Chapter 2 · Good and Bad Results
शुभाऽशुभाध्यायः
भावः स्वेशेनेक्षितो वा युतः स्यात्पापादन्यैर्वापि तस्यास्ति वृद्धिः ।सौम्या यस्यान्त्यास्तखस्वांबुगा वा पापैरेवं हानिरादेशनीया ॥ २ ॥
A house grows if its own lord looks at it or joins it. It also grows if planets other than bad ones do. It grows too if good planets stand in the 12th, 7th, 10th, 2nd or 4th from it. In the same way, bad planets there show loss.
Simple meaning: A house grows when its lord or good planets help it. Bad planets in the same places show loss.
पर्यायसंज्ञा चैतेषां कथ्यते मुनिसंमता ।
