भावेश्वरेण प्रबलेन येन यद्यत्फलं हीनबलेन येन । यदानुभोक्तव्यमनन्यसम्यक्संसूचयिष्यत्यथ संग्रहेण ॥ १॥
bhāveśvareṇa prabalena yena yadyatphalaṃ hīnabalena yena | yadānubhoktavyamananyasamyaksaṃsūcayiṣyatyatha saṃgraheṇa || 1||
Whatever results are given by a strong bhava lord, and by contrast by a weak one - the results one is to experience under their dashas - I shall now indicate in brief, all together.
लग्ने बलिष्ठे जगति प्रभुत्वं सुखस्थिति देहबलं सुवर्चः । उपर्युपर्यभ्युदयाभिवृद्धिं प्राप्नोति बालेन्दुवदेष जातः ॥ २॥
lagne baliṣṭhe jagati prabhutvaṃ sukhasthiti dehabalaṃ suvarcaḥ | uparyuparyabhyudayābhivṛddhiṃ prāpnoti bālenduvadeṣa jātaḥ || 2||
When the Lagna lord stands strong, in his dasha the native gains eminence in the world, a happy and settled condition, bodily strength and radiance; rise after rise of advancement comes to him - he grows like the waxing Moon.
पाकेऽर्थनाथस्य कुटुम्बसिद्धिं सत्पुत्रिकाप्तिं सुखभोजनं च । प्राप्नोति वाग्जीविकया धनानि वक्ता सदुक्तिं सदसि प्रशस्ताम् ॥ ३॥
pāke'rthanāthasya kuṭumbasiddhiṃ satputrikāptiṃ sukhabhojanaṃ ca | prāpnoti vāgjīvikayā dhanāni vaktā saduktiṃ sadasi praśastām || 3||
In the dasha of the lord of the 2nd, the native attains success of his family, gain of worthy children and enjoyable food; he earns wealth through speech, and his words are good ones praised in assemblies.
शौर्ये सवीर्ये सहजानुकूल्यं सण्तोषवातश्रिवणं च शौर्यम् । सेनापतित्वं लभतेऽभिमानं जनाश्रयं सद्गुणभाजनत्वम् ॥ ४॥
śaurye savīrye sahajānukūlyaṃ saṇtoṣavātaśrivaṇaṃ ca śauryam | senāpatitvaṃ labhate'bhimānaṃ janāśrayaṃ sadguṇabhājanatvam || 4||
In the dasha of the 3rd lord: valour with strength, the backing of co-born kin; contentment and honour heard; he attains generalship, pride, the reliance of people and worthiness as a vessel of virtues.
बन्धूपकारं कृषकर्मसिद्धिं स्त्रीसङ्घमं वाहनलाभमेति । क्षेत्रं गृहं नूतनुमर्थसिद्धिं स्थानंप्रशस्तं च सुखेश्दाये ॥ ५॥
bandhūpakāraṃ kṛṣakarmasiddhiṃ strīsaṅghamaṃ vāhanalābhameti | kṣetraṃ gṛhaṃ nūtanumarthasiddhiṃ sthānaṃpraśastaṃ ca sukheśdāye || 5||
Under the 4th lord's dasha: help from relatives, success in farming, the company of women and gain of vehicles; he obtains land, houses, ever-new enjoyments and a praiseworthy position.
पुत्रप्राप्तिं बन्धुविलासं नृपतीनां साचिव्यं वा धीशदशायां बहुमानम् । प्राज्यैर्भोज्यैर्मृष्टमिहाश्नाति ददाति श्रेयस्कार्यं सज्जनशस्तं स विदध्यात् ॥ ६॥
putraprāptiṃ bandhuvilāsaṃ nṛpatīnāṃ sācivyaṃ vā dhīśadaśāyāṃ bahumānam | prājyairbhojyairmṛṣṭamihāśnāti dadāti śreyaskāryaṃ sajjanaśastaṃ sa vidadhyāt || 6||
In the 5th-lord's dasha he attains a son, takes delight among relatives, becomes [a king's] councillor or gains honour in the assembly of the wise; he consumes splendid delicacies and gives them; he will undertake auspicious works praised by the good.
