दीप्तो दीनः स्वस्थो मुदितः सुप्तः प्रपीडितो मुषितः ।परिहीयमानवीर्यः प्रवृद्धवीर्योऽधिवीर्यश्च ॥ ३ ॥
The ten states are: dipta (bright state), dina (weak state), svastha (at-ease state), mudita (happy state), supta (sleeping state). Then prapidita (troubled state), mushita (robbed state), losing strength, growing strength, and extra strong.
Simple meaning: 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.
गच्छन् स्वोच्चाभिमुखं प्रवृद्धवीर्यः समाख्यातः ।
A planet moving to its high sign grows in strength. One in good planets' sign parts is extra strong.
