Brihajjataka 3.1

3.1

krūra grahaiḥ subalibhir vibalaiś ca saumyaiḥ klībe catuṣṭaya gate tad avekṣaṇād vā/
candra upaga dvi rasa bhāga sa māna rūpaṃ satvaṃ vaded yadi bhavet sa viyoni saṃjñaḥ//(va ti)

When malefic planets are very strong, benefics are weak, and a neuter is in a cardinal house or aspects it, / one should declare the creature to be of a form corresponding to the dvādaśāṃśa occupied by the Moon, provided that sign is called non-human.
