Nipuna Yoga

Description: Nipuna yoga (in Sanskrit निपुण योग, IAST: Nipuṇa yoga) is a compound word: nipuna (clever, perspicacious, skilful, qualified, knowledgeable) + yoga (union).

By Nipuna yoga is meant the placement of Mercury and the Sun in one sign no closer than 10° from each other. This is a favourable combination, indicating a strong intellect in its owner. A person born with such a yoga will be skilful, erudite, an expert in his field, and will enjoy renown and respect.

The degree of favourableness of this yoga depends largely on the other planetary combinations and influences.

Another name for this yoga is Budha-Aditya yoga.
