दशमविवेकः
उच्चगाः खेटाः नीचांशगाः व्यर्था राजयोगाः ।
Say planets are in their exalted signs but in the navamsha (one-ninth part of a sign) of debilitation. Then the royal combinations come to nothing.
उच्चेऽर्के नीचांशे राजपुत्रोऽपि नीचतां गच्छति ।
Say the Sun is exalted but in a debilitation navamsha (one-ninth part of a sign). Then even a king's son will come down to a low rank.
परमनीचगेऽर्के व्यर्था राजयोगाः ।
Say the Sun is at its deepest debilitation point. Then the royal combinations come to nothing.
नीचगे शुक्रे सिंहांशे वा स्वांशे व्यर्था राजयोगाः ।
Say Venus is debilitated. Say it is in a Leo navamsha (one-ninth part of a sign) or in its own navamsha. Then the royal combinations come to nothing.
