Chapter 3 · The Sixteen Yogas
षोडशयोगाध्यायः
अत्र कम्बूलयोगे भेदोपपत्तौ स्वगृहोच्चावस्थितिरुत्तमोधिकारः स्वहद्दाद्रेष्काणनवांशावस्थितिर्मध्यमोधिकारश्शत्रुनीचगृहावस्थितिरधमोधिकार एतत्त्रितयाधिकारराहित्यं समोधिकारः ॥
Here kambula (the Moon supporting the link of two planets) has kinds, by the rank of the planets. A planet in its own sign or its uchcha (high point) has the best rank. A planet in its own hadda (a planet's own small part of a sign), drekkana (one-third part of a sign) or navamsha (one-ninth part of a sign) has the middle rank. A planet in an enemy's sign or its nicha (low point) has the lowest rank. A planet with none of these three ranks has the equal rank.
Simple meaning: Kambula ranks: own sign or high point is best, own small parts is middle, enemy or low sign is lowest, none of these is equal.
यदाह यादवः ॥
Kambula grades: Moon and both lords in own or high sign, very best; lords in own small parts, middle; without these, lower; low or enemy sign, lower…
हीनं समं हीनतरं मध्यममेवञ्चन्द्रस्य लग्नेशकार्येशयोश्चाधिकारगवेषणया कम्बूलमुत्तमोत्तमादिषोडशभेदभिन्नम्भवतीति ज्ञेयम् ॥
Kambula has sixteen kinds, found by the ranks of the Moon and the two lords.
अथोत्तमकम्बूललक्षणं संज्ञातंत्रे ॥
