உப பாதம் - பிருஹத் பராசர ஹோர சாஸ்திரம்

18. Budh with Ketu in the 2^nd from Upa Pad will cause breakage of bones, while Rahu, Sani and Surya will cause distress of bones.

19-22. Budh and Rahu in the 2^nd from Upa Pad will give a stout-bodied wife. If the 2^nd from Upa Pad happens to be one of Budh’s Rasis and is tenanted by Mangal and Sani, the wife of the native will suffer from nasal disorders. Similarly a Rasi of Mangal, becoming the 2^nd from Upa Pad and occupied by Mangal and Sani, will cause nasal disorders to one’s wife. Guru and Sani will, if be in the 2^nd from Upa Pad, cause disorders of ears and/or eyes to the wife. If Budh and Mangal are placed in the 2^nd from Upa Pad other than their own Rasis, or, if Rahu is with Guru in the 2^nd from Upa Pad, the native’s wife will suffer from dental disorders. Sani and Rahu together in one of Sani’s Rasis, which is the 2^nd from Upa Pad, will cause lameness, or windy disorders to the native’s wife. These evils will not come to pass, if there happens to be a Yuti with, or a Drishti from a benefic (or from another benefic in the case of affliction being caused by a benefic himself).

23-23½. O Brahmin, all these effects be deduced from the natal Lagn, Lagn Pad, the 7^th from Upa Pad and the Lords thereof. So say Narada and others.

25-28. About Sons. If Sani, Candr and Budh are together in the 9^th from one of the said places (Sloka 23), there will be no son at all, while Surya, Guru and Rahu so placed will give a number of sons. Candr so placed will give a son, while a mixture of Grahas will delay the obtainment of a son. The son, caused by the Yuti of Surya, Guru and Rahu, will be strong, valorous, greatly successful and will destroy enemies. If Mangal and Sani are in the said 9^th, there will be no son, or a son will be obtained by adoption, or brother’s son will come in adoption. In all these cases odd Rasis will yield many sons, while even Rasis will cause only a few.
