Chapter 2 · Good and Bad Results
शुभाऽशुभाध्यायः
केन्द्रादिनाथो यदि लग्नगः स्यात्तन्मित्रमेतस्य च केन्द्रगं वा ।व्ययाष्टकेन्द्राण्यपहाय पापाश्चान्यत्र याता यदि तच्छुभं स्यात् ॥ २२ ॥
It is good if the lord of the rising sign is in the rising sign. It is also good if his friend is in one of the 1st, 4th, 7th or 10th houses. It is good too if bad planets go elsewhere. They should stay out of the 12th, 8th, 1st, 4th, 7th and 10th.
Simple meaning: 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.
कन्यातुला च मिथुनं च घटो नृराशिश्चैतेषुसौम्यसहितेषु शुभं विभाव्यम् ।
Human signs with good planets are good. Bad planets in the rising sign, and a bad Moon, are not good.
चतुष्पदे वा द्विपदे विलग्ने पापग्रहस्तेन तदीक्षितेश्च ।
A bad planet on a four- or two-footed rising sign: growth comes only if good planets also look at it.
