In the full Agni Purana this is chapter 125, verse 36.
From the south-east up to the north-east, starting from the full moon, dear. In the east, until the dark eighth, when Rahu looks, there is victory.
Simple meaning: From the full moon on, Rahu moves through the directions, and his look brings victory.
ऐशान्याग्नेयनैर्ऋत्यवायव्ये फणिराहुकः ।
Snake Rahu sits in the corner directions. Death comes where the Sun is in front.
तृतीया कृष्णपक्षे तु सप्तमी दशमी तथा ।
