Chapter 3 · The Sixteen Yogas
षोडशयोगाध्यायः
हीनं समं हीनतरं मध्यममेवञ्चन्द्रस्य लग्नेशकार्येशयोश्चाधिकारगवेषणया कम्बूलमुत्तमोत्तमादिषोडशभेदभिन्नम्भवतीति ज्ञेयम् ॥
The ranks are lower, equal, lower still and middle. Look at the rank of the Moon and of the lords of the lagna (rising sign) and the matter. By this, kambula (the Moon supporting the link of two planets) has sixteen kinds. They run from best-best onward.
Simple meaning: Kambula has sixteen kinds, found by the ranks of the Moon and the two lords.
अथोत्तमकम्बूललक्षणं संज्ञातंत्रे ॥
Same verse as Tajika Nilakanthi 2.37; see its meaning there.
अत्रोदाहरणन्तत्रैव ॥
Best-best kambula: Sun or Mars in Aries, Moon in Cancer, with ithasala. The work gets done.
अत्र सन्तानप्रश्ने मेषलग्नं लग्नेशो भौमः स्वगृहे मेषलग्ने विंशत्यंशं पंचमभावाधीशो रविः स्वोच्चे मेषे सप्तदशांशश्चन्द्रः कर्के स्वगृहे चतुर्दशांशः ॥ अत्रार्कभौमयोः कार्य्येशलग्नेशयोरित्थशालयोगोस्ति । चन्द्रोऽपि द्वाभ्यां सहेत्थशालङ्करोति तेन उत्तमोत्तमकम्बूलज्ञातम् ॥ उत्तमोत्तमकार्यङ्करोति सन्तानप्राप्त्याख्यं कार्य्यमवश्यङ्करोतीत्यर्थः ॥
Best-best kambula example: question about a child. Aries rising, Mars at 20, Sun at 17 in Aries, Moon at 14 in Cancer. A child is likely.
