Parakrama yoga
Definition.-The lord of the 3rd should join a benefic navamsa being aspected by (or conjoined with) benefic planets, and Mars should occupy
benefic signs.
Results.-The subject will possess much courage.
Remarks.-By courage is implied preserving one’s balance of mind in the face of grave danger to one’s own life and interests. The 3rd house is called parakrama and hence its lord should occupy a benefic
navamsa besides receiving the aspect of a good planet. Mars should also be similarly situated. If the lord or the karaka has a predominance of evil vargas then the person becomes very funky.
