DURUDHURA YOGA

If there are planets excepting the Sun on either side of the Moon, the configuration is named Durudhura Yoga.

RESULTS

The individual born under Durudhura Yoga will be bountiful, will enjoy enormous wealth and comforts.

COMMENTS

By different placements of planets in the houses adjacent to the Moon, the person's mind is coloured by the characteristics of those planets and he proceeds to find his place in this world accordingly to enjoy power and wealth. There are 31 vanetles of Sunapha Yogas and equally the same number for Anapha Yogas and there are 180 kinds of Durudhura Yoga transmutations.

Planets around the Moon in debility or some other way weak do not cause a good quality Durudhura Yoga. Compared to Sunapha and Anapha Yogas, Durudhura Yoga is more effective and does not occur so frequently. The Moon is enormously fortified to yield good results if flanked by the planets on both of its sides.

'Brihat Parasara Hora Sastra' (37 I 1 0) describe the Yoga:

One born in Durudhura Yoga will enjoy pleasures, be charitable and endowed with wealth, conveyances and excellent serving force.

ln the above Yogas the term 'excepting the Sun' is used because the Moon near to the Sun is not a benefic being weak in Paksha Bala. It is the strength of the Moon which is instrumental in these Yogas and other Lunar Yogas.

Some important combinations are -

. The subject with the Moon between Mars and Mercury will be untruthful though merited and clever. He will be depraved, censorious and avaricious and addicted to unchaste women.

The subject with the Moon between Mars and Jupiter will be renowned, owns fortunes due to his mighty exertions, but harassed by foes.

If the Moon be in conjuction with Rahu or Ketu or if Rahu

occupies 12th house from the Moon, or if the planet producing

Durudhura Yoga be depressed or obscured by the Sun's rays,

the effect of the Yoga will be of mixed type to the person there in.
