If Kuja and Ravi are in the 1 st and 7th respectively, death occurs to her by weapons. The abortion takes place in the month, whose lord is powerless or afflicted. If benefics are in conjunction with lagna and Chandra, of if the 5th, 9th, 2nd, 7th, 4th and 10th houses from them are occupied be benefics or if the malefics occupy 3 rd and 11th houses, and aspected by the Sun she will have a safe and happy pregnancy. If powerful lagna, Ravi, Chandra and Guru occupy odd signs or navamsas, they cause masculine birth. If these occupy even signs and amsas, they produce feminine birth. If Guru and Ravi are found in odd signs, then a male, if Sukra, Kuja and Chandra are in even signs, a female is born. If these planets are in double-bodied signs aspected by Budha, there will be twins after the sex of the zodiacal sign. If Saturn occupies odd signs from the lagna (excepting lagna), he causes male birth. Examine the relative strength of the various planets and predict the birth of males or females. If the Moon and the Sun aspect mutually, if Saturn and Mercury aspect mutually; if Mars, in an odd sign, aspects the Sun in an even sign; if the Moon and lagna are in odd, and have the aspect of Mars in even sign; if the Moon is in even and Mercury in odd, and have the aspect of Mars; if Venus, lagna and the Moon are posited in masculine amsas; in all these six cases, eunuchs will be born.

If planets and lagna are in common amsas, aspected by Mercury in his amsa, three children will be born, of whom two will partake of the sex of the amsa occupied by Mercury and the other of the opposite sex. If planets, lagna and Budha are in similar amsas, then three children of that sex will be born. If lagna is in Dhanus, or falls in that amsa, if all the planets are powerful Sani and Budha, then predict many children at one birth. Kalala, Ghana, Ankura, Asthi, Charma, Angaja, Chetamatha are governed by Sukra, Kuja, Guru, Ravi, Chandra, Sani and Budha respectively. The lord of lagna, Chandra, and Ravi are rulers of the next three months respectively. The foetal growth depends upon the strength and weakness of the planets, who govern the particular month. If Budha is in thrikona, and other planets are powerless, then the child will have two faces, four hands, and four legs with one face.
