Indeed, a child born in the "jyeṣṭhā-gaṇḍānta" (the inauspicious junction of the Jyeṣṭhā constellation) is destructive to both their father and themselves. Therefore, I will now explain the ritual for their appeasement, for the pacification of all obstacles.

2.
All the arrangements, including the ritual pavilion (maṇḍapa) and so forth, should be made to the same extent as for a mūlaśānti ceremony. Here, Indra is the primary deity, and similarly, Agni (Anala) is the presiding deity (adhideva).

3.
And, O brāhmaṇa (vipra), the Rākṣasa is to be known as the counter-presiding deity (pratyadhidaivatam). One should fashion an image of Indra according to one's capacity (yathāśakti) using gold.

One should worship (Indra's image), which is holding a thunderbolt (vajra) and a goad (aṅkuśa), which is divine, situated upon a royal elephant, and placed atop a pitcher (kumbha) filled with husked rice (śālitaṇḍula).

5.
One should perform an ablution (abhiṣeka) and a fire sacrifice (homa) with perfumes, flowers, unbroken rice, and other offerings, using the mantra prescribed in one's own Gṛhya-sūtra, and also arrange a meal for Brahmins.
इन्द्रसूक्तं जपेद् भक्त्या मन्त्रं मृत्युञ्जयं तथा ।

6.
One should devotedly (bhaktyā) chant the Indra-sūkta and also the Mṛtyuñjaya mantra. One should pray to Lord Indra (Indra-deva), and then one will attain peace (śānti).
अथ वा शक्त्यभावे तु कुर्याद् गोदानमेव हि ।

Alternatively, if there is a lack of means (śakti-abhāve), one should certainly perform the gift of a cow (go-dāna), because the gift of a cow (go-dāna) surpasses all gifts of land.

8.
When a child is born in the gaṇḍānta period of Mūla, Jyeṣṭhā, Aśleṣā, or Maghā nakṣatras, one should give three cows. If born in the gaṇḍānta period of Revatī or Aśvinī nakṣatras, one should give a pair of cows. These donations should be made to a Brahmin (dvija) at the time of the gaṇḍānta.
अन्यगण्डे च दुर्योगे गामेकां हि प्रदापयेत् ।
गोरभावे च विप्राय दद्यात् तन्मूल्यमेव हि ॥९॥
गोरभावे च विप्राय दद्यात् तन्मूल्यमेव हि ॥९॥

anyagande ca duryoge gām ekām hi pradāpayet
goḥ abhāve ca viprāya dadyāt tat mūlyam eva hi
goḥ abhāve ca viprāya dadyāt tat mūlyam eva hi
9.
And in other gaṇḍānta periods or in an unfavorable planetary combination (dur-yoga), one should indeed cause to be given one cow. And if cows are unavailable, one should indeed give their monetary value to a Brahmin (vipra).

A girl born in Jyeṣṭhā nakṣatra causes the death of her husband's elder brother. A girl born in the last quarter (pada) of Viśākhā nakṣatra causes the death of her husband's younger brother.

Therefore, at the time of her giving away (in marriage), one should also perform the offering of cows. (This applies to) those born in the last three quarters of Ashlesha (nakshatra) and the first three quarters of Mūla (nakshatra).

12.
These bride and groom bring misfortune upon the mother-in-law and father-in-law respectively. Therefore, at the time of their marriage, a wise person should perform a pacification ritual (śānti).
तत्तदोषविनाशाय यथावित्तानुसारतः ।
धवाग्रजद्यभावे तु न दोषाय प्रजायते ॥१३॥
धवाग्रजद्यभावे तु न दोषाय प्रजायते ॥१३॥

tattaddoṣavināśāya yathāvittānusārataḥ
| dhavāgrajābhāve tu na doṣāya prajāyate
| dhavāgrajābhāve tu na doṣāya prajāyate
13.
For the destruction of those respective flaws, (the ritual should be performed) according to one's financial capacity. However, if there is no elder brother of the husband, then the flaw does not arise.
