nīcādau tat daśā ādyante vadet bhāgyaviparyayam
39. O twice-born (dvija)! If at the commencement (ārambha) of a planetary period, the lord (īśa) is weak (durbala) due to being in a malefic sign (pāparāśi), or if it is debilitated (nīca) or in similar adverse conditions, then one should predict a reversal of fortune (bhāgyaviparyayam) both at the beginning and the end of that specific planetary period (daśā).
यत्र स्थितो नीचखेटस्त्रिकोणे वाऽथ नीचगः ।
तथा राशीश्वरे नीचे सम्बन्धो नीचखेटकैः ॥४०॥
40. yatra sthito nīcakheṭastrikoṇe vā'tha nīcagaḥ .
tathā rāśīśvare nīce sambandho nīcakheṭakaiḥ.
40. yatra sthitaḥ nīcakheṭaḥ trikoṇe vā atha nīcagaḥ
tathā rāśīśvare nīce sambandhaḥ nīcakheṭakaiḥ
40. When a debilitated planet is situated in a trine house (1st, 5th, or 9th), or when it is simply in its sign of debilitation; and similarly, if the lord of the sign (where the debilitated planet is) is also in debilitation and connected with debilitated planets.
भाग्यस्य विपरीतत्वं करोत्येव द्विजोत्तम ।
धनधान्यादिहानिश्च देहे रोगभयं तथा ॥४१॥
41. bhāgyasya viparītatvaṃ karotyeva dvijottama .
dhanadhānyādihāniśca dehe rogabhayaṃ tathā.
41. bhāgyasya viparītatvam karoti eva dvijottama
dhanadhānyādi hāniḥ ca dehe rogabhayam tathā
41. O best among the twice-born (dvijottama)! Such a planetary configuration certainly causes adverse fortune, leading to the loss of wealth and grains, etc., and also fear of disease in the body.
राहोः केतोश्च कुम्भादि वृश्चिकादि चतुष्टयम् ।
स्वभं तत्र समारम्भस्तद्दशायां शुभं भवेत् ॥४२॥
42. rāhoḥ ketośca kumbhādi vṛścikādi catuṣṭayam .
svabhaṃ tatra samārambhastaddaśāyāṃ śubhaṃ bhavet.
42. rāhoḥ ketoḥ ca kumbha ādi vṛścika ādi catuṣṭayam
svabham tatra samārambhaḥ tat daśāyām śubham bhavet
42. The quadruplets of signs, such as Aquarius (kumbhādi) for Rahu and Scorpio (vṛścikādi) for Ketu, are considered their own houses (svabham). When an undertaking (samārambha) is commenced during their planetary period (daśā) while they are in these own signs, it will be auspicious.
यद्दशायां शुभं ब्रूयात्स चेन्मारकसंस्थितः ।
यस्मिन् राशौदशान्तःस्यात्तस्मिन् दृष्टे युतेऽपि वा ॥४३॥
43. yaddaśāyāṃ śubhaṃ brūyātsa cenmārakasaṃsthitaḥ .
yasmin rāśaudaśāntaḥsyāttasmin dṛṣṭe yute'pi vā.
43. yat daśāyām śubham brūyāt sa cet mārakasaṃsthitaḥ
yasmin rāśau daśā antaḥ syāt tasmin dṛṣṭe yute api vā
43. Even if one predicts auspicious results for a certain planetary period (daśā), (these results will not materialize) if the planet is situated in a death-inflicting (māraka) house. Furthermore, if the end of a planetary period occurs in a particular sign, and that sign is either aspected or conjoined...
शुक्रेण विधुना वा स्याद्राजकोपाद्धनक्षयः ।
दशान्तश्चेदरिक्षेत्रे राहुदृष्टयुतेऽपि वा ॥४४॥
44. śukreṇa vidhunā vā syādrājakopāddhanakṣayaḥ .
daśāntaścedarikṣetre rāhudṛṣṭayute'pi vā.
44. śukreṇa vidhunā vā syāt rājakopāt dhana kṣayaḥ
daśā antaḥ cet ari kṣetre rāhu dṛṣṭa yute api vā
44. ...[if the end of a planetary period (daśā) in a sign] is aspected or conjoined by Venus (śukra) or the Moon (vidhu), there may be loss of wealth due to governmental anger (rājakopa). Similarly, if the end of the daśā is in an enemy's sign, or if it is aspected or conjoined by Rahu (rāhu), similar adverse effects may occur.
