Verse 13 – Strength of Trikona and Kendra Lords
श्लोक:
केन्द्रत्रिकोणालयपाः शुभप्रदाः
सोग्रा मिथोऽन्त्यार्थं गता न शोभनाः ।
परभुः सवक्षितो बली
यद्भेऽस्ति तत्पुष्टिरनीचशत्रुगः ॥१३॥
Translation & Explanation:
- Lords of
Kendra (1, 4, 7, 10) and Trikona (5, 9) are inherently benefic.
- But if
these planets are malefic by nature and are placed in 2nd and 12th
from each other (mutual dwirdvādaśa), they lose their beneficence.
- The lord of
the ascendant (lagneśa), when strong (not in debilitation/enemy sign) and
associated/aspected by benefics, enhances the house it is placed in.
- However, if
debilitated, in enemy sign, or afflicted by malefics, it gives
inauspicious results.
Simplified Insight:
- Kendra and
Trikona lords are good unless they are in mutual 2nd/12th and associated
with malefics.
- The
ascendant lord is key; if strong and supported, it uplifts the chart. If
weak or afflicted, it brings suffering.
