In continuation for Yogas Part I, below are some more positive as well as negative Yogas-
X) Kahala Parivartana – A kind of Parivartana (exchange) Yoga where a non-dusthana bhav lord (dusthana is 6,8 and 12) interchanges signs with the lord of the 3rd house. This Yoga brings out fluctuations in destiny and success of an individual and rise and falls fluctuate in life. The 3rd house represents self effort and will power, but is a partial dusthana house as well. So as an example when the lord of 10th and 3rd interchange, either the profession/ career of the native will see many ups and downs OR the person will have to make a lot of effort with minimal success in the beginning and true rewards for the efforts will come much later in life.
XI) Dainya Parivartana – A kind of Parivartana yoga where a non dusthana lord exchanges signs with a dusthana lord. Example lord of 5th house interchanges signs with the lord of the 6th house. This is a negative Yoga and the manifestation is typically struggles and problems related to the 2 houses involved.
XII) Kartari Yogas – Kartari = scissors. These can be both Negative and Positive depending on the involved planets. For these Yogas, consider ONLY the Generic nature of planets and not the Functional nature. Meaning for this analysis Jupiter, Venus are always positive. Mercury and Moon are positive when bright and sitting with benefics. Saturn, Rahu, Ketu, Mars and Sun are always Negative.
When a particular house is surrounded by malefics on both sides, Paap Kartari Yoga is formed (Paap = sin) and is a negative Yoga which will damage and delay the significations of the affected house.
Inversely when a given bhaav is surrounded by 2 benefics, a Shubha Kartaari Yoga is formed. This enhances and amplifies the positive significations of the involved house and helps the bhaav prosper and flourish without many problems.
Example Sun in 6th, saturn in 7th and Rahu in 8th bhaav. In this example the 7th bhaav is battered because it has a natural malefic saturn and is also surrounded on both sides (6th and 8th bhaav respectively) by natural malefics. This forms a Paap Kartari Yoga. This will damage the marital prospects of the individual, even though the final outcome will depend on the strength of the 7th bhaav along with its lord.
XIII) Daridra Yogas – Daridra = poverty. This is not to be taken literally everytime this Yoga forms in a horoscope. However this yoga generally indicates struggles in the field of finances for the individual. It forms when ascendant is occupied and aspected ONLY by Natural malefics (not functional malefics) and the exception is that the natural malefics should NOT rule either the 9th bhaav or the 10th bhaav. If they do, the negative Yoga does not occur.
Example – Leo rising with Lagna having saturn and Ketu and Jupiter, mercury and venus do not aspect the ascendant. Daridra Yoga occurs. In case Leo has only Sun and Mars (even though both natural malefics) daridra Yoga is Not formed as in this case the ascendant has the 9th lord in it as well as the ascendant lord itself. This infact is a strong RajYoga.
XIV) Kemadruma Yoga – This occurs when there is no planet on either side of Moon as well as in conjunction with the moon (Rahu and Ketu do not count). Further Moon should not be in Kendra (1,4,7,10). It is a negative Yoga.
Moon is the mind and is impressionable and emotional by nature. If no planet is near Moon and Moon is also not in a Kendra bhaav, it will feel lonely and confused. Typically such individuals are socially shy and/ or awkward and can be introverts or misfits in general life. They feel lonely even when in company of others as they constantly feel they are not understood by others.
I feel if the above conditions are met, Kemadruma Yoga occurs to some extent. However a 100% kemadruma Yoga occurs only when the above conditions are met and also no planet sits in kendra bhaav from the ascendant as well.
Either ways, usually in the 2nd half of life, such individuals improve their depressive/ lonely tendencies and they become more (relative to before) social and ‘normal’.
XV) Shraapit Yoga – Shraapit = cursed. This Yoga occurs when Saturn and Rahu reside in the same sign in a horoscope. Further if they are also in the same Nakshatra, then it will be even stronger in manifestation. If they are more than 15 degrees apart, the Yoga is formed only mildly.
Typically the actions of the individual (saturn) can be shady or hidden (rahu) and the destiny of the person can be very delayed in manifestation in life. Such individuals might have to struggle quiet a bit for minimal reward of their efforts.
