Parigha Yoga
Parigha is the nineteenth of the 27 Yogas in Vedic astrology. The word 'Parigha' translates to an "iron bar" used for locking a gate or an "obstruction." While it sounds challenging, it symbolizes the strength required to protect what is valuable and the power to contain immense energy.

People born under Parigha Yoga are characterized by their protective and sturdy nature. Like an iron bar that secures a fortress, they are the ones who guard their family, culture, and traditions. While this Yoga can indicate initial obstacles or a sense of being "blocked" in early life, it bestows the native with the patience and endurance to eventually break through and achieve lasting security.

Ruling Deity: Vishwakarma (The Celestial Architect)
The presiding deity of Parigha Yoga is Vishwakarma, the architect of the Gods. Vishwakarma is the master of all forms and the one who gives structure to the universe. This connection grants Parigha natives a natural talent for design, construction, and organization. Vishwakarma ensure that the "obstructions" of Parigha are transformed into solid structures—turning challenges into the building blocks of a successful life.
