Chapter 7 · Victory and Defeat
जयपराजयाध्यायः
भूमिनन्दनतीव्रभानुशनैश्चरैः सहजस्थितैर्लग्नगैश्च शुभग्रहैरिह प्रच्छतां विजयः स्फुटः ।लग्नशालिनि वा गुरौ विशुभैस्तु लाभगृहगतैः कर्मगैरथवा जयो भवतीति चाह पराशरः ॥ १६ ॥
Mars, the Sun and Saturn are in the 3rd house, and good planets are in the rising sign. Then the asker's victory is clear. Or Jupiter is in the rising sign, and bad planets are in the 11th or the 10th house. Then too victory comes. So says Parashara.
Simple meaning: Mars, Sun and Saturn in the 3rd with good planets in the 1st bring clear victory.
क्षितिसुतसूर्यसुतौ यदि षष्ठे सुरगुरुचन्द्रमसौ यदि विलग्ने ।
Mars, Saturn, Jupiter, Moon, Mercury, Venus and Sun so placed bring victory.
नवमात्मजलग्नगैरिह स्याच्छनिशीतांशुकुजैर्नृपस्य भंगः ।
Saturn, Moon and Mars in the 9th, 5th and rising sign may bring the king's defeat.
अष्टमे कुजयुते शनैश्चरे लग्नगे च मरणं दिवाकरे ।
Saturn with Mars in the 8th and the Sun in the 1st bring a risk of death.
