Chapter 10 · Transits of the Planets
गोचरप्रकरणम्
स्वर्क्षाच्चंद्रखलास्त्रिखारिषु शुभाः सप्ताद्यगोऽब्जः पुनश्चापुत्राद्व्ययधर्ममृत्युषु कविः स्वास्तत्रिकोणे गुरुः । सौम्यो व्यंत्यसमेऽखिला भवगताः शुक्ले नवेषु द्विगश्चंद्रोऽथो निजभाद्द्युभं नवहृतं त्र्यद्रीषुशेषं न सत् ॥ १ ॥
Count from your own birth sign. The Moon and the bad planets are good in the 3rd, 10th and 6th. The Moon is also good in the 7th and the 1st. Venus is good in the 1st to the 5th, and in the 12th, 9th and 8th. Jupiter is good in the 2nd, 7th, 5th and 9th. Mercury is good in the even houses, but not the 12th. All planets are good in the 11th. In the bright half, the Moon is also good in the 9th, 5th and 2nd. Next, count from your birth nakshatra (star) to the day's star. Divide by 9. A remainder of 3, 7 or 5 is not good.
Simple meaning: The planets are good in certain houses from your birth Moon sign; some star counts are bad.
षष्ठांत्ये खजले सुतायभवने त्र्यंके रवेः स्यान्मिथस्त्र्यंके जन्मसुते खके मृतिभवे द्व्यस्ते षडंत्ये विधोः । त्र्यर्के लाभसुते सपत्नतपसोर्व्यर्काशुभानां व्यधोष्टाद्ये पुत्रधनेष्टखे कसहजेर्यंके भवांत्ये विदः ॥ २ ॥
A good transit house is blocked when another planet sits in its paired house; the pairs are listed for each planet.
द्व्यस्तेष्टादिमयोः खके नवसुते त्रीशेष्टपुत्रे त्रिकाद्येर्यंत्येकभवे भृगोर्ज्ञशशिनोः शन्यर्कयोर्नो व्यधः । विद्धो व्यस्तफलो भवेद्दिविचरो हेमाद्रिविंध्यांतरे खेटर्क्षाद्व्यधखेचरं विगणयान्यत्रोभयं जन्मभात् ॥ ३ ॥
Venus has its own blocking pairs. Mercury-Moon and Saturn-Sun never block. A blocked planet gives the opposite result.
