If Jupiter is in the enemy house or debilitated and the Gajakesari yoga is also created then the auspiciousness of this yoga may get affected. This yoga with this position of Jupiter is found in 20 to 33% of the people’s chart. Rishi Parashar says if Gajakesari yoga is created, Jupiter should not be retrograde or aspected by any malefic planet in the chart.

Gajakesari yoga created with the help of Venus and Mercury
Some believe that Gajakesari yoga is also created when Venus is in Kendra from Moon. However it is considered that if Venus or Mercury is in Kendra from Moon it increases the auspiciousness of this yoga.
When the yoga created by Mercury, Jupiter or Venus from Moon is included in Gajakesari yoga it is considered auspicious. However the impact of this yoga is not always auspicious or strong, it is found in the 90% of the people’s chart. Due to which it may not be counted among the auspicious yogas.
It has often seen that this yoga is not created when Venus is in Kendra from Moon. Both the signs of Venus make a Shadashak Yoga that means located in the sixth and eighth house from each other. In this situation if one sign of Venus is in Kendra and the other in a malefic house the Gajakesari yoga may get canceled and become inauspicious.
In Gajakesari yoga of Mercury, Moon has its aspect on Jupiter or Mercury. In that situation Moon has to be in the seventh house from both the planets only then Jupiter and Moon will be in Kendra from each other.

This person is clever and smart and plans all his tasks beforehand. This yoga is formed with the help of Jupiter, therefore, it also gives wealth and economic benefits.
Gaja Kesari Yoga and Strength of Jupiter and Moon
The Gajakesari Yoga is created by Jupiter and Moon. Both the planets are never exalted together in the birth-chart. It is because Jupiter is exalted in Cancer and Moon is exalted in Taurus. Both these signs are third and eleventh sign from each other.
That is why due to the position of Moon in the kendra house from Jupiter, it is in the eleventh house which is against the rules of Gajakesari Yoga. The auspiciousness of this yogas gets reduced when the signs of these planets are not located in Kendra. If any of these two planets are located in the exalted sign, the person gets auspicious results.
Gaja kesari Yoga in Char signs
If Jupiter is in its exalted sign or Cancer and Gajakesari Yoga is also created then in this situation, Moon will be located in Aries, Cancer, Libra or Capricorn. Because these signs are located in the kendra house from Cancer, Gajakesari Yoga is created in which Jupiter and Moon both are located in char signs.
Gaja Kesari Yoga in Char Signs There is a lack of stability in the results of Gajakesari Yoga created in char signs. On one hand where this yoga increases the mobility of your profession, on the other hand, it may also bring wealth and economic benefits for you.
Gaja Kesari Yoga in Dual-natured Signs
If Jupiter is located in dual-natured sign such as Gemini, Virgo, Sagittarius or Pisces and Gajakesari Yoga is also created, in that case, Moon should also be located in one of the dual-natured signs because only then this yoga will be formed.
Hence, it is clear that Jupiter and Moon both are in either Char, Stable or dual-natured signs when Gajakesari Yoga is created.
Gajakesari Yoga and Weak Position of Jupiter and Moon
Just as Jupiter and Moon can not be located in the exalted signs during Gajakesari Yoga, similarly they can not be located in the debilitated sign in this yoga. Jupiter is debilitated in Capricorn and Moon in Scorpio. These two signs share a reciprocal relationship when they are third and eleventh from each other.
According to the rules of Gajakesari Yoga, Moon should be in the kendra house from Jupiter. Therefore if this yoga is created in the birth-chart then one of these planets should be debilitated. The karak elements of the planet which is debilitated in this yoga gets affected.
