Bhṛgu Sūtram

भृगुसूत्रम्

attributed to Bhṛgu · uncertain; the transmitted text is late and its attribution is traditional rather than historical · nadi

What this text is

Some 568 terse sūtras on the results of each graha in each bhāva — the shortest statement of that doctrine in the corpus.

Eight sections, one per graha from the Sun to Ketu, each running the graha through the twelve houses.

Its role in this app

A corroborating lineage for graha-in-bhāva claims, and a useful check precisely BECAUSE it is terse: where a longer text gives a rich reading, this one gives the bare assertion, so the two can be compared without a commentator standing between them.

What our reading found

Findings from this project's own verification passes — recorded because a source's defects are part of citing it honestly.

The .txt copy in our own library is SHORT BY TWO SŪTRAS in section 3, and worse: the loss of one sūtra’s head merged it forward, so that copy’s 3.59 is a conflation of two sūtras and its text is wrong while its numbering shows no gap at all. Caused by a minimum-length filter in our own fetch tooling (CORRECTIONS.md C23). The .html is complete and is what is ingested.

The text itself

The Bhṛgu Sūtram is here in full. ⚠ THE SANSKRIT OF THIS TEXT WAS CORRECTED IN 35 PLACES ON 2026-09-08, AND A READER WHO QUOTED IT BEFORE THAT DATE SHOULD RE-READ WHAT THEY QUOTED. Two printed exemplars were opened for the first time — Siddhanāth Śarmā's edition with his Siddhaprabhākarī ṭīkā, in the Śrī Veṅkaṭeśvar Press (Bombay) letterpress and in the Khemrāj Śrīkṛṣṇadās resetting — and 195 of these 568 sūtras were read off the page and compared letter by letter with our text. 152 agreed. 42 differed: 35 were corrected, 7 were adjudicated in our source's favour and left standing, and at one place the printing itself could not be read. THREE OF THE CORRECTIONS HAD BEEN CHANGING WHAT THE TEXT SAYS: 1.102 had lost the sūtra's negation and told the reader that a vehicle-yoga makes a man greatly fortunate where the text says it does NOT; 3.18 said gain of wealth where the text says non-gain; 2.66 dated an event to the fifteenth year where the text says the fiftieth. Two declared corruptions (1.15, 1.19) and two standing refusals (1.89, 5.15) were closed on the ink. WHAT THAT DOES NOT BUY. Both printings carry ONE editor's text and descend from his single manuscript, so they are two exemplars and not two recensions: the tier stays 'etext' and the app may say only "our source reads…". 373 of the 568 sūtras have still never been laid against any printed page, and an unexamined verse in this text should be treated as unchecked, not as correct. One gap is open and this work does not close it: we cannot name the printing our own encoded source was keyed from, because the e-text's own metadata links an archive scan that now returns empty metadata. The "naming the source" half of the etext licence is therefore met only by naming the e-text file. HOW THE LENGTH OF THIS WORK WAS ESTABLISHED. The Veṅkaṭeśvar printing states its own length chapter by chapter, in the numeral closing each adhyāya before its colophon, and all eight were read on the plate: 110 · 71 · 91 · 81 · 58 · 68 · 53 · 32. Seven match our chapters exactly. Chapter 2 differs by four because that printing sets the Moon's 8th-house block UNNUMBERED and letters it (क–ग), where our source numbers those same four sūtras 47–50 — the same words on both sides, and nothing lost by either. The work is therefore 568 sūtras as we divide it, and we hold all of them. On 2026-10-01 the mūla verification of 2026-09 ruled every one of the 568 sūtras. 37 corrections were written, 33 on the lexicon and 4 on a parallel inside this book (cross-corpus); 531 sūtras were cleared; 37 variant readings went on the adjudication ledger; one doubt was opened (5.6, साञ्चरवान्, which is no word, where the two machine reads give साक्षरवान् and साश्वरवान्); and 16 more corrections are HELD for a plate pass. Every written correction mends a form that is no Sanskrit word, and each rests on something inside our own text: the grammar, or the same word spelt correctly elsewhere in this book. None was written because a printing gives a different reading. Two examples. 1.87's दिर्घायुः is now दीर्घायुः, as 1.82 and 1.84 already spell it. 6.60 now reads अनेकक्रतुसिद्धिः, 'the accomplishment of many sacrifices', on this book's own 5.47 विशेषक्रतुसिद्धिः; that reverses a keep recorded on 2026-09-08, and its English and Hindi moved with it. A repair pass the same day read the English and Hindi of the other 36 corrected sūtras and moved one more (3.20, now subhaga). A sūtra here is a prose aphorism of about three words, so the metre decided nothing. One held correction touches a sūtra the paragraphs above call closed: at 5.15 the 2026-09-08 eye reading recorded the Khemrāj resetting's year as अष्टत्रिंसद्, while both machine reads now give the classical अष्टत्रिंशद्; the year is thirty-eight either way, and only the page can settle the one letter. THE LENGTH STANDS AT 568 SŪTRAS AND IS NOT RE-ARGUED. Its basis is the one already recorded, "colophon-sum": the closing numerals of the eight adhyāyas in the Veṅkaṭeśvar Press copy, read on the plate on 2026-09-08, give 110 · 71 · 91 · 81 · 58 · 68 · 53 · 32 = 564 numbered sūtras, and the four unnumbered sūtras of the Moon's 8th-house block make 568. Nothing in this pass moves that count. ⚠ HERE IS WHAT A READER WOULD OTHERWISE GET WRONG. "568 of 568 verified" does not mean each sūtra was checked against two independent printings. Both printings used in this pass carry one editor's text, Siddhanāth Śarmā's, typeset twice (Veṅkaṭeśvar Press and Khemrāj), and the pass worked from machine reads of both. Where both reads agree with us, that is one edition agreeing with our e-text once, not two witnesses. Where both reads differ from us (99 sūtras), they give the identical string on 67, so their agreement against us is again one editor speaking once. That is why no store's reading was allowed to change a letter here. A cleared sūtra means our e-text matches Śarmā's edition as a machine reads it; it does not mean anyone has read that sūtra on a page. The 195 sūtras worked against the plate on 2026-09-08 are still the only ones read on a page, and the other 373 have now been compared with machine reads only. 568 of this text's 568 verses carry an English translation; 8 of 8 chapters are begun or finished (1–8). This is the whole work: 568 verses against the 568 it is known to have. The Sanskrit is tier 'etext': one encoded source, machine-parsed, with 8 of 8 chapter(s) carrying a visual-validation record (8 audited) and 8 chapter(s) carrying an adjudication ledger. The app may say "our source reads…", naming the source; it may not say "the text reads…".

568 verses in the original Sanskrit with our own English translation, which is made from that Sanskrit and not adapted from any existing translation. Machine-parsed from sanskritdocuments.org e-text (bhrigusUtram.html) by scripts/corpus/ingest-etext.mjs on 2026-09-01. Segmentation rule: Body bounded to the page's <PRE id='content'> block BEFORE any tag stripping — the page carries a second <pre class='inf'> holding the encoder's metadata, plus a footer, and a whole-file strip would draw them in. (Today they happen to hold no Devanagari and a script filter would also drop them; bounding the block is the decision, not the luck.) Inside it, tags are stripped, lines trimmed, and the two Latin encoder/proofreader credit lines dropped as non-Devanagari. Chapter boundary = a line containing तन्वादि: eight matches, one per planet section, and the only anchor invariant across all eight (for the three rules that look right and are not, see the comment on CHAPTER). Sūtra boundary = the terminal ॥N॥ marker, TRUNCATED at the match so nothing after it can enter the mūla; multi-line sūtras (46 continuation lines over 44 units) accumulate and join on a single space, except across the one hyphenated line break, which is rejoined as the single compound separator it is. THE 96 HOUSE RUBRICS (8 chapters × 12 bhāvas, e.g. लग्नात्पञ्चमे भौमफलं) are unnumbered structure: they are consumed rather than emitted as sūtras, and carried onto every sūtra beneath them as an `edition` note naming the bhāva and quoting the rubric verbatim. That is not decoration — 110 sūtras are a single nominative word and mean nothing without the rubric they are predicated of. Dropped, deliberately and by name: the front-matter title line भृगु सूत्रम्, the closing colophon इति भृगुसूत्राणि समाप्ता ।, and the two Latin credit lines. Nothing else is discarded; a line that matches no rule THROWS rather than being skipped. The source's editorial defects are NOT repaired BY THE INGEST — seven defective rubric spellings, a missing virāma at ch3 v60 (भगचुम्बनवान for भगचुम्बनवान्), and run-together word-pairs at ch2 v75 and elsewhere. The mūla holds what the source prints, EXCEPT where a later pass has adjudicated a reading against a printed witness and recorded the ruling in that verse's revisions[]; 35 sūtras were corrected that way on 2026-09-08. Note on the note type: the engine emits rubric notes as type `edition`, the nearest of the schema's seven — they are statements about what this printing sets around the sūtra.

Not yet independently audited. Every reading here was established and recorded by the process described above, but no fresh reader has re-derived these verses from the plates without seeing our record. When that was done for the first text we published, it found real errors — so treat this one as a first edition and check anything you intend to rely on. The evidence behind every verse is committed and readable.

65 reading disagreements were adjudicated and are recorded verse by verse. Every akṣara was legible.

Adhyāya 1 · अथ तन्वादिद्वादश भावस्थित रवि फलमाह

आरोग्यं भवति

ārogyaṃ bhavati

⟨With the Sun in the lagna⟩ there is freedom from disease.

  • About this edition: bhāva 1 of 12 — the source printing sets this sūtra under the unnumbered running rubric "तत्रादौ लग्ने रविफलं", which is structure and not sūtra text.
  • About this edition: ārogya is the negative term — absence of disease — not 'good fortune'. The bhāva is supplied from the edition's running rubric तत्रादौ लग्ने रविफलं, which is structure and not sūtra text; it governs sūtras 1–21.

पित्तप्रकृतिः नेत्ररोगी

pittaprakṛtiḥ netrarogī

⟨He is⟩ of bilious constitution, ⟨and⟩ suffers from disease of the eyes.

  • About this edition: pitta-prakṛti is the āyurvedic humoral constitution, kept as such; the Sun's own kāraka-ship of the eye stands behind netra-rogī.

मेधावी सदाचारी वा

medhāvī sadācārī vā

⟨He is⟩ intelligent, or ⟨else⟩ of virtuous conduct.

  • About this edition: vā is left disjunctive in both renderings; it can also be read as a weak connective ('and also'), and अथवा holds the same two-way force in Hindi.

उष्णोदरवान्

uṣṇodaravān

⟨He is⟩ hot-bellied ⟨of sharp digestive fire⟩.

  • About this edition: SETTLED ON THE PLATE 2026-09-08. Both printings set उष्णोदरवान् as one word (Veṅkaṭeśvar printed p. १, at ॥४॥, where it is broken across the line as उष्णोदर-वान्), and the edition's own Hindi glosses it जठराग्नि तेज हो — his digestive fire is sharp. The e-text's word-space had left two readings open, uṣṇaḥ + udaravān and dara ('fear'); the second is now excluded.

मूर्खः पुत्रहीनः

mūrkhaḥ putrahīnaḥ

⟨He is⟩ a fool, ⟨and⟩ without a son.

  • About this edition: mūrkha is rendered at its weight; putra-hīna is 'sonless' specifically, not 'childless'.

तीक्ष्णबुद्धिः

tīkṣṇabuddhiḥ

⟨He is⟩ of sharp intellect.

  • About this edition: pravāsa-śīla is a habit, not one journey — 'given to' rather than 'travels'.

