yogada &#8211; These are based on Jamini principles.
