Gaja Kesari Yoga
Wisdom, a good name, generosity and the strength to recover from setbacks.
How it forms
Jupiter in a kendra (1st, 4th, 7th or 10th house) counted from the Moon.
What it gives
Gaja means elephant and Kesari lion: the yoga promises the dignity of one and the courage of the other. It is one of the most common and most celebrated yogas.
