मध्याद्भ्रष्टेर्के विदेशस्थे जनने नारिजन्म वै । मंदेंगस्थे कुजेस्ते च ज्ञोस्फुजि मध्यगे विधौ ॥ ६९ ॥
madhyādbhraṣṭerke videśasthe janane nārijanma vai | maṃdeṃgasthe kujeste ca jñosphuji madhyage vidhau || 69 ||
إذا كان وقت الميلاد والشمس قد زالت عن وسط السماء وحلّت في أرضٍ غريبة دلّ ذلك على ولادة أنثى. وكذلك إذا كان زحل في موضعٍ غير محمود وكان المريخ كذلك، وإذا كان عطارد في برج «سفوجِت» والقمر قائمًا في الموضع الأوسط—فهذه الهيئات تُعلَّم كدلائل على تلك النتيجة.

It shows that even within Moksha-Dharma teaching, the Purana preserves Vedanga knowledge (Jyotisha) to guide worldly understanding, while implying that such results remain secondary to dharma and liberation.
This verse is primarily Jyotisha-focused and does not directly teach bhakti; indirectly, it frames astrological knowledge as supportive, while the larger Moksha-Dharma setting points the seeker beyond fate to devotion and right conduct.
Vedanga Jyotisha: it lists specific planetary placements (Sun, Saturn, Mars, Mercury, Moon) used to infer outcomes at birth—an applied rule-based approach to horoscope interpretation.