रिपून्निहन्ति साहसैररीश्वरस्य वत्सरे । अरोगतानुदारतामधृष्यतामतिश्रियम् ॥ ७॥
ripūnnihanti sāhasairarīśvarasya vatsare | arogatānudāratāmadhṛṣyatāmatiśriyam || 7||
In the dasha year(s) of the lord of enemies (6th), he annihilates his foes with boldness; [there come also] freedom from disease, felicity with the spouse, unassailability and great prosperity.
सम्पाद्य वस्त्राभरणानि शय्यां प्रीतो रमण्या रमतेऽतिवीर्यः । करोति कल्याणमहोत्सवादीन् सन्तोषयात्रां च मदेशदाये ॥ ८॥
sampādya vastrābharaṇāni śayyāṃ prīto ramaṇyā ramate'tivīryaḥ | karoti kalyāṇamahotsavādīn santoṣayātrāṃ ca madeśadāye || 8||
He procures garments, ornaments and beds; delighting, he sports with his beloved in great spirit; he performs splendid festivals and pleasure journeys - [in the dasha of] the giver of the 7th.
ऋणविमोचनमुच्छ्रतिमात्मनः कलहकृत्यनिवृत्तिमुपैति सः । महिषपश्वजभृत्यजनागमं वयसि रन्ध्रपतेर्बलशालिनः ॥ ९॥
ṛṇavimocanamucchratimātmanaḥ kalahakṛtyanivṛttimupaiti saḥ | mahiṣapaśvajabhṛtyajanāgamaṃ vayasi randhrapaterbalaśālinaḥ || 9||
In his dasha comes release from debts and the rise of oneself; feuds cease; buffaloes, cattle, horses and dependents arrive - [even for] the lord of the 8th when he is strong and mighty.
स्त्रीपुत्रपौत्रैः सहबन्धुवर्गैर्भाग्यंश्रियं चानुभवत्यजस्त्रम् । श्रेयांसि कार्याण्यवनीशपूजां भाग्येशदाये विजदेवभक्तिम् ॥ १०॥
strīputrapautraiḥ sahabandhuvargairbhāgyaṃśriyaṃ cānubhavatyajastram | śreyāṃsi kāryāṇyavanīśapūjāṃ bhāgyeśadāye vijadevabhaktim || 10||
With his wife, sons, grandsons and hosts of relatives he enjoys fortune and prosperity; he carves out good works, homage of kings and devotion to the venerable deity - [all] bestowed by the giver, lord of the 9th.
यत्कार्यमारब्धमुपैत्यनेन तस्यैव सिद्धिं सुखजीवनं च । कीर्तिं प्रतिष्ठां कुशलप्रवृत्तिं मानोन्नतिं कर्मपतेर्दशायाम् ॥ ११॥
yatkāryamārabdhamupaityanena tasyaiva siddhiṃ sukhajīvanaṃ ca | kīrtiṃ pratiṣṭhāṃ kuśalapravṛttiṃ mānonnatiṃ karmapaterdaśāyām || 11||
Whatever work is begun succeeds; there come a happy living, fame, establishment, skilled conduct and rising honour - in the dasha of the lord of deeds.
एश्वर्यमव्याहतमिष्टबन्धुसमागमं भृत्यजनांश्च दासान् । संसारसौभाग्यमहोदयं च लभेत लाभाधिपतेर्दाशायाम् ॥ १२॥
eśvaryamavyāhatamiṣṭabandhusamāgamaṃ bhṛtyajanāṃśca dāsān | saṃsārasaubhāgyamahodayaṃ ca labheta lābhādhipaterdāśāyām || 12||
Unobstructed wealth, meeting of desired friends and servants, worldly splendour and a great rise come in the dasha of the lord of gains.
व्ययेशितुर्वयस्यतिव्ययं करोति सज्जने । अघौघनाशिनीं शुभक्रियां महीशमान्यताम् ॥ १३॥
vyayeśiturvayasyativyayaṃ karoti sajjane | aghaughanāśinīṃ śubhakriyāṃ mahīśamānyatām || 13||
Under the expenditure-lord's dasha he spends among the good; a heap of sins wears away; auspicious rites and the esteem of kings come.
