Ch. 21. Effects of 10th House 
1. I now explain the effects of 10th House. Listen to these, o Maitreya, in the words of Brahma, Garga and others. 
2. Paternal Happiness. If 10ths Lord is strong and in exaltation, or in its own Rāśi/Navāmśa, the native will derive extreme paternal happiness, will enjoy fame and will perform good deeds. 3. If 10ths Lord is devoid of strength, the native will face obstructions in his work. If Rahu is in an angle, or in a trine, he will perform religious sacrifices, like Jyotishyatoma. 
4. If 10ths Lord is with a benefic, or be in an auspicious House, one will always gain through royal patronage and in business. In a contrary situation, only opposite results will come to pass. 
5. Should 10th and 11th House be both occupied by malefics, the native will indulge only in bad deeds and will defile his own men. 
6. If the Lord of 10th House is relegated to 8th House along with Rahu, the native will hate others; be a great fool and will do bad deeds. 
7. If Saturn, Mars and 10ths Lord are in 7th, as 7ths Lord is with a malefic, the native will be fond of carnal pleasures and of filling his belly. 
8-10 Should 10ths Lord be in exaltation and be in the company of Jupiter, as 9ths Lord is in 10th the native will be endowed with honour, wealth and valor. One will lead a happy life, if 11ths Lord is in 10th and 10ths Lord is in Lagna, or, if the Lord of 10th House is conjunct with the Lord of 11th House in an angle. Should 10ths Lord in strength be in Pisces along Jupiter, the native will doubtless obtain robes, ornaments and happiness. 
11. Should Rahu, Sun, Saturn and Mars be in 11th House, the native will incur cessation of his duties. 
12. One will be learned and wealthy, if Jupiter is in Pisces along with Venus, while Lagnas Lord is strong and Moon is in exaltation. 
13. Should 10ths Lord be in 11th, while 11ths Lord is in 1st House and Venus is in 10th, the native will be endowed with precious stones. 
14. If the 10ths Lord is exalted in an angle, or a trine and is conjunct with Jupiter, or receives a Aspect from Jupiter, one will be endowed with deeds. 
15. Should 10ths Lord be in Lagna along with Lagnas Lord, as Moon is in an angle, or in a trine, the native will be interested in good deeds. 
16. If Saturn is in 10th House along with a debilitated Planet, while 10th House in the Navāmśa Kundali is occupied by a malefic, the native will be bereft of acts. 
17. One will indulge in bad acts, if 10ths Lord is in 8th House, while 8ths Lord is in 10th House with a malefic. 
18. Obstructions to the natives acts will crop up, if 10ths Lord is in fall, as both 10th House and the 10th from 10th House have malefic occupations. 
19-21. Combinations for Fame. One will be endowed with fame, if Moon is in 10th House, while 10ths Lord is in a trine from 10th House and Lagnas Lord is in Lagnas angle. Similar effects will come to pass, if 11ths Lord is in 10th House, while 10ths Lord is strong and gives a Aspect to Jupiter. Fame will come to the native, if 10ths Lord is in 9th House, as Lagnas Lord is in 10th House and Moon is in 5th House. 
22. O excellent of the Brahmins, thus have been told about the effects of 10th House in a brief manner. Other related effects be guessed by you based on the relationship of the Lords of Lagna and of 10th House. 
Ch. 22. Effects of 11th House 
1. O excellent of the Brahmins, I now explain effects relating to 11th House, the auspiciousness of which House will make one happy at all times. 
2. Should 11ths Lord be in 11th itself, or be in an angle, or in a trine from Lagna, there will be many gains. Similarly, if 11ths Lord is exalted, though in combustion there will be many gains. 
3. If 11ths Lord is in 2nd House, while 2nds Lord is in an angle along with Jupiter, the gains will be great. 
4. If 11ths Lord is in 3rd House, while 11th House is occupied by a benefic, the native will gain 2000 Nishkas in his 36th year. 
5. If 11ths Lord is conjunct with a benefic in an angle, or in a trine, the native will acquire 500 Nishkas in his 40th year. 
6. The native will own 6000 Nishkas, if 11th House is occupied by Jupiter, while 2nd House and 9th House are, respectively, taken over by Moon and Venus by position. 
7. Should Jupiter, Mercury and Moon be in the 11th from 11th, the native will be endowed with wealth, grains, fortunes, diamonds, ornaments etc. 
8. One will gain 1000 Nishkas in his 33rd year, if 11ths Lord is in Lagna and Lagnas Lord is in 11th House.