स्वोच्चे कीर्तिमान्

svocce kīrtimān

⟨When the Sun is⟩ in his own exaltation, ⟨the native is⟩ renowned.

  • About this edition: svocca = the graha's own exaltation sign (Meṣa for the Sun); the locative is the condition, the nominative the result.

बलिनिरीक्षिते विद्वान्

balinirīkṣite vidvān

⟨When the Sun is⟩ aspected by a strong ⟨graha⟩, ⟨the native is⟩ learned.

  • About this edition: balin is left unspecified — the sūtra says 'a strong one', not 'a strong benefic'; the aspecting graha is supplied only as ⟨graha⟩.

नीचे प्रतापवान्

nīce pratāpavān

⟨When the Sun is⟩ debilitated, ⟨the native is⟩ possessed of fierce might.

  • About this edition: the result is favourable although the graha is debilitated; the sūtra says so and is not adjusted. pratāpa is burning splendour/might, not mere 'power'.

ज्ञानद्वेषी दरिद्रः अन्धकः

jñānadveṣī daridraḥ andhakaḥ

⟨He is⟩ a hater of knowledge, destitute, ⟨and⟩ blind.

  • About this edition: andhaka is blindness, kept unsoftened; daridra is destitution, not 'of modest means'.

शुभदृष्टे न दोषः

śubhadṛṣṭe na doṣaḥ

⟨If the Sun is⟩ aspected by a benefic, there is no harm.

  • About this edition: doṣa here is the defect/affliction just enumerated, not moral fault; the same sūtra recurs verbatim at 21.

सिंहे स्वांशे नाथः

siṃhe svāṃśe nāthaḥ

In Siṃha ⟨Leo⟩, in his own aṃśa, ⟨the native becomes⟩ a lord.

  • About this edition: svāṃśa = the Sun's own navāṃśa; nātha is 'lord, master, protector' — the Hindi keeps नाथ and glosses it, since English must choose one of its senses.

कुलीरे ज्ञानवान्

kulīre jñānavān

In Kulīra ⟨Karka, Cancer⟩, ⟨he is⟩ possessed of knowledge.

  • About this edition: kulīra ('crab') is this text's name for Karka; the rāśi is named by number-equivalent so it stays checkable against the engine's vocabulary.

रोगी बुद्बुदाक्षः

rogī budbudākṣaḥ

⟨He is⟩ sickly, with bubble-like eyes.

  • About this edition: DECLARED CORRUPTION CLOSED 2026-09-08. The e-text read बुदबुदाक्षह्ः, an encoding corruption; the plate settles it. The Veṅkaṭeśvar printing sets रोगी बुद्बुदाक्षः ॥१५॥ on printed p. २. The image is bubble/blister-like eyes — watery or protuberant; the text gives the simile, not a diagnosis, and the rendering keeps it.

मकरे हृद्रोगी

makare hṛdrogī

⟨In⟩ Makara ⟨Capricorn⟩, ⟨he is⟩ afflicted with disease of the heart.

  • About this edition: SETTLED ON THE PLATE 2026-09-08: the Veṅkaṭeśvar printing reads मकरे (locative), as the sign-series requires and as its neighbours 13, 14 and 17 already have. The e-text's nominative मकरो was its own slip.

मीने स्त्रीजनसेवी

mīne strījanasevī

In Mīna ⟨Pisces⟩, ⟨he is⟩ one who attends upon womenfolk.

  • About this edition: sevī is two-way — 'one who serves/waits upon' and 'one addicted to, who frequents'. English must pick one and takes the first; the Hindi carries both, as सेवी does in the Sanskrit.

कन्यायां रवौ कन्याप्रजः दारहीनः कृतघ्नः

kanyāyāṃ ravau kanyāprajaḥ dārahīnaḥ kṛtaghnaḥ

When the Sun is in Kanyā ⟨Virgo⟩, ⟨his⟩ offspring are daughters; he is without a wife, ⟨and⟩ ungrateful.

  • About this edition: kanyā puns across the sūtra — the rāśi and the daughters. kṛtaghna is 'one who destroys what was done for him', i.e. ungrateful, and is not softened; dāra-hīna is wifeless, whether by loss or by never marrying — the sūtra does not say which.

क्षेत्री शुभयुक्तः आरोग्यवान्

kṣetrī śubhayuktaḥ ārogyavān

⟨The Sun⟩ in his own sign (kṣetrī) ⟨and⟩ joined with a benefic — ⟨the native is⟩ free of disease.

  • About this edition: DECLARED CORRUPTION CLOSED 2026-09-08. The e-text read शुभयुक्तहः, an encoding corruption; the Veṅkaṭeśvar printing sets क्षेत्री शुभयुक्तः आरोग्यवान् ॥१९॥ on printed p. २. kṣetrī is taken as the condition ('in his own field/sign'), matching the conditional pattern of 8–12 and 20–21; read instead as a result it would mean 'a landholder', and that reading is left on the record rather than excluded.

पापयुते शत्रुनीचक्षेत्रे तृतीये वर्षे ज्वरपीडा

pāpayute śatrunīcakṣetre tṛtīye varṣe jvarapīḍā

⟨When the Sun is⟩ joined with a malefic ⟨and⟩ in an enemy's sign or in debilitation, ⟨there is⟩ affliction by fever in the third year.

  • About this edition: तृतीये वर्षे = in the third year (of life), checked against the mūla. śatru-nīca-kṣetre is one compound covering both an enemy's sign and the debilitation sign; śatru is the enemy graha here, not the 6th bhāva.

शुभदृष्टे न दोषः

śubhadṛṣṭe na doṣaḥ

  • About this edition: verbatim repetition of sūtra 12; it closes the lagna section as 12 closed its own run, and is rendered identically rather than varied.

मुखरोगी

mukharogī

⟨With the Sun in the second bhāva, the native is⟩ afflicted with disease of the mouth.

पञ्चविंशतिवर्षे राजदण्डेन द्रव्यच्छेदः

pañcaviṃśativarṣe rājadaṇḍena dravyacchedaḥ

In the twenty-fifth year, ⟨there is⟩ loss of property through punishment by the king.

  • About this edition: e-text reads व्यपहरती for व्यपहरति (3rd sg. present). वीक्षिते is the same aspect-verb as दृष्टे above and is rendered alike; doṣādīn is plural with 'ādi', so the removal covers the whole enumerated run, not one defect. [2026-10-01: the mūla now reads व्यपहरति; this sentence names व्यपहरती, the form our text carried before the mūla-verification pass of 2026-10-01 corrected it, and it is kept as history.]

  • About this edition: pavana is both 'wind' and 'purifying', so पवनवाक् can be 'whose speech is swift as the wind' or 'of purifying speech'. English takes the first; the Hindi keeps पवनवाक् itself and glosses only the simile, so the second reading is not shut out. The 2nd bhāva is the bhāva of speech, which is why the Sun–Budha conjunction is reported here at all.

धनाधिपःस्वोच्चे वाग्मी

  • About this edition: Governing rubric (the Sun in the 2nd from lagna); the rubric itself is not sūtra text. स्वोच्च = sva+ucca, rendered 'its own exaltation'; the compound is also commonly read as 'its own sign or its exaltation' — the sūtra does not decide it. Syntax is loose: धनाधिपः is nominative where a locative absolute (धनाधिपे) is expected. वाग्मी here is the result 'eloquent', not the glossary's graha-epithet वाग्मिन् = Jupiter; the 2nd bhāva is the bhāva of speech.
  • About this edition: SOURCE DEFECT, recorded 2026-09-08 and NOT repaired: the e-text sets धनाधिपःस्वोच्चे with no word-space. The join is our source's, not our tag-stripper's — the HTML has it too — and the mūla holds what the source prints. The reading is unaffected; the two words are धनाधिपः and स्वोच्चे.

शास्त्रज्ञः ज्ञानवान् नेत्रसौख्यं राजयोगश्च

śāstrajñaḥ jñānavān netrasaukhyaṃ rājayogaśca

Learned in the śāstras; possessed of knowledge; well-being of the eyes; and a rājayoga.

  • About this edition: Sun in the 3rd (bhāva of brothers) — the enumeration 33–42 runs on this one placement. अनुज = a younger sibling, ज्येष्ठ = the elder. नाश rendered at weight per the glossary; the sūtra names no softer outcome.

पञ्चमे वर्षे चतुरष्ट द्वादशवर्षे वा किञ्चित्पीडा

  • About this edition: Sun in the 3rd. पाप = malefic per the glossary; क्रूर in क्रूरकर्ता is NOT the graha class here but a description of the native's own acts, so 'cruel' stands (the glossary's ban on 'cruel' governs the graha class only).

द्विभ्रातृमान् पराक्रमी

dvibhrātṛmān parākramī

Possessed of two brothers; valorous.

  • About this edition: Sun in the 3rd. शुभ rendered 'benefic' as the graha class opposed to पाप 'malefic' (glossary rows शुभ and पाप read together). सोदर = born of the same womb, hence 'uterine'. वृद्धि = increase, per the glossary.

भावाधिपे बलयुते भ्रातृदीर्घायुः

bhāvādhipe balayute bhrātṛdīrghāyuḥ

⟨If⟩ the lord of the bhāva (house) is endowed with strength — long life for the brother.

  • About this edition: Sun in the 3rd; भावाधिप = the lord of that bhāva, i.e. of the 3rd. बलयुत literally 'joined with strength' — the sūtra uses युत of strength here, not of a graha.

पापयुते पापेक्षणवशान्नाशः

pāpayute pāpekṣaṇavaśānnāśaḥ

⟨If⟩ joined by a malefic, ⟨and⟩ by force of a malefic's aspect — destruction ⟨of the brothers⟩.

  • About this edition: Sun in the 3rd. The e-text prints पापेक्षणवंशान्नाशः with anusvāra (वंशात्); read as वशात् 'by force of', on the strength of the exact parallel in the next sūtra (शुभवीक्षणवशात्) and because the sandhi -आन्नाशः requires an ablative, which blocks a compound वंशनाश 'destruction of the lineage'. If वंशात् is retained, the sense would be 'destruction of the family line'. Also note पापेक्षण here vs पापवीक्षण in 48 — the e-text spells the word three ways across this chapter (ईक्षण / वीक्षण / विक्षण). [2026-10-01: the mūla now reads पापेक्षणवशान्नाशः; this sentence names पापेक्षणवंशान्नाशः, the form our text carried before the mūla-verification pass of 2026-10-01 corrected it, and it is kept as history.]

शुभवीक्षणवशाद्धनवान् भोगी सुखीच

śubhavīkṣaṇavaśāddhanavān bhogī sukhīca

By force of a benefic's aspect — wealthy, an enjoyer ⟨of pleasures⟩, and happy.

भावाधिपे बलयुते स्वक्षेत्रत्रिकोणे केन्द्रे लक्षणापेक्षया आन्दोलिकाप्राप्तिः

bhāvādhipe balayute svakṣetratrikoṇe kendre lakṣaṇāpekṣayā āndolikāprāptiḥ

⟨If⟩ the lord of the bhāva is endowed with strength ⟨and placed⟩ in its own sign, in a trikoṇa ⟨or⟩ in a kendra — in proportion to the indications, the obtaining of a palanquin.

  • About this edition: Sun in the 4th. केन्द्र and त्रिकोण kept per the glossary (kendra = an angle: 1, 4, 7, 10; trikoṇa = a trine: 1, 5, 9). क्षेत्र here = sign (svakṣetra, own sign) — contrast sūtra 49, where the same word is land. आन्दोलिका = a swing-litter/palanquin, the 4th bhāva's conveyance. लक्षणापेक्षया = 'with regard to the marks', i.e. the grade of the result follows the grade of the indications.