वक्रगस्य निजतुङ्गसुहृत्सुस्थानगस्य दशाफलमेवम् । शत्रुनीचगृहमौढ्यषडन्त्यछिद्रगस्य तु फलान्यपि वक्ष्ये ॥ १४॥
vakragasya nijatuṅgasuhṛtsusthānagasya daśāphalamevam | śatrunīcagṛhamauḍhyaṣaḍantyachidragasya tu phalānyapi vakṣye || 14||
For a lord in own exaltation, own house or with his friends such were the effects; now relate the results when he stands in an enemy's sign, fallen, or in houses of loss and lapse.
दुःस्थेलग्नपतौ निरोधनमुपैत्यज्ञातवासं भयं व्याध्याधीनपरक्रियाभिगमनं स्थानच्युतिं चापदम् । जाड्यं संसदि वाक्कुटुम्बचलनं दुष्पत्रिकां दृग्रुजं वाग्दोषं द्रविणव्ययं नृपभयं दुःस्थे द्वितीयाधिपे ॥ १५॥
duḥsthelagnapatau nirodhanamupaityajñātavāsaṃ bhayaṃ vyādhyādhīnaparakriyābhigamanaṃ sthānacyutiṃ cāpadam | jāḍyaṃ saṃsadi vākkuṭumbacalanaṃ duṣpatrikāṃ dṛgrujaṃ vāgdoṣaṃ draviṇavyayaṃ nṛpabhayaṃ duḥsthe dvitīyādhipe || 15||
Confinement, an unknown abode, fear, subjection to disease and to others' employ, loss of station and calamity; dullness, harsh speech in assemblies, reversal of the family, want of provision and eye-ailments; faulty speech, waste of wealth and the king's menace.
दुश्चिक्याधिपतौ सहोदरमृतिं कार्ये दुरालोचनामन्तःशत्रु निपीडनं परिभवं तद्गर्वभङ्ग वदेत् । मातृक्लेशमरिष्टमिष्ठसुहृदां क्षेत्रगृहोपप्लुतिं पश्वश्वादिविनाशनं जलभयं पातालनाथेऽबले ॥ १६॥
duścikyādhipatau sahodaramṛtiṃ kārye durālocanāmantaḥśatru nipīḍanaṃ paribhavaṃ tadgarvabhaṅga vadet | mātṛkleśamariṣṭamiṣṭhasuhṛdāṃ kṣetragṛhopaplutiṃ paśvaśvādivināśanaṃ jalabhayaṃ pātālanāthe'bale || 16||
Death of a co-born, perverse counsel on work, harassment by hidden enemies, humiliation and broken pride; mother's distress, misfortunes of dear friends, upheaval of field and home; ruin of cattle and steeds, dread of water - worse when he, weak, stands in the nether houses.
वीर्योने प्रतिभापतौ सुतमृतिर्बुद्धिभ्रमं पञ्चनामध्वानं ह्युदरामयं नरपतेः कोपं स्वशक्तिक्षयम् । चोराद्भीतिमनर्थतां च दमनं रोगान् बहून्दुष्कृतिं भृत्यत्वं लभतेऽवमानमयशः षष्ठेशदाये व्रणम् ॥ १७॥
vīryone pratibhāpatau sutamṛtirbuddhibhramaṃ pañcanāmadhvānaṃ hyudarāmayaṃ narapateḥ kopaṃ svaśaktikṣayam | corādbhītimanarthatāṃ ca damanaṃ rogān bahūnduṣkṛtiṃ bhṛtyatvaṃ labhate'vamānamayaśaḥ ṣaṣṭheśadāye vraṇam || 17||
Death of a child, confusion of mind, taste for drink, abdominal illness, the king's wrath and decay of strength; fear of thieves, unprofitableness and punishment; many diseases and misdeeds; servitude, dishonour, failing fame and wounds.
