Hamsa Yoga

Hamsa yoga arises when Jupiter is in its own house or in its exaltation house in quadrant houses. More appropriately put, Hamsa yoga is formed when Jupiter is placed in 1st, 4th, 7th, or 10th house from Ascendant in any of the signs namely Cancer, Sagittarius, or Pisces.

The effects of this yoga are largely auspicious and benefic, and its natives will occupy high-ranking positions, with much respect.

Here are some other benefits of this yoga:

  • Natives will get promoted and appreciated at work with ease.
  • Travelling will come naturally to natives of this yoga, especially for work.
  • They will be widely recognized.

Rules

  • Jupiter must be in its own house.
  • Jupiter must be in Kendra or center from Ascendant.
  • There should be no malefic planet aspecting or being placed with Jupiter.

Exceptions

  • The formation of this yoga will give pleasant results, as long as there is no malefic planet that is aspecting or being placed with Jupiter with some other conditions.
  • When there are malefic planets aspecting Jupiter, good results can still be obtained but with harder work and more stringent conditions.
  • Malefics in the 5th house or 9th house from Jupiter will have the power to cause Hamsa yoga.

Comments and other details
When Hamsa Yoga is in its full strength, it will be visible in Jupiter Dasa, partially in antardasa with the functional benefic planet Dasa-antardasa of the birth chart. It is widely believed that one can get this yoga in his past life one has constructed a Shiva Temple. But if he has stolen from a shive temple in his past life, then he can remedy himself by serving the temple.
