विवाहविचाराध्यायः
चरालयस्थौ यदि लग्नचन्द्रौ विलोक्यमानौ भृगुनन्दनेन ।पापग्रहाः कण्टकसंगताश्चेत्प्रभूतकान्तां लभते तदानीम् ॥ १३ ॥
The rising sign and the Moon may be in moving signs. Venus looks at them. Bad planets are in the corner houses. Then the asker gets a wife. (Our text is unclear here: the words may mean a very lovely wife, or many wives.)
Simple meaning: Moving signs, Venus looking, and bad planets in corner houses bring the asker a wife.
सक्रूरौ कुरुतोऽमृतांशुशशिजौ षष्ठे स्त्रियं दुर्भगां कुर्वाते शशिभार्गवौ च कुलटामाये च जायास्थितौ ।
Moon, Mercury and Venus in these houses, with bad planets, tend to bring an unlucky, unfaithful or widowed wife.
लग्नात्स्मरेशत्रिसुतारिगश्चेद् गुर्वर्कसौम्यैः शशभृन्न चान्यैः ।
The Moon in a good house, seen only by good planets, brings marriage soon. Bad planets bring delay.
लग्नगं शशिसुतं शशिनं वा वीक्षते बलयुतो यदि शुक्रः ।
Strong Venus looking at Mercury or the Moon in the 1st house brings a wife soon. Bad planets stop this.
