प्रवासचिन्ताध्यायः
अध्वस्थाने सौम्यैरध्वा निरुपद्रवोऽध्वनीनस्य ।भयरोगपरिक्लेशाः पापैर्लग्नस्थितैस्तस्य ॥ १० ॥
If good planets are in the house of the road, the traveller's road is free from trouble. If bad planets are in the rising sign, he may meet fear, illness and distress.
Simple meaning: Good planets in the road house keep the road safe. Bad ones in the rising sign may bring illness.
शुभयुक्ते स्थिरलग्ने सुस्थिरबन्धश्चरे त्वशुभयुक्ते ।
A fixed rising sign with good planets means long confinement. A moving sign with bad planets means quick release.
अरिभिरवलोक्यमानास्त्रिकोणयामित्रगा पापाः ।
Bad planets seen by enemies, with no good planet on the rising sign, risk death on the road.
गृहे ग्रहो यावति लग्नतो भवेत्तदा हता द्वादश राशयः स्फुटम् ।
Count the planet's house from the rising sign, times twelve. In that many days the traveller comes back.
