प्रकीर्णाध्यायः
तस्मात्प्राग्वत्प्रवदेत्पृच्छासमये शुभाशुभं सर्वम् ।कालस्याविज्ञानादेतच्चिन्त्यं सदा प्रश्ने ॥ ३२ ॥
So tell all the good and bad at the time of the question, as before. Always use this in a question when the time is not known.
Simple meaning: Use this letter method when the time of the question is not known.
अकचटतपयशवर्गा रविकुजसितसौम्यजीवसौरीणाम् ।
Each planet has a group of letters. Look at the first letter spoken in the question.
ज्ञात्वा तस्माल्लग्नं संगृह्य शुभाशुभं वदेत्प्रष्टुः ।
If the first letter is 1st, 3rd or 5th in its group, the planet's odd sign rises.
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.
