Remarks.-Malavya Yoga can come into existence if Venus is exalted in a Kendra or occupies a Kendra which should be his own house. Malavya Yoga cannot occur with reference to every sign of the zodiac. Consistent with the nature of Venus, Malavya Yoga will make one resolute, immensely rich and give him happiness from wife and children and fame and name. Venus is the indicator of conveyances, sensual pleasures, music, dancing, fine arts, luxury and material comforts. Naturally Malavya Yoga renders one inclined towards all the indications of Venus, with the result his spiritual advancement and outlook will be in inverse ratio to his material comforts and pleasures. In other words, while both Hamsa and Malavya are Raja Yogas, the former makes one more idealistic, spiritual, broad-minded and selfless, while the latter indicates love of pleasure, and a predominantly materialistic outlook of life. Malavya Yoga can manifest in reference to the
various Bhavas as given hereunder for persons born in different Lagnas.
