Yogas in the chart
Classical combinations present at birth, and the Mahadasha that ripened each one.
Dhana Yoga
The conjunction of the 2nd lord (accumulated wealth) and 11th lord (gains and income) creates a powerful wealth combination. Financial growth comes through the significations of these planets.
- Moon (2nd lord) conjunct Mars (11th lord) in Cancer
Vimala Yoga
The 12th lord restricted to a dusthana minimizes unnecessary losses and expenses. Spiritual wisdom grows without the typical sacrifice of material comfort.
- Venus (12th lord) placed in house 6Venus MD · 1992–2012
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 Libra (house 4 from Moon, house 5 from Lagna)Jupiter MD · 1945–1949