जामातुर्व्यसनं कलत्रविरहं स्त्रीहेत्वनर्थागमं द्यूनेशे विबलिन्यसत्यभिरतिं गुह्यामयं चाटनम् । रन्ध्रेशायुषि शोकमोहमदमात्सर्यादिमूर्च्छोच्छ्रितिं दारिद्र्यं भ्रमणं वदेदपयशोव्याधीनवज्ञां मृतिम् ॥ १८॥
jāmāturvyasanaṃ kalatravirahaṃ strīhetvanarthāgamaṃ dyūneśe vibalinyasatyabhiratiṃ guhyāmayaṃ cāṭanam | randhreśāyuṣi śokamohamadamātsaryādimūrcchocchritiṃ dāridryaṃ bhramaṇaṃ vadedapayaśovyādhīnavajñāṃ mṛtim || 18||
Grief from the daughter-in-law, parting from the wife, misery entering through women; under a weak 7th lord: crafty intimacy, secret ailments and roaming; under the 8th-lord's: sorrow, delusion, drink, envy, fainting fits, poverty, loss of good name, chronic disease - and death.
पूर्वोपासितदेवकोपमशुभं जायातनूजापदं दौष्कृत्यं स्वगुरोः पितुश्च निधनं दैन्यं शुभे दुर्बले । यद्यत्कर्म करोति तत्तदफलं स्यान्मानभङ्गो नभोभावे दुर्गुणतां प्रवासमशुभं दुर्वृत्तमापन्नताम् ॥ १९॥
pūrvopāsitadevakopamaśubhaṃ jāyātanūjāpadaṃ dauṣkṛtyaṃ svaguroḥ pituśca nidhanaṃ dainyaṃ śubhe durbale | yadyatkarma karoti tattadaphalaṃ syānmānabhaṅgo nabhobhāve durguṇatāṃ pravāsamaśubhaṃ durvṛttamāpannatām || 19||
The deities once worshipped turn wrathful, wife and child suffer, misconduct grows, one's guru and father die and poverty descends - when the benefic lord stands weak; in the sky-house comes the breaking of honour, ill qualities, inauspicious exile and debased conduct.
श्रवणमशुभवाचां भ्रतृकष्टं सुतातिं भवपवयसि दैन्यं वञ्चनं कर्णरोगम् । बहुरुजमपमानं बन्धनं सर्वसम्पत्क्षयमपरशशीवाऽयाति रिःफेशदाये ॥ २०॥
śravaṇamaśubhavācāṃ bhratṛkaṣṭaṃ sutātiṃ bhavapavayasi dainyaṃ vañcanaṃ karṇarogam | bahurujamapamānaṃ bandhanaṃ sarvasampatkṣayamaparaśaśīvā'yāti riḥpheśadāye || 20||
Inauspicious words come to one's ears; the brother is distressed, the child strained; poverty, cheating and ear-disease; many aches, insult, bondage and the loss of all possessions - in the latter half of the dasha of that weak giver.
मंज्ञायां यदगाच्च कारकविधिश्लोकेषु यज्जल्पितं कर्माजीवनिरूपितं फलमिदं यद्रोगचिरताविधौ । यद्यस्योक्षणयोगसंभवफलं भावेशयोगोद्भवं भावेशैरपि भावगैरपि फलं वाच्यं दशायामिह ॥ २१॥
maṃjñāyāṃ yadagācca kārakavidhiślokeṣu yajjalpitaṃ karmājīvanirūpitaṃ phalamidaṃ yadrogaciratāvidhau | yadyasyokṣaṇayogasaṃbhavaphalaṃ bhāveśayogodbhavaṃ bhāveśairapi bhāvagairapi phalaṃ vācyaṃ daśāyāmiha || 21||
Whatever results stand declared in the verses on the kārakas' duties, whatever fruit follows from livelihood's ordinances and disease inquirings, and whatever arises from the meeting of bhava-lords and those seated in bhavas - all is to be declared under the dashas here.
वर्गोत्तमांशस्थदशा शुभप्रदा मिश्रैव सा चास्तमिते च नीचगे । मृत्युव्ययारीशदशापहारयोस्तत्र स्थितस्याप्यशुभं फलं भवेत् ॥ २२॥
vargottamāṃśasthadaśā śubhapradā miśraiva sā cāstamite ca nīcage | mṛtyuvyayārīśadaśāpahārayostatra sthitasyāpyaśubhaṃ phalaṃ bhavet || 22||
The dasha of a lord settled in a vargottama portion is wholly auspicious; it turns mixed when he stands combust or in a fallen sign; in the sub-periods of death-, loss- and enemy-lords, even for the one seated there, the fruit is inauspicious.
