Parvata Yoga Calculator
What is Parvata Yoga?
Parvata Yoga — "the mountain" — forms when benefic planets occupy the Kendras (1st, 4th, 7th and 10th houses) while the 6th and 8th houses are vacant of planets. With the auspicious houses strengthened and the two main houses of obstacles and difficulty left empty, the chart is set up to rise steadily and high, like a mountain.
The yoga is associated with fortune, fame, eloquence, prosperity, leadership and a charitable, lucky disposition. Such a person often enjoys visibility and respect, speaks well, and finds that obstacles clear more easily than for others, giving a life that climbs to prominence and is remembered for generosity and good standing. Doors that stay shut for others often open here, especially in public, administrative or leadership roles.
Its strength comes from which benefics sit in the Kendras and how well placed they are — dignified benefics in angular houses give the fullest result — together with genuinely unafflicted 6th and 8th houses, which reduce enmity, debt and sudden setbacks. The cleaner those two houses are, the more freely the mountain rises. The Dasha periods of the angular benefics bring the fame and fortune to the fore. As with any raja-yoga-like combination, it should be weighed against the whole chart, so enter your exact birth details for accurate house placements.
