Yogas in the chart

Classical combinations present at birth, and the Mahadasha that ripened each one.

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 8

Gaja Kesari Yoga

Jupiter in a kendra from Moon creates Gaja Kesari — a yoga of wisdom, reputation, and lasting influence. It brings respect in social circles, good judgment, and the ability to inspire others.

  • Jupiter in Aquarius (house 4 from Moon, house 9 from Lagna)

Raj Yoga

A 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.

  • Venus (lord of H5) placed in kendra (house 7)Venus MD · 1987–2007

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.

  • Mars (11th lord) placed in 2nd houseMoon MD · 2013–2023
