Devendra Yoga

Devendra Yoga in Vedic Astrology

Devendra Yoga is a highly auspicious yoga that bestows the native with wealth, power, and status, often making them akin to a king. It reflects a combination of planetary placements that lead to a life of comfort, material success, and a prestigious social position.

Formation of Devendra Yoga

• Lagna in a Fixed Sign: The Lagna (ascendant) must be a fixed sign (Taurus, Leo, Scorpio, or Aquarius), providing stability and determination.
• Lagna Lord in the 11th House: The Lagna lord (the planet ruling the ascendant sign) must be placed in the 11th house, representing gains, friends, and aspirations.
• 11th Lord in the Lagna: The 11th lord (the planet ruling the 11th house) must be placed in the Lagna, emphasizing success, achievements, and fulfillment of desires.
• Second Lord in the 10th House or 10th Lord in the 2nd House: The second house represents wealth and family, while the 10th house is associated with career and public standing. A favorable exchange or placement of these houses provides the native with a strong professional standing and financial success.

Results of Devendra Yoga

• The native born under Devendra Yoga will be happy, wealthy, and will enjoy comforts throughout life.
• They will possess an attractive physical appearance and be held in high esteem, comparable to a king in terms of status and respect.
• The individual will experience significant material success and professional growth, benefiting from their career and public life.

Comments on Devendra Yoga

• Exchanging of Houses: The exchange of houses between the Lagna and the 11th lord means that the native's desires and aspirations will be fulfilled, ensuring satisfaction in life. The Lagna in a fixed sign ensures determination, which helps the native build a stable foundation for success.
• Placement of the Lords: The placement of the second lord in the tenth house or the tenth lord in the second house enhances the native’s ability to accumulate wealth and achieve career success. These placements support a solid professional foundation that leads to financial gains.
• Specific Lagna Considerations: For Scorpio Lagna, the configuration works best with Mercury in the second or tenth house. For other Lagnas like Taurus and Leo, the combinations may not be as easily achievable due to the limitations of planetary placements in relation to the Sun’s degree.
