Obstacles to break Raja Yogas.
581. lf the Sun occupies the 10th degree of Libra, all Raja Yogas will be destroyed.
Notes: “Kujasya dasame Bhaage” an incoherent term meaning “the 10th degree (or Navamsa) of Mars” correctly reads in Saravali as “Jookasya Dasame Bhage” meaning the 10th degree of Libra (deep debility of the Sun). The translation is for ‘the correct-version.
582. Single-handedly the Sun in deep debility will destroy all the Raja Yogas even if some planets are in Moola Trikonas, own signs and exaltations.
Notes: Here a re-emphasis is laid on the concept reflected in the previous sloka. The present sloka need not give an impression that the previous one could be different.
583. If Jupiter is in (the space of deep) debility in Capricorn ascendant, without the Moon’s being in an even sign, the person will incur grief and poverty and be troubled by carnal lust.
584. Should there be Kemadruma Yoga, and the Moon is unaspected by some planet, Raja Yogas will vanish and the native will be of bad conduct.
585. If three, four or more planets be in debility, even a person of royal scion will resort to beggary. He will be very much grieved and very dirty.
586. If 5 or 6 planets are found in bitter enemies’ signs, or are in combustion, as the Sun and the Moon are not in exaltation, all Raja Yogas will be demolished.
587. Venus in debility will destroy even an incomparable kingdom of the native.
Notes: Instead of simply seeing Venus in debilitation, it should be ensured that Venus is in deep debilitation to cause the above effect.
588. So far have been stated fructifications of Raja Yogas and their cancellation. Good and bad effects should be declared after assessing the merits of these yogas.
Thus of obstacles to Raja Yogas.
