मासप्रवेशादिविचाराध्यायः
ये हद्दभागाः कथिताः क्रियादौ मासप्रवेशांगमते च तस्मिन् ॥तावत्प्रमाणा हि दशा च तेषां ज्ञेया ग्रहाणामिह रौमकोक्ता ॥अजेविलग्नेंगरसेभबाणादशाब्द ६ शु ६ ज्ञा ८ र ५ शनैश्चराणाम् ॥५॥
The hadda (a planet's own small part of a sign) degrees were told, starting with Aries. In that month-entry lagna (rising sign) teaching, the dasha (planet period) of those planets is of just that measure. This is to be known as told by Romaka (a foreign teaching). With Aries as the lagna, the periods are anga (6), rasa (6), ibha (8) and bana (5). They belong to Jupiter 6, Venus 6, Mercury 8, Mars 5, and Saturn. Our text gives Saturn no figure of his own. (Our text is unclear here: the syllable before the first 6, where Jupiter's name is expected.)
Simple meaning: Hadda periods in the month, from Romaka: each planet's period is as long as its hadda. Aries lagna: Jupiter 6, Venus 6, Mercury 8, Mars 5; Saturn's figure is not given.
तथैवमग्रेपि फलानि तासां ग्रहस्वरूपे तु समग्रकाणि ॥
Hadda periods: their results follow the planet's own nature, in full.
अथ मासलग्नमुंथहालग्नपोर्मध्ये यो बलवांस्तस्माद् हद्दादशा विचार्य्या इत्युक्तं वर्षतंत्रे ॥
Hadda periods in the month: take the stronger sign lord of the muntha and the month lagna. In that sign the hadda lords rule in turn, one day per…
अत्र विशेषमाह वामनः ॥
Hadda periods, Vamana: in its own or a friend's hadda the day and month periods are likewise. A planet looking at the hadda gives the best result.
