T'he results should not be applied literally.

Planetsin the 10th kendra are more powerful than
those in the 7th; those in the 7th are more powerful
than those in the 4th. Those in the 4th, in turn, are
more powerful than those in the lst though Lagna
Kendra is an exception. In ascribing results to the
Dasas, the usual considerations such as a planet
being a beneficor malefic lord, etc., have to be taken
into account. Chatussagara Yoga contributes to
considerable financial soundnessand good name to
the person irrespectiveof the fact whether or not
one is a ruler.
Chart No. 13 is the horoscopeof the father of
late Professor B. Suryanarain Rao. Note all the
kendras are occupied. He was a man of great self-
respect, held a decent position as a Dewan, a great
yogee and knew well eight languages.

L Vasumathi Yoga

Definition.--lf benefics occupy the upachayas

(3,6, l0and ll) either from the ascendantorfrom
the Moon, the cornbination goes under the name of
VasumathiYoga.
Results.-The person will not be a dependent
but will always command plenty of rvealth.

wealth than with anything else. The Vasumathi re-
sulting from the Lagna seemsto have more influence
than the one formed with referenceto the Moon. Bv

implication it also means that two benefics witl give

lesp wealth while only one benefic will give ordinary
wealth. If the upachayas happen to be exaltation i
places, the yoga becomesextremely powerful while .
the reverseholds good in casethe upachayas happen ,i
to be debilitation places. When counted frohr thc $
Moon all the four upachayas cannot be occupied i
because there will be only three benefics left. The $
authorities are silent on the matter and they simply fi
say that the upachayas should be occupied. Varaha- q
'
mihira seemsto go so far as to assertthat predictions
made according to ordinary combinations may some-
times fail but the results predicted by Yasumathi
Yoga do not fail. In all such planetary combinations,
one must be very careful in assessing the rcal
strength of a yoga and seeif its results have already
been comprehended by some other more powerful
yogas. It will be seen that purely Yasumathi Yogas
are a rare occurrence. You will 6nd very few
examples in which beneficsare in all the upachayas.
Even when benefics are in upachayas, thcy will be
found to be associated with or aspected by malefics )
and due allowance must be made for such evil
dispositions.
