Chapter 5 · Year Lord and Muntha
वर्षेशादिविचाराध्यायः
अस्तङ्गतो लग्नपतिश्च तद्व ८।६।१२ त्सामान्यतोन्येपि विनाशसंस्थाः ॥तथाब्दलग्नात्रिपताकचक्रे विद्धश्शशी जन्मपतिश्च रन्ध्रे ॥
The lagna (rising sign) lord may be set, or likewise placed in the 8th, 6th or 12th. In general, other lords too may stand in places of ruin. Also, in the tripataka chakra (three-flag wheel) cast from the year lagna, the Moon may be pierced. And the birth lord may be in the 8th.
Simple meaning: Harm in the year: lagna lord set or in the 8th, 6th or 12th, Moon pierced in the three-flag wheel, birth lord in the 8th.
पराजिता वर्षपजन्मलग्नवर्षाङ्गमुंथापतयस्तथैव ॥
When the main lords of the year are defeated or set, they can bring harm.
अतोन्यथा रिष्टहराः खचरा मुनिभिस्स्मृताः ॥
Planets in the opposite state remove harm. Add up the strength of the harm-making planets in one place.
तद्वच्चरिष्टहर्तृणां स्थापयेच्च पृथग्बलम् ॥
Weighing harm: set the strength of the harm-removers apart. Add the strengths for danger to life and illness to the harm side.
