Yogas in the chart
Classical combinations present at birth, and the Mahadasha that ripened each one.
Raj Yoga
2 combinationsThe 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.
- Mars (lord of H7) conjunct with Venus (lord of H1) in GeminiVenus MD · 1969–1989
- Sun (lord of H4) conjunct with Mercury (lord of H5) in Cancer
Raj Yoga (Yogakaraka)
Saturn 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.
- Saturn is Yogakaraka — lord of houses 10 & 9 in Pisces
Dhana Yoga
A wealth lord placed in the house of the other wealth lord creates a natural flow of resources. This supports steady financial accumulation and income growth.
- Jupiter (11th lord) placed in 2nd house
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 (15° apart)
