विद्यार्थाचारधर्मैः सह तपसि बुधे स्यात्प्रवीणोऽतिवाग्मी सिद्धारम्भः सुविद्याबलमतिसुखसत्कर्मसत्यान्वितः खे । बह्वायुः सत्यसन्धो विपुलधनसुखी लाभगे भृत्ययुक्तो दीनो विद्याविहीनः परिभव सहितोऽन्त्ये नृशंसोऽलसश्च ॥ १३॥
If at a birth Mercury should occupy the 9 th house from the Lagna, the person concerned will have learning and wealth; he will be of good conduct; he will be religious-minded, conversant with everything, and very eloquent in speech. If Mercury be in the 10 th house, the person born will be successful in whatever he undertakes, will have good learning, strength, intelligence, and happiness. He will do good acts and be truthful. Mercury in the 11 th house makes the person born long-lived, truthful, very rich, happy and possessed of servants. If Mercury be in the 12 th house, the person born will be miserable, devoid of learning, suffer humiliation, will be cruel and inactive.
