Yogas in the chart
Classical combinations present at birth, and the Mahadasha that ripened each one.
Budha-Aditya Yoga
Mercury and Sun together (without combustion) create sharp intellectual clarity, strong communication skills, and recognition through knowledge. This combination favours careers in learning, teaching, and analytical fields.
- Mercury and Sun conjunct in Cancer (12° apart)Mercury MD · 2019–2036
Dhana Yoga
The 2nd lord (wealth and family resources) placed in a kendra or trikona brings financial stability through personal effort and favourable circumstances.
- Moon (2nd lord) strongly placed in house 5 (Libra)
Raj Yoga
The connection between a kendra lord and a trikona lord creates Raj Yoga — one of the most powerful combinations for success, recognition, and elevated status in life. This yoga supports authority and meaningful achievement.
- Jupiter (lord of H7/10) in mutual aspect with Venus (lord of H5) in Sagittarius
Hamsa Yoga
Jupiter in its strongest position grants wisdom, ethical grounding, and good fortune. You attract respect through knowledge and are inclined toward teaching or guiding others.
- Jupiter in own sign in Sagittarius (house 7 from Lagna)Jupiter MD · 1984–2000
Sarala Yoga
The 8th lord contained within a dusthana protects against sudden upheavals. You have an unusual ability to navigate crises and emerge stronger.
- Saturn (8th lord) placed in house 12Saturn MD · 2000–2019
