from Brihat Parashara Hora Shastra, ch. 36, verse
11-13. Translated by Girish Chand Sharma
A raja yoga is a planetary combination that gives increase
in success and status. Here sage Parashara shows the various
ways that a raja yoga can be formed:
(verses 11-12) If there is an exchange between an angular
lord and a trinal lord, or if they are in conjunction in a
house, or if either of them is there in the other's house,
or if they have full aspect of each other, they are indicators
of Raja Yoga (they cause auspicious combinations). The native
born in this combination will become a king or an eminent
person.
Translator's notes:
These rules are of the greatest significance in giving elevation
to life. The basis of Predictive Astrology is indeed the mutual
relationship of the lords of the houses. The above mentioned
rules may be easily explained as follows:
1) The angular lord occupies a trine and the trinal lord
occupies an angle. That is, there should be an exchange between
an angle and a trine.
2) The lords of an angle and a trine are situated together
in an angle or in a trine.
3) If a trinal lord is situated in an angle, he is always
in an auspicious situation although he may not be in his own
sign.
4) If an angular lord occupies a trine he will always be in
an auspicious situation. His situation in his own sign is
not essential for him to be auspicious.
5) The angular lord being situated in any house aspects the
trinal lord situated in a benefic house and the trinal lord
aspects the angular lord in the same position or they have
aspects between them.
The greater this relationship of the planets there is in a
horoscope the more famous, the wealthier and the more powerful
will the native be.
(verse 13) If one and the same planet becomes the lord of
a trine and also the lord of an angle and occupies an angle
or a trine, it will prove to be a raja yoga karaka.
Translator's notes:
This situation may be created by Saturn in Libra and Taurus
ascendants because then he will be respectively the lord of
the 4th and 5th houses and that of the 9th and 10th houses.
And if Saturn in these ascendants occupies an angle or a trine
he will form a specially auspicious yoga or combination.
