7. Gaj Kesari Yoga

Gaj Kesari Yoga is one of Vedic Astrology Most Important and Most Powerful Yogas. Gaj Kesari Yoga blesses the native with immense prosperity in life. The native becomes intellectually very intelligent and they will always be loved and respected in society. If you meet a person with Gaj Kesari Yoga, you can easily tell that that person has Gaj Kesari Yoga by the way he is able to pull in people with his magnetic intellectual aura and attractiveness.

Because Moon is our “Mind” while Jupiter is the “Ultimate Knowledge” and the planet that responsible for massive expansion. If the Mind gets influenced by Jupiter, there is no doubt, the person will have the type of mind that is so advanced, full of wisdom, spirituality, knowledge, and such people are able to think beyond what normal humans can think of. However, to get the fruitful benefits of Gaj Kesari Yoga, one has to remember that he can only get the full benefits by doing good for society. By using the blessings of Gaj Kesari Yoga to improve oneself, spiritually, intellectually, and financially and serving one’s family and children.

How is Gaj Kesari Yoga formed in the Birth Chart?

8. Laxmi Yoga and Maha Laxmi Yoga

Laxmi Yoga is one of the most auspicious Raj Yoga in Vedic Astrology as the one who has this Yoga will never be deprived of wealth in his lifetime. The Luck of Wealth will always stay with the native and that is the blessings of Goddess Laxmi upon the Native.

However, this doesn’t mean that the person will become super-rich by doing nothing. Since Laxmi Yoga happens with the involvement of the 9th house, the person has to work hard and do his “Karma” or “Karam” in order to activate the blessings of the Laxmi Yoga. Because remember, some people put in 100% effort in their work and still receive just pennies for their hard work. While some the same effort of hard work and receive 10 times the amount of money and rewards from their hard work. All I have to say is that hard work is what really activates wealth and it is even said in the Vedic Scriptures that “Goddess Laxmi is forced and obliged to give wealth to the person who works hard”.

How is Laxmi Yoga Formed in the birth chart?

Laxmi Yoga is formed when the lord of the 9th house sits in Kendra or Trikona houses in a strong position meaning in its own sign or exalted. Moreover, for the Laxmi Yoga to be fully fruitful, the Lord of the 9th house should also be aspected or with benefic planets like Jupiter, Venus, Moon, or Mercury.

Maha Laxmi Yoga

There is even a higher level Yoga called Maha Laxmi Yoga that gives the person abundance of wealth, fame and prospertiy. The person who has this Yoga is given with the biggest blessings of Goddess Laxmi, hence such a native, if he dreams to be rich and wealthy, there is no doubt, the person will be extremely capable of becoming very Wealthy in Life.

Contrary to Laxmi Yoga can also make a person Millionaire or Multi-Millionaire, but the person may have to work hard, use his talents to achieve that Goal. However, with Maha Laxmi Yoga, the person has and will have the potential to be extremely wealthy..

How is Maha Laxmi Yoga Formed in the birth chart?

Maha Laxmi Yoga is formed in the birth chart when the Lagnesh, or the lord of the 1st house sits in the 5th house or 9th house, while the lord of the 2nd house sits in the 11th house, then Maha Laxmi Yoga is formed in the Birth chart. Additionally, the 2nd house should also be aspected by benefic planets like Mercury, Venus, Moon, or Jupiter.

9. Nav Laxmi Yoga

There are no words for this Yoga, except one word which is “King”, the one who has this Yoga, will be the owner of the biggest wealth in the world. He will be blessed by Goddess Laxmi at the greatest abundance. It is one of the biggest Mahan Raj Yoga that is rarely ever seen in any person’s birth chart.

However, the one who has it becomes extremely rich. Imagine people who don’t have the problem of earning wealth, but they have the problem of spending their wealth. It brings such kind of wealth to the person and makes the person extremely fortunate.

This Yoga is so rare and so powerful that it can be only formed by two planets, that is Mars and Jupiter and in only two conditions.

1. When Mars is in the 4th house.
2. When Jupiter is in the 7th house.

How is Nav Laxmi Yoga Formed in the birth chart?

According to Shastras, Nav Laxmi Yoga is formed when the Lord of the 11th house sits in the Kendra Houses, that is 1st house, 4th house, 7th house, and 10th house, and looking or aspecting its own house that is 11th house while sitting in the Kendra house. And the 9th house lord should be situated in the 9th house itself. While the lord of the 1st house should be in the 11th house. This creates the most auspicious Mahan Yoga called Nav Laxmi Yoga.

Which means this is only possible with two planets, Mars and Jupiter.

Mars in the 4th house in Capricorn Lagan or ascendant.

Here, Mars is the lord of the 11th house (as the 11th house is in the sign of Scorpio and Mars is the sign lord of Scorpio). Mars is situated in the 4th house which is a Kendra house. While Mars is looking at its own house, that is the 11th house (Scorpio) with its 8th aspect. Additionally, as we discussed, Lagan Lord or 1st house lord should be in the 11th house and the 9th house lord should be in the 9th house itself.

Similarly, when Jupiter is in the 7th house in Aquarius Lagan or ascendant.

Here, Jupiter is the lord of the 11th house ((as the 11th house is in the sign of Sagittarius and  Jupiter is the sign lord of Sagittarius). Jupiter is positioned in the 7th house which is a Kendra house. Jupiter with its 5th aspect, aspects the 11th house which is its own house that is the 11th house. Additionally, as we discussed, Lagan Lord or 1st house lord should be in the 11th house and the 9th house lord should be in the 9th house itself.

10. Chandra Mangal Yoga

Chandra Mangal Yoga is one of the most known and popular Yogas in Vedic Astrology. It is not very rare like the Nav Laxmi Yoga and other rare Yogas as this Yoga happens when the planets Moon and Mars are positioned together in a single house. This Yoga is also formed when the Moon and Mars aspect each other with their 7th aspect. It is also known to be as Mahabhagyawan yoga as it makes the native extremely fortunate in life. 

Why Chandra Mangal Yoga?

It is said that Moon is our mind, emotions and Moon is also a planet that gives wealth. While Mars is a vitality, energy, life-force, aggressiveness, and hard-work. We all know that planets that aspect the Moon causes our mind to be like that planet. For example, if Venus aspects Moon, the person becomes very much romantic and loves luxury, while if Saturn aspects Moon, the person becomes cold, bold, and hardworking and enjoys discipline. Which is the reason why when Rahu aspects Moon, A Grahan yoga is formed that causes a lot of trouble in the mind and life of the person. 

But in contrast to that, if the Mind is influenced by Mars that is Vitality, energy, and hard work, there is no doubt, the person will be one of the most hard-working people in the world. Such people tend to be able to work for 11 to 15 hours a day and still make time for extra work that they can possibly do during the day. They are fueled by so much energy that they never lose passion at work. Because working for long hours can deplete your mood, energy, and the ability to work more. This is the reason why they are able to achieve a lot of success in their life. 

However, this is one of the most auspicious Yogas in Vedic Astrology, however, it also comes with some difficulties and challenges. Mars is a crud planet and even though it gives amazing qualities like Courage, bravery, and hard work to the person, it also makes the person have less emotional control, it can make him aggressive and angry. It is seen that due to this reason, people with Chandra Mangal yoga, normally face difficulties with family members, mother, stress, and other issues.
