Say the lagna (rising sign) is a moving sign. Say its lord is in a fixed sign and in a fixed sign's navamsha (one-ninth part of a sign). Say Jupiter and Venus join it or look at it. This too is called Kurma yoga (planet combination).
Simple meaning: A movable lagna whose lord sits fixed, joined by Jupiter and Venus, also gives Kurma yoga.
विख्यातकीर्तिर्भुवि राजपूज्यो धर्मे रतः सत्त्वगुणप्रधानः ।
Kurma yoga makes a person famous, honoured, happy and good.
गुरोः षष्ठाष्टमे पापे शुक्रे राहुसमन्विते ।
A bad planet 6th or 8th from Jupiter, and Venus with Rahu in the 8th from the Moon, break the combination.
दारिद्र्ययोगमित्याहुर्बाल्ये क्लेशं विनिर्दिशेत् ।
This is a poverty combination that brings hardship in childhood.
