How it forms

The lord of the 9th house and the lord of the 10th are linked: they share a sign, aspect each other, or sit in each other’s signs. They must be two different planets.

The 9th is the house of dharma (fortune and purpose) and the 10th the house of karma (work and standing), so this is the most prized single pairing of the Raja yogas.

What it gives

Work feels like a calling rather than a job, and mentors and elders support your rise.
