Chapter 3 · Gain and Loss
लाभाऽलाभाध्यायः
चन्द्रश्चतुर्थे यदि सप्तमे शुभो विलग्नगो वा दशमे विवस्वान् ।सद्योऽर्थलाभो मनुजस्य वाच्यस्तदेति सत्यो बलिरेवमाह ॥ ४ ॥
The Moon may be in the 4th house. Or a good planet may be in the 7th or the 1st house. Or the Sun may be in the 10th house. Then the astrologer should say the man will soon gain wealth. So say Satya and Bali.
Simple meaning: Moon in the 4th, a good planet in the 7th or 1st, or Sun in the 10th: quick gain.
चन्द्रं सप्तदशद्विषष्ठसहजायस्थानसंस्थं शुभः पश्येद्वै प्रमदाकृतं शुभफलं लाभादिकं स्यात्तदा ।
A good planet looking at the Moon brings gain. Bad planets in some houses may bring fear and loss.
त्रिकोणकेन्द्रालयगाः शुभग्रहास्तथाऽशुभाश्च त्र्यरिलाभगा यदि ।
Good planets in corner and luck houses, and bad ones in the 3rd, 6th, 11th, bring quick gain.
वृषहर्य्यालिघटैः स्थानप्राप्तिं वदेन्न चरराशौ ।
A fixed sign rising shows a place gained, a moving sign does not. A dual sign gives half of each.
