षोडशयोगाध्यायः
तत्र लग्नेशकार्याधिपयोरित्थशालाभावे कार्यप्राप्तिरेव न जाता तत्र कार्यसम्भवः खपुष्पादिसमस्तयोरित्थशाले कार्य्यप्राप्तिसम्भवेपि लग्नपकार्य्यपाभ्याञ्चंद्रस्य युतीत्थशालासम्भवात्केमद्रुमयोगवदित्थशालफलनाशकः खल्लासरयोगो ज्ञेय इति ॥
If the lagna (rising sign) lord and the work lord have no ithasala (planets moving toward an exact aspect), the work is not gained at all. Then the work cannot come about, like a flower in the sky. Suppose the two do have an ithasala, so gaining the work is possible. Even so, the Moon cannot join or make an ithasala with the lagna lord and the work lord. So know khallasara (the Moon with no link) yoga (planet combination) as one that destroys the result of the ithasala, like the kemadruma (no planet beside the Moon) yoga.
Simple meaning: Without an ithasala of the two lords, the work is not gained. With one, the work is possible. But if the Moon links with neither, khallasara spoils the result, like kemadruma.
एतत् स्पष्टमुक्तं जीर्णताजिके ॥
Khallasara: the two lords have an ithasala or a joining, but the Moon links with neither. It is called not good.
उदाहरणम् ॥
Example, son question: Leo is the rising sign. The Sun is in Aries at 4 degrees. Jupiter, the 5th lord, is in Aquarius at 5 degrees.
लग्नकार्यपयोरस्ति योगो मुथशिलाभिधः ॥
Example continued: the two lords link, but the Moon in the last degree of Virgo links with neither. So khallasara spoils the work.
