PJC 4 Topics
This year’s curriculum will begin with Nābhasa Yogas, which establish the ākāśic foundation of the chart—the subtle framework within which all yogas reside. We will then study the Yogakāraka Adhyāya, illustrating how planets interact and influence one another, followed by an exploration of the Candra and Sūrya Yogas, which reveal how one accesses and utilizes resources.
A detailed study of wealth and poverty yogas will follow, providing insight into the karma of money within the natal chart. An additional teaching will focus on interpreting various additional Yogas, deepening understanding of their karmic implications.
