     Malika Yoga is one of the wealth yogas described in B. V. Raman's 300 Important Yogas. The name "Malika" is a loose translation for the word "Mala" which means a garland in sanskrit. When the seven planets not counting Rahu and Ketu occupy seven consecutive houses the the yoga formed is called Malika Yoga. The seven planets in adjacent houses create a garland like chain in a horoscope so the term "Malika" is used to describe this yoga.
