मासप्रवेशादिविचाराध्यायः
अथ जलाखेटकप्रश्ने ॥जामित्रनाथेन सुधाकरेण यदीत्थशालं कुरुते महीजः ॥शुक्रेक्षितो वारिचरस्य राशावाखेटकः स्यात्प्रचुरो झषाणाम् ॥
Next, on a question of fishing. Mars may make an ithasala (planets moving toward an exact aspect) with the Moon as lord of jamitra (old name for the 7th house). Mars may be looked at by Venus and be in the sign of a water animal. Then the fishing would bring plenty of fish.
Simple meaning: 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.
तन्मध्ये यदि सौम्याः स्युस्तदा च हरिणादिकम्॥
Hunting: good planets in between, deer; bad planets in between, harmful animals.
