Chapter 6 · The Twelve Houses
द्वादशभावविचाराध्यायः
जीर्णताजिके ॥ अत्र विशेषो भगवता गर्गेणोक्तः ॥नीचस्थो रिपुगेहस्थो ग्रहो भावविनाशकृत् ॥उदासीनगृहे मध्यो मित्रस्वक्षेत्रिकोणगः ॥स्वोच्चगश्च ग्रहोवश्यं भाववृद्धिकरः स्मृत इति ॥
In the Jirna Tajika: here a special point was told by the blessed Garga. A planet in its nicha (low point), or in an enemy's house, destroys the house. A planet in a neutral's house gives a middle result. A planet in a friend's sign, its own sign, or a trikona (luck house) surely increases the house. So does a planet in its own uchcha (high point).
Simple meaning: Planet in its low point or an enemy's sign harms the house. In a friend's or own sign, or high point, it helps the house.
षष्ठाष्टव्ययभावेषु विचारं वैपरीत्यमाह सत्याचार्य्यः ॥
Houses 6, 8 and 12: good planets reduce the house's trouble, and bad planets increase it. This is the reverse of other houses.
अयमर्थः ॥ अष्टमस्थाः सौम्यां मृत्युहानिं कुर्वंति ॥ पापा मृत्युवृद्धिं कुर्वंति ॥ द्वादशे सौम्या व्ययहानिं क्रूरा व्ययवृद्धिं षष्ठभावस्थाः सौम्याः शत्रुहानिं क्रूराः शत्रुवृद्धिं कुर्वंतीति सत्याचार्यमतम्॥
Good planets in the 8th, 12th and 6th reduce harm, loss and enemies. Bad planets increase them. This is Satyacharya's view.
षष्ठे सौम्याः शत्रुवृद्धिं क्रूराःशत्रुहानिं कुर्वंतीति ताजिककर्तृमतम् ॥ तदग्रे ग्रहाणां भावफले प्रकटीभविष्यति॥
Tajika authors' view: good planets in the 6th increase enemies, bad planets reduce them. This is explained later.
