Daridra Yog Calculator

Daridra Yoga (daridra = poverty) is a group of classical combinations in Vedic astrology that can obstruct the smooth flow of wealth. Its best-known form is the lord of the 11th house (labha, gains) falling into a dusthana — the 6th, 8th or 12th house. Related signatures include the 2nd lord (dhana, accumulated wealth) or the Lagna lord in a dusthana, malefics afflicting the 2nd and 11th houses, and the Kemadruma Yoga (an isolated Moon).

Importantly, classical texts also describe Daridra Bhanga — cancellation of the poverty yoga. When strong Dhana (wealth) yogas are present (the 2nd and 11th lords connected, benefics in the wealth houses, or wealth-house lords exalted or in their own sign), the negative yoga is neutralised. This calculator shows both sides transparently: every poverty indicator it finds, and every counteracting wealth yoga.

Treat the result as an educational screening of the chart's signatures, not a prediction of anyone's actual finances — wealth depends on effort, dasha periods, transits and a full chart reading. Enter your exact birth time and pick the city from the dropdown for an accurate reading.

Why cancellation matters most

A raw Daridra signature on its own is rarely the whole story. Because Daridra Bhanga (cancellation by wealth yogas) is so common, many charts that show a poverty indicator also carry the wealth combinations that neutralise it. That is why this tool always weighs both sides together and gives a net reading, rather than alarming you with an isolated negative placement.