इदं फलं शनेः पाके न विचिन्त्यं द्विजोत्तम ।
दशाप्रदे नक्रराशौ न विचिन्त्यमिदं फलम् ॥४५॥
45. idaṃ phalaṃ śaneḥ pāke na vicintyaṃ dvijottama .
daśāprade nakrarāśau na vicintyamidaṃ phalam.
45. idam phalam śaneḥ pāke na vicintyam dvijottama
daśāprade nakrarāśau na vicintyam idam phalam
45. O best among the twice-born (dvija), one should not predict this outcome (phalam) during Saturn's (śani) planetary period (pāka). This outcome should also not be predicted if the dasha-lord is situated in the Capricorn (nakrarāśi) sign.
राहुर्दशान्ते सर्वस्वनाशो मरणबन्धने ।
दशान्निर्वासनं वा स्यात्कष्टं वा महदश्नुते ॥४६॥
46. rāhurdaśānte sarvasvanāśo maraṇabandhane .
daśānnirvāsanaṃ vā syātkaṣṭaṃ vā mahadaśnute.
46. rāhuḥ daśānte sarvasvanāśaḥ maraṇabandhane
daśāt nirvāsanam vā syāt kaṣṭam vā mahat aśnute
46. At the conclusion of Rahu's (rāhu) planetary period (dasha), there may be a total loss of all possessions (sarvasvanāśa), death (maraṇa), or imprisonment (bandhana). Alternatively, there could be exile (nirvāsana) or one might experience great distress (kaṣṭa).
तत्त्रिकोणगते पापे निश्चयाद्दुःखमादिशेत् ।
एवं शुभाशुभं सर्वं निश्चयेन वदेद् बुधः ॥४७॥
47. tattrikoṇagate pāpe niścayādduḥkhamādiśet .
evaṃ śubhāśubhaṃ sarvaṃ niścayena vaded budhaḥ.
47. tat trikoṇagate pāpe niścayāt duḥkham ādiśet
evam śubhāśubham sarvam niścayena vadet budhaḥ
47. When a malefic (pāpa) planet is situated in a trine house (trikoṇa), one should certainly (niścaya) predict suffering (duḥkha). In this manner, an expert astrologer (budha) should confidently (niścaya) declare all auspicious and inauspicious outcomes (śubhāśubha).
राह्वाद्याश्रितराशिस्तु भवेद्यदि दशाप्रदः ।
तत्र कालेऽपि पूर्वोक्तं चिन्तनीयं प्रयत्नतः ॥४८॥
48. rāhvādyāśritarāśistu bhavedyadi daśāpradaḥ .
tatra kāle'pi pūrvoktaṃ cintanīyaṃ prayatnataḥ.
48. rāhvādyāśritarāśiḥ tu bhavet yadi daśāpradaḥ
tatra kāle api pūrvoktam cintanīyam prayatnataḥ
48. However, if the zodiac sign (rāśi) occupied by Rahu (rāhu) or other such planets becomes the giver of the planetary period (daśāprada), then even during that time (kāla), the aforementioned (pūrvokta) results should be diligently (prayatna) predicted.
द/सारम्भो दशान्तो वा मारके चेन्न शोभनम् ।
तस्मिन्नेव च राहुश्चन्नरोधो द्रव्यनाशनः ॥४९॥
49. da/sārambho daśānto vā mārake cenna śobhanam .
tasminneva ca rāhuścannarodho dravyanāśanaḥ.
49. daśārambhaḥ daśāntaḥ vā mārake cet na śobhanam
tasmin eva ca rāhuḥ ca cet nirodhaḥ dravyanāśanaḥ
49. The beginning (daśārambha) or end (daśānta) of a planetary period (dasha) in a maraka (killer) house is not auspicious (śobhana). And if, in that very situation, Rahu (rāhu) creates an obstruction (nirodha), it leads to the destruction of wealth (dravyanāśana).
यत्र क्वापि च भे राहौ दशारम्भे विनाशनम् ।
गृहभ्रंशः समुद्दिष्टो धने राहुधनार्तिकृत् ॥५०॥
50. yatra kvāpi ca bhe rāhau daśārambhe vināśanam .
gṛhabhraṃśaḥ samuddiṣṭo dhane rāhudhanārtikṛt.
