Chapter 4 · The Sahamas
सहमाध्यायः
दिवसे च वर्षलग्ने दिनखेटानां निशागतोन्येषाम् ॥बलमधिकं क्रूरस्थाने च शुभैरशुभमन्यथा तु शुभमिति ॥
When the year lagna (rising sign of the year chart) falls by day, the day planets have more strength. When it falls at night, the others have more strength. In a harsh place, good planets give bad. Otherwise, it is good.
Simple meaning: Day and night planets: day planets are stronger in a day year chart, the others at night. Good planets in a harsh place give bad.
दिनखेटाः पुंग्रहाः अन्येषां स्त्रीग्रहाणामिति ॥
Day planets are the male planets. The rest are female planets.
अथ सहमस्य बलाबलमुक्तं रोमकेण ॥
A sahama is strong when its lord or good planets join or see it, or when its lord is strong.
विपर्यये निर्बलत्वमष्टमाधिपसंयुतम् ॥
A sahama is weak in the opposite case, with the 8th lord, or with a bad planet in ithasala. Its result then does not come in the year.
