पापयोर्मध्ये कुजर्क्षगे चन्द्रे शस्त्रेणाग्निना वा मृत्युः ।
Say the Moon is in a sign of Mars. It is between two bad planets. Then death comes from a weapon or from fire.
कन्यगे चन्द्रे पापयोर्मध्ये रक्तोत्थशोषान्मृत्युः ।
Say the Moon is in Virgo between two bad planets. Then death may come from wasting caused by the blood.
सौरर्क्षे चन्द्रे पापयोर्मध्ये ज्वराग्निपातैर्मृत्युः ।