10. If 11ths Lord is in 3rd House, as 3rds Lord is in 11th House, one will gain wealth through co-borns and will be endowed with excellent ornaments. 
11. There will be no gains in spite of numerous efforts, if 11ths Lord is in fall, in combustion, or be in 6th, 8th, or 12th House with a malefic. 
Ch. 23. Effects of 12th House 

1-4. O Brahmin, now I tell you about the effects of 12th House. There will be expenses on good accounts, if 12ths Lord is with a benefic, or in his own House, or exalted, or, if a benefic occupies 12th. One will own beautiful houses and beds and be endowed with superior scented articles and pleasures, if Moon happens to be 12ths Lord and be exalted, or be in its own Rāśi and/or Navāmśa, or in 11th/9th/5th House in Rāśi/Navāmśa. The said native will live with rich clothes and ornaments, be learned and Lordly. 5-6. And, if 12ths Lord is in 6th, or 8th House, or be in enemy Navāmśa, in debilitation Navāmśa, or in 8th House in Navāmśa, one will be devoid of happiness from wife, be troubled by expenses and deprived of general happiness. If he be in an angle, or trine, the native will beget a spouse. 
7. Just as these effects are derived from 1st House in regard to the native, similar deductions be made about co-borns etc. from 3rd and other Houses. 
8. Planets placed in the visible half of the zodiac will give explicit results, while the ones in the invisible half will confer secret results. 
9. If Rahu is in 12th along with Mars, Saturn and Sun, the native will go to hell. Similar effect will occur, if 12ths Lord is with Sun. 
10. If there is a benefic in 12th, while its Lord is exalted, or is conjunct with, or receives a Aspect from a benefic, one will attain final emancipation. 
11. One will wander from country to country, if 12ths Lord and 12th House are with malefics and 12ths Lord gives a Aspect to, or receives a Aspect from malefics. 
12. One will move in his own country, if 12ths Lord and 12th House are with benefics and 12ths Lord gives a Aspect to, or receives a Aspect from benefics. 
13. Earnings will be through sinful measures, if 12th is occupied by Saturn, or Marsetc. and is not receiving a Aspect from a benefic. 
14. If Lagnas Lord is in 12th, while 12ths Lord is in Lagna with Venus, expenses will be on religious grounds.

In the case of a Planet, owning two Houses, the results are to be deducted based on its two lordships. If contrary results are thus indicated, the results will be nullified, while results of v6thed nature will come to pass. The Planet will yield full, half, or a quarter of the effects according to its strength being full, medium and negligible, respectively. Thus I have told you about the effects, due to House Lords in various Houses.

Ch. 26. Evaluation of Aspects of Planets 

1. O Glorious, it is said, that Aspects (of Planets) and their strengths are to be known in deciding the effects. How many kinds are these? Please clarify doubts. 

2-5. Aspects of the Planets. O Brahmin, I have earlier stated Aspects, based on Rāśis. The other kind is between Planets, which I detail below. 3rd and 10th, 5th and 9th, 4th and 8th and lastly 7th. On these places the Aspects increase gradually in slabs of quarters, i.e ｼ, , ｾ and full. The effects will also be proportionate. All Planets give a Aspect to the 7th fully. Saturn, Jupiter and Marshave special Aspects, respectively, on the 3rd and the 10th, the 5th and the 9th and the 4th and the 8th. The ancient preceptors have explained these, which ordinary. By subtle mathematical calculations these Aspects will have to be clearly understood, as under.

6-8. Evaluation of the Aspects of the Planets. Deduct the longitude of the Planet (or House), that receives a Aspect, from that of the Planet, which gives the Aspect. If the sum exceeds six Rāśis, deduct the sum again from 10 Rāśis. Convert the latter sum into degrees and divide by two. The resultant product is Aspect Kona (or aspectual angle). If the difference is in excess of 5 Rāśis, ignore the Rāśis and multiply the degrees etc. by 2, which is the value of the Aspect. If the difference is in excess of 4 Rāśis, deduct it from 5 Rāśis, and the resultant degees etc. become the Aspect value. If the difference is in excess of 3 Rāśis, deduct it from 4 Rāśis and (increase 30 by) halve the product to get the Aspect value. If the difference is above 2 Rāśis, ignore the Rāśis and add 15 to the degrees etc. to get the Aspect value. If it is in excess of one Rāśi, ignore the Rāśis and divide the degrees by 2 to get the Aspect value. 

9-10. Special consideration for Saturn’s Aspects. O Brahmin, if Saturn is the Planet, that gives a Aspect, find out the difference between him and the Planet, that receives the Aspect; if the sum is above 1 Rāśi, multiply the degrees etc. by 2 to get the Aspect value. If the sum is above nine Rāśis, the degrees to elapse be doubled to get the Aspect value. If the sum is above 2 Rāśis, the degrees etc. be halved and deducted from 60. If the sum exceeds 8 Rāśis, add to the degrees etc. a figure of 30 to get the Aspect value. In other cases, the sums be processed, as explained earlier.

11. Special consideration for Mars’s Aspects. Deduct the longitude of Marsfrom that of the Planet, that receives the Aspect. If the sum is 3 Rāśis & c, or 7 Rāśis & c, the degrees etc. be reduced from 60. If it is above 2 Rāśis, the degrees etc. be increased by half of it and superadd 15. If the sum is 6 Rāśis, one Rup is the value.

12. Special consideration for Jupiter’s Aspects. Deduct the longitude of Jupiter from that of the Planet, that receives the Aspect from Jupiter. If the resultant sum is 3 Rāśis & c, or 7 Rāśis & c, halve the degrees etc. and increase it by 15. It the sum is 4 Rāśis & c, or 8 Rāśis & c, the degrees etc. be subtracted from 60. This will be the Aspect value. The sum, being in conformity with others than these, be treated, as stated earlier.