क्रूरग्रहस्यैव दशापहारे त्रिपञ्चसप्तर्क्षपतेविपाके । तथैव जन्माष्टमनाथभुक्तौ चोरारिपीडां लभतेऽतिदुःखम् ॥ २३॥
krūragrahasyaiva daśāpahāre tripañcasaptarkṣapatevipāke | tathaiva janmāṣṭamanāthabhuktau corāripīḍāṃ labhate'tiduḥkham || 23||
In a cruel planet's apahāra, in the mahādashas of the lords of 3-5-7, and likewise in the bhuktis of the birth, the 8th and the lordless - one meets thieving foes and utmost misery.
शनेश्चतुर्थी च गुरोस्तु षष्ठी दशा कुजाह्योर्यदि पऽचमी सा । कष्ट भवेद्राश्यवसानभागस्थितस्य दुःस्थानपतेस्तथैव ॥ २४॥
śaneścaturthī ca gurostu ṣaṣṭhī daśā kujāhyoryadi pa'camī sā | kaṣṭa bhavedrāśyavasānabhāgasthitasya duḥsthānapatestathaiva || 24||
Be it the fourth under Saturn, or Jupiter's sixth, or that of a fifth under Mars - hardship befalls the one standing in a sign's final portion with an afflicted house-lord.
ऊर्ध्वास्यतुङ्गभवनस्थितभूमिजस्य कर्मायगस्य हि दशा विदधाति राज्यम् । जित्वा रिपून्विपुलवाहनसैन्ययुक्तां राज्यश्रियं वितनुतेऽधिकमन्नदानम् ॥ २५॥
ūrdhvāsyatuṅgabhavanasthitabhūmijasya karmāyagasya hi daśā vidadhāti rājyam | jitvā ripūnvipulavāhanasainyayuktāṃ rājyaśriyaṃ vitanute'dhikamannadānam || 25||
The dasha of Mars, seated in the upturned and exalted stations as the karma-lord, confers dominion: having conquered his foes, he spreads royal glory with vast forces and greater gifts of food.
स्वोच्चस्थितो भृगुसुतो व्ययकर्मगो वा लाभेऽपि वाऽस्तरहितो न च पापयुक्तः । तस्याब्दपाकसमये बहुरत्नपूर्णो धीमान्विशालविभवो जयति प्रशस्तः ॥ २६॥
svoccasthito bhṛgusuto vyayakarmago vā lābhe'pi vā'starahito na ca pāpayuktaḥ | tasyābdapākasamaye bahuratnapūrṇo dhīmānviśālavibhavo jayati praśastaḥ || 26||
Venus stationed in own exaltation, or in the 12th, 10th or 11th, free from combustion and unallied with malefics - at his annual-dasha's season the wise overflows with jewels and noble estate.
नीचारिषष्ठव्ययसंश्रिता हि शुभाः प्रयच्छन्त्यशुभानि सर्वे । शुभेतरास्त्वेषु गताः प्रयच्छन्त्यमोघदुःखानि दशासु तेषम् ॥ २७॥
nīcāriṣaṣṭhavyayasaṃśritā hi śubhāḥ prayacchantyaśubhāni sarve | śubhetarāstveṣu gatāḥ prayacchantyamoghaduḥkhāni daśāsu teṣam || 27||
Planets seated in a fallen sign, an enemy's, or the 6th and 12th - though of benefic quality - all render unfervid and adverse results; the non-benefics grant unbending sorrow in their dashas.
दशेशत्रोररिगेहभाजो लग्नेशशत्रोरपि वाऽथ भुक्तौ । शत्रोर्भयं स्थानलयः तदास्य स्निग्धोऽपि शत्रुत्वमुपैति नूनम् ॥ २८॥
daśeśatrorarigehabhājo lagneśaśatrorapi vā'tha bhuktau | śatrorbhayaṃ sthānalayaḥ tadāsya snigdho'pi śatrutvamupaiti nūnam || 28||
If a period falls in the sign of the dasha-lord's enemy, in that enemy's house, or in the bhukti of an enemy - there come foes' fear and loss of station; even the warmly wishing turns hostile.
