Chapter 5 · Year Lord and Muntha
वर्षेशादिविचाराध्यायः
मुथहालग्ननाथौ चेत्सूर्यमण्डलमागतौ ॥दृष्टौ तौ सूर्यपुत्रेण सर्वनाशकरौ मतौ ॥
The lords of the muntha (the point that moves one sign each year) and the lagna (rising sign) may come into the Sun's orb. If Saturn looks at them, they are held to bring ruin of everything.
Simple meaning: 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.
बलोत्कराः क्रूरखगा बलेन हीना यदा सौम्यरवेस्तदानीम्॥
Strong bad planets with weak good planets and Sun: illness, quarrels and trouble from enemies.
दैत्येन्द्रपूज्यो यदि नीचसंस्थः सुरेज्यपूज्यो रिपुभागवर्ती ॥
Venus low and Jupiter in an enemy's part: no comfort in the year, and its results come to nothing.