Ch. 27. Evaluation Of Strengths 
Shad Bala consists of the following: Sthan Bala (positional), Dig Bala (directional), Kaal Bala (Temporal), inclusive of Ayan Bala (equinoctial), Chesht Bala (motional), Naisargika Bala (natural), Drik Bala (aspectual). These strengths are computed for the seven Planets from Sun to Saturn. The nodes are not considered. 

Sthan Bala comprises of the following considerations: Uchch Bala (exaltation), Sapt Vargaaj Bala (strength accruing out of positions in Rāśi, Hora, Dreshkan, Saptāńś, Navāmśa, Dvadashāńś and Trimshāńś), OjhayugmaRāśiāńś Bala (acquired by placement in odd, or even Rāśi and in odd, or even Navāmśa), Kendradi Bala (due to placement in Kon, or Panaphara, or Apoklima House), Dreshkan Bala (due to placement in first, second, or third decanate of a Rāśi). 

Kaal Bala comprises of the following subdivisions: Nathonnata Bala (diurnal and nocturnal), Paksh Bala (fortnight), Tribhag Bala (due to day/night being made in 3 parts), Varsh, Maas, Dina and Hora Bala (Varsh - astrological year, Maas - month, Dina - weekday and Hora - planetary hour), Ayan Bala (equinoctial), Yudhdh Bala (due to partaking in war between Planets). 

1-1. Sthan Bala (up to Sloka 6). Firstly Uchch Bala. Now about the strengths by classes positional, temporal etc. Deduct from the longitude of the Planet its (deep) debilitation point. If the sum is less than 6 Rāśis, consider it, as it is; if it exceeds 6 Rāśis, deduct the same from 12 Rāśis. The sum so got be converted into degrees etc. and divided by 3, which is the Planets Uchch Bala in Virupas. 
2-4. Sapt Vargaaj Bala. If a Planet is in its Moolatrikona Rāśi, it gets 45 Virupas, in Svasth Rāśi 30 Virupas, in Pramudit Rāśi 20 Virupas, in Shant Rāśi 15 Virupas, in Din Rāśi 10 Virupas, in Dukhita Rāśi 4 Virupas and in Khal Rāśi 2 Virupas. Similarly these values occur for the other 6 divisional occupations, viz. Hora, Dreshkan, Saptāńś, Navāmśa, Dvadashāńś and Trimshāńś. When all these are added together the Planets Sapt Vargaaj Bala emerges. 
4. OjhayugmaRāśiāńś Bala. Each of Venus and Moon in even Rāśis and others in odd Rāśis acquire a quarter of Rupa. These are applicable to such Navāmśaas also. 
5. Kendradi Bala. A Planet in a Kon gets full strength, while one in Panaphara House gets half and the one in Apoklima House gets a quarter, as Kendradi Bala. 
6. Dreshkan Bala. Male, female and hermaphrodite Planets, respectively, get a quarter Rupa according to placements in the first, second and third decanates. 

7-7. Dig Bala. Deduct 4th House (Nadir) from the longitudes of Sun and Mars, 7th House from that of Jupiter and Mercury, 10th House from that of Venus and Moon and lastly Lagna from that of Saturn. If the sum is above 180 degrees, deduct the sum from 360. The sum arrived in either way be divided by 3, which will be Dig Bala of the Planet. 
8-9. Kaala Bala (up to Sloka 17). Firstly Nathonnata Bala. Find out the difference between midnight and the apparent birth time, which is called Unnata. Deduct Unnata from 30 Ghatis to obtain Nata. Double the Nata in Ghatis, which will indicate identical Nata Bala for Moon, Mars and Saturn. Deduct the Nata from 60 to know the Unnata Bala of Sun, Jupiter and Venus. Mercury, irrespective of day and night, gets full Nathonnata Bala. 

10-11. Paksh Bala. Deduct from Moon’s longitude that of Sun. If the sum exceeds 6 Rāśis, deduct the same from 12. The product so obtained be converted into degrees etc. and divided by 3, which will indicate the Paksh Bala of each of the benefic Planets. The Paksh Bala of benefic should be deducted from 60, which will go to each malefic, as Paksh Bala. 12. Tribagh Bala. One Rupa is obtained by Mercury in the first 1/3 part of day time, by Sun in the second 1/3 part of the day and by Saturn in the last 1/3 part of the day. Similarly Moon, Venus and Mars get full Bala in the first, second and last 1/3 parts of the night. Jupiter gets this Bala at all times. 

13. Varsh-Maas-Dina-Hora Bala. 15, 30, 45 and 60 Virupas are in order given to Varsh Lord, Maas Lord, Dina Lord and Hora Lord. Naisargika Bala has already been explained. 
The Varsh Lord is the Lord of the day, on which the astrological year of birth starts. To calculate this we first need the number of days, past from the beginning of Creation, the Ahargan. According to late Rev. Ebenezer Burgess, who translated Sun Sid2ndta in English, as on January 1, 1860, the number of days, past from the beginning of Creation are 714,404,108,573. Divide the number of days, past from the day of Creation till the day of birth, by 60. Reject remainder and multiply the quotient by 3. Increase the post-multiplied product by 1 and divide by 7. The remainder will indicate the week day, on which the astrological year, giving birth to the native, opened. Remainder 1 indicates Sunday, 2 Monday and so on. 

