Next, the junction of the 12th house is 3;17;4;36. Taken from the lagna (rising sign) house, 3;4;3;8, it leaves 16;22;2. These are the lagna's degrees run. Next, take the lagna house, 3;4;3;8, from the lagna's junction, 3;17;4;16. This leaves 13;17;58, the lagna's degrees still to run. Next, take the lagna's junction, 3;17;4;16, from the 2nd house's junction, 4;14;57;2. This leaves 27;15;56. This is the 2nd house's dasha (planet period), in solar days and so on. It is the same as found before. Here, at the first year entry, the lagna's period equals the days of its degrees still to run. Then come the periods of the 2nd house and the rest. At the end of the 12th house's period, the lagna's period comes again. It equals the days of the lagna's degrees run.
Simple meaning: House periods by junctions, example: the lagna's degrees left start the year, the 2nd house follows, and the lagna's degrees run close the year.
अथैतेदशादिवसाः २७।१५।५६। माससौरसावनदिवसैः ३०।२६।१७।३७ गोमूत्रिकया गुणिताः ८।३०।३४।५४।३५ त्रिंशता भक्ताः २७४१।९।५९ जातानि सौरसावनदिनात्मकानि दशादिनानि एवं सर्वत्र ॥
Solar-civil days, example: 27;15;56 times 30;26;17;37, divided by 30, gives the period in solar-civil days.
अथ मासप्रवेशे भावान्तरांशाद्वादशभक्ता मासप्रवेशे ग्रहाणांभावतसीरदशादिनानि स्युः ॥ दिनप्रवेशेपि भावांतरांशाः षड्भक्ता दिनप्रवेशे ग्रहाणां भावतसीरदशाघटयः स्युरिति विशेषः ॥
House periods in the month and day: degrees between houses divided by 12 give month days; divided by 6, day ghatikas.
अथ स्थूलभावतसीरदशा ताजिकसारे॥
Rough house periods: the house's sign number times five, less a small part, gives its days.
