Kendra houses (1st, 4th, 7th, 10th) are the angular houses in Vedic astrology, considered the pillars of the chart providing strength and stability.
The four Kendra (angular) houses form the chart's foundation. The 1st house (Lagna) represents self, 4th represents home and emotions, 7th represents partnerships, and 10th represents career and public life. Planets in Kendra houses gain Kendra Bala (angular strength) in Shadbala calculations. The Pancha Mahapurusha Yogas form only when Mars, Mercury, Jupiter, Venus, or Saturn occupy Kendra houses in their own or exaltation signs.
TriAstra identifies Kendra placements in Shadbala (Sthana Bala) and flags Mahapurusha Yogas when benefics occupy these angular positions.
Planets in your Kendra houses have strong, visible influence on your life. They shape your identity, home, relationships, and career directly.
