कंदृक्ष्रोत्रनसाकपोलहनवो वक्रं च होरादयस्तेकण्ठांसकबाहुपार्श्वहृदयक्रोडानि नाभिस्ततः ।वस्तिः शिश्नगुदे ततश्च वृषणावूरु ततो जानुनी जंघांघ्रीत्युभयत्र वा समुदितै द्रेष्काणभागैस्त्रिधा ॥ १४ ॥
The houses from the rising sign on stand for body parts. With the first drekkana (one-third part of a sign) rising: head, eyes, ears, nose, cheeks, jaws and mouth. With the second: throat, shoulders, arms, sides, heart, chest and navel. With the third: lower belly, the private part and anus, testicles, thighs, knees, calves and feet. The houses are counted on both sides of the rising sign. So the body is read three ways, by the third of the sign that is rising.
Simple meaning: Houses from the rising sign stand for body parts. Which set depends on the third of the sign rising.
तस्मिन्पापयुते व्रणः शुभयुते दृष्टे च लक्ष्मादिशेत्स्वर्क्षांशस्थिरसंयुते च सहजः स्यादन्यथाऽऽगंतुकः ।
Bad planets on a house may show a wound there; good planets show a mark. The planet tells the cause.
समनुपतिता यस्मिन्भागे त्रयः सबुधा ग्रहा भवति नियमात्तस्यावाप्तिः शुभेष्वशुभेषु वा ।
Three planets with Mercury mark a body part. A bad planet in the 6th may cause a wound there.
क्रियः शिरोवक्रगमी वृषोऽन्यः पादांसकौ पृष्ठमुरोऽथपार्श्वे ।
From Aries to Pisces, the signs stand for an animal's body, from the head to the tail.
