It is difficult to imagine. Similarly, in a situation where a seeker asks for the name of a thief, if the answer is accurate and the seeker reveals the astrologer's name to the thief (even if the goods are recovered by the police), enmity with the thief is certain. Therefore, such a seeker is also considered "untrustworthy" because they have breached confidentiality. Thus, anyone who might break the secrecy of the answer or misuse the prediction is categorized as untrustworthy. There can be many other types of untrustworthy individuals; therefore, an astrologer should always avoid answering their questions after careful consideration and must remain cautious about protecting confidentiality themselves—this is the intended meaning.

Along with these, those who hold a sense of reverence for the astrologer but are poor must be answered by the Diviner (Daivajña) A knower of fate or a learned astrologer; otherwise, the astrologer will incur the curse of Saraswati The Goddess of knowledge and speech and their knowledge will perish.
