Matrudirgayur Yoga: Longevity of the Mother: 10 Powerful Insights
March 5, 2025 Table of Contents
Introduction
Matrudirgayur Yoga is a highly auspicious planetary combination in Vedic astrology that signifies a long life and good health for the native’s mother. Since the 4th house represents the mother, home, and emotional stability, its strength and benefic influences ensure the mother enjoys a long, healthy, and stable life.
A person with Matrudirgayur Yoga will have the blessings of their mother for a long time, and their mother will likely be a guiding force throughout their life. This yoga can indicate a strong and nurturing maternal figure who supports the native emotionally, physically, and spiritually.
There are two main variations of Matrudirgayur Yoga, both leading to the same effect—the mother having a long and stable life:
First Variation
- A benefic planet (Jupiter, Venus, Mercury, or an unafflicted Moon) is located in the 4th house.
- The 4th house lord is exalted, ensuring stability and strength to the house representing the mother.
- The Moon is strong, which means it is in its own sign (Cancer), exalted (Taurus), or well-placed in a benefic house without affliction.
Second Variation
- The Navamsha dispositor of the 4th house lord is strong and placed in a Kendra (1st, 4th, 7th, or 10th house) from either the Lagna or the Moon.
- Since the Navamsha chart (D9) refines planetary results, if the 4th house lord’s Navamsha dispositor is powerful, it adds strength to the mother’s well-being and longevity.
This blog explores how Matrudirgayur Yoga forms, its effects, challenges, remedies, and example case studies to illustrate its impact.
Formation of Matrudirgayur Yoga
To confirm the presence of Matrudirgayur Yoga, one of the following conditions must exist in a birth chart:
First Variation: Benefic in the 4th House + Exalted 4th House Lord + Strong Moon
- The 4th house represents the mother, home, and emotions.
- If a benefic planet (Jupiter, Venus, Mercury, or an unafflicted Moon) is placed in the 4th house, it ensures maternal longevity.
- The 4th house lord being exalted further strengthens the mother’s life force, stability, and protection.
- If the Moon is strong (in own sign, exalted, or well-placed without afflictions), it provides mental peace and health to the mother.
Second Variation: Navamsha Dispositor of 4th House Lord Strong & in Kendra from Lagna or Moon
- The Navamsha chart (D9) refines the planetary results of the birth chart (D1).
- If the planet ruling the sign where the 4th house lord is placed in Navamsha (D9) is strong and positioned in a Kendra (1st, 4th, 7th, or 10th house) in D1, it enhances the mother’s longevity and strength.
Example Formations of Matrudirgayur Yoga
To understand how this yoga manifests, let’s take two different birth chart examples—one for each variation of Matrudirgayur Yoga.
Example 1: First Variation (Benefic in 4th House + Exalted 4th House Lord + Strong Moon)
Birth Chart Details:
- Ascendant (Lagna): Leo (Simha)
- 4th House: Scorpio (Vrischika)
- 4th House Lord: Mars (Mangal)
- Mars is placed in Capricorn (Exalted) in the 6th House
- Venus (Benefic) is placed in the 4th House (Scorpio)
- Moon is placed in Cancer (Own Sign) in the 12th House
Analysis:
- Mars, the 4th house lord, is exalted in Capricorn, strengthening the yoga’s effects.
- Venus, a benefic planet, is placed in the 4th house, ensuring peace and longevity for the mother.
- Moon is strong in Cancer, making the maternal influence nurturing and emotionally fulfilling.
- This person’s mother will have a long and healthy life, possibly being a strong and independent woman who plays a major role in their life.
Example 2: Second Variation (Navamsha Dispositor of 4th House Lord Strong & in Kendra from Lagna or Moon)
Birth Chart Details:
- Ascendant (Lagna): Virgo (Kanya)
- 4th House: Sagittarius (Dhanu)
- 4th House Lord: Jupiter (Guru)
- Jupiter is placed in Taurus in Navamsha (D9 Chart)
- Taurus Lord (Venus) is placed in the 10th House in the Birth Chart (D1), a Kendra from Lagna
Analysis:
- The 4th house lord (Jupiter) is placed in Taurus in the Navamsha (D9 Chart).
- The dispositor of Jupiter in Navamsha is Venus, which is placed in a Kendra (10th house) in the birth chart.
- This confirms Matrudirgayur Yoga as it ensures the mother’s health and longevity.
- The native’s mother will live a long, prosperous life and may have a strong role in shaping the native’s career or social reputation.
