मिश्रप्रकरणम्
द्व्यादित्यद्विवसुस्थिराश्विभमृदुस्वात्यर्कभैर्ज्ञत्रयार्काराह्नीज्यभृगूदये द्विकमदेष्विंदौ क्रियाश्वी हिता । तत्राप्यर्कभतः क्रमात्तिथिमितैः पश्चात्रिभिः साभिजिच्छस्ता या नृसमा तदुक्तभमुखैः कार्या परैभिर्बुधैः ॥ ९ ॥
Work with horses is good under Punarvasu and Pushya, and Dhanishtha and Shatabhisha. The fixed stars, Ashvini, the soft stars, Svati and Hasta are good too. Use Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, Sunday or Tuesday. Jupiter or Venus should be rising. The Moon should be in the 2nd, the 1st or the 7th house. Count the stars from the Sun's star in order, with Abhijit counted. Leave the first 3. The next 15 stars are good. Rites for horses that match rites for people follow the stars given for those rites. So other wise men say. (Our text is unclear here: the Moon's houses and the star count may be meant otherwise.)
Simple meaning: Do horse work under these stars and days, with the Moon well placed and Jupiter or Venus rising.

Avoid oil baths on these days unless there is a festival or a lucky rite.

Some tithis are bad for an amla bath; some days and stars are bad for a woman's oil bath.

Start medicine on good stars in the bright half; let blood or treat wounds on Sunday or Tuesday.
