What is Gajakesari Yoga?
Gajakesari means 'elephant and lion'. It forms when Guru (Jupiter) is in a kendra (1st, 4th, 7th or 10th house) from the Moon, and is one of the most quoted yogas for good fortune.
Effects
It gives intelligence, respect, a good name that lasts, help from influential people and steady prosperity. People with it often become advisers, teachers or leaders.
When it is strong or weak
It works fully when Jupiter and the Moon are strong, not combust or debilitated, and not with Rahu or Ketu. A Jupiter in Makara or an afflicted Moon reduces the results.
A single placement is never read alone: sign, aspects, conjunctions, dasha and the whole chart change the outcome.
