Dharma-Karmadhipati yoga meaning: 9th and 10th lords
Also called: Dharma Karmadhipati yoga, dharma-karma yoga
Definition
Dharma-Karmadhipati yoga forms when the lords of the 9th house (dharma sthana) and the 10th house (karma sthana) create a raja yoga through conjunction, mutual aspect or exchange.
The name comes from P.V.R. Narasimha Rao (PVR). He calls the 9th house the most important trine and the 10th the most important quadrant, so a raja yoga between their lords is 'excellent'.
For Taurus lagna, the 9th and 10th lords are the same planet: Saturn rules Capricorn (the 9th) and Aquarius (the 10th), which also makes it the yogakaraka in PVR's Table 30.
