मन्दर्क्षाशे शशिनि हिबुके मन्ददृष्टेऽब्जगे वा
तद्युक्ते वा तमसि शयनं नीचसंस्थैश्च भूमौ ।
यद्भद्राशिर्ब्रजति हरिजं गर्भमोक्षस्तु तद्वत्

When the Moon is in a Navamsa owned by Saturn or in the 4th bhava from the Lagna or is aspected by Saturn, or occupies a watery sign, or is in conjunction with Saturn, the accouchement is in darkness. The same takes place on the ground when 3 or more planets are in their depression signs. The coming out of the child from the womb is exactly like the emergence of the rising sign from the horizon, i.e. if it is a Sirshodaya sign, the child appears with the head foremost and if a Prishtodaya sign with the legs foremost, and if an Ubhayodaya sign with the hands foremost. If malefic planets be in conjunction with the Moon or occupy the 7th or the 4th bhava therefrom, much distress has to be endured by the mother.
