Vasumati yoga
Vasumati yoga is a Vedic chart pattern associated with building resources through repeated practice and participation. The rule below identifies a defined arrangement, not a promised event. Its interpretation depends on planetary condition and house ownership; a positive match should lead to a closer reading rather than an automatic prediction.

How does Vasumati yoga form?
Mercury, Jupiter, and Venus occupy growth houses: three, six, ten, or eleven, counted from either the ascendant or the Moon. Use one reference consistently.
What does this pattern traditionally mean?
The interpretive theme is building resources through repeated practice and participation. That is a symbolic reading, not evidence that a particular event will occur. Use the label to organize questions about the chart rather than to rank people.
What makes the interpretation stronger or weaker?
Mixed-reference matches are invalid: a planet cannot be counted from the Moon while another is counted from the ascendant within one test. Check the participating grahas' sign condition, degree relationships, house ownership, and relevant periods. A geometric match and a persuasive interpretation are different findings.
What does the calculator actually check?
| Field | Selected convention |
|---|---|
| Chart | D1, sidereal, whole-sign houses |
| Ascendant | Derived from reliable birth time and place |
| Rule | Planet arrangement described above |
| Unknown inputs | Unresolved, never automatically false |
| Personal timing | Requires separate mahadasha and antardasha computation |
Is Vasumati yoga a guarantee?
No. Mixed-reference matches are invalid: a planet cannot be counted from the Moon while another is counted from the ascendant within one test.
Can two calculators disagree about this yoga?
Yes. Compare the stated variant, reference point, and excluded planets before treating disagreement as a calculation error. This page exposes those choices rather than concealing them behind a score.
When would this yoga become relevant?
A Vedic reading considers the participating planets' major and subperiods alongside the whole chart. A Western reading may instead emphasize aspects and transits; these are different interpretive methods, not interchangeable labels.

How we calculate
Is astrology a guarantee of what will happen?
No. These calculations locate celestial bodies; astrology is a reflection and timing tradition, not evidence of guaranteed health, financial or relationship outcomes.
How are these results calculated?
Positions come from Astronomy Engine, an open-source astronomy library, and are checked against Swiss Ephemeris in our methodology tests. Western readings use the tropical zodiac; Vedic readings subtract the Lahiri ayanamsa. Terms are defined in the glossary.
