Sixth prahar — early night · 21:00–00:00
Jog
जोग
A powerful night raga that plays shuddha and komal Ga against each other and omits Re and Dha. Famous for its dramatic, almost blues-like descending resolution (G-M-g-S); intense and heroic.

Dosha effect
Vata -1 · Pitta ±0 · Kapha ±0(−2 pacifies · +2 aggravates)
A striking night raga — the bold leaps and the komal-Ga resolution have an energising, heroic charge that lifts a sluggish evening while grounding restless vata.
On Mars: Bold, intense, almost martial in its resolve — Jog's heroic vira bhava belongs to Mangal.
