If, in Grīṣma, the sun be of blood colour mankind will be afflicted with various fears; If, in Varṣā, he be black there will be drought on the Earth; If, in Hemanta he be yellow there will be immediate fear from disease.
If the solar disc should be crossed by the rainbow the princes of the land will be at war with one another. If in winter the disc be clear there will be immediate rain.
If in Varṣā the colour of the sun be that of the flower Śirīṣa (Mimosa flexuosa) there will be immediate rain; if the colour be that of the peacock’s plume there will be no rain for twelve years to come.
If, then the sun be black there will be fear from worms and reptiles; if it be ashy pale there will be fear from foreign princes; if the sun should appear with a hole that prince will perish in the star of whose nativity the sun then happens to be.
If at other times than rising or setting the sun be of the colour of the blood of a hare there will be war in the land; if he should appear like the moon, the reigning prince will be killed and a foreign prince will succeed immediately.
