Chapter 1 · Muhurta: Marriage, Home, Farming
ज्योतिःशास्त्रम्
गोषु यात्रां न कुर्वीत प्रवेशं नैव कारयेत् ।अनिलोत्तररोहिण्यां मृगमूलपुनर्वसौ ॥ ४५ ॥
In the full Agni Purana this is chapter 121, verse 45.
Do not send cows out on a journey. Do not bring them in either. Svati, Uttara, Rohini, Mrigashira, Moola and Punarvasu. (Our text is unclear here: which rule this list goes with.)
Simple meaning: Do not move cows out or in under the stars of the last verse.
पुष्यश्रवणहस्तेषु कृषिकर्म समाचरेत् ।
Farming is done under Pushya, Shravana and Hasta.
गुरोः शुक्रस्य वारे वा वारे च सोमभास्वतोः ।
Do it on these days with Taurus, Virgo or Gemini rising.
द्विपञ्चदशमी सप्त तृतीया च त्रयोदशी ।
These moon days and stars are good for farming work.