However, for Venus ruled ascendants or Saturn ruled ascendants, Rahu and Saturn become functional benefics and hence the Yoga does not cause too much damage. Also if this occurs in the 3rd house or 11th house, the Yoga can give much material success to the individual in addition to some blockages in progress. It is the worst to be formed in the 8th, 12th, 1st or 2nd house of a horoscope. Dignity of saturn and rahu and aspects on the combination are vital to be considered before giving blanket predictions of disaster related to the bhaav where both these planets are situated together
XVI) Gaj-Kesari Yoga – This yoga is a positive one. It is formed when Moon and Jupiter are in Angles to each other. This implies when Moon and Jupiter are in positions which are 1st, 4th, 7th or 10th from each other in the horoscope. In this case the individual gets strength to moon (mind) and Jupiter (luck and growth) and is lucky and successful due to good judgement and emotional status. The person might be spiritually inclined and be lucky to have blessings from some mentor/ guru in life. However the dignity of moon and jupiter is vital to be seen as well as the functional nature of moon and jupiter in the horoscope as per the ascendant.
XVII) Guru- Mangal Yoga – When mars and Jupiter either conjunct or are in opposition to each other (1st or 7th from each other) and both have good dignity in the horoscope, the actions of the individual are energetic and righteous more often than not. This is as Mars represents actions/ energy and Jupiter is righteous and expansive by nature
XVIII) Visha Yoga – Visha = poison. When Saturn is deep conjunct with Moon in the basic horoscope, this negative yoga is formed. Such a person has a tendency to depression as well as psychological issues in life, especially if moon is low in dignity/ shadbal. They seem to be very serious in nature and will easily get upset and sad over trivial issues. However if both planets are in good dignity, then the person can get mass fame as well. This is because saturn represents the masses (general people) and Moon represents fame
XIX) Angaarak Yoga – When Mars and Rahu conjunct in a horoscope, the person is prone to anger and violence. Such individuals can have a big ego or anger issues and can go off the handle in a second. They can be normal one minute and violent the next. Typically this will affect the bhaav such a yoga is placed in very negatively. However the damage is much lower in the 3rd or 11th bhaavs where such a combination can give great material benefits to the person. On the positive side, if the planets are in good dignity, such a person has a never ending fighting spirit and can do wonders as sportsmen, army or police personnel or fields where great courage and activity is required
XX) Chandra Mangal Yoga – When Moon and Mars are in conjunction or opposition, this Yoga is formed. By itself it is a positive yoga which gives a sharp mind and powers of concentration to the person. It makes the person logical and ‘street wise’ which in turn gives them a good ability to make money. However if the planets involved are low in dignity and/ or afflicted, the person will have anger issues along with blood disorders as well as bad relations with one’s mother
I will discuss more positive and negative yogas in part III. The idea is not to cover the entire list of 1000s of yogas. But to give a good taste for the few important ones which will get a student’s mind thinking about Yogas in the right direction
Your view on rajyoga produced by rahu and ketu?
Rahu & Ketu are reflective planets. If they sit with a raj yoga planet, they will tend to give the raj yoga instead of that planet. example Ketu and mars conjunct for Leo lagna, Ketu will give the effects of mars and mars itself will become a bit shaky in its dasa
thank you
some astrologers are of the opinion that yogas like neechbhanga raj yoga and vipreet raj yoga don’t exist in classical text thus donot believe in such yogas. your views on this?
My opinion is that they exist very much
best way to learn. Find rodden rating AA horoscopes (thousands of them available when you google)
go through each in detail. One can only learn via case studies not by what ‘they say’
thank you for your reply. I must ask your as you have seen many charts over the years that do astrological remedies work in your observation.
secondly as you observed many charts and the people of such charts. Did their life turn out as your thought or were there differences and if there were what may have been the cause?
Hi
Astrological remedies work but only to a limited extent and also more on a psychological basis. In most tough times, its easier to get by thinking positive and having hope of the light at the end of the tunnel
Not everything is set in stone, even if it is, that level of perfection in astrology is hard to achieve for anyone. Hence astrology should be used just as a guide and one should continue to do the best effort for everything in life
I have moon in 10th house singh rashi. mangal ketu in 11th house kanya rashi. Sun mercury and venus in 12th house Tula rashi. Saturn in 1st house vrishchik lagna. Dob 18/10/1987 8:45am at Ranchi.
Does it form shubh kartari yog in 11th house and paap kartari yoga in 12th house?
you can see for yourself regarding kartaari yogas. if a rashi is surrounded by generic benefics (Jupiter/ venus/ mercury/ moon) then it is shuba kartaari if by malefics then paap kartaari. but in both cases, both the 12th and 2nd from the rashi have to be occupied and not just one
Hi VS
Is Parivartan yoga between Moon (4th Lord) and Saturn (10th Lord) in Kendra diminishes the impact of ‘Visha Yoga’ you are talking about?
