The Venerable sage said — O Maitreya! Now I will describe to you the circumstances in which the births are inauspicious in spite of the Ascendant and the planets being well disposed. Although the Ascendant may be well disposed, births will be inauspicious if they take place on Amavasya (the last day of the dark half of the month), on Chaturdasi (14th tithi) Krishna Paksha (dark half of the month), in Bhadra Karana, in the nakshatra of the brother, in the nakshatras of father and mother, at the time of entry of the Sun in a sign (संक्रान्ति), the time of Pata (पात), at the time of solar and lunar eclipses, at the time of Vyatipata (व्यतीपात), in gandantas of all the three kinds, in yamaghant (यमघण्ट), Tithikshaya (तिथिक्षय), in Dagdha yoga etc. The birth of a son after three daughters and birth of a daughter after three sons and the birth of a freak are inauspicious. But there are remedial measures for obtaining relief from the evil effects of such births which are being described in the foregoing chapters.
