Ocean of Victory in War

Determining the Sex of a Child

One should combine the number of the Lunar Day original: Tithi and the number representing the planet presiding over the hour. To this sum, add the numerical value of the Limb of the Day original: ahorāṅga; likely referring to the specific portion of the day or the astrological sign rising at the time of the query.

Divide this total by seven.

• If the remainder is even: A girl shall be born. original: kanyā syād
• If the remainder is odd: One should declare that a son will be born. original: putra mādiśet

This calculation should be applied to questions concerning a woman who is currently pregnant. original: garbhasthāyāḥ striyo

The Method of Dividing by Seven and Three

In the matter of a formal inquiry, one should apply the measurement of the letters of the mother’s name. Multiply the sum by the appropriate factors and divide by seven. From the resulting quotient, if the remainder is one or more, the outcome is determined by the movement toward the earth or the netherworld.

Alternatively, one should perform the calculation by dividing by three:

1. If one remains: The result indicates a portion of success or a high-quality outcome.
2. If two remain: The result is of a "middle" or mediocre fruit.
3. If nothing remains (zero): The outcome belongs to a "low family" original: nīcakule; metaphorically meaning a poor, unsuccessful, or base result.

Of this, there is no doubt; this is the truth.

Analysis of the Name and Vowels

In all cases where one seeks to know the outcome, one must carefully consider the letters in the names of the woman and the man. One must calculate based on the vowels original: svaraje and the varna original: varṇāḥ; the specific sounds or letters making up the name.

If the value of the name, when divided by three, leaves no remainder, it is influenced by the weight of the "Teacher" original: Guru; referring to the planet Jupiter. If the first value is related to the Sun, and the second to a woman, then one should speak accordingly. One must examine whether the name contains an even or odd number of syllables.

Calculation of the Birth Timing

Regarding the "yoga" astrological combination in the right hand, one should perform the letters' calculation through the sequence of the elements of knowledge. The wise practitioner should slowly determine the time of birth from this.

One should consider the counts of three, seven, and ten months. Count the number of days from the day of the transit and apply them here. Then, consider the month of birth, even up to the eleventh month. From that point forward, one should calculate the number of days and indicate the time of birth.
