Chapter 5 · Year Lord and Muntha
वर्षेशादिविचाराध्यायः
अथ समाधिपतौ त्रिषडायगे खलखगे सकलं सबले शुभम् ॥व्ययविनाशगतेऽब्दपतौ तदा न च शुभं गदितं मुनिभिर्नृणामिति ॥
Next, the year lord may be in the 3rd, 6th or 11th. If it is a bad planet that is strong, the whole year is good. If the year lord is in the 12th or 8th, the sages have not called it good for people.
Simple meaning: Year lord in the 3rd, 6th or 11th: good if strong. In the 12th or 8th: not good.
अथ विशेषमाह तेजःसिंहः ॥
Year lord in a friendly place, away from the 6th, 8th and 12th, free from the Sun: a year of all comfort.
वक्रेथवाब्दजनुषोरपि सर्वकार्ये स्यात् प्रात्यलोम्यविफलत्वधनक्षयाद्यम् ॥
Year lord retrograde, set or struck: a year of trouble and loss of money. The same if the dasha lord is in the 6th, 8th or 12th.
अब्ददशाधिपो वर्षेशः ॥
Gloss: the lord of the year's dasha is the year lord.
