मासप्रवेशादिविचाराध्यायः
जामित्रनाथे हि बुधे नभस्थे चाखेटकः स्वल्पतरोपि न स्यात् ॥द्यूनस्थिते वीर्ययुतः प्रभूतः स्यादल्पकोऽन्यत्र गते च केन्द्रात् ॥
When Mercury, the lord of jamitra (old name for the 7th house), is in the 10th, there would not be even a very small hunt. If it is in the 7th with strength, plentiful. If it has gone elsewhere, away from a kendra (corner house), small.
Simple meaning: Hunting: Mercury as 7th lord in the 10th, no hunt; in the 7th with strength, a big one; elsewhere, small.
अथ जलाखेटकप्रश्ने ॥
Fishing: Mars in ithasala with the Moon as 7th lord, looked at by Venus in a water sign, brings plenty of fish.
अथाखेटके दिननक्षत्रवशेन फलमुक्तं ॥ भूपालवल्लभे ॥
Hunting by the day's star: count from the Sun's star to the Moon's in threes: noose, blow, final catch. The noose catches, the blow brings no gain.
वधे प्राप्तिर्भवेन्नित्यमेवं वाच्यं न संशयः ॥
Hunting: the third case always brings gain. Then a rule starts: the sign of the hunter's name star and the Moon's place.