50. yatra kvāpi ca bhe rāhau daśārambhe vināśanam |
gṛhabhraṃśaḥ samuddiṣṭaḥ dhane rāhudhanārtikṛt
50. Whenever Rāhu is in any zodiac sign at the beginning of its planetary period (daśā), it indicates destruction. Loss of home is declared. If Rāhu is in the second house (dhana), it causes distress concerning wealth.
चन्द्र्शुक्रौ द्वादश चेद्राजकोपो भवेद्ध्रुवम् ।
भौमकेतू तत्र यदि वधोऽग्नेर्महती व्यथा ॥५१॥
51. candrśukrau dvādaśa cedrājakopo bhaveddhruvam .
bhaumaketū tatra yadi vadho'gnermahatī vyathā.
51. candraśukrau dvādaśa cet rājakopaḥ bhavet dhruvam
| bhaumaketū tatra yadi vadhaḥ agneḥ mahatī vyathā
51. If the Moon and Venus are in the twelfth house, royal displeasure will certainly occur. If Mars and Ketu are there (in the twelfth house), then death by fire or great suffering will result.
चेन्द्रशुक्रौ धने विप्र यदि राज्यं प्रयच्छतः ।
दशारम्भे दशान्ते च द्वितीयस्थमिदं फलम् ॥५२॥
52. cendraśukrau dhane vipra yadi rājyaṃ prayacchataḥ .
daśārambhe daśānte ca dvitīyasthamidaṃ phalam.
52. ca indraśukrau dhane vipra yadi rājyam prayacchataḥ
| daśārambhe daśānte ca dvitīyastham idam phalam
52. And if Indra and Venus are in the second house (dhana), O Brahmin, they bestow kingship. This result, stemming from the second house, is observed at the beginning and end of the planetary period (daśā).
एवमर्गलभावानां फलं विज्ञैः प्रदर्शितम् ।
यस्य पापः शुभो वाऽपि ग्रहस्तिष्ठेच्छुभार्गले ॥५३॥
53. evamargalabhāvānāṃ phalaṃ vijñaiḥ pradarśitam .
yasya pāpaḥ śubho vā'pi grahastiṣṭhecchubhārgale.
53. evam argalabhāvānām phalam vijñaiḥ pradarśitam |
yasya pāpaḥ śubhaḥ vā api grahaḥ tiṣṭhet śubhārgale
53. Thus, the wise have explained the results of argala dispositions. If a malefic or benefic planet is situated in an auspicious argala (an astrological influence) for someone...
तेन द्रष्ट्रेक्षिते लग्नं पाबल्यायोपकल्प्यते ।
यदि पश्येद्ग्रहस्तन्न विपरीतार्गलस्थितः ॥५४॥
54. tena draṣṭrekṣite lagnaṃ pābalyāyopakalpyate .
yadi paśyedgrahastanna viparītārgalasthitaḥ.
54. tena draṣṭrā īkṣite lagnam pābalyāya upakalpyate
| yadi paśyet grahaḥ tat na viparītārgalasthitaḥ
54. When the ascendant (lagna) is aspected by that (argala-forming) planet, it is considered for strengthening. However, if a planet aspects the ascendant while itself being situated in a *viparītārgala* (reverse argala) position, then it does not contribute to strength.
तद्भावस्य दशायास्तु विपरीतफलं भवेत् ।
सद्दृष्टेऽपि शुभं ब्रूयान्निर्विशंकं द्विजोत्तम ॥५५॥
55. tadbhāvasya daśāyāstu viparītaphalaṃ bhavet .
saddṛṣṭe'pi śubhaṃ brūyānnirviśaṃkaṃ dvijottama.
55. tadbhāvasya daśāyāḥ tu viparītaphalām bhavet
sad-dṛṣṭe api śubham brūyāt nirviśaṅkam dvijottama
55. During the planetary period (daśā) of a particular house (bhāva), adverse results may occur. However, even if it is aspected by a benefic (graha), O best among the twice-born (dvijottama), one should declare auspicious results without hesitation.
