Chapter 4 · The Sahamas
सहमाध्यायः
सुतसहमञ्च तदीशः पापयुतः सौम्यमुथशीलः ॥पूर्वं सुतस्य दुःखं पश्चात्सौख्यं भवेद्वर्षे ॥
Take the Putra (son) sahama (special point for one life topic) and its lord, joined by bad planets and in good ithasala (planets moving toward an exact aspect). In the year there is first sorrow for the son. Comfort comes afterwards.
Simple meaning: Child's sahama with bad planets and a good link: worry for the son first, comfort later.
सुतसहमम्पापयुतम्मुथशिलगं वा सुतस्य नाशस्स्यात् ॥
Child's sahama with bad planets: a hard time for the son.
मिश्रग्रहैश्च युक्तं सुतस्य सहमम्पापमूसरिःफम् ॥
Child's sahama with mixed planets, moving apart: trouble for the son and quarrels.
पुत्रसद्मेश्वरे नष्टे पुत्रनाशं विनिर्दिशेत् ॥
Son's sahama lord set: a hard time for the son. Risen and placed in the son's place: gain of a son.
