जातकम् १
क्षीणेऽब्जे व्ययगे पापैर्लग्नाष्टस्थैः शुभा न चेत् ।केंद्रेषु वाब्जोसंयुक्तः स्मरांत्यमृतिलग्नगः ॥ १०४ ॥
In the full Narada Purana (Purva Bhaga) this is chapter 55, verse 104.
The waning Moon is in the 12th. Bad planets are in the 1st and 8th, and no good planets are in the corner houses. Or the Moon, joined with a bad planet, is in the 7th, 12th, 8th or lagna (rising sign).
Simple meaning: A weak Moon with bad planets in these places is said to put early life at risk.
केंद्राद्या हस्त सन्खेटैरदृष्टो मृत्युदस्तथा ।
A Moon in the 6th or 8th seen by bad planets is said to put a newborn's life at early risk.
समाष्टके मिश्रखेटैर्दृष्टेर्दृष्टे मृतिः शिशोः ।
A good planet's look delays the risk to life to eight years, a mixed look to four.
भूद्यूननिधने वाब्जे लग्नेऽप्येवं शिशोर्मृतिः ।
A hemmed-in Moon in some places is said to put a child's life at risk, sometimes the mother's too.
