One enjoys a long life and luxury in food and other pleasures, has the respect of learned and spiritual individuals, and is well educated, virtuous and charitable. Jupiter in an angle from the 9th lord gives wisdom, Venus in an angle from the 11th lord indicates the gain of luxuries and pleasure, and Mercury in an angle from the lagna lord or 10th lord gives the capacity for good deeds. Vishnu Yoga: The navamsa lord of the 9th lord joins the 10th lord in the 2nd with the 9th lord. One leads a happy and enjoyable life, accumulating fortune in various lands.

The combination of the 9th and 10th lords in the 2nd indicates that the natives purposeful activities are a source of security and reward.
