Effects of Jupiter's Ashtakavarga: All about knowledge, religious inclinations of the native and son (progeny) is to be ascertained from the 5th house from Jupiter. If the rekhas in the 5th house from Jupiter are larger in number in the Ashtakavarga, there will be great happiness in respect of progeny. If the dots are larger in number, the happiness in respect of progeny will be meagre. The number of children is equal to the number of rekhas in the 5th house (from Jupiter) provided it is not the rasi of debilitation of Jupiter or his enemy's rasi. In that case the number of children will be very limited. The number of children is also equal to the number of Navamsa in which the lord of the 5th from Jupiter is posited. Multiply the Yoga Pinda of Jupiter by the number of rekhas in the Ashtakavarga and divide the product separately by 27 and 12. The remainders will denote the nakshatra and rasi respectively. The progeny will be in distress during the transit of Saturn through that nakshatra and its trikona nakshatras and of that rasi and its trikona rasis. During that period the knowledge, learning and religious activities of the native will also be adversely affected.
