Chapter 6 · The Twelve Houses
द्वादशभावविचाराध्यायः
तस्मिन्बुधे केवलमष्टपाते भौमारिदृष्ट्यापि न शोभनोब्दः ॥तथाष्टगे ज्ञे सबले कुजाक्षियुक्ते विदेशे मरणञ्च बन्धः ॥
Say that Mercury the year lord merely falls in the 8th house. Or say Mars gives him a hostile look. Even then the year is not good. Also, say Mercury is in the 8th, strong, and joined with Mars's look. Then there may be death abroad, and bondage.
Simple meaning: Eighth house: Mercury in the 8th, or under Mars's hostile look, makes a hard year. A strong Mercury there with Mars's look: trouble and confinement far from home.
एते योगास्ताजिकसिन्धावन्यथैवोक्ताः ॥
Eighth house, another text: Sun in israpha with Venus at birth, in charge and in a corner house: fever, worry from rulers, illness.
भौमस्थानेधिकारींदुः पुत्रे वर्षे रुजस्तदा ॥
Eighth house: Moon in charge in Mars's place, illness for a son. Mercury in charge hit by Mars: blood trouble. With Mars and the Sun: trouble far…
तत्रोभयोर्विरोधे एते योगान्तरा एवं ज्ञेयाः॥
Eighth house: where the two texts differ, take these as separate combinations.