Maasa Lord. Divide the same Ahargan by 30 and the quotient indicates months, passed from Creation to birth. The completed months be multiplied by 2 and increased by 1. The latter sum should be divided by 7 and the remainder indicates, on which day the birth month began. Continuing with the same case, we divide 65295 by 30. Quotient is 2176. This sum multiplied by 2 and increased by 1 denotes 4353. Dividing 4353 by 7, we get a remainder of 6, denoting Friday. That is, the month of birth began on Friday and the Maas Bala goes to Venus, the Lord of Friday. 

Dina Lord. Though the week day of birth can be known from ephemeris, or perpetual calendars, we better adopt the method prescribed, which will confirm, if the Ahargan followed is correct. The number of days, as arrived above, indicating Ahargan, be divided by 7 and the remainder will indicate the week day of birth. 

Hora Bala. Hora means planetary hour. Each day from sunrise to sunrise is divided into 24 equal parts of one hour. These Horas are ruled by the 7 Planets from Sun to Saturn. The first Hora of the day is ruled by the Lord of the week day. The 2nd one is ruled by the Lord of the 6th week day, counted from the first ruler. The 3rd Hora is ruled by the Lord of the 6th week day, counted from the 2nd Hora Lord. Similarly it proceeds in the same manner, till the first Hora of the next day is taken over by the Lord of that day himself. Whichever Planet rules the birth Hora, gets the Hora Bala. Horas are to be calculated for mean local time and not standard time of births. 

14. Naisargika Bala. Divide one Rupa by 7 and multiply the resultant product by 1 to 7 separately, which will indicate the Naisargika Bala, due to Saturn, Mars, Mercury, Jupiter, Venus, Moon and Sun, respectively. 

15-17. Ayan Bala. 45, 33 and 12 are the Khandas for calculating Ayan Bala. Add Ayanāńś to the Planet and find out the Bhuja (distance from the nearest equinox). Add the figure, corresponding to the Rāśi (of the Bhuja) to the Bhuja. The degrees etc. of the Bhuja should be multiplied by the figure, corresponding to the highest of the left out Khandas and divided by 30. Add the resultant product to the sum, obtained earlier. Convert this to Rāśi, degrees, minutes and seconds. If Moon and Saturn are in Libra, or ahead, add to this 3 Rāśis and, if in Aries to Virgo, reduce from this 3 Rāśis. Similarly it is reverse for Sun, Mars, Venus and Jupiter. For Mercury 3 Rāśis are always additive. The resultant sum in Rāśi, degrees and minutes be divided by 3 to get the Ayan Bala in Rupas. 

Notes by Santanam. Ayan Bala can be found out on the following simple formula: Ayan Bala = 60*(23-27 + Kranti)/(46-54) = (23-27 ± Kranti)*1.2793. The following points have to be remembered in respect of Krantis. When Moon, or Saturn have southern Kranti, or, when Sun, Mars, Jupiter, or Venus have northern Kranti, take plus. In a contrary situation in respect of these 6 Planets, take minus. As far as Mercury is concerned, it is always plus. Krantis (or declinations) can be ascertained from a standard modern ephemeris. 
Sun’s Ayan Bala is again multiplied by 2 whereas for others the product arrived in Virupas is considered, as it is. 18. Motional Strength for Sun and Moon. Sun’s Chesht Bala will correspond to his Ayan Bala. Moon’s Paksh Bala will itself be her Chesht Bala. 19. Drik Bala. Reduce one fourth of the Aspect Pinda, if a Planet receives malefic Aspects and add a fourth, if it receives a Aspect from a benefic. Super add the entire Aspect of Mercury and Jupiter to get the net strength of a Planet. 

20. War Between Planets (graha yuddha). Should there be a war between the starry Planets, the difference between the Shad Balaas of the two should be added to the victors Shad Bala and deducted from the Shad Bala of the vanquished. 

21-23. Motions of Planets (Mars to Saturn). Eight kinds of motions are attributed to Planets. These are Vakr (retrogression), Anuvakr (entering the previous Rāśi in retrograde motion), Vikala (devoid of motion), Mand (somewhat slower motion than usual), Mandatar (slower than the previous), Sama (somewhat increasing in motion), Char (faster than Sama) and Atichar (entering next Rāśi in accelerated motion). The strengths, allotted due to such 8 motions are 60, 30, 15, 30, 15, 7.5, 45 and 30. 24-25. Motional Strength for Mars etc. Add together the mean and true longitudes of a Planet and divide the one by two. Reduce this sum from the Seeghroch (or apogee) of the Planet. The resultant product will indicate the Cheshta Kendra (or Seeghra Kendra) of the Planet from 12 Rāśis. The Rāśi, degrees and minutes so arrived should be converted into degrees, minutes etc. and divided by 3, which will denote the motional strength of the Planet. Thus there are six sources of strength, called Sthan Bala, Dig Bala, Kaal Bala, Drik Bala, Chesht Bala and Naisargika Bala. 

