He who is desirous of children should perform the Shraddha under the constellation Rohini, while he who is desirous of power should do it under the constellation Mrigashiras. By performing the Shraddha under the constellation Ardra, a man becomes the doer of terrific deeds.
अपत्यकामो रोहिण्यां तेजस्कामो मृगोत्तमे। क्रूरकर्मा ददच्छ्राद्धमार्द्रायां मानवो भवेत्॥
