Hayanaratna · by Balabhadra
Chapter 8 · Month Chart and Monthly Results
मासप्रवेशादिविचाराध्यायः
ततो द्वादशमासप्रवेशमासकुंडलिकास्पष्टा ग्रहा द्वादशभावसहिताः मासेश्वरनिर्णयमासे सफलमासदशाः फलसहिता लेख्याः ॥
Then the twelve month entries, the month charts, and the exact planets with the twelve houses are to be written. In the month, the settling of the month lord is to be written. So are the month periods with their results, together with results.
Simple meaning: Writing the yearly chart: the twelve months, their charts, month lords and month periods with results.
ततो मासप्रवेशमध्ये दिनप्रवेशकुंडली स्पष्टग्रहद्वादशभावफलदिनेश्वरनिर्णयदिनेश्वरफलं दिनदशाफलं यथासंभवं भोजनमृगयाखेटकस्वप्नादिसहिता लेख्याः ततोग्रिमाब्दप्रवेशः कुंडलीसहितो लेख्यः ॥ इति वर्षपत्रीलेखनक्रमः ॥
Writing the yearly chart: the day charts and day lords, with meals, hunting and dreams, then the next year's entry.
निर्मथ्य सत्ताजिकशास्त्रसिंधुं समूहतो हायनरत्नसंज्ञः ॥
Closing: the Hayanaratna, drawn from the Tajika ocean, is an ornament for astrologers who make yearly charts.
वित्तं नान्यं परेषां तु सिंधोर्मथनजं श्रमम् ॥
Closing: the author has no other wealth. He offers his book, the toil of churning the ocean of others' works, at Shiva's feet.
