In addition to the
standard definition for Gajakesari Yoga which states that this Yoga comes into
effect whenever the planet Jupiter occupies the Kendra houses from the natal
Moon, there are few more interpretation for this Yoga, which can found
mentioned in the ancient classics and are discussed below:
1.
According to Jataka Parijata, if the planet Moon is aspected by the benefics,
namely Mercury, Venus and Jupiter and at the same time these planets are neither
debilitated nor combust then this combination results into Gajakesari Yoga in
the chart. Of the native.
2.
According to sage Parashara’s Brihat Parashara Hora Shastra, if the planet
Jupiter is placed in the Kendra houses from the natal Moon or the Ascendant
then this combination produces a Gajakesari Yoga, but at the same time Jupiter
must also be associated with or aspected by the benefic planets and neither be
debilitated nor be combust, as well as it must not be placed in the 6th
house of the horoscope.
Besides the actual
placement of the planet Jupiter in relation to the Moon, there are few other
factors of importance which materially influence the outcome of any Gajakesari
Yoga within a horoscope. Some important factors which influence the results of
any Gajakesari Yoga are discussed below in the following points:
1.
Strength
of Moon and Jupiter: Both the Moon and Jupiter must be strong in a chart for an
effective Gajakesari Yoga. If both the constituent planets of Gajakesari Yoga,
namely the Moon and Jupiter, are weak or debilitated or under the aspect from
the malefic planets or in association with the malefic planets in the chart
then this Yoga looses the most of its sheen.
It must be noticed that
the Moon rules the sign Cancer and is exalted in Taurus, whereas Jupiter rules
the signs Sagittarius and Pisces while it is exalted in Cancer. Therefore the
Gajakesari Yoga cannot get formed with both the constituent planets, namely the
Moon and Jupiter, in their exaltation signs or both the planets occupying their
own houses in the horoscope, since when the Moon is exalted, the Jupiters
exaltation sign doesn’t fall in Kendra houses from the Moon. When Moon occupies
its own sign then the signs ruled by the Jupiters, namely the Sagittarius and
Pisces doesn’t fall in the Kendra houses from the Moon. Thus the best form of
Gajakesari Yoga is placement of both the Moon and Jupiter, in conjunction,
within the sign Cancer, which is ruled by Moon and also is the exaltation sign
for Jupiter. Bothe the planets Moon and the Jupiter becomes very strong by
being positioned into the sign Cancer.
2.
Ownership of the houses by the Moon and Jupiter: The ownership of the houses,
from the Ascendant of a horoscope, by both the Moon and Jupiter, is of great
significance in assessment of the results originating from any Gajakesari Yoga.
When both the constituent planets, namely the Moon and Jupiter, occupies the
benefic houses, then the Gajakesari Yoga arising out of such Moon and Jupiter
combination confers favourable results to the native. However, if the
constituent planets own adverse houses, then the outcome of any such Gajakesari
Yoga fails to properly cast its favourable result on the native. When either of
the two constituent planets of the Gajakesari Yoga, namely the Moon and the
Jupiter, owns the tenth house in a horoscope, then this Yoga becomes very
strong, powerful and highly beneficial for the native.