यस्मिन्भावे शुभस्वामिसम्बन्धस्तुङ्गखेचरः ।
स्यात्तद्भावदशायां तु अन्त्यैश्वर्यमखण्डितम् ॥५६॥
56. yasminbhāve śubhasvāmisambandhastuṅgakhecaraḥ .
syāttadbhāvadaśāyāṃ tu antyaiśvaryamakhaṇḍitam.
56. yasmin bhāve śubhasvāmi-sambandhaḥ tuṅga-khecaraḥ
syāt tadbhāvadaśāyām tu antyaiśvaryam akhaṇḍitam
56. If a house (bhāva) is associated with a benefic lord or has an exalted planet (khecara) present, then during the planetary period (daśā) of that house, there will be immense and uninterrupted prosperity.
यद्भावेशः स्वार्थराशिमधितिष्ठति पश्यति ।
स्यातद्भावदशाकाले धनलाभो महत्तरः ॥५७॥
57. yadbhāveśaḥ svārtharāśimadhitiṣṭhati paśyati .
syātadbhāvadaśākāle dhanalābho mahattaraḥ.
57. yad-bhāveśaḥ svārtharāśim adhitiṣṭhati paśyati
syāt tadbhāvadaśākāle dhana-lābhaḥ mahattaraḥ
57. If the lord of a house (bhāva) occupies or aspects a beneficial sign (rāśi), then during the planetary period (daśā) of that house, there will be a very great acquisition of wealth.
यस्माद्व्ययगतो यस्तु तद्दशायां धनक्षयः ।
यस्मात्त्रिकोणगाः पापास्तत्रात्मशुभनाशनम् ॥५८॥
58. yasmādvyayagato yastu taddaśāyāṃ dhanakṣayaḥ .
yasmāttrikoṇagāḥ pāpāstatrātmaśubhanāśanam.
58. yasmāt vyayagataḥ yaḥ tu taddaśāyām dhana-kṣayaḥ
yasmāt trikoṇagāḥ pāpāḥ tatra ātma-śubha-nāśanam
58. From a particular house (yasmāt), if a planet (yaḥ) is situated in the twelfth house (vyaya) from it, then during its planetary period (daśā), there will be a loss of wealth. Furthermore, if malefic planets (pāpāḥ) are located in trine (trikoṇa) from a specific house (yasmāt), then there will be a destruction of auspiciousness for the self (ātman).
पुत्रहानिः पितुः पीडा मनस्तापो महान् भवेत् ।
यस्मात्त्रिकोण्गा रिःफरन्ध्रेशार्कारसूर्यजाः ॥५९॥
59. putrahāniḥ pituḥ pīḍā manastāpo mahān bhavet .

59. putra-hāniḥ pituḥ pīḍā manas-tāpaḥ mahān bhavet yasmāt
trikoṇagāḥ riḥpha-randhra-īśa-arka-āra-sūryajāḥ
59. Loss of children, affliction to the father, and great mental distress may occur if the lords of the twelfth and eighth houses, along with Mars, Sun, and Saturn, are situated in trine (trikoṇa) from a particular house (yasmāt).
पुत्रपीडा द्रव्यहानिस्तत्र केत्वहिसङ्गमे ।
विदेशभ्रमणं क्लेशो भयं चैव पदे पदे ॥६०॥
60. putrapīḍā dravyahānistatra ketvahisaṅgame .
videśabhramaṇaṃ kleśo bhayaṃ caiva pade pade.
60. putrapīḍā dravyahāniḥ tatra ketu-ahi-saṅgame
videśabhramaṇam kleśaḥ bhayam ca eva pade pade
60. When Ketu and Rahu (ahi) are conjoined, there is distress to sons and loss of wealth. Furthermore, there is travel to foreign lands, trouble, and constant fear.
तस्मात्षष्ठाष्टमे क्रूरनीचखेटादयः स्थिताः ।
रोगशत्रुनृपालेभ्यो मुहुः पीडा सुदुःसहा ॥६१॥
61. tasmātṣaṣṭhāṣṭame krūranīcakheṭādayaḥ sthitāḥ .

61. tasmāt ṣaṣṭha-aṣṭame krūra-nīca-kheṭa-ādayaḥ
sthitāḥ roga-śatru-nṛpālebhyaḥ muhuḥ pīḍā suduḥsahā
61. Therefore, if malefic or debilitated planets (grahas) are situated in the sixth and eighth houses, there will be frequent and unbearable suffering originating from diseases, enemies, and rulers.
