Chapter 5 · Year Lord and Muntha
वर्षेशादिविचाराध्यायः
तत्र मुन्थाशब्दस्य व्याख्यानमाह यादवः।।प्रसूतिलग्नभ्रमणेन भावान्मन्थाति मुंथेति च रूढिरस्याः ॥शुभाशुभाख्यं च फलं व्यनक्ति स्थानाश्रयादेव वदामि सम्यक् ॥ १ ॥
Yadava explains the word muntha (the point that moves one sign each year). It stirs up the houses by going round them from the janma lagna (rising sign at birth). So the name muntha has become the custom for it. It shows good and bad results through the house it rests in. I will explain this well.
Simple meaning: Meaning of muntha: it moves round the houses from the birth lagna, and the house it rests in shapes the results.
मुन्थहोत्पत्तिप्रकारमाह समरसिंहः ॥
Finding the muntha: divide the years gone by 12, then count the remainder from the lagna.
अयमर्थः ॥ जन्मतो गतवर्षसमूहे द्वादशभक्ते शेषे जन्मलग्नाद्यत्र धनसहजादिभावे विश्रामं प्राप्नोति स एव मुथहास्यादिति ॥
Finding the muntha: years gone divided by 12, remainder counted from the birth lagna.
जन्मचक्रे प्रत्यब्दमेकराशिभ्रमणवशाद्यत्र राश्यादिभावं याति स भाव एव वर्षे मुथहा स्यादिति तट्टीकाकृत् ॥
Muntha by the commentator: it moves one sign a year, and the house it reaches is that year's muntha.
