Brahma Yoga
Defnition.-If Jupiter and Venus are in Kendras respectively from the lords of the 9th and 11th, and Mercury is in a similar position from the lord of either Lagna or the 10th, Brahma Yoga is caused.
Results.–:the person will enjoy luxurious foods, will be respected by Brahmins and learned men, will be highly learned, long-lived, charitable and always bent on doing good deeds.
Remarks.-The Yoga in question seems to bestow highly beneficial results implying that the native would command health, wealth, fame and above all instincts for serving others. It will be seen that in the formation of this Yoga, all the natural benefics are involved. Even here, the exact strength and signification of the Yoga rests to a large extent upon a number of other horoscop factors. For Mesha Lagna, for example this yoga cannot be deemed to be formed in all its aspects inasmuch as lord of the 9th is Jupiter so that Jupiter’s disposition in a Kendra from the 9th lord is entirely ruled out. Similarly when Cancer is the Lagna, two conditions of the yoga would be absent as lords of the 9th and 11th respectively become Jupiter and Venus. Again if Lagna is Virgo or Sagittarius the yoga cannot be full, because in regard to Virgo. Mercury becomes lord of the 10th while in regard to Sagittarius, Mercury and Venus bccome lords of the 10th
and 11th so that the disposition of Venus and Mercury respectively in kendras from the lords of the 11th and 10th is not possible. So far as Dhanu is concerned, in the place of the 10th lord, lord of Lagna may be considered. Therefore we may assume that Brahma Yoga is possible to the full extent in
respect of all the signs except Aries, Cancer and Virgo. However, it does not seem erroneous to assume that even in respect of Aries, Cancer and
Virgo, this yoga could be deemed to be present with a slight modification. If, say, three factors are necessary to make up a certain yoga, the presence
of even one or two cannot but suggest that the yoga does operate, may be feeble.