पापयुते पापवीक्षणवशाद्दुष्टस्थाने दुर्वाहनसिद्धिः

pāpayute pāpavīkṣaṇavaśādduṣṭasthāne durvāhanasiddhiḥ

The e-text prints पापविक्षण for पापवीक्षण (aspect) — an orthographic slip, not a different word. दुष्टस्थान = an evil house, conventionally the duḥsthānas 6, 8, 12, though this sūtra does not enumerate them. दुर्वाहन = a bad/mean vehicle, the negative counterpart of 47's palanquin. [2026-10-01: the mūla now reads पापवीक्षणवशाद्दुष्टस्थाने; this sentence names पापविक्षण, the form our text carried before the mūla-verification pass of 2026-10-01 corrected it, and it is kept as history.]

क्षेत्रहीनः

kṣetrahīnaḥ

परगृह एव वासः

paragṛha eva vāsaḥ

Residence in another's house alone.

निर्धनः स्थूलदेही सप्तमे वर्षे पित्ररिष्टवान्

nirdhanaḥ sthūladehī saptame varṣe pitrariṣṭavān

Poor; of a stout body; in the seventh year, beset by ariṣṭa ⟨peril⟩ to the father.

Year 7 as printed. अरिष्ट is left as the technical term and glossed 'peril': it covers calamity up to and including death, and narrowing it either way would decide what the sūtra leaves open.

मेधावी अल्प पुत्रः बुद्धिमान्

medhāvī alpa putraḥ buddhimān

Of retentive intellect; few sons; intelligent.

राहुकेतुयुते सर्पशापात् सुतक्षयः

rāhuketuyute sarpaśāpāt sutakṣayaḥ

⟨If⟩ joined by Rāhu ⟨or⟩ Ketu — loss of sons through a serpent's curse.

  • About this edition: Sun in the 5th. सर्पशाप (the serpent's curse) named as the cause, in the standard śāpa aetiology of childlessness. क्षय = wasting away/loss, rendered without softening.

कुजयुते शत्रुयुते मूलात्

kujayute śatruyute mūlāt

⟨If⟩ joined by Mars (kuja), ⟨or⟩ joined by an enemy ⟨graha⟩ — ⟨the loss of sons is⟩ from the root.

  • About this edition: Sun in the 5th; the sūtra is elliptical and borrows सुतक्षयः from 54. कुज = Mars per the glossary. शत्रु taken as an inimical graha (the personal sense the glossary flags), not the 6th bhāva. मूलात् taken as the idiom 'from the root', i.e. utterly; a second reading takes मूल as the nakṣatra Mūla (birth in it being the cause) — the sūtra as it stands supports either and neither is asserted here.

शुभदृष्टयुते न दोषः

śubhadṛṣṭayute na doṣaḥ

⟨If⟩ aspected ⟨and⟩ joined by a benefic — no blemish.

  • About this edition: Sun in the 5th. शुभदृष्टयुते compounds दृष्ट and युत on one benefic; whether the text requires both aspect and conjunction or accepts either is not decided by the wording, so the Hindi keeps the two joined as the Sanskrit does. दोष = blemish/fault, i.e. the harm of 54–55 does not follow.

सूर्यशरभादिषु भक्तः

sūryaśarabhādiṣu bhaktaḥ

Devoted to Sūrya, Śarabha and the rest.

बलयुते पुत्रसमृद्धिः

balayute putrasamṛddhiḥ

⟨If the lord is⟩ endowed with strength — abundance of sons.

  • About this edition: Sun in the 6th. शत्रु taken in the personal sense ('enemies'), not as the 6th bhāva, since the bhāva is already the rubric. The mūla says वृद्धि (increase) of enemies, not their defeat — rendered as it stands, though the common expectation of the Sun in the 6th is victory over enemies; no emendation is made.

विंशतिवर्षे नेत्र वैपरीत्यं भवति

  • About this edition: Opens the section on the Sun in the 6th bhāva from the lagna (edition rubric, not sūtra text). vaiparītya is 'reversal, contrariety' — a disorder of the eyes rather than blindness; the Sanskrit does not say which eye or how severe. The number is exactly the twentieth year (viṃśati).

  • About this edition: śubha-dṛṣṭa-yute is a locative absolute with the subject unexpressed; from the running section it is the Sun. doṣa = blemish/affliction — here the eye-disorder of the preceding sūtra.

विवाहविलम्बनं स्त्रीद्वेषी परदाररतः दारद्वयवान्

vivāhavilambanaṃ strīdveṣī paradārarataḥ dāradvayavān

Delay of marriage; ⟨he is⟩ a hater of women, addicted to other men's wives, possessed of two wives.

Two constructions are possible and neither is decidable from the words alone: 'whose mind ends in destruction' (his judgement leads him to ruin) or 'whose understanding comes at the end of ruin' (he learns only after loss). The Hindi is left open in the same way; the English fronts the first.

  • About this edition: svarkṣa (sva-ṛkṣa) here answers to svakṣetra used elsewhere in this chapter (82, 84, 90) — the graha's own sign; ṛkṣa can also mean nakṣatra, but the parallel decides for sign. One wife exactly, against two at 69 and many at 74.

शत्रुनीचवीक्षिते पापयुते वीक्षणैर्बहुदारवान्

śatrunīcavīkṣite pāpayute vīkṣaṇairbahudāravān

When aspected by inimical ⟨grahas⟩ or ⟨grahas⟩ debilitated, and joined with malefics, through ⟨such⟩ aspects ⟨he has⟩ many wives.

  • About this edition: śatru-nīca-vīkṣite can be construed either as here (aspected by inimical and debilitated grahas) or on the pattern of sūtra 86 as 'placed in an enemy's sign or in debilitation, and aspected'. vīkṣaṇaiḥ, instrumental plural, is redundant on the first reading and is rendered as a resumptive 'through such aspects'. The Hindi keeps the same double door.

अल्पपुत्रः नेत्ररोगी

  • About this edition: SOURCE DEFECT, recorded 2026-09-08 and NOT repaired: the e-text sets स्वोच्चेस्वक्षेत्रे with no word-space. The join is our source's, not our tag-stripper's — the HTML has it too — and the mūla holds what the source prints. The reading is unaffected; the two words are स्वोच्चे and स्वक्षेत्रे.

बहुधनवान् तपोध्यानशीलः गुरुदेवताभक्तः

[2026-10-01: the mūla now reads दीर्घायुः; this sentence names दिर्घायुः and dirghāyuḥ, the forms our text carried before the mūla-verification pass of 2026-10-01 corrected them, and they are kept as history.]

अष्टादशवर्षे विद्याधिकारेण प्रसिद्धो भवति द्रव्यार्जनसमर्थश्च

SETTLED ON THE PLATE 2026-09-08: both printings read विद्याधिकारेण (vidyā-adhikāreṇa, 'by his authority/standing in learning'), and the edition's own Hindi glosses it विद्या के प्रताप से. The e-text's विद्यादिकारेण, which had been read as vidyā-ādi-kāreṇa, is a lost mātrā.

दृष्टित्रितः राजप्रियः सत्कर्मरतः राजशूरः ख्यातिमान्

  • About this edition: REFUSAL LIFTED 2026-09-08. The opening word had been declared corrupt and left untranslated because दृष्टत्रितः construes as nothing. Both printings read दृष्टित्रितः — dṛṣṭi-trita, 'having a triad of aspects' — and the Veṅkaṭeśvar edition's own Hindi settles the sense beyond doubt: सूर्यको तीन ग्रह देखते हों तो, 'if three grahas aspect the Sun'. rāja-śūra is taken as a tatpuruṣa, 'the king's champion', but 'heroic among kings' is equally available.

स्वोच्चे स्वक्षेत्रे बलपरः

  • About this edition: kṣetra here is LAND (a temple field or endowed ground), not a graha's own sign — the sense it carries in sūtras 93 and 100 of this same chapter, and the same land-sense as iṣṭakṣetravān in sūtra 81. pratiṣṭhā covers both the consecration of a structure and the installing/settling of brāhmaṇas, and governs the whole list.

पापक्षेत्रे पापयुते पापदृष्टिवशात् कर्मविघ्नकरः

pāpakṣetre pāpayute pāpadṛṣṭivaśāt karmavighnakaraḥ

  • About this edition: SETTLED ON THE PLATE 2026-09-08. The e-text drops the i-mātrā (पापदृष्टवशात्); the Veṅkaṭeśvar printing sets पापदृष्टिवशात् in full at ॥९३॥. (The Khemrāj resetting has its own slip here, पादृष्टिवशात्, losing the प of पाप but keeping the i-mātrā — so both printings agree on दृष्टि.) The renderings had construed दृष्टि-वशात् all along; the mūla now carries it. karmavighnakaraḥ (masc. nom.) leaves the agent open — the afflicted graha that obstructs the work, or the native who obstructs work; English forces a subject where the Sanskrit and the Hindi do not. karma here is the 10th-bhāva sense: action, occupation.

  • About this edition: Two difficulties, both left standing rather than smoothed. (a) prabhu carries no case-ending in the e-text — read as prabhuḥ, 'a master', though the printing's spacing could also make it the first member of the following compound. (b) jvarita ('fevered, afflicted') is unexpected in a list of master/servants/affection and may be a transmission error; this is a single-witness e-text with no printing read against it, so it is rendered as it stands and not emended. dravyārjanasamarthaḥ matches sūtra 88's wording exactly.

  • About this edition: bahukṣetre stands in the LOCATIVE in the e-text, in the shape this text uses for conditions — but 'in many fields' is no condition a single graha can satisfy, and the series requires a result here; read as a result ('much land'), with kṣetra in its land-sense as at sūtra 81, not the sign-sense of sūtras 93 and 100. Flagged rather than emended: single witness. vāhaneśa, the lord of the vehicle-house, is the 4th lord; the identification is supplied.

Our source dropped the न, and the English and Hindi published here until 2026-09-08 asserted the opposite of the sūtra. vāhanayogena — by the combination for conveyances, i.e. the one just described in sūtra 101.

  • About this edition: Genuinely two-way. Sūtra 81 of this same chapter has the identical phrase bhāvādhipe balayute with no vā, where it reads as ONE condition, 'the lord of the bhāva being strong'; here the vā may split it into two ('joined with the lord of the bhāva, or endowed with strength') or may set the whole condition against the preceding sūtra. Rendered so as to hold both; the Hindi keeps the locatives and does not resolve it. devatāsiddhi = success in the worship of a deity, the māntric sense of siddhi.

  • About this edition: The syntax is loose as printed: vyādhinā stands in the instrumental and jalāt in the ablative, both hanging on no expressed verb. 'Happiness from water' is left as the Sanskrit has it — watery places, water-borne livelihood and water itself are all available and the sūtra chooses none. [2026-10-01: Siddhanāth Śarmā's edition prints जलाच्चासौख्यः, 'unhappiness from water', in both its settings, read by eye at about 2.8x native (1960 PDF p.33 l.12; 2018 PDF p.27 l.6), and its Hindi ṭīkā glosses जल से भय. Our text keeps जलाच्चसौख्यः, the reading of our e-text, which G. S. Kapoor's English renders 'happy at watery places'. Both are sound Sanskrit and nothing inside the text chooses, so the verse carries a doubt and the edition's form is on the ledger.]

  • About this edition: The e-text prints candreśāstra as one string; it divides candre śāstra-paraḥ. CONFIRMED FROM OUTSIDE 2026-09-08: the Sarvārtha Cintāmaṇi quotes this sūtra by number (भृगुसूत्र- २.३) and sets the division we reached by construal — चन्द्रे शास्त्रपरः, with candre standing apart and śāstraparaḥ as one word (adhyāya 9, printed p. २७५). The mūla is left as the source prints it, because a word-space is not a reading and this book records its source's joins as edition notes rather than repairing them.

