Chapter 5 · Year Lord and Muntha
वर्षेशादिविचाराध्यायः
तद्यथायाताब्दसंघाद्रविभिर्विभक्ताच्छेषेन्थिहा स्यादथ जन्म लग्नात् ॥ जन्माङ्गभागैस्सहितेति ॥
This is how it goes. Divide the total of years gone by twelve. The remainder, counted from the janma lagna (rising sign at birth), is the muntha (the point that moves one sign each year). It is joined with the degrees of the janma lagna.
Simple meaning: Muntha: years gone divided by 12, counted from the birth lagna, plus the lagna degrees.
अथवा लग्नांशयोजनं धनसहजादिभावांशयोजनोपलक्षकं यथा जन्मलग्नं सिंहो द्वादशांशमितः प्रथमवर्षे तत्रैव मुथहा पुनर्द्धनभावः ॥ कन्यायान्दशांशमितः द्वितीयवर्षे कन्यायान्दशांशमिता मुथहा ॥ एवं सर्वत्र ज्ञेयम् ॥
Adding the degrees: each year the muntha takes the degree of the house it reaches, like Leo 12 degrees, then the 2nd house at Virgo 10 degrees.
अथ मुथहाविचारणप्रकारम्मुथहेशमुथहयोः शुभमशुभंवा फलमुक्तं समरसिंहेन॥
Judging the muntha: check its sign, any planet in it, its lord, and their strength.
मुथहाधिपतिः षष्ठाष्टमगो द्वादशगश्चतुर्थश्च॥
Muntha lord in the 6th, 8th, 12th or 4th, set, retrograde, or hurt by bad planets: the year is not good.
