Chapter 13 · Birth of a Son or Daughter
स्त्रीपुंजन्माध्यायः
उदयगते स्त्रीराशौ स्त्रीनवभागेऽपि पुंग्रहाऽदृष्टे ।स्त्रीजन्म भवति तद्वत्स्त्रीद्रेष्काणोदये यवनः ॥ ४ ॥
The rising sign is a female sign. It is in a female navamsha (one-ninth part of a sign). No male planet looks at it. Then a girl will be born. The same holds when a female drekkana (one-third part of a sign) rises. So says Yavana.
Simple meaning: A female rising sign in a female navamsha, unseen by male planets, shows a girl.
ओजर्क्षे पुरुषांशकेषु बलिभिर्लग्नार्कगुर्विन्दुभिः पुंजन्म प्रवदेत्समांशकगतैर्युग्मेषु तैर्योषितः ।
Strong rising sign, Sun, Jupiter and Moon in odd signs show a son. In even signs, a girl.
चन्द्रलग्नान्तरगतैर्ग्रहैः स्युरूपसूतिकाः ।
Planets between the Moon and the rising sign show how many women help at the birth.
बलयुक्तौ स्वगृहांशेष्वर्कसितावुपचयर्क्षगौ पुंसाम् ।
If these planets are strong and well placed for the man or the woman, a child can be conceived.
