Yogas

Dear friends,

I was coding yogas in "Jagannatha Hora" software last week. I thought of sharing the list of implemented yogas with brief definitions so that one would have a nice little ready reckoner for key yogas.
The commercial version of "Jagannatha Hora" (to be launched by SJVC soon) will be able to list which of these yogas are present in a given chart (including divisional charts - for example, Saraswati yoga in my and Sanjay's D-24 have a role in our learning).

For now, use this table as a ready reckoner for key yogas. All these yogas are given in my book. Most of them are given in Dr. Raman's "300 yogas" book too. Most of these yogas are taken from BPHS and Phala Deepika.

May Jupiter's light shine on us,
Narasimha
