Chapter 4 · Dangers to a Child at Birth
अरिष्टाऽध्यायः
कृशशशिनि तनौ खलोऽष्टकेन्द्रेमृतिरथ शीतरुचौ खलान्तराले ।मुनिहिबुकलयस्थितेपि लग्नेमुनिलयगैश्च सहाम्बया खलैः स्यात् ॥ ७ ॥
The Moon may be weak in the 1st house. A bad planet may be in the 8th or a corner house. The old texts say this shows a risk to the child's life. The same holds when the Moon is between bad planets in the 7th, 4th, 8th or 1st house. When bad planets are in the 7th and 8th houses, the mother's life may also be at risk.
Simple meaning: A weak Moon in the 1st, or a Moon between bad planets, may show a risk.
भविरतिगतशोभनैरदृष्टे शशि
Bad planets in the 5th and 9th, or Moon in 1st with one in 7th, may show risk.
असुरमुखगते खलेन युक्ते
A Moon in the 1st with a bad planet, and Mars in the 8th, may show risk.
सबलशुभखगैर्युतेन दृष्टे तुहिन
Moon or Sun in the 1st, with bad planets in the 5th, 8th and 9th, may show risk.
