Shankha Yoga

By The Astrologic Desk · Editorial and calculation review

Shankha yoga forms when the lords of the 5th and 6th houses occupy mutual kendras while the Lagna lord is strong. It is associated with a long life, humane conduct and sustained comfort. Named for the conch, it is grouped among the dhana yogas.

Category: Dhana. Rule: Lords of the 5th and 6th houses in kendras from each other, with a strong Lagna lord; or Lagna lord and 10th lord together in a movable sign with a strong 9th lord.

What it indicates

  • Comfort sustained across a long life
  • Humane and principled conduct
  • Resources adequate to circumstances

Caveats

  • Alternative definitions differ substantially
  • Involves the 6th lord, so difficulty is part of the picture
