The wonderful gem of predictive astrology, containing miraculous planetary combinations and house-by-house interpretations.
तनुस्थो रविः तुंगयष्टिं विधत्ते मनः संतपेत् दारदायाद्वर्गात् । वपुः पीड्यते वातपित्तेन नित्यं स वै पर्यटन् ह्रासवृद्धिं प्रयाति ॥
The Sun in the 1st house gives a tall, dignified stature and radiant self-respect, though the mind remains prone to inner scorching (santapa); the constitution is bilious-airy with fluctuating fortunes.
धने यस्य भानुः स भाग्याधिकः स्यात्, चतुष्पात् सुखं सद्व्यये स्वं च याति । कुटुम्बे कलिः जायया जायतेऽपि, क्रिया निष्फला याति लाभस्य हेतोः ॥
One who has the Sun in the 2nd house enjoys elevated fortune and wealth, happiness from children and cattle, but tends toward lavish or wasteful expenditure.
तृतीये सहस्रांशुरत्यन्तशूरो भवेद् भ्रातृहीनः सुखी सर्वकालम् । प्रतापी धनी राजमान्यो दयालुर्विजेता रिपूणां यशश्चापि दीप्तम् ॥
The Sun in the 3rd house makes the native exceptionally brave, heroic, wealthy, respected by kings, generous, and triumphant over adversaries.
