Strength of yogas in horoscopy


The yogas योगाः can be termed as landmark in judgement of  horoscope. Just as landmarks help in locating a place easily so with yogas in horoscopy, it gives us exact judgement.
Many good yogas in natal horoscope promises successful long life and vice versa with bad yogas.

The yogas give what is expected of them during their periods as we all know, but more than that, it is the repeated trigger happening during transit of planets over their natal points that gives a boost in life.
Let's say a person has many raja yogas in chart (conjunction of kendra and kona lords). Every transit of trine lords or Jupiter or lagna lord gives a boost to native which is what fast tracks life in whatever is promised.
On a similar note, the bad yogas when transited by dustana lords or natural malefic planets bring down the native or cause obstacles (unless they own a trine).
It is this repeated action of good and bad irrespective of dasha-bukthi that forms the life of native.
Hence having good no. of good yogas like Suryadi yoga सूर्यादि , Chandradi yoga चन्द्रादि , Adi yoga आदि , Raja yogas राजयोग, mahapurusha yogas महापुरुष, Mahabagya yoga महाबग्य  is sure sign of success.. a promise of god.

This can be observed in successful people's chart.

Further, the strength of yoga causing planet in Navamsa नवांश plays an important role in quantum of results gained.

Thank you

Basic of horoscope reading...

Astrology as read and understood from book of Advanced Medical Astrology by Dr. S.S. Chatterjee.
This small write up is to enable the readers to understand the gist of horoscope at quick glance and should be helpful to budding astrologers in analysis of chart...

The purpose of astrology is to lead healthy, happy and meaningful life knowing our strengths and limitations based on the astrological chart.
4th house and lord, significator of happiness-Jupiter, significator of success-Sun and significator of mind-Moon if is strongly placed in the chart can make one enjoy life immensely.
When Ascendant or Moon is devoid of beneficial aspect the rajayogas of chart does not fructify to full extent. Strong Jupiter, Venus, Waxing Moon and unaffected Mercury in quadrant houses(1-4-7-10) can give good health, elevation of financial success and achievements. Quadrants are no doubt considered as pillars of horoscope by sage Parashara. A benefic planet in 9th house and unafflicted planet in 10th house can make one extremely successful and fortunate. It is not possible to achieve financial solvency without raja-yoga's present in chart (conjunction of trine and quadrant lords). Benefic planets in quadrants or trines and malefic planets in 3&11th houses can make one successful and happy. On reverse malefic planets in quadrants (more specifically ascendant) can cause decay or loss of strength and therefore sufferings and ill health. The presence of many Maha-purusha yoga's, raja-yoga's, Vasumathi yoga, Maha-Bhagya yoga, Adi yoga etc.., can add to overall strength of horoscope.
Strong Ascendant, Sun and Moon offer resistance against onset of diseases and tends to speedy recovery. Overall body is controlled by Ascendant and its lord, strength of Ascendant and its lord goes a long was in giving good health and long life. Ascendant is considered strong if is aspected/ placed by its lord, Jupiter, Venus or Mercury or if Ascendant is in subha-kartari(hemmed between benefic planets) or Ascendant being vargottama(same asc in d1/d9).
The horoscope of a person is  believed to be balance carried forward from previous birth indicating the universal law of karma. An un-afflicted Ascendant and Moon is clear indication good karma inherited in to this life.
5th house of chart stands for amulets (piece of jewel hung around neck to protect one against any evil), sacred spells(religious chanting- mantra stana), learning (intelligence-mathi), knowledge, success, royalty and also fall from position all which comes to person due to the good of past as represented by 5th house(purva-punya-stana as stated by sages).  9th house stands for origin (father), fortune, religion and good deeds. If 5th and 9th houses/lords are rendered weak by malefic associations  or placements the chart is considerably weakened for this life journey. Placement of 5th and 9th lords in 6-8 or 2-12 to each other or to lord of Ascendant gives loss to glory of life. The strength of these planets (Asc-5th-9th lords) form the core strength of horoscope.
Physical health is seen from Ascendant and its lord while the mental strength from Moon and 4th House. Un-afflicted Ascandent or 4th house/lords form the basis of understanding the physical and mental health.

Diabetes and astrology...,

Diabetes is a metabolic disorder where in human body does not produce or properly uses insulin which is essential to convert sugar, starches and other carbohydrates into energy. Diabetes is characterized by the constant and high levels of blood sugar. 

It is a well-known scientific fact that pancreas produce insulin and in astrology Venus is the significator planet for pancreas. An afflicted Venus could indicate defective or inefficient pancreas. Hence, one could find a weak and afflicted Venus as reason for this disease. 
Jupiter indicates sweetness, controls body fats and is significator planet for liver which produces bile juice useful for digestion. An ill-disposed Jupiter denies the opportunity to taste ‘sweets’ and causes imbalance in body fat and troubled digestion.  Thus an unfavorable Jupiter indirectly indicates diabetes. A weak Jupiter in 6th, 8th or 12th or combust or debilitated can add to the weakness of Venus in triggering diabetes. 

