Chapter 6 · Children in the Birth Chart
पुत्रभावविचाराध्यायः
अर्के कर्कगते हरौ भृगुसुते मन्दे तुलायामजेचंद्रे यस्य नरस्य जन्मसमये वीर्यच्युतोऽसौ भवेत् ।लग्ने चंद्रयुते गुरौ रविसुते पुत्रेपि वीर्य्यच्युतोजीवेङ्गे सरवौ मृतावपि कुजे क्लीवर्क्षगे कण्टके ॥ ६ ॥
At a man's birth, the Sun may be in Cancer and Venus in Leo. Saturn may be in Libra and the Moon in Aries. Then his seed may be weak, and fathering a child may be hard. Jupiter may be in the rising sign with the Moon, and Saturn in the 5th house. Then too his seed may be weak. Jupiter may be in the rising sign with the Sun, and Mars in the 8th house. Mars may also be in a neuter sign in a corner house. (Our text is unclear here: whether the last two Mars placements are one more case or part of the Jupiter case.)
Simple meaning: Some placements of the Sun, Moon, Venus, Saturn, Jupiter and Mars may make fathering a child hard.
Classical view, not medical advice.
कन्याराशिगते लग्ने बुधमन्दावलोकिते ।
With Virgo rising and these planets placed so, a man may find it hard to have a child.
नीचे गुरौ भृगौ वापि समे ज्ञे विषमे रवौ
Jupiter or Venus in its low sign, with Mercury and Sun placed so, may hold back child joy.
कर्कटे तु कलानाथे पापयुक्तेक्षिते यदा ।
With this Moon and Sun placement, a son may come only at about the age of 60.
