Brihat Samhita
उत्तरवीथिषु शुक्रः सुभिक्षशिवकृद्गतो अस्तं उदयं च । मध्यासु मध्यफलदः कष्टफलो दक्षिणस्थासु ॥ ९-०८ ॥
If Venus (śukra) should either disappear or reappear in a northern Vīthi there will be prosperity and happiness in the land; if in a central Vīthi there will not be much of either; and if in a southern Vīthi mankind will be afflicted with miseries.