26-29. House Balaas. Thus I explained about the strengths of the Planets. Deduct 7th House from the House, if the House happens to be in Virgo, Gemini, Libra, Aquarius, or the first half of Sagittarius. If Aries, Taurus, Leo, or first half of Capricorn, or the second half of Sagittarius happen to be the House, deduct 4th House from it. Should the House be in Cancer, or in Scorpio, deduct from it Lagna. Deduct 10th House from the House, happening to fall in Capricorn second half, or Pisces. Convert the product so obtained into degrees etc. and divide by 3 to get House Bala. If the Balaance in the process of deducting Nadir, Meridian, Lagna, or 7th exceeds 6 Rāśis, deduct it again from 12 Rāśis, before converting into degrees and dividing by 3. The product after division should be increased by one fourth, if the House in question receives a benefic Aspect. If the House receives a malefic Aspect, one fourth should be reduced. If Jupiter, or Mercury give a Aspect to a House, add that Planets Drik Bala also. And then superadd the strength, acquired by the Lord of that House. This will be the net House Bala. 

30-31. Special Rules. The Houses, occupied by Jupiter and Mercury will each get an addition of 1 Rupa, while each of the Houses, occupied by Saturn, Mars and Sun, suffer 1 Rupa reduction. 15 Virupas will have to be added to the Houses, falling in Seershodaya Rāśis, if birth happens to be in day time, to the Houses, falling in Dual Rāśis, if birth happens to be in twilight and to the Houses, falling in Prishtodaya Rāśis, if birth be in night time. 

32-33. Shad Bala Requirements. 390, 360, 300, 420, 390, 330 and 300 Virupas are the Shad Bala Pindas, needed for Sun etc. to be considered strong. If the strength exceeds the above-mentioned values, the Planet is deemed to be very strong. If a Planet has the required Shad Bala, it will prove favourable to the native by virtue of its strength. However, Saturn’s extreme strength will give long life as well as miseries. 34-36. Jupiter, Mercury and Sun are strong, if each of their Sthan Bala, Dig Bala, Kaal Bala, Chesht Bala and Ayan Bala are, respectively, 165, 35, 50, 112 and 30 Virupas. The same required for Moon and Venus are 133, 50, 30, 100 and 40. For Mars and Saturn these are 96, 30, 40, 67 and 20. 

37-38. House Effects. O Brahmin, thus the various sources of strengths be gathered together and effects declared. Whatever Yogas, or effects have been stated with respect to a House, will come to pass through the strongest Planet. 
39-40. Eligibility of Issue Fruitful Predictions. O Maitreya, the words of one, who has achieved skill in mathematics, one, who has put in industrious efforts in the branch of grammar, one, who has knowledge of justice, one, who is intelligent, one, who has knowledge of geography, space and time, one, who has conquered his senses, one, who is skilfully logical (in estimation) and one, who is favourable to Jyotishya, will doubtless be truthful. 

Ch. 28. Isht and Kasht Balaas 
1. Now I narrate the benefic and malefic tendencies of the Planets, based on which the Dasha effects can be decided. 
2. Exaltation Rays. Deduct the Planets debilitation point from its actual position. If the sum exceeds 6 Rāśis, deduct from 12 Rāśis. The said sum should then be increased by 1 Rāśi. The degrees etc. be multiplied by 2, which, when considered along with Rāśis, will indicate the Uchch Rasmi of the Planet. 
3-4. Chesht Rasmi. Chesht Rasmis are to be calculated from Chesht Kendr similar to Uchch Rasmi computations. The Chesht Kendras of Planets from Marsto Saturn have already been explained. Add 3 Rāśis to Sayana Sun (i.e. with Ayanāńś), which will be the Chesht Kendr for Sun. The sidereal longitude of Sun should be deducted from Moon to get Moon’s Chesht Kendr. If the Chesht Kendr (for any Planet) is in excess of 6 Rāśis, deduct it from 12 Rāśis. Add 1 Rāśi and multiply the degrees etc. by 2, which will indicate the Chesht Rasmi of the Planet. 5. Benefic and Malefic Rays. Add the Uchch Rasmis and Chesht Rasmis together and divide by two. The result will be auspicious rays (Subh Rasmis). Deduct from 8 the Subh Rasmis to obtain inauspicious rays (Asubh Rasmis). 
6. Isht and Kasht Tendencies. Reduce 1 from each of Chesht Rasmi and Uchch Rasmi. Then multiply the products by 10 and add together. Half of the sum will represent the Isht Phala (benefic tendency) of the Planet. Reduce Isht Phala from 60 to obtain the Planets Kasht Phala (malefic tendency). 
7-9. Isht and Kasht and Sapt Varga Phal. 60, 45, 30, 22, 15, 8, 4, 2 and 0 are the Subhankas (Subha Griha Pankthis, benefic points), due to a Planets placement, respectively, in exaltation, Moolatrikona, own, great friends, friends, neutral, enemy, great enemy and debilitation Rāśi. If Subhanka is deducted from 60, Asubhanka (Asubh Pankthi, inauspicious points) will emerge. O Brahmin, in other Vargas these are halved. 
10. A Planet is considered auspicious in the first five of the said places. In the sixth place it is neutral, i.e. neither good nor bad. And in the other three places it is inauspicious. 
11-12. Nature of Effects, due to Dig Bala etc. The directional strength of a Planet is itself representative of the effects, due to the direction; and Kaal Bala itself is indicative of effects, due to the day. Whatever quantum of Dig Bala etc. are obtained by a Planet, will be the extent of auspicious effects, acquirable on account of that strength. Deducting those figures from 60, the extent of inauspiciousness is known. If auspiciousness is more in the case of a Planets strength, the Dasha and Houses, related to that Planet will be auspicious. These are converse, if inauspiciousness is predominant. 
13-14. Sapt Varga Phal and Isht and Kasht (Continued). The various strengths (i.e. the other 6 Vargas) be multiplied by the respective Planets Shad Bala Pinda, which will indicate the auspiciousness of the Varga concerned. Auspicious, or inauspicious aspect will be by multiplying the Subh, or Asubh Pankthi. Similarly auspicious, or inauspicious effects will be known by multiplying the auspicious, or inauspicious strength by the respective Pankthi. 
15-20. Effects of a House. The strength of a House and its Lord have already been explained. The actual effects will be a combination of House strength and its Lords strength. If there is a benefic in the House add the same to the auspicious effects and deduct from inauspicious effects, which will denote the inauspicious effects. If a malefic is in the House, reverse the process, i.e. add inauspicious effects and deduct auspicious effects. Similarly Aspects and Balaas. If a Planet is exalted, or with such a dignity, add auspicious effects and reduce inauspicious effects. For debilitation etc. it is converse. In Ashtak Varga add Bindus (auspicious points) and deduct Karanas (inauspicious points). If a House extends to two Rāśis, the rectification will be done, as per both the Lords. In that case, whichever Rāśi has more Bindus, that Rāśi will yield more favourable results, concerning that House. If both the Rāśis have more auspicious Bindus, take the average. Thus the auspicious and inauspicious effects of a House be understood. 
Ch. 29. House Padas 

