Take the navamsha (one-ninth part of a sign) the lagna (rising sign) falls in. Say its lord is in the 6th house. Then the infant dies on the day that matches the number of the 6th house's sign.
षष्ठाष्टमगाः सौम्या वक्रगपापदृष्टा मासे शिशुमरणम् ।
Say benefics are in the 6th and 8th houses. Retrograde malefics aspect them. Then the infant dies within a month.
सपापेऽङ्गेशे यूने मासे शिशुमरणम् ।
Say the lord of the lagna (rising sign) is with a malefic in the 7th house. Then the infant dies within a month.
कुजेऽङ्गे जीवेऽन्त्ये शुभे षष्ठे मासे शिशुमरणम् ।
Say Mars is in the lagna (rising sign) and Jupiter is in the 12th house. A benefic is in the 6th. Then the infant dies within a month.