यद्भावगः पाकपतिर्दशेशात्तद्भावजातानि फलानि कुर्यात् । विपक्षरिःफाष्टमभावगश्चेद्दुःखं विदध्यादितरत्र सौख्यम् ॥ २९॥
yadbhāvagaḥ pākapatirdaśeśāttadbhāvajātāni phalāni kuryāt | vipakṣariḥphāṣṭamabhāvagaścedduḥkhaṃ vidadhyāditaratra saukhyam || 29||
Whatever bhava the sub-period lord reaches, that bhava's native fruits are rendered; if he comes to the 8th or to an adversary's place, he deals distress; elsewhere, ease.
स्वोच्चत्रिकोणस्वहितारिनीचे पूर्णं त्रिपादार्द्धपदाल्पशून्यम् । क्रमाच्छुभं चेदशुभं विलोमाट् मूढे ग्रहे नीचसमं फलं स्यात् ॥ ३०॥
svoccatrikoṇasvahitārinīce pūrṇaṃ tripādārddhapadālpaśūnyam | kramācchubhaṃ cedaśubhaṃ vilomāṭ mūḍhe grahe nīcasamaṃ phalaṃ syāt || 30||
In own exaltation, trine, own or friendly seats, and even in debilitation - fullness, three-quarters, half, quarter, scant and void - ordered thus they avail for good; reversed, the fruit follows like the fallen one's.
मन्दमान्द्यगुखरेशरन्ध्रपाःतन्नवांशपतयोऽपि ये ग्रहाः । तेषु दुर्बलदशा मृतिप्रदा कष्टभे चरति सूर्यनन्दने ॥ ३१॥
mandamāndyagukhareśarandhrapāḥtannavāṃśapatayo'pi ye grahāḥ | teṣu durbaladaśā mṛtipradā kaṣṭabhe carati sūryanandane || 31||
Even the ninth-division lords (navāṃśa-patis) - weak in a dasha's season - can deal death; the son of the Sun furrows onward in travail.
मृतीशनाथस्थितभांशकेशयोः खरत्रिभागेश्वरयोर्बलीयसः । दशागमे मृत्युयुक्तभांशकत्रिकोणगे देवगुरौ तनुक्षयः ॥ ३२॥
mṛtīśanāthasthitabhāṃśakeśayoḥ kharatribhāgeśvarayorbalīyasaḥ | daśāgame mṛtyuyuktabhāṃśakatrikoṇage devagurau tanukṣayaḥ || 32||
At the dasha's arriving, for one strong in the seats of the death-lords and of the two third-ninth owners, or with Jupiter riding the trine - the body wastes.
चतुष्टयस्था गुरुजन्मलग्नपा भवन्ति मध्ये वयसः सुखप्रदाः । क्रमेण पृष्ठोभयमस्तकोदयस्थितोऽन्त्यमध्यप्रथमेषु पाकदः ॥ ३३॥
catuṣṭayasthā gurujanmalagnapā bhavanti madhye vayasaḥ sukhapradāḥ | krameṇa pṛṣṭhobhayamastakodayasthito'ntyamadhyaprathameṣu pākadaḥ || 33||
Of the four gurus - of Jupiter, of birth, and of a lagna-ruler - those seated in the midst hold out happy years; then last, other and first-ranked chairs, in order, offer their pākas (seasonals).
यद्भावगो गोचरतो विलग्नात्दशेश्वरः स्वोच्चसुहृद्गृहस्थः । तद्भावपुष्टिं कुरुते तदानीं बलान्वितश्चेज्जननेऽपि तस्य ॥ ३४॥
yadbhāvago gocarato vilagnātdaśeśvaraḥ svoccasuhṛdgṛhasthaḥ | tadbhāvapuṣṭiṃ kurute tadānīṃ balānvitaścejjanane'pi tasya || 34||
Whatever bhava the dasha lord, journeying in transit from lagna on, reaches in own exaltation or a friend's abode - that bhava he strengthens at that time; and [so he does even where weak] at birth, provided he stands empowered.
बलोनितो जन्मनि पाकनाथो मौढ्यं स्वनीचं रिपुमन्दिरं वा । प्राप्तश्च यद्भावमुपैति चारात्तद्भावनाशं कुरुते तदानीम् ॥ ३५॥
balonito janmani pākanātho mauḍhyaṃ svanīcaṃ ripumandiraṃ vā | prāptaśca yadbhāvamupaiti cārāttadbhāvanāśaṃ kurute tadānīm || 35||
To the dasha-lord weak at birth, when in transit he arrives at his fall, in own debilitation, in an enemy's hall or whatever [such] bhava he comes to - at that time he spoils that bhava.