धनी सुखी नृपालः मृदुवाक् बुद्धिरहितः मृदुगात्रः बली

dhanī sukhī nṛpālaḥ mṛduvāk buddhirahitaḥ mṛdugātraḥ balī

Wealthy, happy, a ruler of men, soft of speech, devoid of intelligence, soft-limbed, strong.

  • About this edition: buddhirahitaḥ is kept at its weight — 'devoid of intelligence', not a softened 'simple-minded' — though it sits oddly beside śāstra-paraḥ in sūtra 3. The e-text records no variant.

शुभदृष्टे बलवान्

śubhadṛṣṭe balavān

If aspected by a benefic, ⟨he is⟩ strong.

  • About this edition: vāgjālaka is literally 'one who spreads a net of speech'. Eloquence and verbal entanglement (i.e. a deceiver in speech) are both live senses; neither rendering resolves it.

लग्नेशे बलरहिते व्याधिमान्

lagneśe balarahite vyādhimān

If the lord of the lagna is devoid of strength, ⟨he is⟩ diseased.

  • About this edition: alpasantoṣī reads both ways — 'satisfied with little' and 'having little satisfaction, hard to content'. The Hindi keeps the compound and does not choose; the English had to.
  • About this edition: SOURCE DEFECT, recorded 2026-09-08 and NOT repaired: the e-text sets धनवान without its virāma. धनवान is not a word; the form is धनवान्, and the renderings take it so. Left standing because no printed witness for this sūtra has yet been read; the twin slip at 2.55 (पितृदीर्घयुः) WAS settled on a plate this pass and is corrected there. [2026-10-01: repaired. The mūla now reads धनवान्, corrected on the lexicon in the mūla-verification pass of 2026-10-01 (D8: the form without its virāma is no word); this note is kept as history.]

अष्टादशवर्षे राजद्वारेण सेनाधिपत्ययोगः

The join is our source's, not our tag-stripper's — the HTML has it too — and the mūla holds what the source prints. The reading is unaffected; the two words are एकेनैव and पूर्णचन्द्रेण.

अनेक विद्यावान्

चतुर्विंशतिवर्षे भाविरूपेण राजदण्डेन द्रव्यच्छेदः

caturviṃśativarṣe bhāvirūpeṇa rājadaṇḍena dravyacchedaḥ

  • About this edition: DECLARED CORRUPTION CLOSED 2026-09-08. bhāvirūpeṇa had been read tentatively as bhāvi-rūpeṇa, 'in the form of what is impending'; the Veṅkaṭeśvar printing sets भाविरूपेन with the long ū at ॥१६॥ (printed p. १७), so the word is bhāvi-rūpa and the construal stands. The printing's own final न for ण is its slip and is not carried in. The rest of the sūtra — the twenty-fourth year, royal punishment, loss of property — was never in doubt. [2026-10-01: the mūla now reads भाविरूपेण; this sentence names भाविरूपेन, the form our text carried before the mūla-verification pass of 2026-10-01 corrected it, and it is kept as history.]

राज्याभिषिक्तः अश्ववान् क्षीरसमृद्धिः धनधान्यसमृद्धिः मातृरोगी

rājyābhiṣiktaḥ aśvavān kṣīrasamṛddhiḥ dhanadhānyasamṛddhiḥ mātṛrogī

  • About this edition: In a fourth-bhāva sūtra (mother, milk) the plain sense is being nursed by a woman who is not the mother; the compound also bears a sexual reading, and the Hindi leaves both standing.

  • About this edition: kopavatī is feminine with no expressed subject: the wife of sūtra 25 is the nearer referent, the female deity the other. kvacit is both 'sometimes' and 'in some cases ⟨of nativity⟩'; the Hindi कहीं-कहीं holds both.

स्तनमध्येलाञ्छनं भवति

By force of conjunction with, or the aspect of, a malefic, ⟨he is⟩ capable of nigraha — of subduing and of punishing ⟨others⟩.

  • About this edition: nigraha carries both senses at once — holding down/restraining, and chastising — and the sūtra does not choose between them; the Hindi keeps the Sanskrit word and glosses both, the English names it and glosses both. īkṣaṇa is rendered 'aspect' per the dṛṣṭi row of the glossary.

पूर्णचन्द्रे बलवान् अन्नदानप्रीतिः अनेकबुधप्रसादैश्वर्यसम्पन्नः सत्कर्मकृत् भाग्यसमृद्धिः राजयोगी ज्ञानवान्

pūrṇacandre balavān annadānaprītiḥ anekabudhaprasādaiśvaryasampannaḥ satkarmakṛt bhāgyasamṛddhiḥ rājayogī jñānavān

When the Moon is full: ⟨he is⟩ strong; fond of giving food; endowed with the favour of many learned men and with lordly wealth; a doer of good works; abounding in fortune; possessed of rājayoga; possessed of knowledge.

  • About this edition: अनेकबुध — budha here is the common noun 'a wise/learned man', not the graha Mercury: 'many Mercuries' is not a possible reading, and aneka- forces the plural of persons. The glossary's बुध = Mercury row is therefore NOT applied to this compound. बलवान् is nominative and so predicates the native, not the Moon (contrast बलयुते, locative, at 44/45/54).

  • About this edition: The e-text spells पुर्ण for पूर्ण (purṇa for pūrṇa) — an obvious orthographic slip, not a variant word.

  • About this edition: पार्श्वनेत्रः is literally 'side-eyed'. It is left literal in both languages because the Sanskrit does not say whether a squint (a bodily mark) or a sidelong glance (a manner) is meant, and choosing one would invent a claim. द्वात्रिंशद्वर्षे = the 32nd year.

स्त्रीलोलः स्त्रीमूलेन ग्रन्थिशस्त्रादिपीडा

In its own sign ⟨or⟩ in its exaltation, long life; or if waning, middling life.

  • About this edition: svarkṣe = sva-ṛkṣe, in ⟨the Moon's⟩ own rāśi (Cancer). Standing under the 8th-bhāva rubric, the sūtra is about the length of life.

  • About this edition: bahuśruta is literally 'one by whom much has been heard' — learning acquired by śravana; the Hindi keeps the term and glosses it, the English has to settle for 'widely learned'.

तटाकगोपुरादिनिर्माण पुण्यकर्ता

taṭākagopurādinirmāṇa puṇyakartā

⟨He is⟩ a doer of meritorious works — the construction of tanks, temple gateways (gopura) and the like.

  • About this edition: putra-bhāgyavān can be read either as 'fortunate through/in respect of sons' or as 'having sons and fortune'; the compound is left open in both languages by keeping the relation loose.

  • About this edition: naṣṭa is 'perished, destroyed'; the plain sense here is that both parents die ⟨early⟩, and the harshness is not reduced to 'separated from'. The Hindi keeps नष्ट and glosses it, which lets the word stand at its own weight.

भावाधिपे बलयुते विशेषसत्कर्मसिद्धिः

  • About this edition: The e-text reads विशेस for विशेष (viśeṣa); read viśeṣa-satkarma-siddhiḥ / viśeṣāt karma-siddhiḥ — either way 'special success in action'. karma here is both 'deed' and the 10th bhāva. [2026-10-01: the mūla now reads विशेषसत्कर्मसिद्धिः, emended on the lexicon. Both printings set विशेस, read by eye at about 3.3x native (1960 p. २२, 2018 p. १६), so the e-text is faithful to them here; विशेस is no Sanskrit word, and the same formula at 5.47 is set with ष by both presses. The editor's ṭīkā glosses अधिक पवित्र कर्म, which keeps sat-karma whole, so the division is viśeṣa-satkarma-siddhiḥ.]

पापनिरीक्षिते पापयुते वा दुष्कृतिः

  • About this edition: The e-text reads निरिक्षिते for निरीक्षिते. The locative absolute carries on from sūtra 62, so the subject is still the lord of the bhāva. duṣkṛti is 'evil deed / wrongdoing' — not 'misfortune'. [2026-10-01: the mūla now reads निरीक्षिते, the form both printings set (1960 p. २२, 2018 p. १६), read by eye at about 3.3x native.]

  • About this edition: THE NUMBER IS FIFTY, corrected 2026-09-08 — it was published as fifteen. The Veṅkaṭeśvar printing reads पञ्चाशद्वर्षे at ॥६२॥ (= our 66), and its Hindi ṭīkā says ५० वर्षमें. The e-text's पञ्चादश is a corruption of पञ्चाशत् (50), not of पञ्चदश (15), and the corpus had read it as the latter. पुत्रर्ण resolves as putra + ṛṇa (a + ṛ → ar), so the pair is 'sons and debt'; the e-text writes the whole sūtra as one unbroken compound. The edition's ṭīkā construes the yoga as RELEASE from the putra-ṛṇa (५० वर्षमें पुत्रके ऋणसे छूटनेवाला हो); our rendering keeps the sūtra's own bare 'great strength of', which does not say release or burden.

  • About this edition: SOURCE DEFECT, recorded 2026-09-08 and NOT repaired: the e-text sets लाभेचन्द्रे with no word-space. The join is our source's, not our tag-stripper's — the HTML has it too — and the mūla holds what the source prints. The reading is unaffected; the two words are लाभे and चन्द्रे.

The word-space is the e-text's and is left as it prints it. nara-vāhana = one whose vehicle is men — the palanquin, a mark of rank.

  • About this edition: Under the rubric "Moon in the 12th from lagna" (vyaya). READING: the e-text prints कोपोद्भवव्यसन समृद्धिमान् with a space, but this e-text splits compounds arbitrarily (cf. बहुधन व्ययः in 68 and अन्न हीनः in this same sūtra), so it is read as one word, kopodbhava-vyasana-samṛddhimān — 'abounding in vices/calamities arising from anger'. Taken as a separate word, समृद्धिमान् would mean 'prosperous', which is the lone favourable item in an otherwise wholly adverse list and sits between two statements about want of food.

शुभयुते विद्वान् दयावान् पापशत्रुयुते पापलोकःशुभमित्रयुते श्रेष्ठलोकवान्

  • About this edition: loka here is the world attained hereafter — proper to the 12th bhāva, which this section is treating; it is not 'people'. शत्रु and मित्र are the grahas' natural enmity and friendship toward the Moon, not the 6th bhāva. The e-text runs पापलोकःशुभमित्रयुते together without a space and hyphenates पापशत्रुयुते-पापलोकः; both are typographic, not textual. [2026-10-01: the hyphen is gone; the mūla now reads पापशत्रुयुते पापलोकः, with one space, by the T44 ruling of that day (research/audits/hyphens/bhrigu-sutram-2026-10-01.json).]

  • About this edition: The subject throughout this chapter is Bhauma (Mars) — the chapter heading is भौमफलं, the results of Mars, and the sūtras carry the graha only by ellipsis. Sūtras 1–9 fall under the running rubric for the lagna (bhāva 1).

  • About this edition: चौरबुभूषकः is a desiderative formation (bubhūṣu, ‘wishing to become’) — literally ‘wishing to become a thief’, not ‘a thief’. सभानशौर्य is not securely readable: taken here as sa-bhāna-śaurya, ‘valour with lustre’; it can equally be read as a corruption of सभायां शौर्यम्, ‘valour in the assembly’. क्रूर here qualifies the native, not a graha, so it is rendered ‘cruel’ and not by the glossary's ‘malefic’. मूर्खः is the e-text's own reading and is kept at its weight. [2026-10-01: both printings set सभानशौर्यः as a separate word with the visarga, and the 1960 sets भ, not म (read by eye at about 2.8x native, 1960 PDF pp.40-41, 2018 PDF pp.33-34); the mūla now reads सभानशौर्यः, and बृहन्नाभिः with its visarga. In the 1960 the akṣara between चौर and भूषकः is a single letter carrying ु, read as बु as in the 2018; no न्ध was seen at about 2.8x, so the चौरबन्धुभूषकः this verse's ledger attributes to the Veṅkaṭeśvar printing is not on its PDF p.40.]

