Chapter 3 · Body, Nature, Health: the 1st House
प्रकीर्णतत्त्वम् : अङ्गविचारः (प्रथमविवेकः)
जलर्क्षेऽङ्गे शुभैर्युते वा दृष्टे देहपुष्टिः ।
Say the 1st house is a watery sign. Good planets join or aspect it. Then the body is well built.
मिथुनांशे देहपुष्टिः ।
Say [the lagna (rising sign)] falls in a Gemini navamsha (one-ninth part of a sign). Then the body is well built.
लग्नगे सबले सत्खचरे देहपुष्टिः ।
Say a strong good planet is in the lagna (rising sign). Then the body is well built.
लग्नादिराशयः शिरःप्रभृति कालाङ्गेषु कल्प्याः ।
Take the signs from the lagna (rising sign) onward as the limbs of the body of time. The first is the head, and so on.