यस्माच्चतुर्थः क्रूरः स्याद्भूगृहक्षेत्रनाशनम् ।
पशुहानिस्तत्र भौमे गृहदाहः प्रमादकृत् ॥६२॥

62. yasmāt ca caturthaḥ krūraḥ syāt bhū-gṛha-kṣetra-nāśanam
paśuhāniḥ tatra bhaume gṛhadāhaḥ pramādakṛt
62. And if the fourth house (bhāva) contains a malefic (graha), there will be destruction of land, house, and fields. Furthermore, if Mars (Bhauma) is present there, it causes loss of cattle and the burning of the house due to carelessness or calamity.
शनौ हृदयशूलं स्यात्सूर्ये राजप्रकोपनम् ।
सर्वस्वहरणं राहौ विषचौरादिजं भयम् ॥६३॥

63. śanau hṛdayaśūlam syāt sūrye rāja-prakopanam
sarvasvaharaṇam rāhau viṣa-caura-ādi-jam bhayam
63. If Saturn (Śani) is present, there will be heart pain. If the Sun (Sūrya) is present, there will be royal displeasure. If Rahu is present, there will be confiscation of all possessions and fear arising from poison, thieves, and similar sources.
यस्माद् दशमभे राहुः पुण्यतीर्थाटनं भवेत् ।

yasmāt karma-āya-bhāgya-ṛkṣa-gataḥ śobana-khecarāḥ
64. If Rahu is in the tenth house, pilgrimage to holy places will occur. Additionally, because one (a planet or lord) is situated in the houses of action (karma), gains (āya), and fortune (bhāgya), auspicious planets (grahas) are present.

77. vyavasthitasya kheṭasya samare pīḍitasya ca
gāḍhapūḍhasya ca daśāpacitiḥ svaguṇaiḥ phalam
77. For a planet (kheṭa) that is situated (in various positions), afflicted in a planetary war (samare), or deeply distressed, the outcome (phalam) during its planetary period (daśā) is a decline (apacitiḥ), commensurate with its own inherent qualities (svaguṇa).
परमोच्चगतो यस्तु योऽतिवीर्यसमन्वितः ।
सम्पूर्णाख्या दशा तस्य राज्यभूग्यशुभप्रदा ॥७८॥
78. paramoccagato yastu yo'tivīryasamanvitaḥ .
sampūrṇākhyā daśā tasya rājyabhūgyaśubhapradā.
78. paramoccagataḥ yaḥ tu yaḥ ativīryasamanvitaḥ
sampūrṇākhyā daśā tasya rājyabhūgyaśubhapradā
78. For a planet (kheṭa) that is in the highest exaltation (paramocca) and endowed with extreme strength, its planetary period (daśā) is called 'complete' (sampūrṇa) and bestows auspicious results related to kingdom, land/possessions, and enjoyment.
लक्ष्मीकटाक्षचिह्नानां चिरवासगृहप्रदा ।
तुङ्गमात्रगतस्यापि तथा वीर्याधिकस्य च ॥७९॥
79. lakṣmīkaṭākṣacihnānāṃ ciravāsagṛhapradā .

79. lakṣmīkaṭākṣacihnānām ciravāsagṛhapradā
tuṅgamātragatasyāpi tathā vīryādhikasya ca
79. It (such a planetary period) also bestows the signs of Lakṣmī's (Lakṣmī) favorable glance and grants permanent residences. These benefits apply even to a planet that has merely attained exaltation, and similarly, to one possessing abundant strength.
पूर्णाख्या बहुलैश्वर्यदायिन्यापि रुजप्रदा ।
अतिनीचगतस्यापि दुर्बलस्य ग्रहस्य तु ॥८०॥
80. pūrṇākhyā bahulaiśvaryadāyinyāpi rujapradā .
atinīcagatasyāpi durbalasya grahasya tu.
80. pūrṇākhyā bahulaiśvaryadāyinyā api rujapradā
atinīcagatasya api durbalasya grahasya tu
80. The daśā known as Pūrṇā, even though it grants abundant prosperity, also bestows diseases, particularly for a planet that is extremely debilitated or otherwise weak.
