Anaphaa Yoga Calculator
What is Anaphaa Yoga?
Anaphaa Yoga is a lunar (Chandra) yoga, formed when one or more planets — other than the Sun and the lunar nodes — occupy the 12th house from the Moon. The 12th relates to the body, comforts of rest, and eventually detachment, so planets placed there from the Moon shape the person's physical presence and inner disposition.
The yoga is said to give good health, a well-formed body, charisma, comforts and a virtuous, contented nature. Such a person often carries an easy personal magnetism and enjoys the pleasures of a comfortable life, while retaining a calm, principled temperament and, frequently, a growing inclination toward simplicity or spirituality as life matures. The overall impression is of someone at ease in their own skin, liked for an unforced warmth rather than for showiness.
The planet occupying the 12th from the Moon flavours the outcome — a benefic there enhances the charm and contentment, while a malefic may add restlessness or expenditure. Even then, the baseline gift of health and charm usually remains intact. The Moon's strength and sign, along with the ruling Dasha, decide how fully the qualities show. Because everything here is measured from the Moon, an accurate Moon position is essential — enter your exact birth date, time and place, and read the yoga alongside the whole chart.
