Jataka Tattva · by Mahadeva
Chapter 7 · Mind, Learning and Children: the 5th House
पञ्चमविवेकः
पापो जीवो वा तुर्ये सुते षष्ठे चन्द्रे त्रिंशद्वर्षोर्ध्वे सन्ततिः ।
Say a bad planet or Jupiter is in the 4th or 5th house. Say the Moon is in the 6th house. Then children come after the age of thirty.
पापर्क्षे पापयुते लग्ने सूर्येऽबले युग्मर्क्षे कुजे त्रिंशद्वर्षोर्ध्वेसन्ततिः ।
Say the 1st house is the sign of a bad planet, with bad planets in it. Say the Sun is weak. Say Mars is in an even sign. Then children come after…
कर्के चन्द्रे पापयुतदृष्टे च मन्ददृष्टे सूर्ये षष्टितमेऽब्दे पुत्राप्तिः ।
Say the Moon is in Cancer, joined or aspected by bad planets. Say Saturn aspects the Sun. Then a son is gained in the sixtieth year.
अर्थाङ्गे लग्नपे प्रथमः सुतः ।
Say the 1st lord is in the 2nd house or the 1st. Then the first child is a son.
