Chapter 6 · The Twelve Houses
द्वादशभावविचाराध्यायः
वर्षतंत्रे ॥पतिते ज्ञे क्रूरदृशामित्थशाले मृतिं वदेत् ॥कुजहद्दास्थिते नाशः सौम्यदृष्टे शुभं वदेत् ॥
If Mercury has fallen and is in ithasala (planets moving toward an exact aspect) with the harsh-looking ones, say that death may come. If he stands in Mars's hadda (a planet's own small part of a sign), there may be ruin. If good planets look at him, say it is good.
Simple meaning: Eighth house: a fallen Mercury in ithasala with harsh-looking planets may bring a serious time. In Mars's small part: loss. A good look helps.
पतिते क्रूराक्रांते तथा बुधे भौमहद्दास्थिते नाशोऽश्वादिद्रव्यस्येत्यर्थः ॥
Eighth house: Mercury hit by bad planets, or in Mars's small part, may lose horses and other goods.
यादवेनाष्टमस्थस्य बुधस्याधिकारहीनस्य भौमेत्थशालयुतस्य फलमुक्तम् ॥
Eighth house: Mercury not in charge, in the 8th, in ithasala with Mars, may bring a serious time.
लग्नाधिपे नष्टदग्धे योषिद्वादो शुभान्वितम् ॥
