विवाहप्रकरणम्
प्रोक्तं प्राग्गृहमोजभेऽर्कशशिनोर्होरे समेऽब्जार्कयोर्दृक्केट् प्राक्सुतधर्मपो नवलवः प्रोक्तः स्वतोऽर्कांशकः । शुक्रज्ञेज्ययमासृजां शरमुनीभार्थेषवो युग्मभे त्रिंशांशा विषमे त एव गदिता व्यस्ताश्च षड्वर्गकाः ॥ ३५ ॥
The sign is as said before. In an odd sign, the hora (half of a sign) goes to the Sun, then the Moon. In an even sign, to the Moon, then the Sun. The drekkana (one-third part of a sign) lords are the lords of the sign, the 5th and the 9th. The navamsha (one-ninth part of a sign) was told before. The dvadashamsha (one-twelfth part of a sign) counts from the sign itself. In an even sign, the trimshamsha (one-thirtieth of a sign) spans are: Venus 5, Mercury 7, Jupiter 8, Saturn 5, Mars 5 degrees. In an odd sign, they are the same, reversed. These are the shadvarga (six divisions of a sign).
Simple meaning: How to find the six divisions of a sign: half, third, ninth, twelfth and thirtieth parts.
संक्रांत्यंतरहोहृताद्दिनगणादाप्तं भपूर्वो रविर्मेषाद्यातभयुग्युतोऽयनलवै रात्रौ सषड्भः स च । तद्भोग्यांशनिजोदयाहतिखरामाप्तं तथा लग्नतो भुक्तांशाकलितेन युग्विवरगैः कालः स्फुटो भोदयैः ॥ ३६ ॥
How to find the Sun's place and the time for a wanted lagna from the rising times of signs.
लग्नार्कौ यदि चैकभेंऽशविवरात्स्वीयोदयघ्नाद्वियत्त्र्याप्तिः काल इनात्तनुर्यदि तनुः सूर्योदयात्प्रागसौ । कुंडेऽभःपरिपूरिते सुघटिकामर्धोदयास्ते न्यसेत्स्तुत्वाऽग्नित्रयवायुगा न शुभदा पूर्णाग्निपंचस्वथ ॥ ३७ ॥
Find the time from the gap between lagna and Sun, and keep time with a water bowl.
गोधूलं पदजादिके शुभकरं पंचांगशुद्धौ रवेरर्धास्तात्परपूर्वतोऽर्धघटिकं तत्रेंदुमष्टारिगम् । सोग्रांगं कुजमष्टमं गुरुयमाहः पातमर्कक्रमं जह्याद्विप्रमुखेऽतिसंकट इदं सद्यौवनाढ्ये क्वचित् ॥ ३८ ॥
Dusk wedding time is good for some castes; avoid certain placements; others use it only in need.
