Yogas in the chart
Classical combinations present at birth, and the Mahadasha that ripened each one.
Raj Yoga
2 combinationsA trikona lord placed in a kendra creates Raj Yoga by position — the auspiciousness of the trikona combines with the power of the kendra. This supports recognition, authority, and purposeful achievement.
- Mercury (lord of H9) placed in kendra (house 1)
- Mars (lord of H4) conjunct with Venus (lord of H5) in ScorpioVenus MD · 1939–1952
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 Capricorn (14° apart)
Raj Yoga (Yogakaraka)
Venus rules both a kendra and a trikona for your Lagna, making it the single most auspicious planet in your chart. Its placement and strength directly shape your career trajectory and life purpose.
- Venus is Yogakaraka — lord of houses 10 & 5 in ScorpioVenus MD · 1939–1952
