द्वादशभावविचाराध्यायः
अथ यात्रायां दिग्ज्ञानमुक्तं रोमकेण ॥अग्निराशिर्भवेत्पूर्वा दक्षिणा पृथिवी भवेत् ॥वायुराशिः पश्चिमा च सौम्याशा जलभे स्मृता ॥
Next, knowledge of direction on a journey is told by Romaka. A fire sign is east. An earth sign is south. An air sign is west. In a water sign, the north is said.
Simple meaning: Direction of travel by the sign's element: fire east, earth south, air west, water north.
अत्र यात्रायोगकारकाणां ग्रहणाम्मध्ये यो बलवांस्तदधिष्ठितराशौ गमनं वाच्यम् ॥ बलसाम्ये तन्मध्ये केंद्रस्थग्रहाधिष्ठितराशौ गमनं स्वाच्यम् ॥ तदभावेपि नवमभावराशिदिग्गमनं वाच्यमिति विशेषः ॥
Go toward the sign of the strongest journey planet. If equal, the one in a corner house. If none, toward the 9th house's sign.
चण्डेश्वरः ॥
Strong Mercury or Venus in a luck house from the year lagna: a person at home goes abroad; the other goes home.
सुखे व्योम्नि स्थिते सौम्ये गमनं न तदा भवेत् ॥
A good planet in the 4th or 10th: no journey. A bad planet there, not retrograde: a journey.
