दशानयनाधिकाराध्यायः
लग्नाद्व्ययाष्टारिगृहंविहाय दैत्याधिपश्शेषगृहेर्द्धदः स्यात् ॥निंद्योऽपि मध्यश्शुभकृन्निरुक्तस्संपूर्णवीर्योतिशुभप्रदस्स्यात् ॥
Leave out the 12th, 8th and 6th houses from the lagna (rising sign). In the other houses, Venus gives half the result, even when blameworthy. At middle strength it is called good. At full strength it gives very good results.
Simple meaning: Venus's period by house from the lagna: outside the 6th, 8th and 12th, even a blameworthy Venus gives half. Middle strength is good, full strength very good.
वामनः ॥
Venus's period at full strength (Vamana): royal wealth, a wife, sons, friends and comforts.
दण्डेशस्सर्वशास्त्रज्ञस्स्वपक्षाञ्च महद्धनम् ॥
Venus's period at middle strength (Vamana): a high post, learning and great wealth.
भ्रमणन्निष्फला सेवा स्त्रीपक्षादसुखं भवेत् ॥
Venus's period at low strength (Vamana): wandering, service without reward, unhappiness from the wife's side.
