Regarding the results (phala) of the six divisions (ṣaḍbhāgeṣu) of the fourteenth day (caturdaśī) of the dark lunar fortnight (kṛṣṇapakṣa), consider them sequentially. O twice-born (dvija), if a birth occurs in the first division, then it should be understood as auspicious.

If birth occurs in the second division, it causes harm to the father; in the third, to the mother. In the fourth, it affects the maternal uncle, and in the fifth, it brings about the destruction of the lineage (vaṃśanāśanam).

If the sixth house is afflicted, there may be a loss of wealth or even a destruction of the self (ātman). Therefore, to avert this fault, one should diligently perform a propitiation ritual (śānti).