5th house and sign Leo is the seat of Pancreas and Liver in anatomy of human body. Affliction to sign Leo and 5th house of chart will add to chances of getting diabetes. 
For any disease of chronic nature the connection of Saturn or 8th house to the disease giving planet is essential. Weak or afflicted Venus and Jupiter with a link to 6th/8th house and Saturn will form essential factors in triggering the disease diabetes. 

Ascendant and Moon are considered as very important houses in chart from health point of view. Any weakness to these two will reduce the resistance and recovery factor against disease. These two greatly enhances the possibility of mitigating any problem arising physically, bodily or mentally. A strong ascendant and Moon is the hallmark of successful and contended living of any horoscope. 


Moon indicates mental ability to withstand troubled times which goes a long way in fighting or obstructing disease and it also controls all body fluids which is an important factor for sound body and good health. 

Medical Astrology..,

A  Physician  cannot  safely  administer  medicine  if  he  is  unacquainted  with  Astrology  said- Hippocrates- Father of Medicine.
 



In ancient India, astrology was given due importance before treating the patient. Epitome to the above statement is that Astrology and medicine are essentially interrelated as science and religion. Life has three dimensions – Karma, Maya and Moksha.
Karma is further evident under physical, mental and spiritual plane. The quintessence of evil karma's- Past and Present on a physical plane is Disease.

Disease may be classified as Inherent and active. Inherent symptoms of disease are shown in natal chart as afflictions. Inherent as the word suggests ‘To Inherit’ or receive from ancestors the disease which remain in the body and become prominent under the malefic periods. Active diseases make their appearance with every evil transits.
The Moon represents Mind, Ascendant the body and Sun the Soul and is the essential contents of life. So for a healthy living these three should be free of afflictions. At least Sun and Moon i.e Mind and soul should be unaffiliated even if Asc is afflicted by unfavorable aspects and conjunctions. 
Diseases are the direct result of our evil karma's and are revealed by horoscope through the planets and it is possible to diagnose them through astrology. Karmic afflictions are decoded by planets Rahu, Ketu and Saturn. Hence when these are connected with disease giving planets and Asc the disease is very severe.  Ascendant is a strong pivotal point for healthy living. The disposition of 1st house is very important from karmic point of view and if the 1st House is afflicted, it is sure result of past karmas. Any affliction of Rahu on Asc has a lasting effect on mind and soul.

10th house should also be considered important to know disease and death of a person as profession is a very pivotal part of human life. Some ailments have their cause relating to 10th house, like a pilot dying of air crash, miners getting trapped or a person suffering from writers’ cramp etc.

The correlation between planets and disease were established thousands of years age by our great sages, who by their meticulous observing and study of charts found out certain combinations of planets caused certain disease. By this, we may conclude that astrology is as good as any other system or better in diagnosing disease much prior to its onset.

Astrology is believed as ancient occult science and is given great importance by all the civilizations. In India astrology and Ayurveda go side by side in determining disease and its cure. Astrology also explains human body in its own essence and terminology. The human body is called Microcosms (Pindanda) and possesses all the essence of Macrocosms (Bramhanda) and both are made of Pancha Butas. Planets are assigned different tatwas and further represent different organs of the body.

Stomach or abdominal region is ruled by sign Leo and Virgo the 5th and 6th house of Kalapurusha. Cancer is the disease caused by Ascendant and its lord, disease giving house and its lord having association of Rahu the expansionist and karaka for mysterious disease and of 8th lord who denotes chronic disorders of long time suffering.

Native of this chart has Rahu on same degree as of Ascendant posited in mid haven 10th house (highest Kendra) and Gulika another highly malefic mathematical point falling in Ascendant and Jupiter who is 8th lord, 22nd drekkana lord and 64th navamsa lord aspecting Ascendant causing affliction to Ascendant indicating in a very strong sense that native in his lifetime will be prone to severe bodily trouble. The lord of disease house (6th) Saturn posited in Rahu star is also aspecting Ascendant which indicates that native will be prone to cancerous, mysterious and long term disease in his life time. 

Sign Leo which rules upper abdominal region is posited by Gulika and aspected by Saturn-lord of disease house and natural significator of disease and Jupiter who is 8th lord, 22nd drekkana lord and 64th navamsa lord causing affliction to it. Sign Virgo which rules lower abdominal region is posited by Mars and its lord Mercury in association with Ketu also gets afflicted. Further, Rahu sits in Virgo in navamsa chart all which indicate affliction to the sign Leo and Virgo.
Ascendant lord Sun is well placed in trine to Ascendant but doesn’t aspect Ascendant to protect native in adverse situation. Its conjunction with 12th lord of loss and aspected by Mars and retro Jupiter (8 lord) also worked adversely against body comforts.
Moon as parallel pivotal point represents bodily comforts and longevity is weak being close to Sun (No paksha bala) makes body and mind weak and will not give long life. The chart is of Medium life span with Ascendant Lord-8th lord, Saturn-Moon, Lagna-Hora Lagna pairs indicating Madyama ayus   (medium life) span which indicates maximum life of 66 years.
Native died on 28.11.2016 at the age of 52 years. What worked strongly against his longevity when Saturn as karaka for longevity is posited in Moola-trikona sign in Kendra to Ascendant, when 8th lord who is also 5th lord is in trikona bhava (9th)?

