Yogas in Your Kundli

A "yoga" is a special planetary combination that lifts a chart above the ordinary — granting power (Raja Yoga), wealth (Dhana Yoga) or greatness (the Panch Mahapurusha Yogas). These are the auspicious counterpart to the doshas: the combinations everyone hopes to find.

Frequently asked questions

What is a yoga in Vedic astrology?

A yoga is a special combination of planets and houses in a birth chart that produces a specific, pronounced result — usually auspicious, such as power (Raja Yoga), wealth (Dhana Yoga) or greatness (Panch Mahapurusha Yogas), though some are challenging. Yogas are the "special formations" that lift a chart above the ordinary.

What are the Panch Mahapurusha Yogas?

The Panch Mahapurusha ("five great person") Yogas are formed when Mars, Mercury, Jupiter, Venus or Saturn is in its own sign or exaltation and placed in a Kendra (angle) from the Ascendant. They are Ruchaka (Mars), Bhadra (Mercury), Hamsa (Jupiter), Malavya (Venus) and Sasa (Saturn), each giving a distinct greatness of character and fortune.
