three planets, Saturn, Mars, and Moon would have to be rearranged to Leo and Aquarius. For Vajra Yoga to form all seven planets would have to be moved in order for all the benefics to be in lagna and 7th and all the malefics in 4th and 10th. For Yava Yoga to form again all the seven planets would have to be rearranged in order for all the malefics to be in the lagna and 7th and all the benefics in the 4th and 10th. For Yupa Yoga to form just two planets, the Moon and Jupiter, would have to be moved to the lagna and 4th in order for all the planets to be in the four houses (1st, 2nd, 3rd, and 4th) commencing from the lagna. For Sara Yoga to form six planets would have to be rearranged for all the planets to fall in the four house commencing from the 4th. For Shakti Yoga to form, six planets would have to be rearranged for all the planets to fall in the four houses commencing from the 7th. For Danda Yoga to form, all seven planets would have to be moved into the four houses commencing from the 10th. For Nauka Yoga to form, four planets would have to be rearranged in order for all the planets to fall in the seven houses commencing from the lagna. For Kuta Yoga to form, five planets would have to be rearranged in order for all the planets to fall in the seven houses commencing from the 4th. For Chatra Yoga to form, six planets would have be rearranged in order for all the planets to fall in the seven houses commencing from the 7th. For Chapa Yoga to form, five planets would have to be rearranged in order for all the planets to fall in the seven houses commencing from the 10th. For Ardha-Chandra Yoga to form, four planets would have to be rearranged in order for all the planets to fall in seven continuous houses commencing from a panaphara or apoklima. For Chakra Yoga to form three planets would have to be rearranged in order for all the planets to fall in six alternate houses commencing from the lagna. For Samudra Yoga to form, five planets would have to be rearranged in order for all the planets to fall in six alternate houses commencing from the second. This exercise indicates that among the Akriti Yogas, the one that is most closely formed is Yupa Yoga, for which only two planets are in need of rearranging. (This is a lot easier than it looks, with a bit of practice you can determine the most closely formed Akriti Yoga in just a few seconds. This is one time I recommend the North India Style chart, where it is easier to see the houses and the angles.) The prevalent Akriti Yoga, Yupa Yoga very much supports the natives spiritual life, he controls his extroversion, and learns to find his happiness in his inner life. Yupa is the sacrificial post, and in the horoscopes of spiritually active natives it allows them to make a sacrifice of life.
