Chapter 6 · The Twelve Houses
द्वादशभावविचाराध्यायः
यस्मिन् गेहे लग्नपतिस्तदीशः स्याच्छुभे गृहे ॥शुभकार्य्यस्य सिद्धिः स्याद्विपरीते न संभवः॥
Look at the lord of the sign where the lagna (rising sign) lord stands. If he is in a good house, a good work succeeds. If it is the opposite, it is not possible.
Simple meaning: The lord of the sign where the lagna lord stands: in a good house, a good work succeeds. Otherwise not.
नीचस्थिते चास्तमिते अशुभर्क्षस्थिते तथा ॥
If the lord of the lagna lord's sign is at its low point, set or in a bad sign, the work turns out badly.
लग्नकार्यपयोर्योगः शुभयोः सिद्धिकृद्भवेत् ॥
Lagna lord joined with the lord of the matter: both good brings success. Both bad gives small results.
हिल्लाजः ॥
Good planets in the 1st, 5th and 9th give comfort and wealth.
