वर्षेशादिविचाराध्यायः
वीर्यशालिभृगुजेत्थशालिनि साधिकारपदलाभकर्मजे ॥म्लेच्छमंडलविमर्दनक्षमो भूपतिर्गजरथोद्धतो रणे ॥
A planet holding office, one of the adhikari (the planets in charge), may be in the 11th or the 10th. It may be in ithasala (planets moving toward an exact aspect) with a strong Venus. Then he becomes a king, able to crush foreign lands. In battle he rides proud on elephants and chariots.
Simple meaning: An office-holding planet in the 11th or 10th, in ithasala with strong Venus: a chance of royal power.

The five planets in charge in ithasala in corner houses and strong: a chance of kingship.
उत्तरतंत्रे ॥
