Chapter 13 · Birth of a Son or Daughter
स्त्रीपुंजन्माध्यायः
बलयुक्तौ स्वगृहांशेष्वर्कसितावुपचयर्क्षगौ पुंसाम् ।स्त्रीणां वा कुजचन्द्रौ यदा तदा सम्भवति गर्भः ॥ ७ ॥
For men: the Sun and Venus are strong and in growth houses. They are in their own signs or navamshas (one-ninth parts of a sign). For women: Mars and the Moon are placed the same way. Then a child can be conceived.
Simple meaning: 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.
भृगुसुतो वसुधातनयो गुरुर्दिनपतिः शशभृद्रविनन्दनः ।
These planets rule the months of pregnancy, from the 1st month to the 10th.
