Chapter 6 · Children in the Birth Chart
पुत्रभावविचाराध्यायः
यावन्मितानामिह पुत्रभावेनरग्रहाणामिह दृष्टयः स्युः ।तावन्त एवास्य भवन्ति पुत्राःकन्यामितिः स्त्रीग्रहदृष्टितुल्या ॥ ३ ॥
As many male planets as look at the 5th house, so many sons the person tends to have. The number of daughters follows the number of female planets that look at it.
Simple meaning: Male planets looking at the 5th house show the sons. Female planets looking at it show the daughters.
सहजभावपतिः सहजे यदा
The 3rd lord in the 1st, 2nd, 3rd, 5th or 12th house may bring a risk to children.
शुक्राङ्गारनिशाकरा द्वितनुगाः सन्तानसौख्यं नृणा
Venus, Mars and Moon in dual signs, except Sagittarius, usually give early child joy.
अर्के कर्कगते हरौ भृगुसुते मन्दे तुलायामजे
Some placements of the Sun, Moon, Venus, Saturn, Jupiter and Mars may make fathering a child hard.