1-3. Method of House Calculation. O Brahmin, I shall now tell you about the Padas (Arudhas) for Houses and Planets as well, as laid down by the earlier Mahārśis. The Pad of Lagna will correspond to the Rāśi, arrived at by counting so many Rāśis from Lagnas Lord, as he is away from 1st House. Similarly Padas for other Houses be known through their Lords. The word Pad exclusively denotes the Pad for Lagna. Names of the 12 Arudhas are Lagna Pad - Arudh of 1st House, 2nd of 2nd, Vikram (Bhratru) of 3rd, Matru (Sukh) of 4th, Mantra (5th) of 5th, Rog (Satru) of 6th, Dar (Kalatr) of 7th, Maran of 8th, Pitru of 9th House, 10th of 10th, 11th of 11th, 12th of 12th. 

4-5. Special Exceptions. The same House, or the 7th from it does not become its Pad. When the Pad falls in the same House, the 10th there from be treated, as its Pad. Similarly, when the 7th becomes the Pad of a House, the 4th from the original House in question be treated, as its Pad. If the ruler of a House be in the 4th from the House, then the very House occupied be noted, as the Pad. 

6-7. Padas for Planets. Note the position of a Planet and see how many Rāśis away is its own Rāśi with reference to its position. Count so many Rāśis from the said own Rāśi and the resultant Rāśi will become the Arudh of the Planet. If a Planet owns two Rāśis, or, if a Rāśi is owned by two Planets; consider the stronger and declare effects accordingly. 

8-11. Pad and Finance (up to Sloka 15). O Brahmin, I now tell you of some effects of Planets, based on Pad. If the 11th from Lagna Pad is occupied, or receives a Aspect from a Planet the native will be happy and rich; wealth will come through various means, if a benefic is related, as above. A malefic will confer wealth through questionable means. If there be both a benefic and a malefic, it will be through both means. If the Planet in question be in exaltation, or in own Rāśi etc., there will be plenty of gains and plenty of happiness. 

12. O excellent of the Brahmins, if the 12th from Lagna Pad does not receive a Aspect, as the 11th from Lagna Pad receives a Aspect from a Planet, then the gains will be uninterrupted. 

13-15. O Brahmin, the quantum of gains will correspond to the number of Planets in, or giving a Aspect to the 11th from Lagna Pad. If there is Argala for the said 11th, there will be more gains, while a benefic Argala will bring still more gains. If the said benefic, causing Argala is in his exaltation Rāśi, the gains will be still higher. If the said 11th receives a Aspect from a benefic from Lagna, the 9th etc., gains will increase in the ascending order. In all these cases, the 12th from Pad should simultaneously be free from malefic association. A benefic, placed in Lagna, giving a Aspect to the 11th from Arudh Lagna will be still beneficial. If the Aspect is from the 9th from Lagna, it will confer much more gains. 

16-17. Pad and Financial Losses (up to Sloka 21). If the 12th from Lagna Pad receives a Aspect from, or is conjunct with both benefics and malefics, there will be abundant earnings, but plenty of expenses. The benefic will cause through fair means, malefic through unfair means and mixed Planets through both fair and unfair means. 

18. If the 12th from Lagna Pad is conjunct Sun, Venus and Rahu, there will be loss of wealth through the king. Moon, giving a Aspect to (the said trio in the said House), will specifically cause more such losses. 

