Definition.-Mars should be exalted in a Kendra or occupy a Kendra which should be his own sign.
Results.-The person born in Ruchaka will have a strong physique, famous, well versed in ancient lore, King or an equal to a King, conforming to
traditions and customs. He will have a ruddy complexion, attractive body, charitable disposition, wealthy, long-lived and leader of an army.
Remarks.—The Panchamahapurusha Yogas can be said to exist only when the planets concerned are strong and are full of vitality. The meaning implies five types of great men. Naturally. a really powerful Yoga would be a rare phenomenon. Emphasis is laid on the word balishla so that if a planet is weak by debilitation, association or aspect the Yoga does not operate in its real sense, though nominally, it may exist. Here importance is attached to the de facto rather than de jure presence of the Yoga.
Ruchaka Yoga is caused by the strong disposition of Mars in a Kendra identical with his own or exalted sign. Ruchaka Yoga makes one martial, a
leader of men, a great Commander, an aggressive but a patriotic ruler or an equal.
