Introduction of Yug Yoga as per Vedic Astrology
Yug yoga is one among 7 Sankhya Yoga. As we know that Sankhya Yoga is part of Nabhas Yoga. So, when all visible planets (Sun to Saturn) are placed in only two signs then Yog Yoga is formed. Yug Yoga is considered malefic by nature.
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)
Yug yoga is formed based on number of signs occupied by planets. So, Yug yoga is one of Sankhya yoga.
