What are Kendra and Trikona houses?
Also known as: angular and trine houses
Kendras are the angular houses (1, 4, 7, 10) and Trikonas the trine houses (1, 5, 9). Together they are the strongest, most auspicious houses of the chart.
The 1st house belongs to both groups. Kendras give strength and prominence; Trikonas bring fortune and dharma. A planet linking a Kendra lord and a Trikona lord can form a Raja Yoga.