Aspected by a benefic, ⟨there is⟩ no blemish. ⟨He is⟩ without younger brothers.

  • About this edition: bhāva 3 of 12 — the source printing sets this sūtra under the unnumbered running rubric "लग्नात्तृतीये भौमफलं", which is structure and not sūtra text.
  • About this edition: NOT OUR SOURCE'S DEFECT, and that is the finding. The e-text sets न दोष without the visarga where it prints न दोषः at 1.12, 1.21, 1.24, 1.56, 1.62, 3.65, 7.16, 8.10 and 8.27 — but the Veṅkaṭeśvar printing sets शुभदृष्टे न दोष अनुजहीनः ॥१७॥ (printed p. २६) with the same bare दोष. Two witnesses agree, so this is the transmission's reading and not an encoding slip, and the mūla is left as it stands.

द्रव्यालाभः

dravyālābhaḥ

Non-gain of goods ⟨wealth⟩.

  • About this edition: THE E-TEXT LOST THE PRIVATIVE, corrected 2026-09-08 — this sūtra was published as its own opposite. The Veṅkaṭeśvar printing reads द्रव्यालाभः ॥१८॥ (dravya + alābha, non-gain), and its Hindi ṭīkā for the block closes तथा धनसे हीन होता है — 'and he is destitute of wealth'. The e-text's द्रव्यलाभः made it a gain. The surrounding sūtras of the Mars-in-the-3rd block (16 unchaste wife, 17 no younger siblings) run the same way.

राहुकेतुयुते वेश्यासङ्गमः

rāhuketuyute veśyāsaṅgamaḥ

⟨Mars⟩ joined with Rāhu ⟨or⟩ Ketu: consorting with harlots.

  • About this edition: The e-text prints ग्रहच्छिद्रम् (graha-cchidra, ‘a flaw of the graha’); the 4th-bhāva rubric under which it stands, and the idiom गृहच्छिद्र (‘a breach in the house’, domestic ruin), both require गृह-. Rendered as गृहच्छिद्रम् with the printed reading recorded here rather than silently emended. Sūtras 26–30 fall under the running rubric for the 4th bhāva from the lagna. [2026-10-01: the mūla now reads गृहच्छिद्रम्; this sentence names ग्रहच्छिद्रम्, the form our text carried before the mūla-verification pass of 2026-10-01 corrected it, and it is kept as history.]

  • About this edition: सौम्य is taken as the class-term ‘benefic’, matching शुभयुते in sūtras 23 and 30; it can also name Budha (Mercury) specifically, and the sūtra gives nothing that decides between them.

निरोगशरीरी क्षेत्रहीनः धनधान्यहीनः जीर्णगृहवासः

  • About this edition: The subject throughout is Mars (bhauma), carried over from the chapter's opening; the running rubric places this sūtra in the 4th bhāva, the house of the mother. मृत्यु here is read as the 8th house / its lord (the mṛtyu-sthāna); it can also be read attributively — 'a death-dealing malefic' — and the Sanskrit does not decide between them.

सौम्ययुते वाहन निष्ठावान्

बन्धुजनद्वेषी स्वदेशपरित्यागी वस्त्रहीनः

  • About this edition: किञ्चिदण्डकालः is not securely readable. Taken as kiñcid + aṇḍa-kālaḥ, 'some time/occasion of the testicles', i.e. injury to the genitals — but kāla carries no sense of 'wound', and a single lost द would give kiñcid daṇḍa-kālaḥ, 'some time of punishment', which would follow naturally on rājakopaḥ in sūtra 34. Both readings are recorded; neither is asserted. The number ṣaṣṭha (sixth year) is firm in the mūla. [2026-10-01: both printings set a consonant here that the e-text dropped, read by eye at about 3.8x-4.2x native (1960 p. (२९)) and about 3.0x native (2018 p. २०). The mūla now reads किञ्चिद्दण्डकालः, 'some time of punishment', on the plate and on the editor's ṭīkā, which machine reads of both printings give as दण्ड. The 2018 reset sets द्‌ग (गण्ड); that form is on the ledger, and the choice between दण्ड and गण्ड stays open as a doubt on this verse.]

दुर्वासन ज्ञानशीलवान्

  • About this edition: The e-text's space leaves दुर्वासन and ज्ञानशीलवान् as two separate results, and they are rendered so; read as one compound the sense would be 'of a nature that knows evil ways'. दुर्वासना (evil latent tendency) also bears the sense 'bad smell' — the Hindi keeps the word itself and so keeps both.

  • About this edition: saptaviṃśati varṣe — the twenty-seventh year, firm in the mūla. कन्यका in कन्यकाश्वादियुत is taken as part of what accompanies the marriage (a girl/maidservant, horses and so on, i.e. the dowry); it can also be read as the bride herself, 'he marries a maiden ⟨who comes⟩ with horses and the like'. The Hindi keeps कन्या in place and so keeps both readings open.

  • About this edition: Rendered at its weight; bhaga is the female organ here, as the 7th-bhāva sequence on sexual conduct (58–59) requires. The e-text prints भगचुम्बनवान for भगचुम्बनवान्.
  • About this edition: SETTLED ON THE PLATE 2026-09-08: the Veṅkaṭeśvar printing sets भगचुम्बनवान् with its virāma at ॥६०॥ of this chapter (printed p. ३१). The e-text prints भगचुम्बनवान without it. This is the word the text's provenance sentence used to locate wrongly at 'ch5 v60' and to call a missing visarga; both errors are corrected in the same pass.

  • About this edition: madyapānāpriyaḥ divides madyapāna-a-priyaḥ, 'to whom liquor-drinking is not dear'. Rendered as printed. A single vowel separates it from madyapāna-priyaḥ, 'fond of liquor', which is the sense the surrounding run of vices would lead one to expect; the e-text offers no variant and the negative is what stands. [2026-10-01: both printings of Siddhanāth Śarmā's text set मद्यपानप्रियः, read by eye at about 2.5x native (1960 p. ३१, 2018 p. २२), and his Hindi ṭīkā glosses it 'मद्य पान करनेमें आसक्त'. The mūla now reads मद्यपानप्रियः, 'fond of drinking liquor'; the e-text's मद्यपानाप्रियः is kept on the ledger as our exemplar's form.]

  • About this edition: tatra, 'there', points back to the running rubric — the 7th from the lagna. śatru here is an inimical graha, not the 6th bhāva (GLOSSARY notes the ambiguity). bahukalatra-nāśaḥ is the destruction of many wives, i.e. successive wives die; it can also be construed 'he has many wives, and their ruin'.
  • About this edition: SOURCE DEFECT, recorded 2026-09-08 and NOT repaired: the e-text sets तत्रशत्रुयुते with no word-space. The join is our source's, not our tag-stripper's — the HTML has it too — and the mūla holds what the source prints. The reading is unaffected; the two words are तत्र and शत्रुयुते.

avīraḥ ahaṅkārī vā śubhadṛṣṭe na doṣaḥ

⟨He is⟩ devoid of valour, or else arrogant; if aspected by a benefic, there is no blemish.

  • About this edition: bhāva 7 of 12 — the source printing sets this sūtra under the unnumbered running rubric "लग्नात्सप्तमे भौमफलं", which is structure and not sūtra text.
  • About this edition: avīra is 'without a hero's strength', answering vīraḥ at sūtra 44 of this chapter; 'sonless' and 'husbandless' are also live senses of the word and the sūtra does not choose. na doṣaḥ cancels the whole preceding run of 7th-house results, not this sūtra alone.

नेत्ररोगी अर्धायुः पित्ररिष्टं मूत्रकृच्छ्ररोगः

netrarogī ardhāyuḥ pitrariṣṭaṃ mūtrakṛcchrarogaḥ

⟨He suffers⟩ disease of the eyes; a half life-span; danger to the father; the disease of painful urination.

  • About this edition: The e-text prints मूत्रकृच्छृ (-kṛcchṛ-) for मूत्रकृच्छ्र (mūtrakṛcchra), strangury; the same slip recurs at sūtra 69 with मुत्र- for मूत्र-.
  • About this edition: TWO E-TEXT DEFECTS SETTLED ON THE PLATE 2026-09-08. (a) पित्रारिष्टं for पित्ररिष्टं: pitṛ + ariṣṭa gives pitr-ariṣṭa, not pitrā-. (b) कृच्छृ for कृच्छ्र: the e-text writes the vocalic-ṛ sign where the conjunct ्र belongs, so मूत्रकृच्छ्र ('strangury') came out as a non-word. The Veṅkaṭeśvar printing sets नेत्ररोगी अर्धायुः पित्ररिष्टं मूत्रकृच्छ्ररोगः ॥६६॥ (printed p. ३२).

अल्पपुत्रवान् वातशूलादिरोगः दारसुखयुतः

alpaputravān vātaśūlādirogaḥ dārasukhayutaḥ

⟨He has⟩ few sons; diseases of wind-colic and the like; ⟨he is⟩ endowed with happiness from his wife.

  • About this edition: The e-text prints मुनष्यादि (munaṣya-) for मनुष्यादि (manuṣya-); the syllables are transposed. 'Increase of men and the rest' is the household's people — dependants, servants, livestock — the ādi left open as the sūtra leaves it.
  • About this edition: SETTLED ON THE PLATE 2026-09-08: the e-text's मुनष्य is a metathesis of मनुष्य. The Veṅkaṭeśvar printing sets शुभयुते देहारोग्यम् दीर्घायु मनुष्यादिवृद्धिः ॥६८॥ (printed p. ३२). Word-spacing is left as the e-text prints it.

पापक्षेत्रे पापयुते ईक्षणवशाद् वातक्षयादिरोगः मूत्रकृच्छ्राधिक्यं वा

pāpakṣetre pāpayute īkṣaṇavaśād vātakṣayādirogaḥ mūtrakṛcchrādhikyaṃ vā

In a malefic's sign, joined with a malefic, or by force of ⟨a malefic's⟩ aspect: diseases of wind and wasting and the like, or an excess of painful urination.

  • About this edition: SETTLED ON THE PLATE 2026-09-08: the e-text's पूणोयुः is not a word. The Veṅkaṭeśvar printing sets भावाधिपबलयुते पूर्णायुः ॥७१॥ (printed p. ३२) — 'full lifespan', the counterpart of मध्यमायुः in the preceding sūtra.

पित्ररिष्टम्

  • About this edition: Rendered as it stands. dāra-ga is the standard word for adulterous resort, and gurudāraga names the classical grave offence (gurutalpaga). It sits oddly under an exaltation clause, which elsewhere in this chapter yields benefit (sūtra 39, ucce svakṣetre putrasamṛddhiḥ); the e-text records no variant and nothing here licenses a softer word.

  • About this edition: corabuddhiḥ is kept at its weight — a thief's mind, not 'shrewd'. karmavighnakaraḥ is active, one who makes the obstruction; whether the work obstructed is his own (as at sūtra 78) or another's, the sūtra does not say.

[2026-10-01: the mūla now reads पट्टाभिषेकवान्; this sentence names पट्टभिषेकवान्, the form our text carried before the mūla-verification pass of 2026-10-01 corrected it, and it is kept as history.]

