The sign occupied by the Atmakarak in the navamsa chart is the KARAKAMSA lagna. The Atmakark is the soul and the karakamsa planets indicate the desire of the soul. The navamsa lagna is called lagnamsa. Benefics in Karaksma and navamsa lagna and aspected by benefics only, gives Rajayogas to the native. If the Karaksma (desire of the soul) and navamsa lagna (easily achieved) are the same then the stage is set for self actualization. If they are in shadastak (6-8 places from each other), then life becomes a bed of roses. All the others karakas from the bhavas have to be considered in the same manner.
