Yogas in the chart
Classical combinations present at birth, and the Mahadasha that ripened each one.
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 4 & 5 in ScorpioSaturn MD · 1989–2008
Harsha Yoga
The 6th lord confined to a dusthana neutralizes obstacles and enemies. Challenges transform into unexpected advantages, and health resilience is strengthened.
- Jupiter (6th lord) placed in house 12Jupiter MD · 1973–1989
Vimala Yoga
The 12th lord restricted to a dusthana minimizes unnecessary losses and expenses. Spiritual wisdom grows without the typical sacrifice of material comfort.
- Mercury (12th lord) placed in house 8Mercury MD · 2008–2025
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 Taurus (13° apart)Mercury MD · 2008–2025
