गर्भरक्षा-पयोहीनत्व — ज्योतिःशास्त्रम्
This Garbharaksha astrology chapter covers care of a pregnancy and a lack of breast milk. It names the planet of each month.
Classical view, not medical advice.
Saturn in the 4th is the chart rule for a lack of milk.
The English below is our translation from the Sanskrit.
Next, according to jyotisha (astrology), the text tells how to protect pregnant women until the time of birth.
Garbharaksha (protecting a pregnancy) - the stars
कलिलघनावयवास्थित्वग्रोमस्मृतिसमुद्भवाः क्रमशः ।मासेषु शुक्रकुजजीवसूर्यचन्द्रार्किसौम्यानाम् ।
The months are ruled in order by Venus, Mars, Jupiter, the Sun, the Moon, Saturn and Mercury. In them these arise one by one: the first fluid; the firm mass; the limbs; the bones; the skin; the hair; and memory.
Garbharaksha (protecting a pregnancy) - the stars
अशनोद्वेगप्रसवाः परतो लग्नेशचंद्रसूर्याणाम् ।कलुषैः पीडा पतनं निपीडितैर्निर्मलैः पुष्टिः ॥
The next months are ruled by the lord of the lagna (rising sign), the Moon and the Sun. In them come taking food, restlessness and birth. If these planets are stained by bad planets, there is pain. If they are hard pressed, the baby may be lost. If they are clean, the baby thrives.
Garbharaksha (protecting a pregnancy) - the stars
तत्तन्माससंबंधिकलुषनिपीडितग्रहजनितगर्भबाधोपशांतये माससंख्याधिपग्रहाणां जपहोमपूजादिकं कारयेत् तेनगर्भवेदनोपशाम्यति ।
A planet may be stained or hard pressed in a given month. This troubles the baby. To ease it, one should have japa (repeating a mantra) done. One should also have homa (fire offering) and puja (worship) done. These are for the planet that rules that month. By this, the pain of the pregnancy eases.
Payohinatva (lack of breast milk) - the stars
अथ स्त्रीणां स्तनक्षीराभावे विवाहकाले चतुर्थस्थानस्थितशनिजनितपयोहीनत्वदोषोपशांतये प्रागुक्तं शनिविधानं पूजादिकं कुर्यात् ।
Next, a woman may have no breast milk. If Saturn stood in the 4th house at the time of marriage, it causes the lack of milk. To ease this dosha (fault), one should do the Saturn rite and the puja (worship) told before.
Unit 93.2 says the months are ruled in order by Venus, Mars, Jupiter, the Sun, the Moon, Saturn and Mercury.
