ग्रहावस्थाफलकथनाध्यायः
लुप्तोऽस्ते नीचभे दीनः पीडितः पापशत्रुभे ।एवमष्टौ न भोगानां भावा दीप्तादिभेदतः ॥ ४ ॥
A planet that is set near the Sun is in the lost (lupta) state. In its low sign it is sad (dina). In the sign of a bad planet or of an enemy it is troubled (pidita). So the states of the planets are eight, by this division into shining and the rest.
Simple meaning: A planet set near the Sun is lost, in its low sign sad, in a bad or enemy sign troubled.
दीप्ते मदोन्मत्तगजेन्द्रगन्ता
A planet in the shining state may make the person famous, strong against enemies and a king.
स्वस्थे गुणागारजयालयाना
A planet at ease may bring good qualities, homes, victory, respect from kings and wide fame.
हर्षिते भवति हर्षितः सदा
A glad planet may bring joy, friends, sons, jewels, learning and skill in astrology.