Thanks
sure, if the lords involved rule good houses from the lagna, the yoga is always improved
With regards to shraapit yoga I have rahu with exalted saturn and mercury in 8th house of pieces ascendant with saturn at 16degree and rahu at 14degree aspected by jupiter(lagna lord) from 4th house and mars from 5th house would i suffer from shrapit yoga even if saturn is exalted in lagna and in own house of aquarius in 7th house in navamsa with rahu also in same house again
this is also neechabhang raj yoga and will give wealth from inheritance/ legacy
Dear Sir,
About Amala Yoga, you mentioned general beneficial planets must present in 10th house from moon or Lagna. In my case from moon sign Capricorn, venus is in libra along with Saturn. Is it confers Amala Yoga, since Saturn is present in 10th house along with general benific Venus ?
partial amla yoga. however more importantly this gives 2 mahapurush yogas – sasa and malavya and a powerful raj yoga in the most active bhaav in the chart. the combination is great, unless combusted by sun within 8 degrees
Hi vivek sir
b v raman has praised chandra mangal yog in gemini sign.according to him chandra mangal yog in gemini sign is unique combination.please put your opinion on this combination
in case of Gemini, moon and mars together will imply the lords of 2nd and 11th together. that by itself is a dhan yoga for wealth and material achievement
Vivek sir
your reply is awesome.thanks a lot.
Hello Vs,
For leo lagna if jupiter is in 9th house of aries and mars in 5th house of saggitarus but in bhawa chalit jupiter goes to 8th house would such a jupiter give good result(it is also vargottam in navamsa ie in 5th house of aries)
jupiter will still tend to give good results
jupiter in 11th house in leo sign for libra lagna is it a good placement for jupiter being lord of 2 dushtana…would its mahadasa and antardasa be good or bad??
by itself it is not bad but its effects will depend on all the other planets
Vivek sir
If grah mallika yoga is formed by 8planets between 10th and 1st house ,can it be said that the native is very career oriented and will be successful in his career?also in this case lagna lord is placed in 10th house in own sign.sir how do you describe grah mallika yog
grah malika has to be seen in context of other yogas in the chart and not independently. Generally a good yoga to have
whichever house the lagna lord is usually placed in, defines the personality/ orientation of the individual and in 10th it implies that career/ social network and status forms a central part of a persons life. the strength and dignity of the planets involved will define the intensity of these yogas
Good morning vivek sir
Can krishna paksha moon be considered as natural benefic?
not always, depends on the lagna and aspects on the moon as well as bhaav and divisional placements
Thanks sir
Hello VS:
I think, according to BPHS, Sukla Paksha moon is a natural benefic and Krishna Paksha moon is a natural malefic. The JH author seems to say the same in his PDF.
in JHora you can customize this in the settings. I use 120 degrees or more away from the sun (doesnt matter waxing or waning) will be a benefic and else a malefic by general sense. Functional sense ofcourse depends on the lagna etc
Vivek sir
Does parivartan work in divisional charts?
only in the relevant dasa combinations when analyzing that area of life example career or job with d10
Thanks sir
In kali yuga, wouldn’t bad yogas be good (because it’s a materialistic world now)? For example, dainya parivartna yoga is bad, but it proved to be excellent for Indira gandhi who became pm under this yoga. ALso kim kardashin the celebrity became suddenly famous due to this yoga. So for kali yuga, maybe bad yogas are good in the materialistic sense.
any yoga has to be seen in totality. 1000s hve raj yogas so to speak. but the dignity of planets, degrees, balas, good vs the bad in a chart etc in the end dicates along with some intuition what the results will be
Hi VS
Thanks for what you are doing to dispel a lot of wrong information and providing people with a structured way of studying astrology – kudos and hats off to you!
My question is on Shraapit Dosha:
1) Does a retrograde Saturn conjunct with Rahu also cause Shraapit Dosha?
2) You mentioned it is worse if they are in the same nakshatra – is it because the conjunction is close in terms of degrees or is that related to that Nakshatra becoming -ve?
3) Such a Shraapit Yoga in 3rd house in Leo (retro Saturn 9 degrees away from Rahu in Purva Phalguni) – also opposite venus Ketu conjunction (only 1 degree apart) in 9th house – moon in Virgo, Gemini Ascendant. Jupiter in second. Sun/Mars/Mercury in 10th.
>>> a) What are the -ve impacts such a person will see in his life related to the Rahu – Ketu 3-9 axis?
>>> b) What solutions can the person work on and can he achieve success in life (career/wealth/family/spiritual growth/happiness) if he follows those remedies/solutions dutifully?
Thanks a lot!
