अग्निर्भगवान् सेवाचक्रं ज्योतिषाधारितं निदानचक्रं निरूपयति, येन लाभालाभौ तथा पितृमातृभ्रातृदारा-आश्रयसम्बन्धानां फलानि ज्ञायन्ते। पञ्चत्रिंशत्कोष्ठकयुक्तं (ऊर्ध्वाधोविभागैः) चक्रं कृत्वा स्वर-स्पर्शवर्णविन्यासः, नामाक्षरभेदेन फलनिर्णयश्च कथ्यते। फलानि सिद्ध-साध्य-सुसिद्धरूपेण शुभानि, अरि-मृत्युरूपेण अशुभानि; कार्येषु शत्रु-मृत्युसूचकान् त्यजेत् इति सावधानता। वर्णगणानां देव-दैत्य-नाग-गन्धर्व-ऋषि-राक्षस-पिशाच-मनुष्यादिषु नियोजनं, बलक्रमनिर्णयः, तथा धर्मनियमः—बलवान् दुर्बलं न पीडयेत्। अनन्तरं ताराचक्रविधिः—नामाद्याक्षरात् नक्षत्रनिर्णयः, मात्रागणना, विंशतिभागेन जन्य-संपत्-विपत्-क्षेमादिफलप्राप्तिः। अन्ते राशिमैत्री-वैर्ययुग्मानि प्रदर्श्य, ‘मित्रराशौ’ सेवां न कुर्यात् इति नीत्या सह भविष्यवाणी संयोज्यते।
