By The Great Sage Acharya VARAHA MIHIRA
Chapter –13-----Chandra Yogadhyaya
Stanza 1: |
When Moon occupies quadrants, etc. from Sun, three yogas arise calledAdhama,Sama, Varishta respectively, producing politeness, wealth, wisdom, intelligence and skill accordingly. If Moon is in his own or friendly Navamsa during the day and night possessing the aspect of Jupiter and Venus respectively, the person will be wealthy and happy |
Stanza 2: |
When benefics occupy the 6th, 7th and 8th from Moon, they cause Adhi yoga and the result is the birth of a commander, a minister or king. Persons born in this conjunction (adhi yoga) will be gentlemanly, happy, surrounded with luxury, without foes, long-lived and rejected by diseases |
Stanza 3: |
With the exception of Sun, other planets in the 2nd from Moon in the 12th from him and in the 2nd and 12th from Moon cause Sunapha, Anapha and Dhuradhura yogas respectively. If these aren’t so, many say it’s kemadruma. If planets are in quadrants from lagna or Moon or if Moon is combined with planets, there’s no kemadruma. Some say these yogas arise from quadrants and navamsas, but their doctrine hasn’t been accepted |
Stanza 4: |
There are 30 varieties of Sunapha and Anapha conjunction. There are 180 varieties of Duradhara. The intended varieties can be found out by placing planets in regular order and dropping the first in proceeding to the last and repeating this |
Stanza 5: |
A person born in Sunapha will be king or his equal with self‑acquired wealth, intelligent, wealthy and reputed. A person born under Anapha will be a ruler, healthy, moral, renowned, enjoying good pleasures, fond of decorations and free from mental sorrow. |
Stanza 6: |
One born under duradhura enjoys all pleasures, has wealth and conveyances, will be liberal and possessed of good servants. The person born under kemadruma, although he may take his birth in a royal family, will be dirty, sorrowful, doing work against his caste, poor, dependent and roguish. |
Stanza 7: |
If Mars causes these yogas, the person will be energetic, wealthy, warlike and adventurous. If Mercury causes the yogas, the person will be skilful, have sweet speech and be learned in arts. If Jupiter causes the yogas, the person will be rich, charitable, happy and respected by rulers. If Venus, he’ll be fond of women, very wealthy and will enjoy sensual pleasures |
Stanza 8: |
If Saturn causes these yogas, the man will enjoy others’ wealth and articles, will be engaged in various works and be a leader of an assembly. Moon, if visible in the day, does mischief but when he’s invisible, he’ll be auspicious. Otherwise, the results will be different |
Stanza 9: |
When all benefics are in Upachayas from lagna, the person will be extremely wealthy. When all benefics are in Upachayas from Moon, he’ll be wealthy. When two benefics are in Upachayas, there’ll be moderate wealth. Less than that will produce little wealth. The results from these will predominate over others. |

Chapter ---15 -----Pravarajya (Sannyanasa) Yoga
Stanza 1: |
When there are four or more powerful planets in one house, the persons born will become Sakya, Aajivika, Bikshu, Vriddha, Chakra, Nirgrantha and Vanyasana, when Mahaya, Gnya, Guru, Kshapakara, Sita, Prabhakari and Ina are powerful respectively. The pravrajya yogas are determined by the most powerful planets. When these planets have suffered a defeat, the person will renounce pravrajya afterwards |
Stanza 2: |
If powerful pravrajya-causing planets are in combust with Sun, then the persons born won’t take up sanyasa but will greatly worship those who have embraced sanyasa. If the yogakaraka and defeated planets are aspected by other planets, the person would be making an application for diksha |
Stanza 3: |
When janmesha isn’t aspected by other planets but aspects Saturn, or when Saturn aspects a weak janmesha or if Moon is in Saturn’s Drekkana and occupies the amsa of Saturn or Mars and has saturnine aspect, the person will have diksha |
Stanza 4: |
If Jupiter, Moon and lagna are aspected by Saturn, and if Jupiter is in the 9th, the persons born would be a king who’d write on shastras or sciences. If 9th is occupied by Saturn unaspected by any planet, the person will become a dikshita when he’s born in rajayoga. |
