How Pushkal Raj Yoga is Formed – Classical Astrology View
According to classical astrology, Pushkal Yoga is formed when the following three main conditions are met:
1. The Moon sign lord (the planet that rules your Moon sign) is placed in a Kendra house (1st, 4th, 7th, or 10th) in its best friend’s sign.
2. The Lagna lord (the planet that rules your ascendant) is also placed in a Kendra in its best friend’s sign.
3. The Lagna (ascendant or 1st house) is aspected (looked at) by a strong planet. This planet should be either exalted (very powerful) or in its own sign, and it must also have good Shad Bala (planetary strength).
👉 Only when all three conditions are fulfilled is Pushkal Yoga considered fully formed.
Simple Explanation of Pushkal Yoga Formation
Let’s understand it in a simple way:
- Both Moon sign lord and Lagna lord should be strongly placed in Kendra houses in best friend sign.
- A strong planet (exalted or in own sign, with good strength) must aspect the Ascendant.
Variations in Pushkal Yoga (As per Some Astrologers)
Some astrologers also believe Pushkal Yoga can become stronger with these additional combinations:
- Moon sign lord and Lagna lord are conjunct (together) in a Kendra house.
- Both lords are placed in any Kendra and also aspect the Lagna.
- Moon is conjunct Lagna lord, and its depositor is in a Kendra, in friendly sign, and aspects Lagna — along with a strong planet well placed in Lagna.
These are variations which add strength to the yoga, but most astrologers agree on the main 3 points mentioned above. So, we focus on those as the base rule for Pushkal Yoga formation.
