Chapter 5 · Year Lord and Muntha
वर्षेशादिविचाराध्यायः
ताजिककौस्तुभेपि ॥एषां यः खचरस्तनुम्बहुदृशा पश्येत्स वर्षाधिपो दृक्साम्येधिबलश्च तेजसि समेनैकाधिकारी नृपः ॥तत्साम्ये मुथहापतिस्स यदि नोपश्येत्तदा ह्यर्कपो रात्रौ चंद्रभपोत्र नो यदि विधुः प्रोक्तस्त्रिभेशस्तदा ॥
Among these, the planet that sees the lagna (rising sign) with the most aspect is the year lord. If the aspect is equal, the stronger one is year lord. If their power is also equal, the one in charge of more than one place is the ruler. If that is equal too, the lord of the muntha (the point that moves one sign each year) is year lord. If he does not see the lagna, take the lord of the Sun's sign by day. At night, take the lord of the Moon's sign. If that one does not see it, the trirashipa (lord of Balabhadra's four-sign group) is named.
Simple meaning: Year lord, order of choice: most aspect to the lagna, then strength, then most charges, then the muntha lord, then the Sun's or Moon's sign lord, then the four-sign group lord.
राशिषु | १ | २ | ३ | ४ | ५ | ६ | ७ | ८ | ९ | १० | ११ | १२
Table: the day, night and third lord of each sign, used to find the four-sign group lord.
न पश्येत्स चन्द्रो न चंद्रेत्थशालः स चेन्नैव पश्येत्तदा लग्नपः स्यात् ॥
Year lord when no one looks at the lagna: the Moon, or the planet in ithasala with it, then the lagna lord. If none looks, the year needs great care.
वामनोपि ॥
Year lord, the strong one does not look: take a weaker planet that looks. If strength is equal, the one with more aspect.