रिक्ता त्वनिष्टफलदा व्याध्यनर्थमृतिप्रदा ।
अत्युच्चेऽप्यतिनीचस्थे मध्यगस्यावरोहिणी ॥८१॥
81. riktā tvaniṣṭaphaladā vyādhyanarthamṛtipradā .
atyucce'pyatinīcasthe madhyagasyāvarohiṇī.
81. riktā tu aniṣṭaphaladā vyādhyanarthamṛtipradā
atyucce api atinīcasthye madhyagasya avarohiṇī
81. The daśā known as Riktā, however, produces undesirable results, bringing forth disease, misfortune, and death. It proves to be a declining influence even when a planet is in its highest exaltation or deepest debilitation, and also for a planet situated in a middle position.
मित्रोच्चभावप्राप्तस्य मध्याख्या ह्यर्थदा दशा ।
नीचांतादुच्चभागान्तं भषट्के मध्यगस्य च ॥८२॥
82. mitroccabhāvaprāptasya madhyākhyā hyarthadā daśā .
nīcāṃtāduccabhāgāntaṃ bhaṣaṭke madhyagasya ca.
82. mitroccabhāvapraptasya madhyākhyā hi arthadā daśā
nīcāntāt uccabhāgāntam bhaṣaṭke madhyagasya ca
82. Indeed, the daśā named Madhyā is a provider of wealth for a planet that has attained the status of being in a friendly sign or in exaltation. This daśā's influence applies to a planet situated from the end of its debilitation portion up to the end of its exaltation portion within a sign, as well as for a planet in the middle range of the six divisional charts (vargas).
दशा चारोहिणी नीचरिपुभांशगतस्य च ।
अधमाख्या भयक्लेशव्याधिदुःखविवर्धिनी ॥८३॥
83. daśā cārohiṇī nīcaripubhāṃśagatasya ca .

83. daśā ca avarohiṇī nīcaripubhāṃśagatasya ca
adhamākhyā bhayakleśavyādhiduḥkhavivardhinī
83. And the daśā is a declining one for a planet situated in the portion of its debilitation or enemy sign. The daśā known as Adhamā (inferior) particularly increases fear, affliction, disease, and sorrow.
नामानुरूपफलदाः पाककाले दशा इमाः ।
भाग्येशगुरुसम्बन्धो योगदृक्केन्द्रभादिभिः ॥८४॥
84. nāmānurūpaphaladāḥ pākakāle daśā imāḥ .
bhāgyeśagurusambandho yogadṛkkendrabhādibhiḥ.
84. nāmānurūpaphaladāḥ pākakāle daśā imāḥ
bhāgyeśagurusambandhaḥ yogadṛkkendrabhāgādibhiḥ
84. These daśās, during their period of operation, yield results corresponding to their names. The relationships (sambandha) involving the lord of the 9th house (bhāgya-īśa) and Jupiter (guru), along with yogas, aspects, angular houses (kendra), signs (bhāga), and other factors, should also be considered.
परेषामपि दायेषु भग्योपक्रममुन्नयेत् ।
जातको यस्तु फलदो भग्ययोगप्रदोऽथ यः ॥८५॥
85. pareṣāmapi dāyeṣu bhagyopakramamunnayet .
jātako yastu phalado bhagyayogaprado'tha yaḥ.
85. pareṣām api dāyeṣu bhāgyopakramam unnayet
jātakaḥ yaḥ tu phaladaḥ bhāgyayogapradaḥ atha yaḥ
85. One should ascertain the commencement of fortune (bhāgya) even from the shares or legacies of others. And whichever (planet or configuration) in the birth chart (jātaka) yields results and grants auspicious combinations for fortune (bhāgya)...
सफलो वक्रिमादूर्ध्वमन्यानपि च खेचरान् ।
दुर्बलानसमर्थांश्च फलदानेषु यागतः ॥८६॥
86. saphalo vakrimādūrdhvamanyānapi ca khecarān .
durbalānasamarthāṃśca phaladāneṣu yāgataḥ.
86. safalaḥ vakrimāt ūrdhvam anyān api ca khecarān
durbalān asamarthān ca phaladāneṣu yāgataḥ
86. That (planet or factor), which is effective (safala) after its direct motion following retrogradation, also (influences) other planets (khecarāḥ) that are weak and unable to grant results, due to its combination (yoga).
