Chapter 4 · The Sahamas
सहमाध्यायः
मातापित्रोः सद्मनाथे नष्टे वासस्तयोर्भवेत् ॥उदिते वीर्ययुक्ते वा तयोस्सौख्यम्प्रजायते ॥
Take the lord of the mother's and father's sahamas. When it is set, the two may have a dwelling away. When it is risen or strong, comfort comes to the two.
Simple meaning: Lord of the mother's and father's sahamas set: matters of their dwelling need care. Risen or strong: comfort for them.
सहमं वा तदधीशश्शुभेत्थशालीयुतः क्रूरैः ॥
Father's sahama with good and bad planets together: illness in the early year, relief later.
बलाढ्ये सहमाधीशे नृपान्मानो यशोद्गमः १२॥
Strong sahama lord: honour from the ruler and rising fame. The mother's sahama works the same way.
सुतसहमं शुभयुक्तं शुभग्रहैर्मुथशिलीकृतं स्वपतिना च ॥
Child's sahama strong: gain of a son and a very good result.
