जातकम् २
मंदो वा जन्मपं नष्टं तथा च मंदकागणे ।भौमार्कांशे सौरदृष्टे चंद्रे वा दीक्षितो भवेत् ॥ २१३ ॥
In the full Narada Purana (Purva Bhaga) this is chapter 55, verse 213.
Or Saturn looks at a weak lord of the birth sign. Or the Moon is in Saturn's part. Or the Moon is in a navamsha (one-ninth part of a sign) of Mars or the Sun. Saturn looks at it. Then he takes initiation. (Our text is unclear here: the word for Saturn's part, and whether 'the Sun' means Saturn.)
Simple meaning: The Moon in a Mars navamsha, looked at by Saturn, can make the person take initiation.
सुरूपो भूषितोऽश्विन्यां दक्षः सत्यवचा यमे ।
Ashvini gives good looks, Bharani truth, and Krittika a big eater with a steady mind.
ब्राह्मे धनीभृगे भोगी रौद्रे हिंस्रः शठोऽघकृत् ।
Rohini gives wealth, Mrigashira comfort, Ardra a harsh streak, Punarvasu a calm one and Pushya a happy poet.
धूर्तः शठः कृतघ्नोऽहौ पापः सर्वाशनो भवेत् ।
Ashlesha may give a clever, guarded person with simple tastes; Magha a rich, devout one; Purva Phalguni a giving one.
