RAJA YOGAS IN VEDIC ASTROLOGY.
Vahana (Vehicle) Yoga Part--90 (Apr—17--2009) Rule :-- When the lord of birth-lagna is conjunct with the lord of the 4th (Vahana), 11th(Laabha), or the 9th(Bhagya) house, the Vahana yoga is formed. Rule :-- When the lord of 4th house is exalted and the lord of the exaltation house occupies a kendra or trikona, the Vahana yoga is formed.
Beneifts—The person acquires material comforts and conveyances like cars. Explanation :-- In the modern world, vahana refers to bicycles and automobiles. In old days (some 75 years and before) the time-honoured carriages drawn by horses or camels or palanquins carried by bearers were considered as vahanas (transport).
Any person of average income can possess a bicycle, but very few people can afford to own an automobile like car. Therefore, there must be some distinct combinations of planets present in a horoscope to enable the person to acquire a vahana (Vehicle). The Lagna-lord must not only conjunct with the 4th, 9thor 11th house lord but must be strong and well-disposed. Otherwise, the yoga may not function properly.
The following facts may also be noted. Vahanakaraka (significator) is Venus and Vahanasthana (house of vehicles) is the 4th house. Therefore, if Venus joins the lord of 4th house in the 4th hous, the person could possess ordinary vehicles. If Venus or lord of the 4th house is in the 11th house or 9th house, the person will possess a number of (vehicles). If the lord of 4th house is connected with the Moon (conjunct or aspected), then the person will own carriages drawn by horses or motor cars in modern parlance. Example :1 :--