दशेशस्य तुङ्गे सुहृद्भे दशेशात् त्रिषत्कर्मलाभत्रिकोणास्तभेषु । यदा चारगत्या समायाति चन्द्रः हुभं संविधत्तेऽन्यथा चेदरिष्टम् ॥ ३६॥
daśeśasya tuṅge suhṛdbhe daśeśāt triṣatkarmalābhatrikoṇāstabheṣu | yadā cāragatyā samāyāti candraḥ hubhaṃ saṃvidhatte'nyathā cedariṣṭam || 36||
While the dasha-lord dwells in an exalted or friendly house, and also in the 3rd, 6th, 10th, 11th and trines from himself - when the Moon by her swift course draws near, good is brought about; otherwise affliction.
पाकप्रभुर्गोचरतः स्वनीचं मौढ्यं यदायाति विपक्षभं वा । कष्टं विदध्यात्स्वगृहं स्वतुङ्गं वक्रं गतः सौख्यफलं तदानीम् ॥ ३७॥
pākaprabhurgocarataḥ svanīcaṃ mauḍhyaṃ yadāyāti vipakṣabhaṃ vā | kaṣṭaṃ vidadhyātsvagṛhaṃ svatuṅgaṃ vakraṃ gataḥ saukhyaphalaṃ tadānīm || 37||
When the dasha-ruler in transit comes to his own fallen seat or a rival's, he deals hardship; bound for his own house or exaltation, [then] ease; and gone retrograde he is suited to beget delight.
पाकेशस्य शुभप्रदस्य भवनं तुङ्गं प्रपन्ने यदा सूर्ये तत्फलसिद्धिमेति गुरुणाप्येवं फलं चिन्तयेत् । नीचं कष्टफलप्रदस्य च दशानाथस्य वैरिस्थलं प्राप्ते भास्वति गोचरेण लभते तस्यैव कष्टं फलम् ॥ ३८॥
pākeśasya śubhapradasya bhavanaṃ tuṅgaṃ prapanne yadā sūrye tatphalasiddhimeti guruṇāpyevaṃ phalaṃ cintayet | nīcaṃ kaṣṭaphalapradasya ca daśānāthasya vairisthalaṃ prāpte bhāsvati gocareṇa labhate tasyaiva kaṣṭaṃ phalam || 38||
When a benefic-natured dasha-ruler stands in his own or exalted seat, as the Sun [transits] there, that fruit reaches its perfection; so with the passage of Jupiter too one should reckon. For the fallen or enemy-seated hardship-ruler, on the Sun's bright transit, that very hardship fruits.
येन ग्रहेण सहितो भुजगाधिनाथस्तत्खेटजातगुणदोषफलानि कुर्यात् । सर्पान्वितः स तु खगः शुभदोऽपि कष्टं दुःखं दशान्त्यसमये कुरुते विशेषात् ॥ ३९॥
yena graheṇa sahito bhujagādhināthastatkheṭajātaguṇadoṣaphalāni kuryāt | sarpānvitaḥ sa tu khagaḥ śubhado'pi kaṣṭaṃ duḥkhaṃ daśāntyasamaye kurute viśeṣāt || 39||
With whatever planet the serpents' overlord (Rahu) stands conjoined, that dasha yields the tutelage, faults and deeds of that_theta; when the planet is Rahu-allied, even being a giver of good, it works special grief at the dasha's closing beat.
द्वावर्थकामाविह मारकाख्यौ तदीश्वरस्तत्र गतो बलाढ्यः । हन्ति स्वपाके निधनेश्वरो वा व्ययेश्वरो वऽप्यतिदुर्बलश्चेत् ॥ ४०॥
dvāvarthakāmāviha mārakākhyau tadīśvarastatra gato balāḍhyaḥ | hanti svapāke nidhaneśvaro vā vyayeśvaro va'pyatidurbalaścet || 40||
The two - wealth and delight-of-desire - are called marakas; their lord, or the death-lord, or the lord of the 12th, if [only he] be very strong [in them] - slays in his own dasha; and when more than feeble, still [he kills].