Probably the answer lies in Moon sign being stronger than Ascendant with Moon itself as 8th lord therefrom combust, receiving aspect of 12th lord Mars and benefic planets Venus and Mercury going to dustana (12th) from Moon and Gulika in Asc and Nodes in same degree as Ascendant reduced the life to much less than the longevity indicated.

Native died in Jupiter-Moon-Saturn period; Jupiter as 22nd drekkana lord, 64th navamsa lord and 8th lord worked more stronger as malefic to the native than as trinal lord and Moon as said earlier being 8th lord from its self and Saturn as natural Ayus karaka sitting in maraka stana killed the native.

Vedic chart of Breast Cancer

Medical Astrology..,
Medical astrology helps us to understand health, longevity, accidents, illness and recovery from illness, resistance against diseases, remedy for the illness and time and type of death etc.., in astrological manner.
In fact, astrology is the only science that can indicate the sickness one may get well before its onset well in advance. 
Using the dasha system, events of life such as disease, death and future general health can be foreseen. Intensity of disease and prognosis is known and the same can be nullified by precautionary actions and by following various remedial measures as prescribed by sages of yore.

As said by Hippocrates " A physician shall not administer medicine unless acquainted with astrology" goes a long way in understanding the depth of this divine science.

Cancer is a diseases that causes out-of-control cell growth. It harms the body when altered cells divide uncontrollably to form lumps or masses of tissue called tumors (except in the case of leukemia where cancer prohibits normal blood function by abnormal cell division in the blood stream). Tumors can grow and interfere with the digestive, nervous, and circulatory systems, and they can release hormones that alter body function. Tumors that stay in one spot and demonstrate limited growth are generally considered to be benign which is caused by good Jupiter holding functional malefic role with mild affliction in birth chart. More dangerous are Malignant tumors which grow and spread rapidly caused by afflicted Rahu. 
This lady was diagnosed with Breast cancer in the year 2011; Rahu-Mercury period. Rahu sits in Asc bringing the disease to doorstep of this lady. Venus holding the lordship of 3rd & 8th house sitting in Asc becomes functional malefic to the chart. By the placement of Rahu and Venus, Asc gets afflicted and native is prone to disease cancerous in nature. But, when the disease will strike depends on the connected planetary period to affliction house, disease causing planet and dustana houses (6-8-12) to planetary periods.  A strong connection in d1 & d9 charts to dustana lords/posited planets and afflicted/weak/disease giving planets/Nodes to planetary periods and Asc or its lord will deliver the disease to the body in such periods.
This native was diagnosed with Breast Cancer during Rahu-Mercury Vimshotarri period. Rahu as said earlier is planet responsible for cancerous or mysterious diseases and its association with Venus who is significator of female sexual organs indicate trouble to those parts in dasha of Rahu and since Rahu sits in Asc, the disease connects physical body. Mercury as lord of 4th house represents the region of chest and Breast and as 7th lord the parts of Uterus, Ovaries and female sexual organs in chart. We are looking at 4th house of Mercury afflicted that caused disease in chest. Weakness and affliction to the 4th house/lord and sign Cancer the 4th house of Kalpurush indicates the disease of Breast Cancer related to 4th house as per anatomy of human body. Mercury and 4th house of chart receives the aspect of Mars a planet known for surgery wounds etc.., and debilitated Saturn aspects 4th house from sign Aries indicating that native is prone to disease in the region represented by 4th house i.e. chest or breast. Mercury, the lord of 4th sits in the 12th from 4th signifying the loss or weakness to respective body part.(kshaya stana to 4th) 
Karaka or significator for respective body part always play very important and has final say in functioning and controlling the body part. 4th house and Breast comes under karaka planet Moon. Hence, Moon needs to be afflicted and badly placed for disease to strike in the part represented by it. Moon in this chart sits in the 6th the house of disease in the stellar constellation of Venus a functional malefic planet (3rd & 8th lord) thus weakened the body part and rendering it prone to disease. Also, Rahu the planet responsible for malignant growth sits in the 8th from Moon and Moon does not receive any benefic aspect either. End result is she was diagnosed with breast cancer in 2011 when she was running Rahu-Mercury period. Mars aspect on 4th made way for surgery too in respective part. 
Asc lord Jupiter aspect on Asc sitting in kendra(1-4-7-10) enabled her early recovery. This is one of strongest factor in any chart for early recovery from illness or accidents. Asc lord influencing Asc gives highest strength to Asc to withstand or recover from any major illness. She is  now a very healthy women leading normal life except for the removal of one breast by surgical operation. 
Planets have their say at all times from birth to death. The strength of Asc, Asc lord, Moon and Sun plays vital role in health and longevity of individual.
