Inauspicious Yogas in Horoscope in Indian Astrology
Effects of Inauspicious Yogas on Life
In Vedic astrology, a yoga refers to a specific planetary combination in the horoscope that produces certain results in a person’s life. While some yogas bring wealth, success, and prosperity, others—known as inauspicious yogas—can create challenges, delays, or hardships. These unfavorable combinations often result from malefic planets, weak benefic planets, or negative planetary placements in certain houses.
Common Types of Inauspicious Yogas
Some of the most recognized inauspicious yogas in Indian astrology include:
Kaal Sarp Dosh – Formed when all planets are positioned between Rahu and Ketu, leading to obstacles, delays, and struggles.
Pitra Dosha – Indicates ancestral karmic debts and may cause issues related to family, finances, and health.
Mangal Dosha – Caused by the placement of Mars in certain houses, affecting marriage and relationships.
Shani Dosh (Saturn Afflictions) – Brings delays, hardships, and testing periods in life.
Grahan Dosh – Formed during eclipses, leading to emotional and mental disturbances.
Kemadruma Yoga – Absence of planets on either side of the Moon, often causing loneliness, financial instability, and lack of support.
Note: The word upgreha literally means a satellite,but in Vedic astrology, it stands for the nine strategic, sensitive mathematical points which were visualised by ancient sages as capable of causing astrological influence. These are all malefic in nature. The nine upgrehas can be calculated and posited in a birth chart along with the planets.
