Veshi Yoga

Veshi Yoga requires a qualifying planet in the sign after the Sun, counted from the Sun rather than the Ascendant. Further catalogue entries distinguish the forming planets and combinations, traditionally linked with memory, balance and resources.

How Veshi Yoga forms

Count the Sun's sign as the first. Mars, Mercury, Jupiter, Venus or Saturn in the second sign can form Veshi. The Moon is excluded, and Rahu and Ketu are not included in the engine's classical-planet selection.

Eight catalogue formulations cover the general rule and more specific arrangements. The common spelling Vesi refers to this family; it should not be confused with Vashi on the twelfth side of the Sun.

The Sun occupies Cancer and Mercury Leo in the example. Leo is second from Cancer. Both chart styles use these placements and identify the Sun as the counting reference.

Memory and outlook

The general description associates Veshi with good memory, kindness and a balanced outlook. These are traditional interpretive themes rather than measurable conclusions about a reader's personality.

The planet-specific entries add distinctions that are lost if every Veshi match receives the same description.

Resources in the wider chart

The basic source account speaks of ordinary wealth, not extraordinary riches. That distinction matters when translating a traditional description into plain language.

The actual forming planet and the wider chart remain relevant. A broad catalogue name should not be used to inflate a modest source claim into a promise of exceptional success.

Traditional interpretations are not guaranteed outcomes; consider the whole birth chart.
