Rajayoga 10
Defnition.-Saturn in exaltation or Moolathrikona should occupy a kendra or thrikona aspected by the lord of the 10th.
Rayoga 11
The Moon should join Mars in the 2nd or 3rd and Rahu must occupy the 5th.
Rayoga 12
The lord cf the 10th should occupy an exalted or friendly navamsa in the 9th having attained Uttamamsa.
Rayoga 13
Jupiter must be in the 5th from Lagna and in a kendra from the Moon and the Lagna being a fixed sign the lord should occupy the 10th.
Rayoga 14
The lord of the navamsa occupied by the Moon should be disposed in a quadrant or trine either from Lagna or Mercury.
Results.-The native becomes a ruler or an equal to him.
Remarks.-Saturn’s exaltation sign is Thula and Moolathrikona is Kumbha. For combination 10 to obtain, Saturn must occupy either Thula or Kumbha
which should happen to be a kendra or thrikona from Lagria. In other words, this yoga can operate in respect of all signs except Kanya, Dhanus and Makara because they cannot be kendra or thrikona either from Thula or Kumbha. Therefore Saturn in Kumbha or Thula, aspected by the lord of the 10th, can give rise to the Raja Yoga defined in combination 10, provided the Lagna is not Kanya, Dhanus or Meena.
The theoretical presence of Raja yogas is of no consequence unless the Raja Yogas have inherent vitality to produce the results ascribed to them. The student must first learn to pick up Raja yogas and then weigh their relative strengths and weaknesses.
A Chandra Mangala Yoga in the 2nd or 3rd with Rahu in the 5th is also said to give rise to a Raja Yoga 11. Rahu’s situation in rhe 5th is not good for children. When Kuja is in the 2nd and Rahu is in the 5th, Kuja aspects Rahu thus increasing the affiiction on the 5th house. The Raja Yoga in question is perhaps an exception to the general dictum that Rahu-Mars influences on the 5th would adversely affect the house of children. In about a dozen horoscopes (containing this combination) I have examined, the Raja Yoga appears to be nominal inasmuch as the subjects concerned belong to mediocre status and have not been noted either for wealth, or power or intellect. I should feel thankful to readers who could pass on to me charts illustrative of Raja Yoga mentioned in combination 11.
Yoga No. 12 seems to require a little explanation. First, the 10th lord should occupy the 9th; second, in the 9th house, the Navamsa occupied should be an exalted or friendly one; and third, the 10th lord should have attained Uttamamsa. If a planet is in its own varga three times, it is said to be in Uttamamsa.
Two out of three factors, involved in causing Yoga No. 13,are constant, for, the positions of Jupiter and Lagnadhipathi are fixed. It is only the position of the Moon that is variable. The Lagna must be a fixed sign, Jupiter should occupy the 5th from Lagna and the Moon must be in a kendra from
Jupiter. Lagnadhipathi should, of course, be in the 10th. When the Moon is to be in a kendra from Jupiter, the existence of Gajakesari Yoga is clearly
implied. The Moon could occupy the 2nd, 11th or 8th from Lagna, the first two positions being good, as they would have reference to the houses of wealth and gains (provided the Moon is not blemished by lordship), while the third position is not recommended. As the yoga takes into account the presence of Gajakesari plus Jupiter’s aspect on Lagna, its potentiality could be considerable, provided, Lagnadhipathi and Jupiter are both strongly disposed. The yoga is capable of a number of variations, as it can arise with regard to four signs and as the Moon’s position is variable.
Combination 14 requires the fulfillment of the following conditions. The Moon occupies some Navamsa. The lord of this Navamsa should be in a
kendra or thrikona either from Lagna or from Mercury. This does not appear to be a powerful Raja Yoga. It is quite a common combination.
