Yogas in Vedic Astrology

A yoga is a combination of placements that the texts say produces a particular result. Every yoga below is one our engine checks in your chart. Each page gives the exact rule as it is applied, the text it comes from and how established that source is, what weakens it, and how often it actually occurs.

That last figure matters more than most sites admit. Several famous yogas appear in a large share of all charts, so their presence alone says little. Their strength is what counts.
