युद्धजयार्णवः (योगाः नक्षत्राणि)
पुच्छस्थितेन कीर्तिः स्याद्राहुदृष्टे च भे मृतिः ।पुनरन्यं प्र(न्यत्प)वक्ष्यामि रविराहुबलं तव ॥
In the full Agni Purana this is chapter 126, verse 10.
By the one on the tail, fame. Death comes in a nakshatra (star) that Rahu looks at. Next I will tell you something else: the strength of the Sun and Rahu.
Simple meaning: Tail brings fame. A nakshatra that Rahu looks at can bring death.
रविः शुक्रो बुधश्चैव सोमः सौरिर्गुरुस्तथा ।
Eight planets share the day in turns, each for about an hour and a half.
सौरिं रविं च राहुं च कृत्वा यत्नेन पृष्ठतः ।
Keeping Saturn, the Sun and Rahu behind you helps win battles, gambling and journeys.
रोहिणी चोत्तरास्तिस्रो मृगः पञ्च स्थिराणि हि ।
Rohini, the three Uttaras and Mrigashira are fixed nakshatras. Five more are named next.
