Strong Raj Yogas of Astrology or Panch Mahapurush Yogas of Astrology

A Panch Mahapurush Yoga is formed when:

1. The planet is in its own sign or exalted sign.

2. The planet is placed in a Kendra (angular house) — 1st, 4th, 7th, or 10th house from the Ascendant (Lagna).

3. The Ascendant should be strong enough to support the yoga.

Important: These yogas are not formed if the planet is combust, retrograde (in some cases), or debilitated, or if the chart uses Chandra Lagna (Moon sign) and the conditions are not met.
