Samudra Yoga – Aakriti Yoga – Nabhas Yoga

Introduction of Samudra Yoga as per Vedic Astrology

Samudra yoga is one of the Aakriti yoga under the group of Nabhas Yoga. Samudra Yoga is formed when all visible planets are placed in all 6 even numbers houses from Lagna in the horoscope. Samudra Yoga is considered very beneficial for native.

Nabhasa yoga is formed in the sky (Nabha) based on the shape created in the sky by planets. So, it is very clear that Nabhasa yoga is formed with visible planets only (not by Rahu & Ketu).

As per classical books of Astrology, there are 32 types of Nabhas yoga in Vedic Astrology which are listed below

• 20 Aakriti Yoga (based on the shape formed by planets in the sky)
• 7 Sankhya Yoga (based on the number of signs in which all planets are placed)
• 3 Aashraya Yoga (based on planets occupied in movable, dual or fixed signs).
• 2 Dala Yoga (formed based on a beneficial or malefic planet in the Kendra)

Samudra Yoga is part of Aakriti yoga. The word Samudra means sea or ocean. Ocean related to passions and unlimited depth. That’s why Samudra Yoga is related to Passions & huge success.

Formation of Samudra Yoga

When all visible planets from Sun to Saturn are placed in even houses from Lagna means in 2^nd, 4^th, 6^th, 8^th, 10^th, & 12^th house in the horoscope then Samudra Yoga is formed. But none of the above houses will be vacant.

Here we don’t consider Rahu & Ketu. So, Rahu & Ketu may be placed in any house, it doesn’t matter.

Here you have to notice that when all planets are placed in 6 signs then Damini Yoga is also formed. But we only consider the impact of Samudra yoga in this case. Samudra yoga is considered very rare in formation. Some astrologer says we have to look Samudra yoga from the Bhav Lagna chart in place of Rashi Lagana chart.