19. If Mercury is in the 12th from Lagna Pad and is conjunct with, or receives a Aspect from a benefic, similarly there will be expenses through paternal relatives. A malefic so related to the said Mercury will cause loss of wealth through disputes. 

20. O Brahmin, if Jupiter is in the 12th from Lagna Pad, receiving a Aspect from others, the expenses will be through taxes and on the person himself. 

21. O Brahmin, if Saturn is in the 12th from Lagna Pad along with Mars and receives a Aspect from others, the expenses will be through ones co-born. 

22. Gainful Sources. Whatever sources of expenses are indicated above with reference to the 12th from Lagna Pad, gains through similar sources will occur, if 11th House so features with reference to Lagna Pad. 

23. The 7th House from Pad (up to Sloka 27). If Rahu, or Ketu is placed in the 7th from Lagna Pad, the native will be troubled by disorders of the stomach, or by fire. 

24. Should there be Ketu in the 7th from Lagna Pad, receiving a Aspect from, or being conjunct with another malefic, the native will be adventurous, will have (prematurely) grey hair and a big male organ. 

25. Should one, two, or all three of Jupiter, Venus and Moon be in the 7th from Lagna Pad, the native will be very wealthy. 

26. Whether a benefic, or a malefic, if be exalted in the 7th from Lagna Pad, the native will be affluent and be famous. 

27. O Brahmin, these Yogas, as narrated by me with reference to the 7th from Lagna Pad, should also be considered from the 2nd of Lagna Pad. 

28. Anyone of Mercury, Jupiter and Venus being exalted in the 2nd from Lagna Pad and being with strength will make the subject rich. 

29. The Yogas so far stated by me with reference to Lagna Pad be similarly evaluated from Karakāńś as well. 

30-37. General. If Mercury is in the 2nd from Arudh Lagna, the native will Lord over the whole country. Venus in the 2nd from Lagna Pad will make one a poet, or a speaker. If the Dar Pad falls in an angle, or in a trine, counted from Lagna Pad, or, if Lagna Pad and Dar Pad both have strong Planets, the native will be rich and be famous in his country. If the Dar Pad falls in the 6th/ 8th/12th from Lagna Pad, then the native will be poor. If Lagna Pad and the 7th there from, or an angle, a trine, an Upachaya there from is occupied by a strong Planet, there will be happiness between the husband and wife. If Lagna Pad and Dar Pad are mutually in Kendras, or Konas, there will be amity between the couple. If these be in mutually 6th/8th/12th, doubtlessly mutual enmity will crop up. O Brahmin, similarly mutual relationship, or gain, or loss through son etc. be known, based on Lagna Pad and the relative House Pad. If Lagna Pad and Dar Pad are mutually angular, or 3rd and 11th, or in Konas, the native will be a king, ruling the earth. Similar deductions be made with reference to mutual positions of Lagna Pad and 2nd Pad. 
Ch. 30. Upa Pad 

1-6. O Brahmin, now I tell you about Upa Pad, the auspiciousness of which will confer on the native happiness from progeny, wife etc. The Pad of Lagna, as discussed earlier, is of prime importance. Upa Pad is calculated for the House, following the natal Lagna. This Upa Pad is also called Gaun Pad. O excellent of the Brahmins, if Upa Pad is conjunct with, or receives a Aspect from a benefic Planet, one will obtain full happiness from progeny and spouse. Should the Upa Pad be in a malefics Rāśi, or receives a Aspect from, or is conjunct with a malefic, one will become an ascetic and go without a wife. If (in the said circumstances) there be a benefic Aspect (on Upa Pad, or the related malefic), or a conjunct, deprival of spouse will not come to pass. In this case Sun, being exalted, or in a friendly Rāśi, is not a malefic. He is a malefic, if in debilitation, or in an enemy Rāśi. 

