Chapter 4 · The Sahamas
सहमाध्यायः
पूर्वोक्तप्रकारेण दारिद्र्यादिसहमानि तदधिपानि च चेद्बलयुक्तानि तदा तत्संबन्धिदुःखं वक्तव्यं तेषान्निर्बलत्वे तत्तन्नाशादिना तत्तत्संबन्धिसुखमित्यर्थः ॥
As told before, take the Daridrya (poverty) sahama (special point for one life topic) and the others like it. If they and their lords are strong, tell the trouble that goes with each. If they are weak, their loss and the like bring the matching comfort. This is the meaning.
Simple meaning: Strong bad sahamas bring their trouble. When they are weak, they fade and the matching comfort comes.
जीर्णताजिके ॥
Sahamas with good planets and ithasala: astrologers judge a person's good and bad from them. Otherwise not.
समरसिंहः॥
Look at every sahama at birth and in the year chart, then judge. The year lord and lagna lord give the result of the place they stand in.
एवं सामान्यतस्सर्वसहमफलविचारः कर्त्तव्य इति ॥
This ends the general rules for the results of all sahamas.
