बालवे कौलवे नागे तैतिले करणे यदि ।उत्तिष्ठन्संक्रमत्यर्कस्तदा लोकः सुखी भवेत् ॥ ६८ ॥
In the full Agni Purana this is chapter 121, verse 68.
Say the karana (half of a moon day) is Balava, Kaulava, Naga or Taitila. If the Sun enters a sign standing up then, people are happy.
Simple meaning: When the Sun enters a sign during these four karanas, people are happy.
गरे बवे वणिग्विष्टौ किंस्तुघ्ने शकुनौ व्रजेत् ।
The Sun's entry during these karanas brings the people trouble.
चतुष्पाद्विष्टिवाणिज्ये शयितः संक्रमेद्रविः ।
The Sun's entry in a lying position, during these karanas, brings famine and war.
कृत्तिकायां नवदिनं त्रिरात्रं रोहिणीषु च ।
Trouble starting in Krittika lasts nine days, Rohini three, Mrigashira five. Ardra can bring death.
