जातकम् १
मिथो रवींदूर्ज्ञार्की वा पश्यतः समगं रविः ।वक्रो वांगविधू ओजे जज्ञौ युग्मौजसंस्थितौ ॥ ५४ ॥
In the full Narada Purana (Purva Bhaga) this is chapter 55, verse 54.
The Sun and the Moon see each other. Or Mercury and Saturn do. Or Mars sees the Sun in an even sign, or the lagna (rising sign) and the Moon in odd signs. Or a pair stands in even and odd signs. (Our text is unclear here: the names of that pair are damaged.)
Simple meaning: These sights and odd-even placements are conditions; the next verse gives the result, a neuter birth.
कुजेक्षितेपुमांशेदुहिता क्लीब जन्मदा ।
Some placements seen by Mars give a neuter birth. Venus and Moon in even signs begin a twin rule.
लग्नेंदुसमगौ युग्मस्थाने वा यमलंकराः ।
The lagna and the Moon in even signs can give twins.
त्रितयं ज्ञांशकाद्युग्मममिश्रैः सममादिशेत् ।
Mercury's sight can give three at one birth. A lagna late in Sagittarius begins a rule for many.
