Savitri, Kamala (Lakshmi), Gauri, the Nasatyas (the Ashvins), the Pitris (ancestors) and Aditi. Then Vaidhriti and Vyatipata (a bad Sun and Moon yoga). They are the two great pata (fall-point fault) yogas (Sun-Moon yoga of the almanac). They are always bad.
Simple meaning: The yoga lord list ends. Vaidhriti and Vyatipata are always bad.
