प्रकीर्णाध्यायः
ज्ञात्वा तस्माल्लग्नं संगृह्य शुभाशुभं वदेत्प्रष्टुः ।वर्गादिमध्यचरमैर्वर्णैः प्रश्नोद्भवैर्विषमम् ॥ ३० ॥
From that letter, find the rising sign and tell the asker the good and the bad. The first letter may be the first, middle or last of its group. Then take the planet's odd sign.
Simple meaning: If the first letter is 1st, 3rd or 5th in its group, the planet's odd sign rises.
अकचटतपयशवर्गा रविकुजसितसौम्यजीवसौरीणाम् ।
Each planet has a group of letters. Look at the first letter spoken in the question.
राशिं लग्नं प्रवदेच्छेषैर्युग्मं सितज्ञजीवानाम् ।
Other letters give the planet's even sign. The Sun and Moon have one sign each, so this does not apply.
तस्मात्प्राग्वत्प्रवदेत्पृच्छासमये शुभाशुभं सर्वम् ।
Use this letter method when the time of the question is not known.
