मासप्रवेशादिविचाराध्यायः
अत्र भावे कन्याराशिर्नवांशे सति बुधफलवद् राहुफलं वाच्यमिति विशेषः ॥ शुभाशुभफलमेकस्मिन्नेव भावे स्वोच्चगृहनीचादिगृहविषयकं ज्ञेयमिति राहुः ॥ एतद्ग्रहाणां भावे नवांशफलं ज्ञेयम् ॥
Here, when the navamsha (one-ninth part of a sign) in a house is the sign Virgo, Rahu's result is to be told like Mercury's result. This is the special point. In one and the same house, the good and bad result depends on the sign. That means the sign of its uchcha (high point), the sign of its nicha (low point) and the like. The navamsha result of these planets in the houses is to be known.
Simple meaning: Rahu in a Virgo navamsha: tell his result like Mercury's. Good or bad results depend on a high or low sign.
अत्र विशेषमाह चंडेश्वरः ॥
Navamsha results by time: each planet gives its result while it passes each navamsha, in order. There are 108 navamshas in all.
सूर्यज्ञभृगुपुत्रेभ्यो सत्रिभागं दिनत्रयम् ॥
Time in a navamsha: Sun, Mercury and Venus 3 1/3 days each, Mars 5 days, Jupiter 40 days.
शनेर्मासत्रयं प्रोक्तं दशाहसहितं पुनः ॥
Time in a navamsha: Saturn 3 months and 10 days, Rahu 2 months, the Moon in the middle.
