Chapter 2 · Good and Bad Results
शुभाऽशुभाध्यायः
मूर्द्धोदये सौम्यविलग्नगे वा लग्नेऽपि वा सौम्ययुते शुभं स्यात् ।अतोऽन्यथात्वे तु तदन्यथात्वं मिश्रं विमिश्रैरधिकं बलाढ्यैः ॥ २० ॥
The result is good if the rising sign rises head first, or a good planet is in it. It is also good if a good planet joins the rising sign. If it is the other way, the result is the other way. If mixed, the result is mixed. The stronger side gives more of its result.
Simple meaning: Good planets with the rising sign bring good results. Bad ones may bring bad results. The stronger side decides.
केन्द्रोपगा नवमपंचमगाश्च सौम्याः केन्द्राष्टवर्ज्यमशुभास्त्रिषडायसंस्थाः ।
Good planets in the 1st, 4th, 5th, 7th, 9th, 10th help, and bad ones in the 3rd, 6th, 11th.
केन्द्रादिनाथो यदि लग्नगः स्यात्तन्मित्रमेतस्य च केन्द्रगं वा ।
Good if the rising sign's lord or his friend is well placed, and bad planets avoid key houses.
नरराशिलग्नमभिवीक्षितं शुभैरुदयास्तबन्धुदशगैः शुभैस्तथा ।
A human-sign rising sign, good planets in the corner houses and bad ones in the 3rd, 6th, 11th bring gain.
