- Rahu is conjunct Moon in the Lagna and malefics are placed in the Trikonas (If Saturn is also in Lagna or aspects it this Yoga will be stronger) (Major S.G. Khout).
- Results

Terms used on this page
- Lagna (Ascendant)
- The zodiac sign rising on the eastern horizon at the moment of birth. It becomes the 1st house, and every other house is counted from it.
- Trikona
- The trinal houses (1st, 5th and 9th), associated with fortune, merit and intelligence.
- Malefic
- Naturally harsh planets: Sun, Mars, Saturn, Rahu, Ketu, a waning Moon, and Mercury joined by malefics.
- Aspect (Drishti)
- A planet's glance on another house. Every planet aspects the 7th house from itself; Mars also the 4th and 8th, Jupiter the 5th and 9th, Saturn the 3rd and 10th.
- Conjunction
- Two or more planets in the same sign (and so the same house).
- Rahu and Ketu
- The Moon's north and south nodes. These shadow planets are always opposite each other and are treated as malefics.
