Chapter 15 · Thoughts on the Rising Sign: War and Travel
लग्नचिन्ताध्यायः
ओजदण्डे पुरश्चन्द्रे पृष्ठेराहौ रणेजयः ।सिद्धिर्दक्षिणगे चन्द्रे हानिर्वामे परे मृतिः ॥ ३६ ॥
If the Moon is in front at the ojadanda, and Rahu is behind, there is victory in battle. If the Moon is on the right, there is success. If it is on the left, there may be loss. If it is behind, there is a risk of death. (Our text is unclear here: the word ojadanda.)
Simple meaning: The Moon in front and Rahu behind may bring victory. The Moon on the left may bring loss.
यात्रादिगीशाद्यदि पंचमेऽन्यो गृहे ग्रहो वीर्ययुतोऽवतिष्ठेत् ।
A strong planet in the 5th from the direction's lord takes the traveller to its own direction.
एकोऽपि जीवज्ञसिताऽसितानां कुजात्त्रिकोणे रवितोऽथवेन्दुः ।
A planet in the 5th or 9th from Mars may turn the traveller away. The stronger one leads.
परस्परं सौरिकुजौ रवीन्दू त्रिकोणगौ भार्गवलोहितौ च ।
Some pairs of planets in the 5th and 9th from each other spoil the result and lead the traveller away.
