Sloka. 55. Eminent profesors of Astrology say that the 3rd, 11th, 6th and the 10 th houses are Upachaya (signs of increase or growth) houses. The remaining houses ,i z. the 9th, 2nd,4th, 5th, 7th, 8th, 12th and the 1st are houses of suffering. These houses if occupied or aspected by their several lords, or by Budha, Sukra or Guru, but unoccupied and unaspected by the rest, produce auspicious effects in respect to a birth, or to a person making a query.
Notes: First half , In the opinion of some eminent astrologers like Garga, the 3rd,6th, 10th and 11th houses cease to be Upachya houses if they are aspected by malefic or other inimical plancts Says Garga. That is, the term Upachaya is applied to the 3rd, 6th 10th, arid 11th houses provided they are not aspected by malefics or by planets inimical to the lords of those houses. But this view is not accepted by Varahamihira. He would have those houses always as Upachaya ones. And in this’ he is supported by Satya and Yavaneswara.
