Jataka Tattva · Chapter 3
प्रकीर्णतत्त्वम् : अङ्गविचारः (प्रथमविवेकः)
These are the first house results in Jataka Tattva. The first house is the rising sign, and it stands for the body.
The chapter has 346 sutras. It reads the build, looks, nature and habits of a person. It also covers skills, eating, speech and the eyes. Its rules weigh the lord of the house, the planets in it and the looks on it.