तारतम्यात्सुसम्बन्धा दशा ह्येताः फलप्रदाः ।
स्वकेन्द्रादिजुषां तेषां पूर्णार्द्धांघ्रिव्यवस्थया ॥८७॥
87. tāratamyātsusambandhā daśā hyetāḥ phalapradāḥ .
svakendrādijuṣāṃ teṣāṃ pūrṇārddhāṃghrivyavasthayā.
87. tāratamyāt susambandhāḥ daśāḥ hi etāḥ phalapradāḥ
svakendrādijuṣām teṣām pūrṇārddhāṅghrivyavasthayā
87. Indeed, these planetary periods (daśā), being well-connected and graduated in their effects, are productive of results. For those (planets) occupying their own Kendra (angular) houses and so on, results are given according to a system of full, half, or quarter strength.
शीर्षोदयभगाः स्वस्वदशादौ स्वफलप्रदाः ।
उभयोदयराशिस्थदशा मध्यफलप्रदा ॥८८॥
88. śīrṣodayabhagāḥ svasvadaśādau svaphalapradāḥ .
ubhayodayarāśisthadaśā madhyaphalapradā.
88. śīrṣodayabhagāḥ svasvadaśāādau svaphalapradāḥ
ubhayodayarāśisthadaśā madhyaphalapradā
88. Planets located in head-rising signs (śīrṣodaya rāśis) grant their full results at the beginning of their respective planetary periods (daśā). The planetary periods (daśā) of planets in signs that rise both ways (ubhayodaya rāśis) yield moderate results.
पृष्ठोदयर्क्षगाः खेटाः स्वदशान्ते फलप्रदाः ।
निसर्गतश्च तत्काले सुहृदां हरणे शुभम् ॥८९॥
89. pṛṣṭhodayarkṣagāḥ kheṭāḥ svadaśānte phalapradāḥ .
nisargataśca tatkāle suhṛdāṃ haraṇe śubham.
89. pṛṣṭhodayarkṣagāḥ kheṭāḥ svadaśāante phalapradāḥ
nisargataḥ ca tatkāle suhṛdām haraṇe śubham
89. Planets (kheṭa) located in tail-rising signs (pṛṣṭhodaya rāśis) grant results at the end of their respective planetary periods (daśā). And naturally, at that specific time, there is auspiciousness regarding the loss of friends.
सम्पादयेत्तदा कष्टं तद्विपर्ययगामिनाम् ।
दशेशाक्रांतभावर्क्षादारभ्य द्वादशर्क्षकम् ॥९०॥
90. sampādayettadā kaṣṭaṃ tadviparyayagāminām .
daśeśākrāṃtabhāvarkṣādārabhya dvādaśarkṣakam.
90. sampādayet tadā kaṣṭam tadviparyayagāminām |
daśeśākrāntabhāvarṣāt ārabhya dvādaśarṣakam
90. Then, trouble is caused to those who go against the principles, specifically starting from the sign occupied by the lord of the daśā (planetary period) and extending up to the twelfth house from it.
भक्त्वा द्वादशराशीनां दशाभुक्ति प्रकल्पयेत् ।
एकैकराशेर्या तत्र सुहृत्स्वक्षेत्रगामिनी ॥९१॥
91. bhaktvā dvādaśarāśīnāṃ daśābhukti prakalpayet .
ekaikarāśeryā tatra suhṛtsvakṣetragāminī.
91. bhaktvā dvādaśarāśīnām daśābhuktim prakalpayet
| ekaikarāśeḥ yā tatra suhṛtsvakṣetragāminī
91. One should arrange the daśā (planetary period) sub-periods (bhukti) by dividing them among the twelve signs. Among these, the sub-period of any given sign that is situated in a friendly sign or its own sign...
तस्यां राज्यादिसम्पत्तिपूर्वकं शुभमीरयेत् ।
दुःस्थानरिपुगेहस्थनीचक्रूरयुता च या ॥९२॥
92. tasyāṃ rājyādisampattipūrvakaṃ śubhamīrayet .
duḥsthānaripugehasthanīcakrūrayutā ca yā.
