Budha-Aditya Yoga(Sun-Mercury conjunction)
Arjun K. Garga, Palwal
Whereas Sun emits energy, Mercury instills this energy to
neurons for thedevelopment of brain cells. If Sun is freedom of
self, sense of ego andgenerous traits, Mercury is consciousness,
sanctity of existence, sober andwit, wise and wisdom. The
conjunction of both Sun and Mercury constitutesa famous,
proverbial, philanthropic, prowess and praiseworthy associationwhat
is called udha!"ditya #oga, an asset of the horoscope under which
anative is born. It is synonymous to hadra #oga, $one of
%ancha!Mahapurusha yogas& that has been energised.The
legitimacy of this yoga is when it gets extra strength from the
sign ofown, exaltation or friends such as "ries, 'emini, (ancer,
)eo, *irgo, andSaggitarius. Then, it uplifts the life of the native
with certainity. If the yogagerminates in sign of debilitation such
as )ibra or %isces or it is ruined bythe association or aspect of
male+cs such as Mars, Saturn, ahu or -etu, its
natural strength is pitiful. It is a general rule of astrology
that the Sun isexalted in "ries and debilitated in )ibra.
Similarly, Mercury is exalted in *irgo and debilitated in %isces.
Therefore, this is apprehensible how Sun!Mercury in )ibra,
(apricorn and %isces will enmoure the native what they doin "ries,
'emini, )eo, and *irgo.-alyan *erma in Saravali, aidyanath in ata/a
%arijat and %rithuyasas in0orasar give detailed description of this
conjunction. "ll the learned ancientastrologers consider it as a
pious, sensible, humorous, instinctive andbenevolent yoga in almost
all houses of horoscope. "lthough the houses 1th,2th and 34th are
the places of atrocities, yet if the conjunction Sun!Mercuryis
disposed in the sign of own or exaltation, the enigma of male+c
places isreduced. 5or an illustration, see Saravali, (hapter 63If
this yoga appears in the ascendant, the native is erudite,
tal/ative, stoutbody, bold, intelligent and long lived.The best
example of this dictum is the chart of "brahm )incoln where
Sun!Mercury occupies ascendant and is free from all the male+cs. 0e
was a sonof poor and illiterate father who could not serve any help
to his son. 7venthen, "brahm was inspired by inherent energy of
harmonious disposition ofstrong ascendant, Sun!Mercury conjunction
and aspect of divine upiter onascendant lord Saturn. "s a result
his mind was e8uipped with active,sensible, endurent and humourous
brain cells. 0e studied in the light oflamp posts on road. 0is
dream was to reshape his country with hun/ey!doryand bonhomie. 9ne
day he sworn in as the president of most powerfulcountry "merica.If
it is in :th, $2th or 3;th& house, the native is fond of
poems$literature&,famous, wealthy and has /ing li/e 8ualities.
0is body may be heavy withunsymmetrical nose.The yoga in other
houses ma/e the native virtuous. However, it is notbelieved good in
7th house because such a native is sexually weakand may get jail
sentence for his unsocial mis-deeds (the native maybe a thief,
smugler, fraudy, murderer or agonised dictator).
