योगाध्यायः
ग्रहाधीनायोगाःसदसदभिधानाजनिवतांततोयोगाधीनंफलमितिपुराणैःसमुदितम् ॥अतोवक्ष्येयोगान्सकलगणकानंदजनकाञ्छुकास्यादुद्भूतंमतमिहविलोक्येहरुचिरम् ॥ १ ॥
Yogas (planet combinations) depend on the planets. For people at birth, they carry good and bad names. That is why the old texts say results depend on the yogas. So I will now tell the yogas. They give joy to all astrologers. I tell them after looking here at the pleasing view that came from Shuka's mouth.
Simple meaning: Results of a birth depend on planet combinations, so the author tells them, following Shuka's teaching.

The lord of the birth star may be weak and sit in the 5th or 9th house. Then the person tends to be angry. The lord of the birth sign may sit with the 1st lord in the 6th, 8th or 12th house. Then the person tends to be weak. The lords of the 9th, 6th and 8th houses may sit with bad planets in any house. If bad planets also see them, that man may face trust problems in marriage.
Verse 3.1 says yogas are planet combinations that depend on the planets at birth. They carry good and bad names.
Many are told as tendencies. Verse 3.16 says a person tends to love jokes, and Verse 3.11 says a person may have good sense.
Verse 3.33 says those who know the planets should work out the good and bad results and think carefully.
Simple meaning: A weak birth-star lord in the 5th or 9th may bring anger. Some yogas may bring trust problems in marriage.

The lords of the 6th and 8th houses may sit in the 4th house with Mars and the Moon. The old texts then say doubts may rise in the family. The lords of the 9th and 8th houses may sit in any house with bad planets. The same is said then. It is also said if they sit with Rahu, or with Ketu.
Simple meaning: The 6th and 8th lords with Mars and the Moon in the 4th may raise doubts in the family.

The planet joined with these two lords is said to show that person's background. Venus and Jupiter may sit with bad planets in the 7th, 6th or 2nd house.

The lord of the 1st house may sit in the 2nd house with bad planets. Then the person's father may face trust problems in marriage. The lords of the 7th, 6th and 2nd houses may sit in the 2nd house with strong planets. They give the same result. In this way, judge many results for the brother, the wife and the parents. The lords of the parents' houses may sit with the 1st lord in any house. Then doubts may rise in the family. (Our text is unclear here: the words split two ways, so the text here is unclear about the woman's conduct; and 'sva' may mean the 2nd house or the planets' own lords.)
Simple meaning: The 1st lord with bad planets in the 2nd may show trust problems in the father's marriage, or doubts in the family.

Mercury may sit in the 1st house. The Sun and Saturn may sit in the 6th house, seen by bad planets. Or they may sit in one sign, in the same part of it. If good planets do not see them, the person may lose his good sense. The Sun may be the lord of the 6th house and sit in the 4th with bad planets. Or Saturn may sit there so.

Mars in its own sign may look at the 1st house. Then the person tends to be timid. Saturn in the 10th house at a night birth gives the same.

If Mars and Mercury look at each other across the 7th, the person tends to be tall. If Saturn, the Sun and Mars see the Moon, he tends to be cold by nature. If the weak Moon is with Mars, he may do wrong deeds and have a hard nature. Mercury may sit in the 1st house and look at Jupiter in the 7th. The next verse gives the result.

Venus and Mercury may sit in the 7th house, or in the 10th or 8th. Then the person may be unsteady in matters of love. The same holds for Venus and Mars in the 7th or 10th house.

Saturn may sit just ahead of the Moon or Venus. Or the Moon and Venus may sit in the 1st house and see Saturn. Then the person may face a bad name. Saturn may be in the 4th house with the Sun, seen by Venus and the Moon. Then there is a risk of harm to the private part. It is the same if the Sun is eclipsed at birth.

Venus may sit in the sign of a retrograde planet at birth. Then the person tends to give women joy in love. The lord of the 1st house may sit in its own sign, not in the 7th, and look at Venus.

Venus may see the weak Moon. Saturn may see the Moon in its own sign. Bad planets in the 10th or 7th house may see the Moon. The result comes in the next verse. (Our text is unclear here: whether Venus sees the weak Moon or does not see it.)

The eyes may hurt and shed tears. If the Moon and Mars sit in one house, a small mark may show on the eyes. The wise judge this by the planets' strength. The Sun may sit in the 12th, 9th or 5th house with bad planets, or seen by them. Then the person is proud but may have very weak eyes. If Saturn is placed so, he may be ill.

Saturn in the 4th house may see the Moon in a back-first rising sign. If the 1st lord is also in Aries, the person tends to be short. The Moon may be in the 2nd house in a water sign. Or it may be with Saturn. Or the Sun may be in the 4th house. Then the person may have ringworm.

The lord of the 6th house and the Moon may be seen by bad planets and not by good ones. Then the person may have a disease of the spleen. The same holds for the lords of the 7th and 1st houses. If Saturn is in the 4th house, he may lose his sight. He may have spleen trouble if the 1st lord is Saturn and bad planets press it. Then he may lack comfort. If it sits in the 4th house, he may have spleen trouble and little joy. (Our text is unclear here: how the conditions in the second half link, and which house 'sadana' means.)
Simple meaning: The 6th lord or Moon hurt by bad planets may bring spleen trouble. Saturn in the 4th may harm sight.

If bad planets sit in the corner houses, the person may have a defect of the body. The same holds if the Sun and the Moon sit in corner houses. If Saturn sees Venus in the 1st house, he may lack a limb near the hips. Venus may sit in the 4th house. Saturn may be joined with Jupiter somewhere. Or Mars or Mercury may be placed so. Then there may be a defect in the hips, an arm or a foot. (Our text is unclear here: whether the planets in this last part make one yoga or separate ones.)
Simple meaning: Bad planets in the corner houses may bring a defect of the body, hips, arms or feet.

Then there may be pain in the hand. Saturn may be in the 10th house with Venus. Then the person may be weak in manhood. Saturn in the 12th or 6th from Venus gives the same weakness. The Moon in Leo may see Mars in the 7th house. Then the person may be blind in one eye. The Sun in Cancer may do the same, with a good house lord in Aries, Leo, Scorpio or Capricorn. (Our text is unclear here: how the Sun, Cancer and the lord of a good house link in the last line.)
Simple meaning: Saturn with Venus in the 10th, or 12th or 6th from Venus, may weaken manhood. Some yogas harm an eye.

If Venus sits in a sign of Saturn, the person may have a bad body smell. The same holds if the lord of the 6th house is in a sign of Mercury, or in Capricorn. It also holds if Venus is in a corner house with that lord. Venus and Saturn may sit in their own hadda (a part of a sign that a planet rules). The same then holds. If the Moon sits in the 7th or 1st house, the mouth may smell bad.
