Hari, Hara, and Brahma Yogas in Vedic Astrology

These Yogas are formed when specific beneficial planets are placed in designated houses relative to the positions of their lords in the horoscope. The combination of these Yogas bestows the native with significant spiritual, material, and intellectual advantages.

Formation of Hari, Hara, and Brahma Yogas

  • Contentment and Comfort: They will enjoy a life of satisfaction, luxury, and comfort.
  • Bravery and Success: The native will be courageous and successful in overcoming adversaries.
  • Beneficence: They will show kindness and compassion to all living beings.

Comments on Hari, Hara, and Brahma Yogas

  • Trimurti Yoga: In Brihat Parasara Hora Shastra, these Yogas are collectively referred to as Trimurti Yoga, symbolizing the Hindu trinity of gods—Brahma, Vishnu, and Shiva.

  • Brahma Yoga and Planetary Positions: For Brahma Yoga to occur, the specific planetary alignment must adhere to particular house placements. However, certain configurations may not be achievable due to the maximum angular distance of Venus from the Sun being 48°—this can sometimes make certain combinations impossible.

Example: If the Sun is in the fourth house, it is not feasible for Venus to be in the tenth house, even in higher latitudes.
