Why haven't I experienced the benefits of my Raja Yoga yet?

A Raja Yoga can only manifest its peak results when the native runs the Vimshottari Mahadasha or Antardasha of the planets forming that yoga. If you have a Jupiter-Sun Raja Yoga but are currently running a Saturn Mahadasha, the yoga remains latent until Jupiter or Sun periods arrive.

Can a combust planet still form an effective yoga?

When a planet is combust (within critical orb degrees of the Sun), its external worldly manifestations are weakened, even if the classical geometry is present. Our calculator flags combustion degrees and assesses whether the yoga functions primarily on an internal or spiritual level.

What is the difference between Rashi (D1) and Navamsha (D9) yogas?

The D1 Rashi chart shows the initial seed potential and physical reality, while the D9 Navamsha chart reveals the underlying strength, karmic fruition, and post-marriage/later-life realization of those planetary placements.

Can bad planetary periods cancel good yogas?

Challenging transits (such as Sade Sati) or inimical dasha lords can temporarily delay or obstruct yoga results, but they cannot permanently erase natal yogas. Once favorable dasha sub-periods resume, the yoga reactivates.

What Are Astrological Yogas in Vedic Astrology?

In Vedic astrology (Jyotish), the term "Yoga" literally translates to union or combination. A yoga occurs when specific planets, signs, and houses form harmonious geometric relationships, mutually aspecting or conjuncting one another to produce extraordinary karmic manifestations. Classical texts like Brihat Parashara Hora Shastra, Phaladeepika, and Saravali catalog hundreds of yogas ranging from royal power (Raja Yogas) and immense prosperity (Dhana Yogas) to spiritual enlightenment (Sanyasa Yogas).

Crucially, simply having a yoga present in your Janam Kundli does not guarantee automatic success. A yoga remains dormant potential until energized by planetary periods. According to classical doctrine, a yoga bears fruit ("fruitifies") primarily during the Vimshottari Mahadasha, Antardasha, or Pratyantardasha of the participating planets.

Mahadasha.com's Yoga Calculator scans your complete natal chart against classical mathematical rules, evaluates combustion, planetary war (Graha Yuddha), and divisional chart dignity (Navamsha D9), and cross-references your lifetime Vimshottari Dasha timeline to show exact calendar windows when your yogas activate.