  • About this edition: THE WORD-DIVISION WAS WRONG, corrected 2026-09-08. The e-text splits स्वगुणे राशुलाभवान्, and rāśu- is not a word; the note here had emended it to rāśi-lābhavān, 'gain by the heap'. The Veṅkaṭeśvar printing settles it differently and better: स्वगुणैराशुलाभवान् ॥८६॥ (printed p. ३५) = svaguṇaiḥ + āśu-lābhavān, 'by his own qualities, quick to gain'. svaguṇa is merit or accomplishment, not birth or patronage.

  • About this edition: bhrātṛ-vitta-vān holds both 'having brothers and wealth' and 'having wealth from ⟨his⟩ brothers'; the 11th bhāva owns elder siblings and gains alike, and the compound does not decide. The Hindi keeps the pairing undecided as the Sanskrit does.

  • About this edition: Continues the chapter's 12th-bhāva sequence for Mars (bhauma); the sūtra's own words are only the locative absolute pāpayute plus the predicate dāmbhikaḥ, so the subject (Mars) and the person judged (the native) are both supplied from the running rubric लग्नाद्द्वादशे भौमफलं and the neighbouring sūtras. dāmbhika = given to dambha — religious pretence, ostentation, hypocrisy; the Hindi keeps दाम्भिक, which holds the same span, where English must lean on one sense.

Adhyāya 4 · अथ तन्वादि द्वादश भावस्थित बुधफलमाह

  • About this edition: vivāhādi-bahuśrutavān taken as one compound — 'much-heard, i.e. well-informed, in the matters beginning with marriage' (the domestic rites). It may alternatively be split into two attributes, 'married, and much-heard'; the Hindi keeps the compound intact.

अनेकदेशे सार्वभौमः मन्त्रवादी पिशाचोच्चाटन समर्थः मृदुभाषी विद्वान् क्षमीदयावान्

anekadeśe sārvabhaumaḥ mantravādī piśācoccāṭana samarthaḥ mṛdubhāṣī vidvān kṣamīdayāvān

  • Where we differ: The Hindi previously stood as सद्गुणशाली। — the mūla's single word repeated verbatim, with only a daṇḍa added. It is a real Hindi word (tatsama), so nothing read as wrong; but the English supplies a copula (⟨He is⟩) and this chapter's own neighbours either unpack the compound into Hindi (v. 27 धनलाभवान् → धन का लाभ पाने वाला) or supply the copula in ⟨⟩ (v. 32 ⟨वह⟩ … ⟨होता है⟩). v. 28 alone did neither, leaving the Hindi reader the Sanskrit where the English reader got a sentence. Rendered in the chapter's own style. Found by scripts/translate/check-hindi.mjs on its first run over the corpus — the only finding in 29,904 fields.

  • About this edition: The sūtra gives only the locative bhāvādhipe with no qualifier attached to it; the contrast with the preceding sūtra's balayute supplies the missing condition (weakness), which is therefore bracketed as supplied and not asserted.

बलयुते भ्राता दीर्घायुः

  • About this edition: balayute stands as a locative absolute with no expressed subject; the running rubric is Mercury in the 3rd bhāva, so Mercury is the nearest antecedent — but the sūtra's own next-of-kin clauses elsewhere in this chapter (35, 39, 46) supply bhāvādhipa explicitly, and here it does not.

  • About this edition: hastacāpalya is literally 'unsteadiness of the hand'; set beside dhairyavān ('firm') in the same breath it may equally be nimbleness of hand rather than a fault. The Sanskrit does not choose and the Hindi is left as unresolved as the Sanskrit.

  • About this edition: The running rubric places this under Mercury in the 8th from lagna, so bhāvādhipa is the lord of that bhāva (the 8th, the house of āyus) — which is why the fruit stated is length of life. The identical opening at ch. 1.40 and 1.53 is rendered the same way ('the lord of the bhāva is endowed with strength'), there yielding the fruit of the 3rd and 5th respectively. It can also be read of the dispositor of Mercury; the Sūtra does not disambiguate.

अथवा उच्चस्वक्षेत्रे वा शुभयुते पूर्णायुः

  • About this edition: saṅgīta pāṭhakaḥ stands as two words in the e-text and can be read either as one compound ('a reciter/teacher of music') or as two epithets ('music; a reciter ⟨of texts⟩'); the Hindi keeps the compound undecided. dākṣiṇya is courtesy/obligingness, not liberality with money — the wealth term in this list is bahulābhavān. The father's long life belongs here because the sūtra falls under the 9th, the bhāva of the father; compare ch. 1.84, धार्मिकः अल्पभाग्यः पितृद्वेषी … स्वोच्चे स्वक्षेत्रे तस्य पिता दीर्घायुः.

⟨If Mercury is⟩ in exaltation or in its own sign ⟨and⟩ joined with Jupiter — a performer of many rites, the agniṣṭoma and the like.

  • About this edition: bhāva 10 of 12 — the source printing sets this sūtra under the unnumbered running rubric "लग्नाद्दशमे बुधफलं", which is structure and not sūtra text.
  • About this edition: The agniṣṭoma is the model soma sacrifice; ādi ('and the like') extends it to the śrauta rites generally, so bahukarma here is sacrificial action, not undertakings in general — the 10th bhāva's karma read in its ritual sense.

अरिपापयुते मूढकर्मविघ्नवान् दुष्कृतिः अनाचारः

aripāpayute mūḍhakarmavighnavān duṣkṛtiḥ anācāraḥ

⟨If Mercury is⟩ in an enemy's sign or joined with a malefic — beset by obstacles in ⟨his⟩ deluded undertakings, an evil-doer, without right conduct.

  • About this edition: anācāraḥ is 'without right conduct' as at ch. 1.95; the sūtra is the dark counterpart of 69 and is left at its own weight — duṣkṛtiḥ is an evil-doer, not merely one who errs.

बहुमङ्गलप्रदः

bahumaṅgalapradaḥ

⟨Mercury there⟩ bestows much auspiciousness.

  • About this edition: ekonaviṃśati = 19; varṣād upari is 'from that year onward', an open-ended span, not a single year as in 68. kṣetra here is LAND — it stands in a list with sons and wealth — although the same word means 'sign' three sūtras later (75 svakṣetre); the Hindi keeps क्षेत्र and glosses it.

पापर्क्षे पापयुते हीनमूलेन धनलोपः

pāparkṣe pāpayute hīnamūlena dhanalopaḥ

⟨If Mercury is⟩ in a malefic's sign ⟨and⟩ joined with a malefic — loss of wealth through base sources.

  • About this edition: mūla ('root') is the SOURCE of income, and the chapter uses it three times as a graded set: hīna-mūla base sources (74), śubha-mūla auspicious sources (75), dharma-mūla religious grounds (80) — all in the instrumental, naming the channel by which money comes or goes. pāparkṣe = pāpa + ṛkṣa, a malefic's sign.

  • About this edition: vitaraṇa is distributing/bestowing and śālin 'given to it'. Placed in the 12th, the bhāva of outgo, the trait is the benign face of expenditure — the same axis that 80 names as dharma-mūla.

पापयुते चञ्चलचित्तः

  • About this edition: dveṣin is active — 'hating' — as the text's other compounds in -dveṣin are taken (ch. 1.11 jñānadveṣī, 1.69 strīdveṣī, 1.84 pitṛdveṣī); a passive sense ('hated by the king and the people') would need dveṣya. Whether nṛpa-jana is 'the king and the people' or 'the king's people' the sūtra does not settle, and the Hindi leaves it open.

शुभयुतेन धर्ममूलेन धनव्ययः

śubhayutena dharmamūlena dhanavyayaḥ

⟨If⟩ joined with a benefic — expenditure of wealth on religious grounds.

  • About this edition: śubhayutena is instrumental where the chapter's parallel protases are locative (śubhayute, 63); it has been drawn into the case of the mūla-phrase beside it. The sūtra is not a misfortune: in the 12th, the bhāva of expenditure, spending on dharma is the auspicious outcome.

विद्याहीनः

vidyāhīnaḥ

⟨He is⟩ devoid of learning.

  • About this edition: Rendered as at ch. 2.11 (pāpayute vidyāhīnaḥ). It stands in flat contradiction to 76 jñānavān only if both are read unconditionally; in this chapter's habit each sūtra continues the nearest stated condition, and 81 follows the malefic-conditioned run of 78–79.

⟨He is⟩ fickle of mind, of middling lifespan, sonless, one who abandons his own people, ungrateful, arrogant, at enmity with many, given to roaming, and one who reaps the affliction of sin.

धनवान् बुद्धिमान् इष्टभाषी षोडशवर्षे धनधान्यसमृद्धिः बहुप्राबल्यवान् उच्चस्वक्षेत्रे धनुषि द्रव्यवान्

dhanavān buddhimān iṣṭabhāṣī ṣoḍaśavarṣe dhanadhānyasamṛddhiḥ bahuprābalyavān uccasvakṣetre dhanuṣi dravyavān

नीचक्षेत्रे पापयुते मद्यपानी भ्रष्टः

  • About this edition: REFUSAL LIFTED 2026-09-08 — the datum is now read off a printed page. The e-text's अष्टशत्रिन्द्वर्षे is a metathesis; the Khemrāj resetting sets अष्टत्रिंसद्वर्षे यात्रासिद्धिः ॥१५॥ (printed p. ३१), and the Veṅkaṭeśvar printing sets the same word with a further loss, अष्टत्रिंद्वर्षे (printed p. ४८). THE YEAR IS THE THIRTY-EIGHTH and the brackets are gone. The mūla takes the Khemrāj reading, which is the best-attested; the classical spelling is अष्टत्रिंशद्वर्षे (aṣṭatriṃśat, with श), and the printing's स for श is that printing's own orthography. It is recorded here rather than emended in, because this text's mūla holds a witnessed reading and not a conjectured one. [2026-10-01: both plates re-read by eye. The 2018 reset sets स (अष्टत्रिंसद्वर्षे), at about 3.0x native, and it sits on printed p. ३४, not ३१. The 1960 sets अष्टत्रिंद्वर्षे on p. ४८, at about 2.5x native. The OCR and the Gemini reads give the same editor's numeral त्रिंशद् with श everywhere else in the book, so the स is a slip at this sūtra and not that printing's orthography; that last point rests on those machine reads, not on a plate. The mūla is emended to अष्टत्रिंशद्वर्षे on the lexicon, and the printed forms are on the ledger.]

  • About this edition: The e-text reads विद्यवान् for विद्यावान्. धनेशः stands loose in the string: taken here as an attribute of the native (master of wealth); it could also be read as the lord of the 2nd bhāva, but no result is attached to it and no condition follows, so that reading is not adopted. [2026-10-01: the mūla now reads विद्यावान्; this sentence names विद्यवान्, the form our text carried before the mūla-verification pass of 2026-10-01 corrected it, and it is kept as history.]

If the lord of the bhāva is devoid of strength, ⟨and Jupiter is⟩ joined with Rāhu, Ketu, Saturn or Mars — or by the aspect of a malefic — another wife.

The join is our source's, not our tag-stripper's — the HTML has it too — and the mūla holds what the source prints. The reading is unaffected; the words are पापवीक्षणाद् वा कलत्रान्तरम्.

  • About this edition: The e-text separates ब्राह्मण स्त्री सम्भोगी and गर्भिणी सङ्गमी as loose words; read as two compounds. The charge is stated at full weight — both items name transgressions the text is condemning, and softening them ('association with women') would erase what it says.

Adhyāya 6 · अथ तन्वादिद्वादश भावस्थित भृगुफलमाह

  • About this edition: The sūtra is a bare predicate; the subject comes from the running rubric — Bhṛgu (Śukra) in the lagna — which is structure, not sūtra text, so the supplied subject is bracketed. gaṇitaśāstra is the calculational science, mathematics and astronomy together.

