कामिक आगम: पूर्व भाग (अष्टाविंशति मूल शैव आगमों का प्रथम एवं सर्वोच्च आगम महाकोश)

Starting from the naks"atra of the owner( for whom the building is constructed),
the third, fifth, seventh and thirteenth naks"atras are to be abandoned. In the
same way, the fifteenth, seventeenth, eighteenth, twenty second and twenty
seventh naks"atras are to be neglected. Other naks"atras are considered to be
auspicious.
For example, if the remainder is 6, in the list of 27 naks"atras it denotes a'rdra'
naks"atra. If the birth star( janma naks"atra ) of the owner is bharan.i, we have to
count from bharan.i up to a'rdra'. In this case, a'rdra' is the fifth naks"atra while
counting from bharan.i. So, this naks"atra as denoted by the remainder is to be
neglected as directed in this Agama. This means we have to avoid the proposed
perimeter and look for another perimeter.
राज्ञां ग्रामस्य कर्तुश्च जन्मर्क्षेणाऽविरोधि यत् ।
तदेव चात्र संग्राह्यं विपरीतं परित्यजेत् ।। ७

With regard to the ruler(or, chief), village and the owner, only that naks"atra
which is not opposed to the birth star ( janma naks"atra) is to be considered
auspicious. The naks"atra which is not compatible to the birth star is to be
neglected.