Notes by Santanam. Regarding Upa Pad calculations, there are more than two views on the same Sloka of Mahārśi Parashara, or an identical Sutra from Jaimini. In this text, the word Anuchar is used, which denotes the House, following the Lagna at birth. Normally this is 12th House. However, when we study other comment6thes on Jaimini (Chaukhambh Hindi edition), we are taught, that it is 12th House in the case of an odd Rāśi ascending and it is 2nd House in the case of an even Rāśi ascending. Accordingly the Pad for the 12th, or the 2nd from Lagna is called Upa Pad. In calculating Upa Pad the rules mentioned in verses 4 and 5 of the previous chapter be kept in mind. 
7-12. Effect from the 2nd from Upa Pad. If the 2nd from Upa Pad is a benefic Rāśi, or receives a Aspect from, or is conjunct with a benefic, the same good results (as for wife and sons) will come to pass. If there is a Planet in the 2nd from Upa Pad in its debilitation Rāśi, or debilitation Ańś, or is conjunct with a debilitated, or malefic Planet, there will be destruction of wife. If the said occupant be in its exaltation Rāśi, or Navāmśa, or receives a Aspect from another Planet, there will be many charming and virtuous wives. Oh Brahmin, if Gemini happens to be the 2nd from Upa Pad, then also there will be many wives. O excellent of the Brahmins, if the Upa Pad, or the 2nd there from be occupied by its own Lord, or, if the said Lord is in his other own House, the death of wife will be at advanced age. 
13-15. Wife from the 2nd of Upa Pad (up to Sloka 22). If a Planet being constant indicator of wife (i.e. the 7th Lord, or Venus) is in its own House, there will be loss of wife only at a later stage. If the Lord of Upa Pad, or the constant significator of wife is in exaltation, the wife will be from a noble family. Reverse will be the case, if he is debilitated. O Brahmin, if the 2nd from Upa Pad is related to a benefic, the wife will be beautiful, fortunate and virtuous. 
16. Should Saturn and Rahu be in the 2nd from Upa Pad, the native will lose his wife on account of calumny, or through death. 
17. The natives wife will be troubled by disorder of blood, leucorrhoea (Pradar) etc., if Venus and Ketu are in the 2nd from Upa Pad. 
18. Mercury with Ketu in the 2nd from Upa Pad will cause breakage of bones, while Rahu, Saturn and Sun will cause distress of bones. 
19-22. Mercury and Rahu in the 2nd from Upa Pad will give a stout-bodied wife. If the 2nd from Upa Pad happens to be one of Mercury’s Rāśis and is tenanted by Mars and Saturn, the wife of the native will suffer from nasal disorders. Similarly a Rāśi of Mars, becoming the 2nd from Upa Pad and occupied by Mars and Saturn, will cause nasal disorders to ones wife. Jupiter and Saturn will, if be in the 2nd from Upa Pad, cause disorders of ears and/or eyes to the wife. If Mercury and Marsare placed in the 2nd from Upa Pad other than their own Rāśis, or, if Rahu is with Jupiter in the 2nd from Upa Pad, the natives wife will suffer from dental disorders. Saturn and Rahu together in one of Saturn’s Rāśis, which is the 2nd from Upa Pad, will cause lameness, or windy disorders to the natives wife. These evils will not come to pass, if there happens to be a Conjunct with, or a Aspect from a benefic (or from another benefic in the case of affliction being caused by a benefic himself). 23-23. O Brahmin, all these effects be deduced from the natal Lagna, Lagna Pad, the 7th from Upa Pad and the Lords thereof. So say Narada and others. 
25-28. About Sons. If Saturn, Moon and Mercury are together in the 9th from one of the said places (Sloka 23), there will be no son at all, while Sun, Jupiter and Rahu so placed will give a number of sons. Moon so placed will give a son, while a mixture of Planets will delay the obtainment of a son. The son, caused by the Conjunct of Sun, Jupiter and Rahu, 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 brothers son will come in adoption. In all these cases odd Rāśis will yield many sons, while even Rāśis will cause only a few. 
29-30. Many Sons and Many Daughters. O Brahmin, if Leo happens to be Upa Pad and receives a Aspect from Moon, there will be a limited number of children. Similarly Virgo will cause many daughters. 
31. Co-born form Lagna Pad (up to Sloka 36). Rahu and Saturn in the 3rd, or the 11th from Lagna Pad will destroy the co-born of the native. Rahu and Saturn in the 11th will indicate the destruction of elder brothers and/or sisters and in the 3rd younger ones. 
32. If Venus is in the 3rd, or the 11th from Lagna Pad, there would have been an abortion to the mother earlier. Same is the effect, if Venus is in the 8th from natal Lagna, or from Lagna Pad. 
33-36. These are the effects, o Brahmin, as stated by Mahārśis for the 3rd and the 11th from Lagna Pad. Should Moon, Jupiter, Mercury and Mars be in the 3rd, or the 11th from Lagna Pad, there will be many valorous co-born. Should Saturn and Mars be in the 3rd, or the 11th from Lagna Pad, or give Aspects thereto, younger and elder co-born will, respectively, be destroyed. If Saturn is alone in one of the said Houses, the native will be spared, while the co-born will die. Ketu in the 3rd, or the 11th will give abundant happiness from ones sisters. 
37. Other Matters from Lagna Pad (up to Sloka 43). If the 6th from Lagna Pad is occupied by a malefic and is bereft of a Conjunct with, or a Aspect from a benefic, the native will be a thief. 
38. If Rahu is in the 7th, or the 12th from Lagna Pad, or gives a Aspect to one of the said Houses, the native will be endowed with spiritual knowledge and be very fortunate. 
39. If Mercury is in Lagna Pad, the native will Lord over a whole country, while Jupiter will make him a knower of all things. Venus in this context denotes a poet/speaker (also see Ch. 29, verse 30). 
40. O excellent of the Brahmins, if benefics occupy the 2nd from Upa Pad, or from Lagna Pad, the native will be endowed with all kinds of wealth and be intelligent. 
41. One will surely become a thief, if the Lord of the 2nd from Upa Pad is in 2nd House and is there conjunct with a malefic Planet. 
42-43. O Brahmin, if Rahu is in the 2nd from the Lord of the 7th, counted from Upa Pad, the native will have long and projected teeth. Ketu in the 2nd from the Lord of the 7th, counted from Upa Pad, will cause stammering and Saturn in the 2nd from the Lord of the 7th, counted from Upa Pad, will make one look ugly. Mixed will be the effects, if there are mixed Planets.
