In the manner described earlier predictions should be made after considering the position of the planets and the - lagna at the time of birth. Where a horoscope is not available, the effects should be predicted on the basis of the rising lagna and the position of the planets at the time of query. There will be no difference between the effects based on the birth chart and those based on the chart at the time of query. If the day is clouded, the ghatikas from sunrise to the time of the query cannot easily be calculated. Then the different Rasis and Navamsas have to be fixed by further questions. These are given in the next three verses. The person seeking an answer to his problem should approach the astrologer with fruits and money (ltterally, gold in hand). After approaching the astrologer, he should. The number given by the querist is to be divided by nine. The quotient gives the number of signs that have elapsed from Mesha onwards. The remainder gives the number of the navamsas that were over in the next sign. The bhavas and the planets should be fixed as per the time of lagna and its navamsa. The good and bad effects should be predicted on the lines of the principles given earlier. But these results are determined by the strongest among the Karakas, Bhavas, and the lords of the Bhavas. The number of the flowers and coins given by the querist to the astrologer have to be noted. These should be multiplied by the number chosen by the querist. Then divide the product by twelve. The remainder is to be counted from Mesha. The sign thus arrived at is the one in which Guru was situated at the birth time of the querist. From this position and by looking at the querist, the astrologer can give the approximate age in years of the person. The degrees covered by Guru in the sign of the time of the question will give the number of months and days that have elapsed in the age of the querist. The total period which is got in this manner should be deducted from the longitude of the Sun. This gives the year, The months, the week days, the Ghatikas and the like that have elapsed on that day are all solar ones. From this we can get the position of the month, the lunar year, the tithi and so on. Then the horoscope can be cast easily. In this way we have briefly described the method of casting a lost or unknown horoscope. This method is described for the delight of the Astikas--believers in the authority of the Vedas.
