ADHYAYA 1- PADA 2
SU. 1-Adhaswamsograhanam. Having determined the Atmakaraka from among the several planets, ascertain the results of his Navamsa position.
NOTES Among all the planets commencing from Ravi, find out who gets the greatest number of degrees and minutes and determine. as principles already explained, who becomes the Atmakaraka. In Sutra 11 of the first pada it has been clearly enunciated that whichever planet gets the highest number of degrees and minutes, he becomes the Atmakaraka. Such a planet, whoever he may be among the nine planets, must occupy some Navamsa. In all the future sutras, the effects of such Navamsa occupied by the Atmakaraka, the planets who are there and the planets who aspect such Navamsa will be clearly detailed. Find out by mathematical calculations the position of all the planets in degrees and minutes and then the results can easily be foretold in the light of the following sutras. Find out the Atmakaraka and place him in the proper Navamsa. Prepare also the Navamsa Chakra correctly.
SU. 2.-Panchamooshikamarjaraha. If the Atmakaraka occupies Mesha Navamsa, then the person will be subjected to the fears and bites of rats, cats, and other similar animals.
NOTES Pancha means one or Mesha. Pa stands for 1 in Pavarga. Cha stands for 6 in the Tavarga. Thus we get 16, reading in the reverse order we get 61. Divide this by 12 we get the remainder 1 and this stands for the first sign in the Zodiac or Mesha Navamsa.
SU. 3.–Tathra chatushpadaha. If Atmakaraka is in Taurus Navamsa, there will be fear from quadrupeds.
NOTES Ta means 6 and Ra means 2 or 62 reversed we get 26, divided by 1.2 we get 2 remainder which means the 2nd house from Mesha or Vrishabha Navamsa. If Atmakaraka occupies Vrishabha Navamsa the person will have gains and happiness from quadrupeds like cattle, horses, elephants, etc. Some commentators say he will have troubles and worries through them. I think. when Atmakaraka is weak or has evil aspects or associations troubles should be predicted. Others write prosperity from them.
SU. 4. Mrithyow kandooh sthotilyam cha. If Atmakaraka occupies Mithuna the person will suffer from corpulence, itches and cutaneous eruptions.
NOTES . Ma represents 5 and Ya represents 1 or 51 reading inversely we get 15. Divided by 12 we have the balance of 3 and this represents the 3rd Navamsa from Mesha or Mithuna.
SU. 5. -Dure jalakushtadih. If the Atmakaraka occupies Kataka Navamsa, dangers and troubles come from watery places and leprosy.
NOTES Da stands for 8 and Ra represents for 2 or 82. Reversing it, we have 28. Divided by 12 we get the balance of 4 and this refers to Kataka as the fourth from Mesha. Dirty form of leprosy or watery disease rises from blood corruption and the use of filthy water.
SU. 6. –Seshaha s wapadan i. If the Atmakaraka joins Simha Navamsa, troubles will come through dogs and such canine animals.
NOTES Ssa represents 5 and Sha indicates 6 or 56, reading backwards we have 65. Divided by 12 we get 5 remainders and Simha counts as the 5th from Mesha. Here in all these Sutras the class of animals or diseases is indicated and the reader has to use his intelligence.
SU. 7. Mrithyuvajjayognikanascha. If Atmakaraka is in Kanya Navamsa,
the native will suffer from fire, itches, and corpulence.
NOTES Ja represents 8 and ya denotes 1. We get 81, in the reverse order we get 18, divided by 12 have the balance 6 and Kanya Navamsa represents the 6th from Mesha. If the Atmakaraka joins Kanya Navamsa the person will suffer from the troubles indicated by the 3rd Rasi or Mithuna and also from fires. But in Mithuna the author only said that suffering will come from corpulence and itches. From this Sutra it means that in the Mithunamsa there will also be trouble from tires.
SU. 8. -Labhe vanijyam. If the Atmakaraka joins Thula Navamsa, the person will make much money by merchandise.
NOTES La denotes 3 and Bha stands for 4, this stands as 34. In the reverse order it is 43, divided by 12 we get 7 as the remainder. Thula stands as the 7th Navamsa from Mesha. The various kinds of articles in merchandise have to be found out by the nature of the Rasi, its lord, the planets who are in conjunction and the aspects they have.
SU. 9.-Arrajalasareesrupaha sthanyachanischa. If the Atmakaraka joins Vrischikamsa, the person will have fears and dangers from watery animals, snakes and he will also have no milk from his mother.
NOTES Atra:Aa O-Ra 2-02, reversed it means 20 divided by 12 we get a balance of 8 which signifies Vrischika counting from Mesha Navamsa. When he is a child he will have to be nursed and suckled by others for want of milk in his mother’s breast. There are some women who have plenty of milk in their breasts and who nurse their children with their own milk and sometimes the milk will be sufficient for even two or three children. Their breasts may not be large or heavy but their lacteal glands do make brisk work and secrete milk. There are, on the other hand, a large number of women who have large lumps of breasts without any milk, but full of flesh and making the breasts attractive and heavy. The author apparently considers that the absence of milk in the mother will be a misfortune for the child The artificial feeding of children from nipples attached to feeding bottles has removed this misfortune, to some extent. Remember it is not the mother who feeds the infant. A rubber bottle is not a mother’s holy breast. Nor does it contain the natural milk of the mother with the maternal love and affection pervading throughout its contents.
