Chapter 3 · Name Letters and Chakras
युद्धजयार्णवः (चक्राणि)
मात्रावर्णाश्चतुर्निघ्ना वर्णपिण्डे गुणे कृते ।समे स्त्री विषमे ना स्याद्विशेषे च मृतिः स्त्रियाः ॥ ४ ॥
In the full Agni Purana this is chapter 142, verse 4.
Multiply the vowel marks and the letters by four, and then the letter total by the multiplier. If even, it is a woman. If odd, a man. In a special case, a woman's death.
Simple meaning: Multiplying the name's counts gives even for a woman and odd for a man. In a special case, a woman may die.
प्रथमं रूपशून्येऽथ प्रथमं म्रियते पुमान् ।
If the count leaves nothing, the man dies first. The question is read from the fine letters.
शनिचक्रं प्रवक्ष्यामि तस्य दृष्टिं परित्यजेत् ।
In the Shani chakra, avoid Saturn's look. He looks at the 7th, and more strongly at the 4th and 10th.
एकद्व्यष्टद्वादशमः पाददृष्टिश्च तत्त्यजेत् ।
Avoid Saturn's quarter look too. The day's lord rules three hours, each other planet an hour and a half.
