Chapter 13 · Birth of a Son or Daughter
स्त्रीपुंजन्माध्यायः
चन्द्रलग्नान्तरगतैर्ग्रहैः स्युरूपसूतिकाः ।बहिरन्तश्च चक्रार्धे दृश्याऽदृश्याऽन्यथा परे ॥ ६ ॥
The women who help at the birth are as many as the planets between the Moon and the rising sign. Those in the half of the chart that can be seen are outside the room. Those in the hidden half are inside. Others say it is the other way round.
Simple meaning: 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.
सौरांशेऽब्जांशे वा चन्द्रः सौरान्वितोऽथवा हिबुके ।
The Moon in Saturn's or its own navamsha, or with Saturn in the 4th: no lamp at the birth.
पापद्वयमध्यसंस्थितौ लग्नेन्दू न च सौम्यवीक्षितौ ।
Rising sign or Moon between two bad planets, unseen by good ones: the pregnant woman is at risk.
