Sloka 22½ – 23½: Dasa periods and their sub periods of planets owning Kendra houses will prove auspicious, while those of planets owning the 2nd, 3rd and 11th houses will be medium. The Dasas, etc., of planets owing the 6th, the 8th and the 12th houses will always prove bad to the native. These effects should be predicted in the respective Dasas and Bhuktis of planets after a scrutiny of the lord of the Dasa and the house occupied by him.
Sloka 23½ – 24½: If the (Bhukti-natha) be posited in the 12th, 6th or 8th place from the house oc¬cupied by the lord of a Dasa, he then becomes the enemy of the Dasa-lord. The planet in the 11th, the 2nd, 3rd, 4th, 5th, 9th or 10th house from the (Dasanatha) is said to be greatly auspicious to the native. The planet in the 7th house from the Dasanatha and the one in conjunction with him are also productive of good.
Sloka 24½ – 25½: If the Dasanatha be malefic and the Bhuktinatha be benefic and not in conjunction with the same, the effect will be unfavourable. If the Bhukti¬natha be benefic and be associated with the Dasanatha, the effect wm be mixed. The Bhuktinatha, even if he be a Yogakaraka planet, will become more unfavourable and distressing if he be not conjoined with the Dasanatha.
If the Dasanatha has got power to cause both Yoga'<ii1d'[‘ death, he will give the effects of the Yoga first in his own Bhuktl.
Sloka 25½ – 26½. If the entire period over which the above-mentioned Yogakaraka rules be fully auspicious, and the Bhuktis of the various malefic planets be like¬ wise favourable, the Yogakaraka planet postpones the causing of death to the native. Such a Dasanatha will never cause mixed effects. If he does, the Dasa will only prove completely fruitless. So opine the wise.
Sloka 26½ – 27½: Jupiter and Venus in their mutual Dasas and Bhuktis confer on the native kingship or the place of a. minister} much wealth and happiness through wife and children. There will be performance of sacrifices, birth of children, celebration of marriages and other simi¬lar auspicious functions, provided the two planets are strong and occupy good Bhavas and are also aspected by or conjoined with benefic planets.
Sloka 27½ – 28½; The same two planets if posited in such a way that they are either quincunx to each other or are mutually placed in the 2nd and 12th; or if they two be aspected by or conjoined with the lords of these houses; or if they be themselves the owners of these houses and be at the same time aspected by or in conjunc¬tion with malefics, and are weak in positional strength, etc., they will during their Dasas bring on the sepation of wife and sons, displeasure of a high Brahmin-chief, trouble through intrigues with females, royal displeasure and fear of epilepsy.
Sloka 28½ – 29½: If Venus and Saturn posited in their exaltation, Swakshetra or Vargottamamsa be strong and ‘equally powerful to cause Yoga, they will, in their mutual Dasas and Bhuktis, make the native a beggar seeking alms and a powerless being, even if he be born a king or a Kubera. Should however one of the two be strong and the other weak, the stronger one will give the Yoga.
Venus and Saturn are natural friends and any student of astrology, logy will expect good results in their mutual Dasat and Bhuktis. But the sense contained in this sloka is contrary to the above statement. If the two planets are well placed, the Bhukti of Venus in Saturn’s Dasa and ‘Vice versa will be the worst periods the native can possibly expect. The stronger the two planets are the worse will be the effect.
Sloka 29½ – 30½. If both of them be weak and be so mutually placed that one occupied the 12th, the 8th or the 6th from the other, or happen to be owners of such places; or be conjoined with the lords of these houses, they become auspicious and confer wealth and happiness on the native. If one of them own, an auspicious house and the other an unfavourable one, even then, hath of them will produce good effects. If they are both malefics, they will prove extremely favourable to the native.
Sloka 30 ½ – 31½. Saturn and the Sun if they be placed in their own or exalted signs or in the corresponding Navamsas and are in Kona or Kendra positions, or be ‘owners of these houses, will bring to the person concerned royal favour, wealth and the like in the Sun’s Bhukti of Saturn’s Dasa, and happiness, wealth and victory in Saturn’s Bhukti of the Sun’s Dasa. If the two planets in question be both inauspicious, they cause distress to the ‘native.
31½ – 32½. If Mars and Jupiter, in the same manner be strong, occupy favourable house and possess the aspect or association of strong benefic planets, they bring Rajayoga to the native; they will bring joy, all kinds of enjoyments and pleasure, sons endowed with long life, marriage and other pleasant functions. If otherwise, they will produce contrary effects.
Sloka 32 ½ – 33 ½. Jupiter and Mercury, similarly strong, will nuke the motive do good actions, learned, clever in trading and endowed with wife, children and happiness. Venus and Mercury, Jupiter and the Moon, the Moon and Venus, Jupiter and the Sun, the Sun and Mars, the Sun and Mercury, each of these pairs will produce effects similar to those stated for Jupiter and Mercury.
Sloka 33 ½ – 34 ½. Find the exact position of the Sun in a nativity. In any required year after birth, find our on what day, hour, etc., the Sun in his periodical course occupies that exact position. That day is called the solar year day of the native. Find out the Lagna at the time and the positions of planets, and the several Bhavas; also calculate the Saptavargaja bala of the planets. The results will reveal the nature of the effects for that year to the native. The number of the asterism in which the Moon is at the time when reckoned from the natal star should be divided by9. The remainder will denote the order of the Dasa reckoned from the Sun.
Sloka 34½ – 36½. From the exact position of the Moon at the time, find out how many more ghatikas the Moon has still to pass in the star in which she is. This when multiplied by the Dasa days mentioned below of the planet concerned and divided by the total ghatikas taken by the Moon to travel through the complete asterism will reveal the number of days, ghatikas, etc. of the (first) starting Dasa still remaining at the beginning of the new year. 110, 60, 32, 40, 48, 56, 4, 5 and 10 are the numbers in their order representing the Dasa, period 365 days in a year of 365 days for, the Sun, the Moon, Mars, Mercury, Jupiter, Venus, Saturn, Rahu and the Lagna respectively. The second and succeeding Dasas during the year have to be reckoned in this order alone. The effects – good or bad – for any of the Dasas should be predicted after a full reference to the strength – positional, etc. – of the planet concerned, the Lagna at the entry of the year, the Bhava occupied by the planet and the several aspects on the same (planet).
The system that is described in the two foregoing slokas enables the reader to have a clear idea as to how his position in life will be in any particular year. The system is unique by itself. The horoscope for any particular, Year depends upon the exact time at which the Sun, during his transit, comes to the position he had occupied at the time of birth. The process of casting such annual horoscopes consists in finding the exact time at which the Sun arrives at his old position in the year concerned. This time marks the beginning of the native’s new year.