92. tasyām rājyādisampattipūrvakam śubham īrayet
| duḥsthānaripugehasthanīcakrūrayutā ca yā
92. In such a sub-period (bhukti), which is situated in a friendly sign or its own sign, one should predict auspicious results, including gains of kingdom and other forms of prosperity. Conversely, that (sub-period) which is situated in an evil house, an enemy's house, or is conjoined with debilitated or malefic planets...
तस्यामनर्थकलहं रोगमृत्युभयादिकम् ।
बिन्दुभूयस्त्वशून्यत्ववशात् स्वीयाष्टवर्गके ॥९३॥
93. tasyāmanarthakalahaṃ rogamṛtyubhayādikam .
bindubhūyastvaśūnyatvavaśāt svīyāṣṭavargake.
93. tasyām anarthakalaham rogamṛtyubhayādikam |
bindubhūyastvaśūnyatvavaśāt svīyāṣṭavargake
93. In such a sub-period (bhukti) – meaning the one situated in an evil house, an enemy's house, or conjoined with debilitated or malefic planets – one should predict misfortune, quarrels, sickness, death, fear, and so on. The extent of these effects should be known based on the abundance (bhūyastva) or absence (śūnyatva) of benefic points (bindu) in its own (planet's) Aṣṭakavarga (system).
वृद्धिं हानिं च तद्राशिभावस्य स्वगृहात्क्रमात् ।
भावयोजनया विद्यात्सुतस्त्र्यादिशुभाऽशुभम् ॥९४॥
94. vṛddhiṃ hāniṃ ca tadrāśibhāvasya svagṛhātkramāt .
bhāvayojanayā vidyātsutastryādiśubhā'śubham.
94. vṛddhim hānim ca tadrāśibhāvasya svagṛhāt kramāt
| bhāvayojanayā vidyāt sutastryādiśubhāśubham
94. Thus, one should understand the increase (vṛddhi) or decrease (hāni) of the significance of that particular house (bhāva) belonging to the sign (rāśi) in question, relative to its own natural house, sequentially determined by the abundance or absence of benefic points (bindu) in its own Aṣṭakavarga. By applying the principles of houses (bhāvayojanā), one should know the auspicious and inauspicious effects concerning children, spouses, and so on.
धात्वादिराशिभेदाच्च धात्वादिग्रहयोगतः ।
शुभपापनशाभेदाच्छुभपापयुतैरपि ॥९५॥
95. dhātvādirāśibhedācca dhātvādigrahayogataḥ .
śubhapāpanaśābhedācchubhapāpayutairapi.
95. dhātvādirāśibhedāt ca dhātvādigrahayogataḥ
śubhapāpadaśābhedāt śubhapāpayutaiḥ api
95. One should determine results based on the differences in signs (rāśi) related to minerals (dhātu) and so on, and from the conjunctions of planets (graha) similarly related to minerals; also, due to distinctions from auspicious and inauspicious planetary periods (daśā), and from associations with auspicious and inauspicious planets.
इष्टानिष्टस्थानभेदात् फलभेदात् समुन्नयेत् ।
एवं सर्वग्रहाणां च स्वां स्वामन्तर्दशामपि ॥९६॥
96. iṣṭāniṣṭasthānabhedāt phalabhedāt samunnayet .
evaṃ sarvagrahāṇāṃ ca svāṃ svāmantardaśāmapi.
96. iṣṭāniṣṭasthānabhedāt phalabhedāt samunnayet
evam sarvagrahāṇām ca svām svām antardaśām api
96. One should infer results based on the distinctions of auspicious and inauspicious positions (sthāna) and from differences in outcomes. Similarly, for all planets, one should also consider their own respective sub-periods (antardaśā).
स्वराशितो राशिभुक्तिं प्रकल्प्य फलमीरयेत् ।
अन्तरन्तर्दशां स्वीयां विभज्यैवं पुनः पुनः ॥९७॥
97. svarāśito rāśibhuktiṃ prakalpya phalamīrayet .
antarantardaśāṃ svīyāṃ vibhajyaivaṃ punaḥ punaḥ.
97. svarāśitaḥ rāśibhuktim prakalpya phalam īrayet
antarāntardaśām svīyām vibhajya evam punaḥ punaḥ
97. One should determine the planetary period (bhukti) of a sign (rāśi) from its own sign (svarāśi), and then declare the results. Similarly, one should subdivide one's own sub-sub-period (antar-antardaśā) in this manner repeatedly.
