Ch. 21. Nabhasa Yogas
1. NABHASA YOGAS. Yavanas have explained 1800 kinds
of Nabhasa Yogas, out of which I detail below 32.
2-4. KINDS OF NABHASA YOGA. The following are the 32
Nabhasa Yogas Nau, Chatra, Koota, Chaapa, Sringataka,
Vajra, Damini, Pasa, Veena, Kamala, Musala, Vapi,
Hala, Sara, Samudra, Chakra, Maala. Sarpa, Ardha
Chandra, Yava, Kedara, Gada, Pakshi, Yupa, Yuga,
Sakata, Soola, Danda, Rajju, Sakthi, Nala and Gola.
The Asraya Yogas, viz. Musala, Rajju and Nala are
dealt with by Acharya Manitha.
5-6. Gola, Yuga, Soola, Pasa, Veena (Vallaki),
Kedara and Damini arc the seven Sankhya Yogas. The
two Dala Yogas viz. Sarpa (Bhujanga) and Mala are
explained by Parasara Maharishi. Savitracharya dealt
with remaining 20 Yogas.
7. One born with an Asraya will obtain the good
effects, viz., happiness, advantages and qualities,
provided there is no other kind of (Nabhasa) Yoga
present in the horoscope. If other (Nabhasa) Yoga is
present in addition to an Asraya Yoga, then the
effects of Asraya Yoga do not come to pass, but the
other (Nabhasa) Yoga prevails.
8-10. EFFECT OF AKRITI, SANKHYA AND DALA YOGAS. One
born in Akriti Yoga will be satisfied with his own
fortunes, will earn through a king, be dear to king
and be famous. Should there be a Sankhya Yoga, the
native will be happy only with others' wealth, will
live only through others help and be always not
peaceful. A native with Dala Yoga will sometimes
enjoy his own fortune, yet sometimes that of others,
will pick up the fruits thrown on the ground by
others, be sometimes happy and sometimes sorrowful.
11. NAUKA, KOOTA, CHATRA AND CHAPA YOGAS. If the
seven planets occupy continuous Houses starting from
the Ascendant and the other three Angles, Yogas
called Nauka, Koota, Chatra and Chapa are,
respectively, formed.
12. YUPA, SARA, SAKTHI AND DANDA YOGAS. If the seven
planets occupy for continuous Houses counted from
the Ascendant and its Angles, the resultant Yogas
are known, as Yupa, Sara (or Ishu-arrow), Sakthi and
Danda, respectively.
13. ARDHA CHANDRA AND GADA YOGAS. If the seven
planets occupy continuously seven Houses commencing
from a House, which is not angular to the Ascendant,
the Yoga produced is known, as Ardha Chandra (Ardha
Sasi) Yoga. Gada Yoga forms, when all the seven
planets occupy two successive Angles from the
Ascendant.
14. VAJRA, YAVA, PADMA AND VAPI YOGAS. If benefics
occupy the Lagna and 7th, while malefics are in the
4th and 10th Vajra Yoga is formed. Conversely, if
malefics are in the Lagna and 7th, while 4th and
10th are occupied by benefics, Yava Yoga is
produced. If all the planets are disposed in four
kendras, Padma (Kamala) Yoga is formed. Should the
seven planets be relegated either to Apoklima Houses
(3, 6, 9 and 12th), or to Panapharas (2, 5, 8 and 11
Houses), Vapi Yoga is formed.
15. SAKATA, VIHAGA, HALA AND SRINGATAKA YOGAS. If
all planets occupy only the Ascendant and the 7th
House, Sakata Yoga is formed. Similar participation
of all the planets in the 4th and 10th Houses
constitutes Vihaga (Pakshi) Yoga. Should all the
planets be in mutual Trines, avoiding the Ascendant,
Hala Yoga is formed. All planets relegated only to
the Ascendant and its Trines give rise to Sringataka
Yoga.
16. CHAKRA AND SAMUDRA YOGAS. Should all the planets
occupy alternative Rasis commencing from the Lagna,
Chakra Yoga is formed. If these occupy alternative
Rasis from the 2nd onwards, Samudra Yoga is formed.
17. Thus, I have explained the twenty different
Akriti Yogas. Now, I explain the Asraya Yogas, as
per the schools of thought of senior Garga etc.
18. ASRAYA AND DALA YOGAS. Should all the planets be
in Dual Rasis, Nala Yoga is formed. Similarly, if
these are in Fixed Rasis, Musala Yoga takes place
and in Movable Rasis Rajju Yoga is formed. All
Angles occupied exclusively by benefics cause Maala
Yoga, while malefics in all Angles produce Sarpa
Yoga. These two are Dala Yogas.
19. SANKHYA YOGAS. If all the seven planets occupy
one Rasi, Gola Yoga is formed. Similarly in 2 Rasis-Yuga
Yoga, In 3 Rasis-Sula Yoga, in 4 Rasis-Kedara Yoga,
in 5 Rasis-Pasa Yoga, in 6 Rasis-Damini and in 7
Rasis-Veena (Vallaki) Yoga.
