युद्धजयार्णवः (योगाः नक्षत्राणि)
वक्ष्याम्यृक्षात्मकं पिण्डं शुभाशुभविवृद्धये ।यस्मिन्नृक्षे भवेत्सूर्यस्तदादौ त्रीणि मूर्धनि ॥ १ ॥
In the full Agni Purana this is chapter 126, verse 1.
I will tell the nakshatra (star) body figure, to judge the rise of good and bad. Start from the nakshatra the Sun stands in. Put three on the head.
Simple meaning: The Sun's nakshatra is placed on a body figure, starting with three on the head.
एकं मुखे द्वयं नेत्रे हस्तपादे चतुष्टयम् ।
More nakshatras go on the face, eyes, hands, feet, heart and knee. This is read for long life.
शिरःस्थे तु भवेद्राज्यं पिण्डतो वक्त्रयोगतः ।
On the head it brings a kingdom, on the eyes beauty and luck, on the heart saving of wealth.
हस्ते धृतं तस्करत्वं गतासुरध्वगः पदे ।
On the hand it tends to show a thief; on the foot, death while travelling. The Sun's pot stays empty.
