Chapter 5 · Year Lord and Muntha
वर्षेशादिविचाराध्यायः
अनेकरुक्पीडनमंगकार्श्यं निरुद्यमत्वं स्वपरैर्विवादम् ॥धर्मार्थहानिं रिपुराजभीतिमभीष्टपीडां मुथहा व्ययस्था ॥ १२ ॥
The muntha (the point that moves one sign each year) in the 12th house tends to bring many painful illnesses and a thin body. It brings no effort and quarrels with one's own people and others. It brings loss of duty and money. It brings fear of enemies and the king, and pain in what one wishes for. (12)
Simple meaning: Muntha in the 12th house: health needs care, quarrels, losses, fear.
ये राशयः क्रूरयुतास्तथा वदंतस्थितास्तत्र गतेंन्थिहा सा ॥
Muntha in a sign with bad planets: harm to that house's results.
तन्वादिभावे मुथहास्ति यत्र तद्भावतद्वर्गभवं फलं तदा ॥
Muntha result: it gives the result of the house it stands in, good or bad, by its strength.
अथ वर्षतंत्रे मुथहाया द्वादशभावफलानि ॥
Muntha in the 1st house: enemies weaken, peace of mind, gain, glory, the king's favour and a strong body.
