YOGI PLANET:
The most benefic planet for any native is YOGI planet.
Add up the longitudes of SUN, MOON & a fixed constant 3 s 30 20’(beginning of
Pushyami).
This point is called the YOGI POINT of the native and the nakshtra lord of this
point becomes the YOGI PLANET for the native.
The dispositer of the YOGI PLANET is called DUPLICATE YOGI or
ALTERNATIVE YOGI.
Every YOGI PLANET has a corresponding AVAYOGI PLANET as mentioned
below.
              YOGI           AVAYOGI YOGI                 AVAYOGI
              SUN            SATURN         MOON          MERCURY
              MARS           KETU           MERCURY MARS
              JUPITER        SUN            VENUS         JUPITER
              SATURN         VENUS          RAHU          VENUS
              KETU           RAHU
Houses important for longevity considerations are 2,3,7,8, &10.If Yogi planet gets
connected to Lagna Lord, 10th Lord, Poorna Yoga Karaka or Dasa Lord & antar
Dasa lord, it will bring good results.
If Yogi planet is in kendra or trikona or 11th house, associated with benefic
planets, it is good for the native. Yogi planet looses its beneficence if it joins with
Avayogi.If Yogi & Duplicate yogi has any connection (PACE), MAXIMUM YOGA
KARAKA RESULS ARE GIVEN. If Yogi planet in transit is afflicted, no positive
results are expected.
Avayogi planet in 6/8/12 houses, or it is combust or debilitated or lost in planetary
war or fallen (gone to previous rasi in retrogression) or placed in DAGDHA
RASIS, then there will be good/beneficial results. This implies, Avayogi should
not have independent strength, should not be in good bhavas.
                               DAGDHA RASIS:
For each thithi certain rasis are considered as DAGDHA RASIS. The thithi and its
corresponding DAGDHA RASIS are shown below.
                       DAGDHA RASIS
NUMBER OF NUMBER OF NUMBER OF NUMBERN
THITHI    RASI      THITHI    OF RASI
    1      7 & 10     8          3&6
    2      9 & 12     9&10       5&8
    3      5 & 10     11         9 &10

    5      3&6        13         2&8
    6      1&5        14        3,6,9,12
    7      4&9        15/30      NIL
These Dagdha rasis loose their natural characteristics. The bhavas falling in
these Dagdha rasis also loose their significations.
For example, for a native born on Chaturdasi, Mithuna, kanya, Dhanu and Meena
are Dagdha Rasis.
If these rasis are Kendras or Konas, they loose their beneficence. If Dagdha rasis
fall into malefic houses good results of that house can be expected.
Yogi & Duplicate yogi planets should not fall in dagdha rasis.
                      VARGOTTAMA & PUSHKARAMSA
VARGOTTAMA:
The first navamsa in movable signs, the fifth navamsa in fixed signs and the 9 th
navamsa in duel signs are called vargottama navamsas. The natives born in
these navamsas, i.e., vargottama lagna, will have strong lagna Bhava and will be
chiefs in their families.
A planet in the vargottama navamsa, i.e., in the same rasi and same navamsa,
will give good results in its dasa and antar dasa.
A palnet in movable sign from   000 – 00’ to 030 –20’
A planet in fixed sign from     130 – 20’ to 160 – 40’        is vargottama
A Planet in Duel sign from      260 – 40’ to 300 – 00’
PUHKARAMSA:
MESH, SIMHA & DHANU (FIREY) SIGNS                        7TH & 9TH NAVAMSA
VRISHBHA, KANYA & MAKARA (EARTHY) SIGNS                  3RD & 5TH NAVAMSA
MITHUNA, THULA & KUMBHA (AIRY) SIGNS                     6TH & 8TH NAVAMSA
KARKA, VRISCHIKA & MEENA (WATERY) SIGNS                  1ST & 3RD NAVAMSA
are PUSHKARA NAVAMSAS.
Any planet in Pushkara navamsa will give benefic results. Similarly any planet
transiting in Pushkara navamsa will give favorable results.
