494. One will become a king if Mercury and Saturn are 4th and with reference to Venus while all others are in the 3rd and 11th houses from the ascendant.
495. With Venus and Mercury in an angle from Saturn while others including Jupiter are in their exaltation zones, the native will ascend the throne.
496. If all the planets are in the 3rd, 5th and 11th places with reference to the natal Sun, the subject will be a king’s minister or an army-head.
497. Should the lord of the ascendant be endowed with unaffected rays while malefics are in the 11th from the ascendant, and benefics are in angles, the native will earn a kingdom on his own strength.
498. If malefics occupy the 11th, 3rd and the 6th from the ascendant and beget the aspects of benefic planets, the native will be a virtuous king receiving honours from other kings.
499. If Jupiter at birth is in Aries or Leo, while Mars placed in his own sign is in aspect to the Sun, one of a royal scion will become a king. But there should be no planet in debility in the horoscope.
500. Sunapha, Anapha and Durudhura with reference to the natal Moon have been explained (earlier). If one of these Yogas is present with reference to an angle from the ascendant, one of a royal family will ascend the throne.
Notes: The Moon who is the base for the formation of Sunapha & C should be in an angle from the ascendant. Then the participants should be placed as required from the Moon. That is the Yoga stipulated by the text occurs.
Sunapha occurs when a planet occupies the 2nd from the Moon; Anapha by one in the 12th from the Moon; and Durdhara when both the 12th and 2nd from the Moon are in occupation. With this kind of Yoga occurring when the Moon herself is in an angle (1st, 4th, 7th or 10th) from the ascendant, a still superior Yoga is formed leading to riches and position.
Kemadruma occurs when there is none with the Moon or none in the 2nd/12th from the Moon. But when Kemadruma occurs with Moon in an angle, it would destabilise the entire array of planets to a great extent.
In these Moon-based Yogas, it is well-known the Sun is not taken into consideration.
