धनयोग: ज्योतिषातील संपत्तीचे योग — कुंडलीतील समृद्धी कशी ओळखावी

Classical Dhana Yoga Definition Across BPHS and Saravali Texts

Dhana Yoga — wealth-producing planetary combination — arises from the connection between lords of the Dhana Bhava (2nd), Labha Bhava (11th), and the trikona lords (5th and 9th), with the Lagna lord (1st) acting as the unifying catalyst. BPHS Chapter 41 devotes extensive treatment to Dhana Yoga, stating that when the lords of the 2nd and 11th combine with lords of the 9th or 5th, great wealth accrues. Saravali of Kalyana Varma, Chapter 36, elaborates: 'If the lord of the 2nd, joining the lord of the 11th and lord of the Lagna, be in an angle or trine, the native will be extremely wealthy.' The operative principle distinguishes Dhana Yoga from Raj Yoga: while Raj Yoga produces status and authority, Dhana Yoga produces accumulated artha (material resources). The 2nd house governs accumulated capital (sanchita dhana), the 11th governs income and gains (labha), the 5th governs intelligence applied to wealth creation (purva punya and speculation), and the 9th governs inherited and dharmic wealth (bhagya). When the lords of these houses associate through conjunction, mutual aspect, or parivartana, Dhana Yoga is formed. The strength of accumulated wealth scales directly with the number and quality of participating houses and the shadbala of their lords.
