Kartari Yoga refers to a hemming pattern in Vedic astrology where a house or planet is enclosed between planets on both sides. Shub Kartari is the benefic form and tends to protect, support, or improve the results of the hemmed area, while Paap Kartari is the malefic form and can create pressure, obstruction, or reduced ease.

A Kartari condition is generally formed when the houses on both sides of a target house or planet are occupied, creating a hemming effect. If the hemming planets are benefic, it is treated as Shub Kartari. If the hemming planets are malefic, it is treated as Paap Kartari.

The calculator checks whether the relevant house or planet is enclosed by occupied houses on both sides, then evaluates whether the hemming planets are benefic or malefic for the purpose of Kartari judgement. It also considers whether the hemming effect is strong enough to meaningfully influence the result.

Shub Kartari can support protection, smoother outcomes, and better expression of the hemmed house or planet. Paap Kartari can create restriction, delay, stress, or pressure in the same area, making it harder for that house or planet to express its promise cleanly.

Yes. The final result depends on the strength of the hemmed house or planet, benefic aspects, dignity, and the wider chart context. A strong Lagna, strong lordship, or benefic support can reduce Paap Kartari damage, while affliction can reduce the positive side of Shub Kartari.