1) yes
2) yes closeness matters in all yogas, good or bad. also same nakshatra and same rashi show a deeper bond than just same rashi
3) this one gets to be a non generic question and individual readings require a thorough analysis of the whole chart with all details, unfortunately I dont provide that here on this forum
Hi,
Saturn sits in 6 th of libra with 29 degree and venus is combines with mars in 9th of capricorn, does parivartan yoga occur? Lagna lord is venus as well.
yes
Good day Sir,
Just I came across a chart – D1 in which Lagna is Leo with Sun (which means depositor and lagnesh is Sun) and in D9 Sun is in Libra ; in D1 Venus is present in Libra (3rd house from lagna). As per definition – Lagna lord, his disposior, latter’s rasi & navamsa dispositors are all in own/exaltation sigh or kendra/kona.
Is this indicates presence of Kalpadruma Yoga ?
not fully, even though softwares might indicate it as such. since venus is a functional malefic for leo ascendant and in the defined example is not sitting in a kendra or kona (in 3rd bhaav) it is not fully a Kalpdruma yoga, though might be partially considered as such
I am a Gemini ascendant. Rahu occupies my 2nd house (cancer-moon),my fourth house is occupied by Saturn and Jupiter (Virgo -mercury),5th house occupied by Moon (Libra-Venus),my 8th house is occupied by Ketu,Mercury (Capricorn -Saturn),my 8th is occupied by Venus,Mars,and Sun (Aquarius -saturn)……Why everything is happening late in my life…?Is there any possibility of getting my Govt job…?
no clue sir. I dont do personal chart readings here. goodluck to you
From the high level details given, Jup and Sat must be both retrograde in your chart (look at the placement of your Sun). Most likely, this is the root cause of delays that you are experiencing in your life. Retro planets (and that too, such heavy ones) cause delays and behave in an erratic manner. Fact that they are forming a yoga in the 4th bhav delays its significations (home / happiness) and also the 10th bhav (career) that they aspect. Also, Jup & Saturn’s rashi dispositor mercury is in 8th conjunct ketu – so it is afflicted causing suffering (8th signification). Further, there is a parivartan happening between Sat and Mer which is further slowing down things and making you suffer.
Its quite likely that things will improve with time since this is just the retro effect in my experience, maybe the 9th lord Saturn’s kendra placement and 7th aspect on 10th bhav (career karak aspecting 10th) isn’t fully kicked in yet, so just hang in there and things will improve with time.
Hi VS,
In the kartari yogas do the degrees from the MEP matter ? For instance both planets more than 25 degrees from the MEP of the affected house ?
Thanks
no in kartaari yogas, the point is being surrounded by 2 generic malefics or benefics and degrees are not that relevant
Hi VS
Is Kartari Yoga applicable only to houses (like 3 planets in 3 consecutive houses) or can it be applied to also 3 planets say in the same house – for example venus at 9 aquarious, Ketu in 12 Aquarius and Mercury in 18 aquarius?
So in this scenario, the Ketu’s bad results will be a bit tempered as it is in Shubh Kartari?
Regards
Amit
yes kartari just means scissors and any ‘surrounding’ planets will create it. whether between 3 different signs or within the same sign. if jupiter is exalted and placed well in cancer but has rahu on one side in cancer and saturn on the other side in cancer then jupiter has paap kartaari yoga and its ability to do good will be greatly affected. Ofcourse it will also depend on what the functional and overall dignity of all the planets involved is too
Hi VS
Question is regarding Dainya parivartana yoga – why is it bad? I am unable to understand the logic behind it. Even if say the 1st and 6th lord interchange, in a way it’s like 2 planets sitting in their own sign, so isn’t that good?
For example: Pisces ascendant – Sun in Lagna, Jupiter in 6th – would it not just act like Jupiter in lagna and Sun in 6th – so why would it being miseries to the native?
Best Regards
Amit
good and bad are relative terminologies in any chart. if 1st adn 6th lords interchange, it will act like the 1st lord is conjunct with the 6th lord in a chart. by itself this is not good. However if they are agreeable planets and friends in nature (say moon and jupiter for cancer) then their conjunction or interchange is less damaging. many a times the good and bad coexist in astrology as well
Sir, can Jupiter be strengthened for Mercury Ascendants if it is weak but not placed in dusthanas? I am asking this as this too is contentious like many other concepts in astrology.
For instance, it is a strict no as per Barbara Pijan. Some others say that it should be worn only during its dasha that too only if the native suffers a career setback.
Please share your views and take on this
you can always strengthen a planet via gems and observe the effect. if it doesnt suit, take off, else keep wearing.
Will a paap kartari yoga on an upachaya house be beneficial for the native? As it is an upachaya house a malefic influence is desirable there?
Papp kartaari yoga in never beneficial whether an upaachya or non upaachyya house. any house and planet that is hemmed both side by general malefics is bound to suffer in some fashion. if the planet or house is strong otherwise, the damage is less ofcourse
