मासप्रवेशादिविचाराध्यायः
अत्र विशेषः प्रश्नवैष्णवे ॥लग्नेशजामित्रपतीत्थशाले सुस्नेहदृष्ट्या त्वनयोर्द्वयोश्च ॥आखेटकः स्यात्सफलारिदृष्ट्या कष्टाद्दृष्ट्या विफलोल्पको वा ॥
Here is a special point, in the Prashnavaishnava. Say the lagna lord and the lord of jamitra (old name for the 7th house) are in ithasala (planets moving toward an exact aspect). If both look at each other with great friendship, the hunt would succeed. With an enemy's look, it succeeds with hardship. With the look that follows, it is fruitless or small. (Our text is unclear here: the last condition is a syllable short and does not say which look.)
Simple meaning: Hunting: lagna lord and 7th lord in ithasala. A friendly look brings success, an enemy look success with hardship; otherwise little or nothing.
लग्नेश्वरे द्यूनगते विलग्नजायेश्वरे स्यान्मृगया प्रभूता ॥
Hunting: lagna lord in the 7th and 7th lord in the lagna, a big hunt; a slow 7th lord, a small one; strong Mars, a great one.
विभौमगेहे च कुजे नभस्थे जीवज्ञदृष्टे मृगया गरीयसी ॥
Hunting: Mars in the 10th, out of its own sign, looked at by Jupiter and Mercury, a big hunt; Mars in their signs in the 10th or lagna, also big.
जामित्रनाथे हि बुधे नभस्थे चाखेटकः स्वल्पतरोपि न स्यात् ॥
Hunting: Mercury as 7th lord in the 10th, no hunt; in the 7th with strength, a big one; elsewhere, small.
