English Interpretation
1. Verse 85
o If the Ascendant (Lagna) is a water sign (Cancer, Scorpio, Pisces, Capricorn) and auspicious planets are placed there, the native is said to become stout or obese.
o If the Lagnesh (Ascendant lord) is a planet of the water element (Moon or Venus), strong, and associated with benefics, the body is described as well-nourished and full.
2. Verse 86
o If the Lagnesh is placed in a water sign, joined with benefics, and aspected by a water planet, the body becomes strong and fleshy.
o Even if the Ascendant is in a benefic’s sign, and the lord of the sign where Lagnesh is placed—or the lord of the Navamsha sign of Lagnesh—is in a water sign, the native gains corpulence.
3. Verse 87
o If the Ascendant is in a benefic’s sign and free from malefic aspects, the same result of stoutness occurs.
o If Jupiter aspects the Ascendant, or if Jupiter is placed in a water sign and aspects a water-sign Ascendant, then extreme obesity is indicated.
Refined Summary
• Water dominance (Ascendant in water signs, Lagnesh in water signs, or water planets influencing Lagna) produces fullness of body.
• Benefic association (Moon, Venus, Jupiter, Mercury) strengthens the tendency toward corpulence.
• Absence of malefic aspects allows the natural growth and nourishment to manifest without obstruction.
• Jupiter’s aspect is especially powerful, as Guru signifies expansion, growth, and abundance—leading to pronounced obesity when connected with watery signs.
In essence, these verses highlight how watery signs, benefic influences, and Jupiter’s expansive nature combine to create a physique that is fleshy, nourished, and often obese
