Chapter 6 · The Twelve Houses
द्वादशभावविचाराध्यायः
हिल्लाजः ॥यदि लग्नेशपुत्रेशौ मित्रोच्चोपचयर्क्षगौ ॥गुरुज्ञवीक्षितौ युक्तौ पुत्रसौख्यकरौ मतौ ॥
The lagna (rising sign) lord and the 5th lord may stand in a friend's sign, in uchcha (high point) or in an upachaya (growth house) sign. They may be looked at by Jupiter and Mercury and joined with them. They are held to give comfort from children.
Simple meaning: Lagna lord and 5th lord in a friend's, high or growth-house sign, with Jupiter and Mercury: comfort from children.
लग्नात्केन्द्रत्रिकोणस्थौ विषमांशगतावुभौ ॥
Both in a corner or luck house from the lagna: odd navamsha gives a son, even navamsha a girl.
नीचास्तारिगतावेतौ यदि वक्रग्रहान्वितौ ॥
If both are low, set, in an enemy's sign, or with retrograde planets, the combination is spoiled.
अत्र संतानयोगकर्तारो यदा विषमर्क्षे विषमनवांशे वा स्थिताः पुत्रजन्मकराः समभे समनवांशे च कन्याजन्मकरास्स्युरिति विशेषः ॥
Child-giving planets in odd signs give a son. In even signs they give a daughter.
