Chapter 5 · Year Lord and Muntha
वर्षेशादिविचाराध्यायः
अथ वर्षेशार्थं पंचाधिकारिण आह समरसिंहः ॥अथ वर्षैश्वर्य्यकृते पंचान्वेष्याः पुरेन्थिहाधीशाः ॥हायनलग्नस्वामी तत्रैराशिकपतिस्तदनु ॥दिनवर्षे रविरिंदुर्निशि चैको जन्मलग्ननाथश्च ॥
Next, for the year's lordship, Samarasimha tells the five adhikaris (the planets in charge). Five are to be sought. First is the lord of the muntha (the point that moves one sign each year). Then the lord of the year lagna (rising sign), then the trirashipa (lord of Balabhadra's four-sign group). By day it is the Sun, by night the Moon, only one of them. The fifth is the lord of the birth lagna.
Simple meaning: The five candidates for year lord: lords of the muntha, the year lagna, the four-sign group, the Sun's or Moon's sign, and the birth lagna.
अत्र सूर्यशब्देन सूर्याक्रांतराशीश्वरश्चंद्रशब्देन चंद्राक्रांतराशीश्वर उच्यत इति ॥
'Sun' and 'Moon' here mean the lords of the signs they stand in.
अत एव तेजास्सिंहेन स्पष्टमुक्तम् ॥
Five year lord candidates, as before. Then their strength is checked.
मणित्थोपि ॥
Manittha's five candidates: Sun or Moon sign lord, birth lagna lord, year lagna lord, muntha lord, four-sign group lord.
