दशाफलाध्यायः
मृत्युं मृत्युपतेः करोति नियतं धर्मेशितुः सुक्रियांवित्तं राज्यपतेर्नृपाश्रयमथा लाभं हि लाभेशितुः ।रोगं द्रव्यविनाशनं च बहुधा कष्टं व्ययेशस्य वैपूर्वैरङ्गभृतामुदीरितमिदं तन्वादि भावेशजम् ॥ २६ ॥
The lord of the 8th house tends to bring a risk of death. The lord of the 9th house brings good deeds. The lord of the 10th house brings money and a king's support. The lord of the 11th house brings gain. The lord of the 12th house tends to bring illness, loss of money and, often, hardship. This is what the older teachers said about the lords of the houses from the 1st onward, for people.
Simple meaning: The 8th lord may risk death. The 9th gives good deeds, the 10th money, the 11th gain, the 12th loss.
Classical view, not medical advice.
बलवन्तो दशाधीशा दिशन्ति सकलं फलम् ।
A strong period lord gives the full result. A weak one gives none. A middle one gives a middle result.
लग्नेशस्य दशाफलं बहुधनं वित्तेशितुः पञ्चतां
The 1st lord brings wealth, the 2nd hardship, the 3rd mostly bad, the 4th a house, the 5th learning.
भावाधिपो बलयुतो निजगेहगामी
A strong house lord well placed gives full results. A weak one in a bad sign gives bad ones.
