As the effects of the twelve houses are judged from the Ascendant and the Moon, effects of the twelve houses and the various planets are judged in the same manner. Therefore the inauspicious places (houses) named as Kanina from the seven planets beginning from the Sun and the Ascendant (total 8) should be marked by dots (bindus) and auspicious places named as Sthan by small vertical lines (rekhas) and on the basis of their assessment should the judgment of the horoscope and predictions be made.

यथा लग्नाच्च चन्द्राच्च ग्रहाणां भावजं फलम्‌ । तथाऽन्येभ्योऽपि सखेटेभ्यो विचिन्त्यं देवविद्भिरैः । । 13 । । जिस प्रकार लग्न, चन्द्र व सूर्य से फल विचार कहा है उसी प्रकार अन्य ग्रहों की राशियों के आधार पर भी फल विचार करना चाहिए ।