दीर्घायुः दारप्रियः वस्त्रालङ्कारप्रियः रूपलावण्यप्रियः गुणवान्

dīrghāyuḥ dārapriyaḥ vastrālaṅkārapriyaḥ rūpalāvaṇyapriyaḥ guṇavān

  • About this edition: asta here is a graha's own condition — setting, i.e. combustion — and not the 7th house, because the locative nīcāstagate governs Śukra itself; the glossary's 'asta = 7th house' row is a Ṣaṭpañcāśikā usage. cora-vañcanavān is left at full weight: a thief and a deceiver.

  • About this edition: SETTLED ON THE PLATE 2026-09-08. The e-text read बृह द्विद्विजो — broken across a word-space with a doubled द्वि — and the note here restored बृहद्द्विजः independently. The Veṅkaṭeśvar printing confirms the word: बृहद्द्विजौ भवति ॥८॥ (printed p. ५६). The mūla takes बृहद्द्विजो, the sandhi form of बृहद्द्विजः before भवति; the printing's ौ is one mātrā too many for a singular verb and is recorded here rather than carried in. dvija means both 'tooth' and 'twice-born (brāhmaṇa)', so the sūtra may equally read 'he becomes an eminent brāhmaṇa'. The Hindi keeps both senses; the English had to choose, and took the bodily sense because sūtras 5 and 7 in the same run describe the body.

वाहने शुभयुते गजान्तैश्वर्यवान्

vāhane śubhayute gajāntaiśvaryavān

⟨A benefic⟩ joined in the vāhana ⟨the 4th house, of conveyances⟩: he possesses gajānta wealth — affluence reaching to elephants.

  • About this edition: TWO NON-WORDS CORRECTED 2026-09-08. रन्धरे is not a word — the 8th bhāva is रन्ध्र, and this same text spells it correctly at 7.20 रन्ध्रेशयुक्ते; and अष्ठ is not a numeral, अष्ट is. The Veṅkaṭeśvar printing reads रन्ध्रे … at ॥११॥ (printed p. ५६) and confirms both. That printing carries a SHORTER lordship list there — अष्टव्ययाधिपे, the 8th and 12th only, without षष्ठ — which is recorded in this chapter's discrepancies[] and not adopted: our source's fuller list is not obviously secondary. The run-together …अधिपेशुक्रे is the e-text's and is left as it prints it. The count — two — is the sūtra's own (strī-dvayam).

  • About this edition: bhāva 3 begins here (sūtras 20–22). sahodara is the same-womb brother specifically, against the wider bhrātṛ of the preceding clause — the sūtra grants increase of brothers and then takes the co-uterine ones away; that reversal is the sūtra's own and is not smoothed.

krameṇa bhrātṛtatparaḥ vittabhogaparaḥ

In due order: devoted to his brothers, ⟨then⟩ given to the enjoyment of wealth.

  • About this edition: krameṇa is 'in order, in succession' — it may mark either a sequence in time or simply the order of the two predicates; both renderings keep it adverbial.

भावाधिपे बलयुते उच्चस्वक्षेत्रे भ्रातृवृद्धिः दुःस्थाने पापयुते भ्रातृनाशः

bhāvādhipe balayute uccasvakṣetre bhrātṛvṛddhiḥ duḥsthāne pāpayute bhrātṛnāśaḥ

If the lord of the bhāva is joined with strength and in exaltation or in its own sign — increase of brothers; in a duḥsthāna (an evil house) and joined with a malefic — destruction of brothers.

  • About this edition: ari here is the enemy's SIGN, not the 6th house — it stands beside nīca in one compound of dignities (the glossary flags exactly this ambiguity). kṣetra occurs twice in the sūtra in two senses: a graha's sign, and land — the last word denies him land and conveyance.
  • About this edition: SOURCE DEFECT, recorded 2026-09-08 and NOT repaired: the e-text sets तत्रपापयुते with no word-space.

  • About this edition: The e-text splits यौवनदार पुत्रवान्; read यौवने दारपुत्रवान्. dṛśvā stands for the perfect participle dṛśvan, 'one who has seen'. That the first clause means he lives to see his mother's mother is the plainest reading of the words as they stand, but the clause is loosely joined and the reading is not certain — flagged rather than smoothed.

राजसन्मानी मन्त्री सुज्ञः स्त्रीप्रसन्नतावृद्धिः

rājasanmānī mantrī sujñaḥ strīprasannatāvṛddhiḥ

Honoured by the king; a minister; well-informed; ⟨there is⟩ increase of the goodwill of women.

तत्रपापयुते पापक्षेत्रे अरिनीचगे बुद्धिजाड्ययुतः पुत्राशः

tatrapāpayute pāpakṣetre arinīcage buddhijāḍyayutaḥ putrāśaḥ

There ⟨in the 5th⟩, joined with a malefic, in a malefic's sign, or gone to an enemy's ⟨sign⟩ or to debilitation — ⟨he is⟩ afflicted with dullness of intellect; a son ⟨remains⟩ a mere hope.

अपात्रव्ययकारी मायावादी रोगवान् आर्यपुत्रवान्

When the lord of the bhāva is joined with strength — increase of enemies and of kinsmen; ⟨when it is⟩ joined with an enemy ⟨graha⟩ or with a malefic, placed in debilitation, ⟨or when⟩ the lord of the bhāva is placed with the Moon (indu) — destruction of enemies and of kinsmen.

  • About this edition: भावेशेन्दुस्थे is read as bhāveśa + indu-sthe, ‘the bhāva-lord placed with the Moon’; it could also be read ‘the bhāva-lord placed in the Moon's sign ⟨Karka⟩’, and the sūtra's compression does not decide between them. शत्रुज्ञातिर्द्धिः = śatru-jñāti-ṛddhiḥ, the ṛddhi (prosperity) of enemies AND kinsmen together — the same pair that is destroyed in the second half. [2026-10-01: both printings of Siddhanāth Śarmā set शत्रुज्ञातिर्द्धिः, read by eye at about 2.5x (1960 Veṅkaṭeśvara printed p.61, 2018 Khemrāj printed p.43). That is no regular form: ज्ञाति + ऋद्धि would give ज्ञात्यृद्धि. The mūla is emended on the lexicon to शत्रुज्ञातिवृद्धिः, as at 5.32 ज्ञातिवृद्धिः and in the editor's own Hindi gloss वृद्धि. The reading as ṛddhi above is superseded.]

अतिकामुकः मुखचुम्बकः

  • About this edition: सत्प्रधान जनबन्धुकलत्रः is printed as two words in the e-text and admits more than one division: taken here as sat-pradhāna-jana-bandhu-kalatraḥ, ‘whose wife's kin are good and leading people’; it could also be divided ‘whose wife and kin are chief among the good’. The sūtra holds paradāra-rata and strī-dveṣī side by side without reconciling them; both are kept as they stand.

पापयुते शत्रुक्षेत्रे अरिनीचगे कलत्रनाशः

⟨He is⟩ learned, possessed of much wealth, a gainer of land, compassionate; when ⟨Venus is⟩ joined by a benefic, ⟨there is⟩ a yoga of many vehicles.

  • About this edition: bhāva 11 of 12 — the source printing sets this sūtra under the unnumbered running rubric "लग्नादेकादशे भृगुफलं", which is structure and not sūtra text.
  • About this edition: Bhāva 11 of 12. aneka qualifies vāhana (cf. 6.57 anekavāhanārohaṇavān), so 'a yoga of many vehicles', not 'many vāhana-yogas'; the e-text's word-space in अनेक वाहनयोगः is the printing's, not a compound break.

पापयुते पापमूलाद्धनलाभः

pāpayute pāpamūlāddhanalābhaḥ

When ⟨Venus is⟩ joined by a malefic, ⟨there is⟩ gain of wealth from a sinful source.

  • About this edition: Bhāva 11 of 12. pāpa-mūla puns on pāpa-yuta of the same line: the 'root' is at once the malefic graha and wicked means. English must pick — 'sinful source' — where the Hindi पापमूल keeps both readings open.

शुभयुते शुभमूलात् नीचर्क्षे पापरन्ध्रेशादि योगे लाभहीनः

śubhayute śubhamūlāt nīcarkṣe pāparandhreśādi yoge lābhahīnaḥ

When ⟨Venus is⟩ joined by a benefic, ⟨the gain comes⟩ from an auspicious source; ⟨but⟩ in a sign of debilitation, or in conjunction with a malefic, the lord of the 8th ⟨randhra⟩ and the like, ⟨he is⟩ devoid of gain.

  • About this edition: Bhāva 11 of 12. dhanalābha is carried over by ellipsis from 6.63. The e-text prints शुभमुलात् with a short u for śubhamūlāt. nīcarkṣe = nīca-ṛkṣa, the sign of debilitation; randhra is the 8th bhāva, rendered by its number per the glossary's house-synonym rule. lābha-hīna also plays on lābha as the name of this very (11th) bhāva. [2026-10-01: the mūla now reads शुभमूलात्; this sentence names शुभमुलात्, the form our text carried before the mūla-verification pass of 2026-10-01 corrected it, and it is kept as history.]

  • About this edition: Bhāva 12 of 12 — the sūtra is a single word; śukra in the 12th and the native as subject are both supplied from the running rubric and the chapter's frame.

पापयुते विषयलुब्धपरः

pāpayute viṣayalubdhaparaḥ

When ⟨Venus is⟩ joined by a malefic, ⟨he is⟩ given over to greed for sense-objects.

  • About this edition: Bhāva 12 of 12. viṣaya-lubdha-paraḥ: -para adds 'wholly intent on' to the greed, so the fault is stated twice over; the Hindi विषय holds both 'sense-objects' and 'worldly things'.

शुभयुक्तश्चेत् बहुधनवान्

śubhayuktaścet bahudhanavān

If ⟨Venus is⟩ joined by a benefic, ⟨he is⟩ possessed of much wealth.

  • About this edition: Bhāva 12 of 12. The conditional is explicit here (śubhayuktaścet, with cet), where the neighbouring sūtras use the bare locative śubhayute; yukta and yuta are rendered alike as 'joined' per the glossary.

शय्याखट्वाङ्गादिसौख्यवान् शुभलोकप्राप्तिः पापयुते नरकप्राप्तिः

śayyākhaṭvāṅgādisaukhyavān śubhalokaprāptiḥ pāpayute narakaprāptiḥ

⟨He is⟩ possessed of the comforts of bed, bedstead and the like; ⟨there is⟩ attainment of an auspicious world ⟨after death⟩; when joined by a malefic, ⟨there is⟩ attainment of hell.

  • About this edition: Bhāva 12 of 12 — the 12th is the bhāva of śayyā-sukha, bed-comfort, which fixes khaṭvāṅga here as the bedstead/its post rather than Śiva's skull-club. śubha-loka / naraka are the worlds attained after death; 'after death' is supplied, the destination is not. The hell is the sūtra's own word and is left standing.

Adhyāya 7 · अथ तन्वादिद्वादश भावस्थित शनिफलमाह

  • About this edition: The sūtra is a single compound and names neither the graha nor the bhāva; both come from the edition's running rubric (Saturn in the 1st). vāta and pitta are the humours, kept untranslated.

उच्चे पुरग्रामाधिपः धनधान्य समृद्धिः

  • About this edition: SETTLED ON THE PLATE 2026-09-08, on three independent grounds. Both printings read शुभदृष्टे निवृत्तिः ॥७॥ (Veṅkaṭeśvar printed p. ६६; Khemrāj printed p. ६२), and the Veṅkaṭeśvar Hindi ṭīkā glosses the pair शुभग्रहकी दृष्टिसे भिक्षुक न हो — 'by a benefic's aspect he is not a beggar'. Our own 1.109 शुभदृष्टियुते निवृत्तिः and 8.19 गण्डनिवृत्तिः use the same abstract in the same construction, and 3.12 / 3.53 use the parallel परिहारः. The earlier note built two readings to rescue a masculine निवृत्तः that is not in either printing; it was careful reasoning around a dropped mātrā.

