If the Lord of the Ascendant (Asc.) is posited in its own Navamsha then its Antar is auspicious. In the same way if the Lord of the Ascendant is posited in its own Dwadasamsa or Drekkana, the Learned say, their Antar is also equally auspicious.
3-4. If the Lord of the Ascendant (Asc.) is in its own Trimsamsha or that of a friend, in the house of a friend, in the Navamsha of a friend or in the Dwadasamsa of a friend, their Antar is auspicious.
