ABOUT SONS: If Saturn, the Moon and Mercury are together in the 9th from one of the said places (śloka 23), there will be no son at all while the Sun, Jupiter and Rāhu so placed will give a number of sons. The Moon so placed will give a son while a mixture of planets will delay the obtainment of a son. The son caused by the conjunction of the Sun, Jupiter and Rāhu above will be strong, valorous, greatly successful and will destroy enemies. If Mars and Saturn are in the said 9th, there will be no son, or a son will be obtained by adoption or brother's son will come in adoption. In all these cases, odd signs will yield many sons while even sign will cause only a few.

वहीं सूर्य, शुक्र व राहु के एक साथ रहने से पुत्र बहुत प्रतापी, विजयी व शत्रु-संहारक होता है।
