भावों का वल (Strength of Houses):
भावादखेटाद् ग्रहयुक्त भावो ज्यायान् सखेटादधिकग्रहाढ्यः।
चरस्थिरद्वन्द्वगृहाः सवीर्याः साम्ये खर्गर्भावबलं किलेत्थम् ॥१॥
A house without any planet is generally weaker than a
house occupied by a planet.
Among occupied houses, a house with more planets is
considered stronger.
If two houses have an equal number of planets, the house
in a movable sign (चर राशि) is weaker than one in a fixed
sign (स्थिर राशि), and the house in a fixed sign is weaker
than one in a dual sign (द्विस्वभाव राशि).
This is the general method for assessing the strength of
houses.
