The following combinations (at the time of intercourse) lead to birth of a female issue: a) Candr and Sukr together in Putr, or Karm Bhava; b) Candr and Sukr in their own Rasis and, or Navamsh; c) Rahu rising and receiving a Drishti from Candr, or vice versa. d) Sukr in Candrs Hora, or in Kendr from Lagn.

Notes: Sukr should preferably be in Vrishabh Vargas, as it is his female Rasi. Tula is a male Rasi.

Should Budh be in a dual Rasi coinciding with Lagn, or, when a dual Rasi is Lagn and in Drishti to Budh, or Budh is in Karm Bhava (at the time of intercourse), birth of twins is indicated. The sex of the children can be guessed by the Rasi and Navamsh involved.

Notes: Budh is an important Grah in the assessment of twin birth. And Mithun Rasi ascending can lead to twin birth. Further, if Surya and Guru are posited in Dhanu, or Mithun in any Bhava, especially, as Putr Bhava, birth of twins is indicated. Candr and Mangal in Meen, or in Kanya receiving a Drishti from Budh lead to the same effect. According to Ramadayalus Sanketa Nidhi, Ch. 11, Sloka 3, when Surya is in a quadruped Rasi and other Grahas in dual Rasis with strength it indicates twin birth.
