Chapter 11 · The Twelve States of a Planet
अवस्थाफलकथनाध्यायः
ग्रहर्क्षसंख्या खगमाननिघ्नीखेटांशसंख्यागुणिता ग्रहाणाम् ।निजेष्टजन्मर्क्षतनुप्रमाणैर्युतार्क तष्टा शयनाद्यवस्था ॥ ३ ॥
How to find the state. Take the number of the nakshatra (star) the planet is in. Multiply it by the planet's own number. Multiply again by the number of the planet's amsha (part of a sign). Add the person's ishta (birth time count), the number of the birth nakshatra and the number of the rising sign. Divide by 12. The remainder gives the state, counted from shayana (lying down).
Simple meaning: A sum made from the planet's nakshatra, number and part of a sign, plus birth details, gives its state.
शेषं शेषहतं स्वराङ्कसहितं तष्टं पुनर्भानुना
A second sum gives three sub-states. The Sun's added number is 5; the others follow in order.
त्रिकोणे वा कर्मण्यपि नयनपाणौ दिनमणेः
Sun with hidden eyes: good in the 5th, 9th, 10th. Shining in the 5th or 7th: risk to children.
पुण्यबाधाकरः पुण्यभे भोजने
The Sun may block good deeds, or defeat enemies. In the 7th or 5th, it may harm wife and son.
