सूर्यातपरतः स्थितो योगो वेसीति परिकीर्तितः। वोसी पूर्वगो ज्ञेय उभयचारी च यः स्थितः॥
sūryātparataḥ sthito yogo vesīti parikīrtitaḥ | vosī pūrvago jñeya ubhayacārī ca yaḥ sthitaḥ ||
A planet in the house following the Sun is famed as the Vesi yoga; in the preceding house it is known as Vosi; and if planets occupy both sides, it is the Ubhayachari yoga.
सूर्यात स्वन्त्योभयस्थैश्च विना चन्द्रं कुजादिभिः । वेशिवोशिसमाख्यौ च तथोभयचरः क्रमात ॥ १॥
sūryāt svantyobhayasthaiśca vinā candraṃ kujādibhiḥ | veśivośisamākhyau ca tathobhayacaraḥ kramāt || 1||
Planets other than the Moon occupying the 2nd from the Sun form Vesi; in the 12th — Vosi; in both — Ubhayachari.
समदृक् सत्यवाङ् मर्त्यो दीर्घकायोऽलसस्तथा । सुखभागल्पबित्तोऽपि वेशियोगसमुद्भवः ॥ २॥
samadṛk satyavāṅ martyo dīrghakāyo 'lasastathā | sukhabhāgalpavitto'pi veśiyogasamudbhavaḥ || 2||
Born in Vesi yoga, a person is even-sighted, truthful, long-bodied and somewhat lazy — happy though of modest wealth.
बोशौ च निपुणो दाता यशोविद्याबलान्वितः । तथोभयचरे जातो भूपो वा तत्समः सुखी ॥ ३॥ शुभग्रहभवे योगे फलमेवं विचिन्तयेत् । पापग्रहसमुतपन्ने योगे तु फलमन्यथा ॥ ४॥
vośau ca nipuṇo dātā yaśovidyābalānvitaḥ | tathobhayacare jāto bhūpo vā tatsamaḥ sukhī || 3|| śubhagrahabhave yoga phalam evaṃ vicintayet || pāpagrahasamutpanne yoga tu phalam anyathā || 4||
From Vosi the native is skilled, generous, endowed with fame, learning and strength; born in Ubhayachari he is a king or equal to one, and happy. These fruits apply when benefics form the yogas; malefics produce quite different results.
