HAMSA YOGA – Its Meaning & Role in Vedic Astrology

Yogas are of utmost importance in Vedic astrology. But, one needs a lot of expertise and skill to interpret the relative strength of them and determine how effective they really are in astrological predictions.

Yogas are formed when certain specific planetary combinations occur in a horoscope. These yogas may be benefic or malefic depending upon their placement in the chart. There are hundreds of yogas which are considered for the purpose of analysing a horoscope.

In this article, HAMSA Yoga of Hindu Astrology is explained which is benefic in nature and said to occur under the following circumstances:

·      When Jupiter is in its own sign (Sagittarius or Pisces) or 
    in exaltation (Cancer)
                                         AND
·     When  Jupiter occupies a kendra house either from Ascendant or from Moon.
·      Jupiter well placed in the chart will yield more strong and auspicious results

Results: The native having this yoga will be religious, educated, learned and knowledgeable.He will be helpful  & liked by others. Benefic qualities of Jupiter will be inherited in the native. He will be righteous in disposition and pure in mind. The native will lead a long life with prosperity and happiness.

But, one thing that the readers of this blog should keep in mind is that the above-mentioned effects of this yoga are general in nature. The planet forming this yoga should not be weak, debilitated, afflicted, or in aspect with any malefic planet. It is also very important to take into consideration the strength of the house and its lord, location of the lord, conjunctions, planets in that particular house and various aspects over it, before arriving at any conclusion.
