योग — Planetary Combinations

Yogas are special planetary combinations in your birth chart that produce specific results — both positive and challenging. They are formed when planets occupy certain positions relative to each other or to specific houses. A strong yoga can elevate a person to great heights; a challenging yoga marks karmic lessons to overcome.
