CHAPTER 66

1. If Mercury is in its base-triplicity in a varga of Jupiter, or if a navamsa of Mercury is in the ascendant in a. varga of Jupiter, or if Jupiter is in the ascendant in a sign which possesses its (i.e., Jupiter’s) qualities and in a feminine varga, a son is born.

2. Their influences are to be described as the planets are in each other’s houses or as their navamsas are in the ascendant; one should establish that a male or a female is born on the basis of the odd and even signs and of the planets.

3. If Saturn is in an odd place from the ascendant and is aspected by a masculine planet, it establishes that a male is born. Or, if an odd sign is in the ascendant, one should know that a male is born; in the opposite case, a female.

In the Yavanajataka: questions about the births of males or females.
