Chapter 17 · Ashtakavarga and its results
सप्तदशोऽध्यायः
विपद्स्त्रक्षतायासदुःखादीनि समादिशेत् ।शुभग्रहादिलग्नान्तमंशयोगसमाब्दके ॥ ९१ ॥पुत्रवित्तसुखादीनि लभते नात्र संशयः । (91½)
tell of danger, weapons, wounds, strain, sorrow and the like. Take the navamshas (one-ninth parts of a sign) from a good planet up to the lagna (rising sign). Add them up. In the year equal to that sum, (91½) he gets sons, money, happiness and the like, with no doubt. (Our text is unclear here: the word for weapons in the first line.)
अष्टमाधिपतेरंशसंख्याभिर्गुणयेत्फलम् ॥ ९२ ॥
Take the points. Multiply them by the number of the 8th lord's navamsha (one-ninth part of a sign).
अष्टमस्थं द्वादशभिर्विभजेच्छिष्टराशिगे ।
These are the points in the 8th. Divide the product by twelve. Say the Sun is in the sign of the remainder, or in its 5th or 9th. Then the person…
प्रादक्षिण्येन राशीनां फलान्येकत्र योजयेत् ॥ ९४ ॥
Join the results of the signs in one place, going round to the right.
