537. The Moon in Pisces: One with the Moon in Pisces will have a powerful position in the field of fine arts (i.e. an expert in the field), will win even unfavourable people, be learned in scriptures, will have a charming physique and knowledge of music and be attached to religion. He will join many females, be endowed with favourable words, serve a king and be nearly or somewhat irascible. He will have a large head, be an ocean of happiness, wealthy, defeated by women, be of good disposition, be interested in sailing and be truthful.
Notes: The expression “Silpa + Utpaata + Abhichara” in the first line should read as “Silpa + Utpanna + Adhikaara” which denotes powerful position in the field of fine arts (or V astu Sastra). The former expression is defective in composition and is not capable of meaning anything tangible.
“Saukhya Bhaak” in the second line should read as “Saumya Vaaak” which means the native will be favourable to others in respect of his speech. Regarding happiness, the person is described as an ocean of happiness by the term” Sukha Nidhi”.
538 – 543. The Moon in Pisces with Others’ Aspects: (a) One with the Moon in Pisces with the Sun’s aspect will be fierce, lustful, happy, an army chief and will have plenty of wealth and accumulated fortunes.
(b) If the planet Moon placed in Pisces receives the aspect of Mars, the subject will be humiliated and bereft of happiness. He is the son of a questionable woman, be attached to sins and be heroic.
(c) Mercury aspecting the Moon in Pisces denotes that the person concerned will be kingly, exceedingly happy, surrounded by excellent women and be overcome by them.
(d) If Jupiter aspects the Moon in Pisces, one will be good ¬looking, fierce in disposition, be the head of a region, will have limited wealth, soft-bodied and be surrounded by many a woman.
(e) Should the Moon in Pisces be in aspect to Venus, one will be endowed with good qualities, be indulgent in (excessive) sexual love and fond of dance, musical instruments and music. He will rob females of their hearts.
(f) With Saturn aspecting the Moon in Pisces, one will be distressed, a source of evil for his mother, be troubled by lust and be bereft of progeny, spouse and sexual enjoyments. He will be mean and fond of ugly women.
Notes: (d) “Limited wealth” denoted by the term “Alpaartham” should be replaced by “Atyaadhyam” the right text, which indicates that the subject will be very rich. This is in tune with the potence of Jupiter’s aspect on the Moon in Pisces.
544. The lord of the Moon sign, the Moon sign itself and the Moon being all in strength will cause fruition of the effects without any obstacle. These effects for Rasi positions should not be mixed up with effects for the planet’s position in a Bhava or house. (That is, Rasi effects and Bhava effects should be differently understood.)
These are the effects for the Moon in Pisces.