द्रव्याभावः दारद्वयम्

Word-spacing is not a reading and the mūla holds what the source prints; the two words are तत्र and पापयुते.

  • About this edition: avarohī is literally 'descending, dismounting'; under the 4th bhāva (conveyances) the sense is that such conveyances are his to alight from. Other transmissions of this sūtra read ārohī, 'mounting', which gives the same gift more plainly — the e-text's reading is kept and not corrected. āndola is a swing or swinging litter.

  • About this edition: manda = Saturn (glossary). The sūtra reverses 14's loss of the mother when the same graha owns the lagna.
  • About this edition: SETTLED ON THE PLATE 2026-09-08: the Veṅkaṭeśvar printing reads लग्नेशे मन्दे मातृदीर्घायुः ॥१८॥ (printed p. ६७). The e-text's मातृदीर्घयुः, short a for ā in āyus, is the same slip it makes at 2.55 (पितृदीर्घयुः), which is corrected in the same pass. The run-together लग्नेशेमन्दे is the e-text's and is left as it prints it; the printing sets the two words apart.

  • About this edition: sukha is also the standing name of the 4th bhāva, so this can equally be read 'harm to the 4th house'; the Hindi सुख की हानि holds both. It repeats the saukhyahāniḥ of 15 without the e-text stating the changed condition.

पुत्रहीनः अतिदरिद्री दुर्वृत्तः दत्तपुत्री

  • About this edition: Read as bhaṅgayogāt kvacit saukhya[ṃ] kvacid yogabhaṅgaḥ; the e-text runs it as one unbroken compound and saukhya lacks its expected ending. kvacit … kvacit is 'in one case … in another' and may be taken of periods of life or of different charts; the Sanskrit does not decide, and neither rendering does. [2026-10-01: the mūla now reads सौख्यं, with the anusvāra this note found missing, corrected on the lexicon in the mūla-verification pass of 2026-10-01; this sentence is kept as history.]

रन्ध्रेशे मन्दे अरिष्टं वातरोगी शूलव्रणदेही

When Saturn, ⟨being⟩ lord of the randhra (the 8th house), ⟨stands in the 6th⟩ — ⟨there is⟩ calamity (ariṣṭa); ⟨the native⟩ is a sufferer from wind-diseases, ⟨his⟩ body ⟨marked⟩ with colic and ulcers.

  • About this edition: randhra = the 8th house; this house-synonym is not yet in GLOSSARY.md and is forced here. The section rubric places the sūtra under Saturn in the 6th, so the condition is Saturn — himself the 8th lord — standing in the 6th; the '⟨in the 6th⟩' is supplied from that rubric, which is structure and not sūtra text. manda could in bare grammar be read adjectivally ('when the 8th lord is weak'), but in a chapter wholly about Saturn manda is the graha (GLOSSARY: arki/manda/saura/śanaiścara = Saturn). The Hindi keeps रन्ध्रेश and मन्द so both readings stay visible.

शरीरदोषकरः कृशकलत्रः वेश्यासम्भोगवान् अतिदुःखी उच्चस्वक्षेत्रगते अनेकस्त्रीसम्भोगी

śarīradoṣakaraḥ kṛśakalatraḥ veśyāsambhogavān atiduḥkhī uccasvakṣetragate anekastrīsambhogī

⟨Saturn in the 7th⟩ produces a defect in the body; ⟨the native's⟩ wife is emaciated; he takes his pleasure with courtesans; ⟨he is⟩ exceedingly wretched. When ⟨Saturn⟩ has gone to exaltation or to his own sign (svakṣetra), ⟨he⟩ enjoys many women.

  • About this edition: ari here is 'an enemy['s sign]', not the 6th house — the distinction the GLOSSARY row ari/ripu/śatru requires be noted. bhāvādhipa in this section is the lord of the 8th house.

कष्टान्नभोगी

kaṣṭānnabhogī

patitaḥ jīrṇoddhārakaraḥ ekonacatvāriṃśadvarṣe taṭākagopuranirmāṇakarttā

⟨Saturn in the 9th:⟩ fallen ⟨from his dharma⟩; a restorer of what has fallen into ruin; in the thirty-ninth year, a builder of tanks and temple-towers (gopura).

  • About this edition: ekona-catvāriṃśat = 40 − 1 = 39; the year is checked against the mūla, not against the other rendering. taṭāka = a tank or reservoir; gopura = a temple gateway-tower. patita is 'fallen, outcaste' and is not softened.

बहुधनी विघ्नकरः भूमिलाभः राजपूजकः

bahudhanī vighnakaraḥ bhūmilābhaḥ rājapūjakaḥ

⟨Saturn in the 11th:⟩ possessed of much wealth; a maker of obstacles; gain of land; a worshipper of the king.

  • About this edition: vighnakara is agentive — 'one who makes obstacles' (for others), not 'one who meets them'; rendered as the form stands. rājapūjaka is likewise agentive, 'one who honours the king', and is NOT rājapūjita, 'honoured by the king' — the softer and commoner claim.

Adhyāya 8 · अथ तन्वादिद्वादश भावस्थित राहुकेत्वोः फलमाह

  • About this edition: mṛtaprasūti is a two-way compound and the sūtra gives nothing to decide it: either ⟨the native's⟩ offspring are born dead, or the native is himself born of a mother whose earlier deliveries died. English is left on the first sense; the Hindi keeps the compound itself, which holds both.

मेषवृषभकर्कराशिस्थे दयावान्

meṣavṛṣabhakarkarāśisthe dayāvān

⟨If they stand⟩ in the signs Meṣa, Vṛṣabha or Karka, ⟨he is⟩ compassionate.

  • About this edition: The three rāśis are certain; the predicate is not. द्यावान् as printed can only be construed from द्यु/द्यो ‘sky, brightness’ — ‘possessed of radiance’ — and that is what is rendered. Two ordinary words lie one akṣara away and either could be the underlying reading: दयावान् ‘compassionate’ (loss of the अ-mātrā) and द्रव्यवान् ‘wealthy’. Nothing in the e-text decides between them; the rendering is flagged rather than chosen silently.
  • About this edition: SETTLED ON THE PLATE 2026-09-08: the Veṅkaṭeśvar printing reads मेषवृषभकर्कराशिस्थे दयावान् ॥२॥ (printed p. ७३), and its Hindi ṭīkā says दयालु होता है. The e-text's द्यावान् is not a word — a lost vowel between द and य.

  • About this edition: This chapter uses अशुभ here and पाप at 6 and 18; the two are kept apart in translation (glossary: अशुभ = inauspicious, पाप = malefic) rather than flattened to one word.
  • About this edition: A WORD WAS MISSING FROM OUR SOURCE, restored 2026-09-08. The Veṅkaṭeśvar printing reads अशुभे शुभदृष्टे मुखलाञ्छनी ॥४॥ (printed p. ७३), and its Hindi ṭīkā spells the pairing out: राहु केतुको शुभ अथवा पाप ग्रह देखते हों तो मुखमें चिह्नवाला होता है — either kind of aspect gives the mark. Our source's अशुभे दृष्टे dropped शुभ and so lost the sūtra's point, which is that the result follows EITHER way.

निर्धनः देहव्याधिः पुत्रशोकः श्यामवर्णः

  • About this edition: Four named crops, kept named rather than generalised to ‘grain’: niṣpāva is the flat/lablab bean, kodrava the kodo millet (Paspalum scrobiculatum). The e-text’s मुद्रक stands for मुद्ग (mung); the र is the printing’s, not the word’s. [2026-10-01: neither printing of Siddhanāth Śarmā sets a र here. The 1960 Veṅkaṭeśvara p.73 sets the ligature द्ग and the 2018 Khemrāj p.52 sets मुद्‍ग, read by eye at about 5.0x native. The mūla now reads मुद्गकोद्रव.]

  • About this edition: sevaka is both ‘a servant’ and ‘one who lives by service’; English must pick a noun, so the second sense is bracketed. The Hindi सेवक holds both without choosing. The closing पापयुते निश्चयेन is placed last in the sūtra and most naturally governs मातृक्लेश, but its scope over the whole list is not excluded; the word order is kept so a reader can see the question.

  • About this edition: nāśa is rendered at its weight (glossary), not softened to ‘loss’. gulma is the āyurvedic disease-name — an abdominal or splenic swelling — and is kept as a term rather than translated into a modern diagnosis. The e-text’s द्वितिये is for द्वितीये; the sense is unaffected. [2026-10-01: the mūla now reads द्वितीये; this sentence names द्वितिये, the form our text carried before the mūla-verification pass of 2026-10-01 corrected it, and it is kept as history.]

  • About this edition: gaṇḍa carries three senses — a boil or swelling, the cheek, and a point of peril. ‘Arising’ here and ‘cessation’ in the next sūtra make a bodily swelling the reading the pair supports; the Hindi keeps गण्ड itself so the other senses are not shut out.

  • About this edition: The three numbers are 45 (pañcacatvāriṃśat) and 60 (ṣaṣṭi), against the 32 of sūtra 22 — checked against the mūla, not against each other. वा stands after षष्टिवर्षाणि and so offers sixty years as the alternative outcome, which is why ‘instead’ renders it; it is not joining बलयुते to स्वोच्चे.
  • About this edition: SOURCE DEFECT, recorded 2026-09-08 and NOT repaired: the e-text sets षष्टिवर्षाणिवा with no word-space. The join is our source's, not our tag-stripper's — the HTML has it too — and the mūla holds what the source prints. The reading is unaffected; the two words are षष्टिवर्षाणि and वा.

पुत्रहीनः शूद्रस्त्रीसम्भोगी सेवकः धर्महीनः

  • About this edition: vyasana is two-way — a consuming devotion or a vice — and the sūtra does not grade it; ‘given over to’ keeps English from settling it, and the Hindi व्यसन holds both. kāvya is taken as poetry, the natural sense in a tenth-bhāva (karma) clause; it is also an epithet of Śukra, which nothing here calls for.

  • About this edition: A single-word sūtra, a bahuvrīhi (alpa-putraḥ, "one whose sons are few") predicated of the native; the subject and verb are supplied. It stands under the running rubric लग्नाद्द्वादशे राहुकेत्वोः फलं — Rāhu and Ketu in the 12th from the lagna — and answers सूत्र 29 of the same chapter, पुत्रैः समृध्दः ("rich in sons"), given for the 11th two rubrics earlier; the text is running the 11th/12th contrast deliberately. पुत्र is kept as "sons" in both renderings rather than widened to "children": the Hindi सन्तान would have resolved a specificity the Sanskrit keeps.

  • About this edition: पापगतिः is two-way — gati is both the course a man takes (so: of evil ways, evil conduct) and the destination he goes to after death (so: he comes to an evil end / an evil world hereafter). The Hindi keeps पापगति undivided; the English "his course is evil" is chosen because it carries some of the same double reading. The second sense is the better-supported one here: the immediately preceding 12th-bhāva block of the same text, in the Saturn chapter, reads शुभयुते सुखी सुनेत्रः पुण्यलोकप्राप्तिः ॥ ५१॥ / पापयुते नरक प्राप्तिः ॥ ५२॥ — pairing the sound eye with the attainment of the meritorious worlds, and the malefic association with the attainment of hell. This sūtra pairs the diseased eye with पापगति in exactly that frame, which is a settled 12th-house idiom in the text and not a coincidence of wording. Left unresolved in the translation line rather than decided for the reader. The final sūtra of the text; the colophon इति भृगुसूत्राणि समाप्ता follows it.
