ग्रहाणां गर्वितादिभावाध्यायः
This chapter names six more states, led by proud and glad planets. A planet is proud in its trine sign or high sign.
It is glad in a friend's sign or with Jupiter. The other four are shy, agitated, hungry and thirsty. It then gives the result of each state in the house the planet holds. The chapter closes with a verse about the author's family.
The English below is our translation from the Sanskrit.
ग्रहाणां गर्वितादिभावाध्यायः
कोणे तुङ्गगृहे गतो निगदितः खेटस्तदा गर्वितोमित्रर्क्षे गुरुसंयुतोपि मुदितो मित्रेण युक्तेक्षितः ।पुत्रस्थानगतोऽगुभौमरविजार्कैः संयुतो लज्जितःपापारिग्रहवीक्षितो हि रविणा संक्षोभितः कीर्त्तितः ॥ १ ॥
A planet in its trine sign (its mulatrikona) or in its high sign is called proud (garvita). A planet in a friend's sign, or with Jupiter, or joined or seen by a friend, is glad (mudita). A planet in the 5th house joined with Rahu, Mars, Saturn or the Sun is shy (lajjita). A planet with the Sun and seen by a bad planet or an enemy is called agitated (kshobhita).
Simple meaning: Proud in its high or trine sign, glad with friends, shy in the 5th with harsh planets.
ग्रहाणां गर्वितादिभावाध्यायः
यो मन्दारियुतेक्षितोऽरिभगतः खेटः क्षुधापीडितोयः पापारियुतेक्षितो न च शुभैर्दृष्टस्तृषार्तोऽम्बुभे ।गर्वाढ्यो मुदितोऽथ लज्जित इति प्रक्षोभितः कीर्त्तितोविद्भिः संक्षुधितस्तृषार्त इह षड्भावाः ग्रहाणाममी ॥ २ ॥
A planet in an enemy's sign, joined or seen by Saturn or an enemy, is hungry (kshudhita). Take a planet in a water sign, joined or seen by a bad or enemy planet.

Simple meaning: Hungry: enemy sign, with Saturn or a foe. Thirsty in a water sign with foes, unseen by good planets.
