Chapter 1 · States of the Planets
प्रश्नावताराध्यायः
दीप्ताद्यं दशभेदं व्योमचराणां निरूप्य भावफलम् ।पृष्टो यद्यत्कथयति शुभाशुभं तत्तदन्यथा नोक्तम् ॥ २ ॥
When asked, the astrologer should first study the ten states of the planets, starting with the bright state. He should also study the results of the houses. Then whatever good or bad he tells will not turn out false.
Simple meaning: If the astrologer studies the planet states and house results first, what he tells will come true.
दीप्तो दीनः स्वस्थो मुदितः सुप्तः प्रपीडितो मुषितः ।
A planet has ten states, from bright and weak to growing strong and extra strong.
स्वोच्चे दीप्तो नीचे दीनः स्वगृहे व्यवस्थितः स्वस्थः ।
A planet is bright in its high sign, weak in its low sign, and happy in a friend's sign.
अन्यैर्विजितो युद्धे निपीडितोऽस्तंगतो मुषितः ।
A planet beaten in a planet war is troubled. One hidden by the Sun is robbed.
