Parijata (the wish-fulfilling celestial tree) yoga is found by following a chain from the lagna lord: take the sign the lagna lord occupies, find that sign’s lord, then the lord of the sign that planet occupies (or of its navamsa). If this final planet is in a kendra, a trikona, or its own or exaltation sign, Parijata yoga is formed. It is not Jupiter 12th from the Moon. Texts promise happiness, respect and a rise in the middle and later part of life.
How the yoga forms
- Note the sign occupied by the lagna lord.
- Its lord is the dispositor (A).
- Note the sign occupied by A; its lord is the dispositor of the dispositor (B). Brihat Parashara Hora Shastra also allows the lord of A’s navamsa sign.
- If B is in a kendra, a trikona, or its own or exaltation sign, Parijata yoga is formed.
What makes it strong
- B in its exaltation sign gives the strongest version.
- An uncombust, unafflicted chain gives the full result.
- Results show in the dashas of the lagna lord, A or B.
Typical results
Classical descriptions: happiness in middle and old age, respect from rulers, generosity, love of festivities and ceremonies, firm resolve and good fortune. Because it rests on the lagna lord’s chain of support, it shows a life that steadily gathers backing.
