Chapter 5 · Year Lord and Muntha
वर्षेशादिविचाराध्यायः
वर्षलग्नपरंधेशौ चतुर्थनिधनांत्यगौ ॥मुथहासंयुतौ यत्र तद्वर्षे मरणप्रदौ ॥
Take the lord of the lagna (rising sign) of the year chart (chart for the year) and the lord of the 8th house. They may be in the 4th, 8th or 12th house, joined with the muntha (the point that moves one sign each year). Then they may bring danger to life in that year.
Simple meaning: Year lagna lord and 8th lord in the 4th, 8th or 12th with the muntha: a hard year, health needs care.
चेज्जन्मनाथो विबलो मृतीशो लग्नङ्गतो भास्करदृष्टिमूर्तिः ॥
Weak birth lord, with the 8th lord in the lagna seen by the Sun: injury, trouble and body illness may come.
मुथहालग्ननाथौ चेत्सूर्यमण्डलमागतौ ॥
Muntha lord and lagna lord near the Sun, seen by Saturn: a very hard year with heavy losses.
योगो यदा मूसरिफो ग्रहेन्द्रैर्दुष्टैः कृतः सौम्यकृतः कबूलः ॥
Israpha with bad planets, with the birth lord joined by bad planets: a big money loss and a very hard time.
