Chapter 5 · Year Lord and Muntha
वर्षेशादिविचाराध्यायः
तनुधनसहजानाम्मध्ये यत्रास्ति मुन्थहा तस्य पूर्वोक्तजातकफलं तत्काले यच्छति शुभेशाप्रतिभावे वक्ष्यमाणमुन्थाफलं शुभेशमुन्थायां पूर्णं ज्ञेयम् ॥ क्रूरेशमुन्थायाङ्किञ्चिन्यूनं ज्ञेयमित्यर्थः ॥
Take the muntha (the point that moves one sign each year) standing in the 1st, 2nd or 3rd house. At that time it gives the birth-chart result told earlier for that house. In every house, the muntha result told below is full when the muntha's lord is a good planet. When its lord is a bad planet, know it to be a little less. This is the meaning.
Simple meaning: Muntha in the 1st to 3rd houses gives that house's result; full with a good lord, a little less with a bad lord.
अथ मुथहाया द्वादशभावफलानि ॥ तेजास्सिंहेनोक्तानि ॥
Muntha in the 1st house: good health, comfort, strength, victory.
मिष्टाशनं वित्तधनादिवृद्धिमुपक्रमाच्चिन्तितकार्यसिद्धिम् ॥
Muntha in the 2nd house: good food, money growth, success in plans.
महोद्यमं कायबलं प्रवृद्धिमारम्भसिद्धिञ्च सहोत्थसौख्यम् ॥
Muntha in the 3rd house: effort, strength, good starts, friends, the king's favour.
