Jataka Tattva · by Mahadeva
Chapter 7 · Mind, Learning and Children: the 5th House
पञ्चमविवेकः
क्रूरषष्ठ्यंशे पुत्रपे पापदृष्टयुते पुत्रार्तिः ।
Say the lord of the 5th is in a cruel shashtyamsha (one-sixtieth part of a sign). Say malefics join or aspect it. Then the person will suffer grief over sons.
ज्ञाङ्गपौ लग्नेतरकेन्द्रगौ वंशविच्छेदः ।
Say Mercury and the lord of the 1st are in corner houses other than the 1st. These are the 4th, 7th and 10th. Then the family line will end.
पापग्रहा व्ययसुताष्टमगा वंशविच्छेदः ।
Say malefic planets are in the 12th, 5th and 8th houses. Then the family line will end.
चन्द्रेज्यौ लग्ने द्यूने मन्दे वा भौमे वंशविच्छेदः ।
Say the Moon and Jupiter are in the 1st house. Say Saturn or Mars is in the 7th. Then the family line will end.
