Chapter 6 · The Twelve Houses
द्वादशभावविचाराध्यायः
उक्तञ्च यादवेन ॥भावम्परस्यानधिगम्य धीमान्दृष्टेपि वक्तुं सहिताहितं क्षमः ॥तथैव तत्त्वादिकभावजातं शुभाशुभन्तद्विवृणोम्यथाहम् ॥
Even without grasping another person's bhava (inner state), a wise person who has seen the chart is able to tell what is good or harmful for him. In the same way, I now explain the group of houses that begins with 'tattva', with their good and bad results. (Our text is unclear here: the houses are said to begin with 'tattva', where the chapter title names the body house.)
Simple meaning: Introduction: even without knowing another's mind, a wise person who sees the chart can tell his good and bad. The houses and their good and bad results come next.
द्वादशभावानां संज्ञा समरसिंहेनोक्ता ॥
Names of the 12 houses: body, wealth, brothers, friend, child, enemy, wife, the end, duty, work, gain, loss.
अथ सामान्यतो भावविचार उक्तोब्दतन्त्रे ॥
Same verse as Tajika Nilakanthi 9.1; see its meaning there.
अत्र स्वामिशुभग्रहाणां युतौ दृष्टा वा तद्भावसंबन्धि स्वस्य सौख्यं कोर्थः ॥ तद्भावोक्तशुभपदार्थानां वृद्ध्या अशुभपदार्थानान्नाशेन च सुखम् ॥ पापैस्तद्भावोक्तोऽशुभपदार्थवृद्ध्या शुभपदार्थनाशेन च स्वस्य दुःखमेवम्मिश्रैः सौम्यपापैर्मिश्रं शुभमशुभञ्च ॥ तत्र सौम्याधिक्ये सुखाधिक्यन्दुष्टं फलं पापाधिक्ये दुःखाधिक्यशुभफलं ज्ञेयम् ॥ तुल्यत्वे क्रूरसौम्यानां बलाबलविवेकेन फलनिर्देशः ॥
A house with its lord and good planets: happiness. Bad planets: sorrow. Mixed planets: a mixed result. When equal, judge by strength.
