Ruchaka Yoga - Panch MahaPurusha Yoga in Vedic Astrology

In classic Vedic literature great importance is given to the five Panchamahapurusha Yogas. They refer to five classes of extraordinary persons born under particular configurations.
These yogas are “Ruchaka Yoga”, formed by Mars,
“Bhadra Yoga”, formed by Mercury,
“Hamsa Yoga”, formed by Jupiter,
“Malavya Yoga”, formed by Venus, and
“Shasya Yoga”, formed by Saturn.
The primary rule for the creation of these Yogas is as follows:
• The planet forming the yoga must be in it’s own, or exaltation sign, and in an angle from the Lagna or the Moon.
Such a planet will be very powerful and all too apparent in the life and character of the native.
Sloka VI.4 of Phaladeepika says these yogas make one “fortunate; a king or equal to a king; an emperor or superior to an emperor.”
Ruchaka Yoga is formed when Mars in posited in a Quadrant ( 1- 4 -7 10 ) in its own sign, Mool Trikona or exaltation sign.

Exalted in Capricorn upto 28°

Moola Trikona in Aries upto 12°
