दृष्टिसाङ्गबलेष्टकष्टाद्यानयनाधिकारः
अत्र समगतिविरोधः शीघ्रगत्युदितविरोधोस्तगः एवं सर्वत्रापि ज्ञेयं ॥ अत्र प्रत्येकं सार्द्धविंशोपकद्वयमितं बलं ज्ञेयम्। अथात्र विशेषफलजिज्ञासुना पूर्वोक्तं षड्विधमपि बलं विचार्य्यन्तदभावे सामान्यपञ्चवर्गीबलं विचार्य तदभावेप्यष्टधा बलं विचार्य्यमिति सिद्धान्तः ॥
Here the opposite of samagati (even pace) is fast motion. The opposite of risen is set. So it is to be known everywhere. Here each one is to be known as a strength measured as two and a half vishopaka (twentieth part). Now, one who wants a special result should first consider the sixfold strength told before. If that is not available, consider the general panchavargi (five-part strength). If that is not available either, consider the eightfold strength. This is the settled view.
Simple meaning: Which strength to use: first the sixfold strength, then the five-part strength, then the eightfold strength. In the eightfold strength each part counts two and a half.
अथ द्वादशवर्गीचक्रम् तत्रवामनः ॥
The twelve divisions of a sign: house, hora, drekkana, quarter, fifth, sixth, seventh, eighth, ninth, tenth, eleventh and twelfth.
भौमशुक्रज्ञचंद्रार्कबुधशुक्रारमंत्रिणः ॥
Sign lords from Aries: Mars, Venus, Mercury, Moon, Sun, Mercury, Venus, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, Saturn, Jupiter.
लग्नार्द्धं जायते होरा सर्वलग्नेषु सर्वदा ॥
Hora: half a sign is a hora. In odd signs the horas go to the Sun, then the Moon. In even signs to the Moon, then the Sun.
