Shukra (Venus) rules a kendra (1st, 4th, 7th or 10th house) and a trikona (1st, 5th or 9th) — the 5th and 10th for Makara lagna, the 4th and 9th for Kumbha: your Yogakaraka, the one true Raja yoga graha for these lagnas. It gives comfort, the arts, partnership and fortune, strongest in its dasha, and much happiness when Budh joins it.
