What is this Yoga?
Neechabhanga Raja Yoga occurs when a debilitated planet's weakness is cancelled, transforming it into a source of great strength. The concept is that struggle and initial weakness, when properly supported, produce extraordinary achievement — like a person who overcomes disability to become a champion.
Several conditions cancel debilitation: the lord of the debilitation sign is in a kendra from Lagna or Moon; the lord of the exaltation sign aspects the debilitated planet; the debilitated planet is in a kendra; or the debilitated planet is conjunct an exalted planet.
