Chapter 5 · Year Lord and Muntha
वर्षेशादिविचाराध्यायः
वर्षेप्यनिष्टगेहस्थिताथ यद्भावजनुषि क्रूरयुता ॥तद्भावस्य च नाशकरी शुभयुता शुभदा ॥
In the year, the muntha (the point that moves one sign each year) may stand in a bad house. At birth, in whatever house it was, it may be joined with bad planets. Then it may harm that house. Joined with good planets, it gives good.
Simple meaning: Muntha in a bad house in the year, with bad planets at birth: that house is harmed. With good planets, good comes.
मुथहेशो मुथहा वा जन्मनि युक्तेक्षिता सौम्यैः ॥
Muntha or its lord with good planets at birth: good results in the first part of the year.
एवं च वर्षकाले फलं च वर्षोत्तरार्द्धे स्यात् ॥
The same during the year gives results in the second half. Bad planets bring bad results.
मुथहाफलं समस्तं धिषणाचार्येण गदितमिति ॥
Closing line: all these muntha results were taught by Dhishanacharya.
