The Yogas are an enigmatic aspect of Jyotisha. Yoga means joining or adding. It is formed when two Grahas join in a Rashi or have Paraspara Drishti. The presence of yogas in Jyotisha makes it different from Western astrology. Even though the results of a Bhava can be deciphered from the presence or drishti of Grahas and the placement of the Bhava lords in Rashi or Nakshatras, sometimes they are added with an extra dimension by Yoga.
There are several classes of yogas, such as Chandra Yogas, Surya Yoga, Nabhasa Yogas, Vishesha Yogas, Rajayogas, Dhanayogas, Pravrajya yogas, Dvigrahadi yogas etc. Each has special significance. The Chandra yogas, Sunapha, Anapha, and Durdhara, are important for wealth and sustenance. The Surya yogas are important for honour and success in life. Nabhasa yogas shape one's life in a certain direction, and their effects are experienced throughout life.
Yogas such as Amala, Parvata, Kahala, Chamara, Shankha, Bheri, Mridanga, etc., significantly alter the quality of a Kundali. The presence of one or more such yogas enhances certain aspects of a Kundali that are beyond the effects placement of drishti of Grahas, Lords, etc. They need to be examined carefully. Besides, there are adverse yogas such as Rajabhanga, Reka and Preshya yogas that make one poor and dependent on others for their subsistence. This book treats the subject of Yogas exhaustively.
