शुक्र क्षेत्रे कृतं वेश्म नित्यं कल्याणमादिशेत्।
बुधस्य परमं सौख्यं चन्द्रः पुरुषदैन्यकृत्।। १३९
कुर्यात् स्त्रीभ्यस्सुखं वापि चैवं राशौ फलं भवेत्।
अंशकादिषु विज्ञेयं एवं ज्ञात्वा समाचरेत्।। १४०

It is ascertained that the houses constructed in the grids of Venus will yield auspicious
results for ever. Houses built in the grids of Mercury will yield everlasting comforts
and happiness. Houses constructed in the grids of Moon will put the male members in
poverty and distress; but they will yield happiness and comforts to the female
members. In this way, the effects of the zodiacal houses will occur to the inhabitants.
In the same way, the effects resulting from ams’a and other factors should be known.
Having known well all such effects, the architect should commence the constructional
works.

छिन्ने भिन्ने तथा नष्टे नमिते ऽभिमिते गृहे।। १४२

Having analyzed in this way, the architect should place the first brick in the base
of the foundation of the proposed building. The houses built so as to be in the shadow
of mountains or temple towers will get affected in due course. Houses built in a place
liable to be affected by inundation and flooded river are conducive to grief and distress.
