KANDA - 1
SECTION – VI: THE DASAS AND THEIR EFFECTS
Sloka 1: The Avastthas or conditions of a planet are of nine kinds, viz., (1) Deepta-blazing when he is in his exaltation, (2) stimita-gratified or satisfied when he is in his own house (3) Muditahappy when he is in a dear friend’s house (5) Heena deficient when he is quartered in a neutral’s house (6) Duhkha-dejected when he is in an enemy’s house (7) Vikla-failing when he is associated with a malefic (8) Khala-base when he is vanquished in war and (9) Kopa-angry when he is eclipsed by the Sun’s rays.
Sloka 2: Since the fruits of past Karma resulting from either good or bad actions are known through the Dasas and Bhuktis of planets, it is essential that the Dasas of the planets should be sub-divided and the several effects of such sub-divisions should be known in order that one may obtain the required happiness by the performance of Shantis to overcome the evil.
Sloka 3: The Sun, the Moon, Mars, Rahu, Jupiter, Saturn, Mercury, Ketu and Venus are in their order the lords of the Dasa period of years represented by the numbers 6, 10, 7, 18, 16, 19, 17, 7 and 20 respectively. The particular Dasa that starts in a nativity is thus obtained : count from Krittika till the natal star inclusive and divide the result by 9. The remainder will indicate the lord of the Dasa counted from the Sun onwards.
Sloka 4: Find the number of Ghatikas, etc., still to pass of the asterism at birth, divide the same by the total Ghatikas taken by the Moon to pass through that art. Multiply this fraction by the appropriate Dasa-years mentioned in the previous Sloka. The quotient will be the number of years still to pass in that Dasa. The remainder when multiplied by 12 and 30 will give the months and days required.
Sloka 5 – 5 ½: Multiply the Dasa years of a planet by the Dasa years of the other planet whose Bhukti or sub-period is required. The product will be in 2 or 3 digits. The number indicated by the first or first two digits as the case may be will be the number of months contained in the Bhukti, and the last digit multiplied by 3 will be the days to be added, etc. thus should the period of all the Bhktis in the several Dasas be calculated. Convert the Bhukti period into days and multiply the same by the number indicating the Dasa years of a planet. Take a moiety of the product. This will signify the (Vidasa) or (Antara) of the planet in terms of Ghatikas, etc., and this when divided by 60 will indicate the period in days. Similarly should the (Sukshmadasa), etc., be calculated, but there is this peculiarity, i.e., the numbers each below the other in their order will signify the sub-period in days, Ghatikas and Vighatikas.
Thus, Mercury’s Bhukti period in Saturn’s Dasa is obtained by multiplying 17x19. The product is 323 which means 32 months and 9 days.
Similarly to find out the sub-period of the Moon-Chandrantara- in the above Mercury’s Bhukti, we proceed thus:
Convert the 32 months and 9 days (the period of the Bhukti) into days, thus: 32x30+9 or 969. As the Moon’s Dasa period is 10 years, this has to be multiplied by 10 and a half of the product is to be taken = 969 x 10 x ½ or 4845. This will denote the number in Ghatikas of Moon’s Antara. This when converted into days will be = 4845 – 60 or 80 days 45 Ghatikas.
Slokas 5 ½ - 6 ½ : The Sun’s Dasa will, if the Sun be auspicious to the native, give during his period sons, Intelligence, Wisdom, good status, knowledge, wealth, fame, valour, happiness and divine favour. If the sun be inauspicious, the native will suffer intense hardships; all his efforts will become useless; there will be much waste of money. He will suffer from disease and there will be trouble from the enemy, royal displeasure, ill-health to father and similar other happenings.
Slokas 6 ½ - 7 ½: When the moon is auspicious, the mother’s prosperity and the building of tanks and the like may be expected. The native will get lands, gardens, houses, the blessings of good Brahmins, wealth, prosperity and joyrides. If the moon be unfavourable, the native will suffer from want of food, will be miserly, will become devois of pleasure and wealth, suffer diseases, will be lacking in wisdom, will be censured, lose his mother, will often get angry and suffer from fevers like typhoid.
Slokas 7 ½ - 8 ½: The Dasa of Mars when Mars is auspicious will bring to the native lands, desired objects, knowledge clearness of mind, prowess, wealth, destruction of enemies, advent of brothers. If Mars be inauspicious, there will be distress to brothers, misunderstandings, troubles through lands, danger from fire, wounds, decay of eyesight and the like, trouble from Government, misunderstandings with good people, shortcuts and diseases.
Sloka 8 ½ - 9 ½: If mercury be auspicious, he will give during the Dasa clothing, endless wealth, corn, status, prosperity, happiness, house, relations, success and fulfillment of cherished desires and objects. If he be inauspicious, the native will go to be foreign country ; there will be anger, loss of relations, intellectual diminution, trouble from the merchant class, misunderstandings, loss of lands and money and other calamities.
Sloka 9 ½ - 10 ½: Jupiter, if auspicious, makes the native the headman of a big village, blesses him with children, wealth and prosperity. The native will be a mine of all virtues, will have many dependants, horses, joyrides and other comforts. If Jupiter be unfavourable, there will be royal displeasure, mental worry, diseases, loss of courage, lack of corn, lack of money, trouble from Brahmisn, displeasure of the father, trouble for proper meals and consumption.
Sloka 10½-11½: Venus when favourable will bring all happiness, prosperity, high status, joyrides, the eight kinds of wealth, inclination to be virtuous- in a very high degree, gold, garden, horses, music and processions. When Venus is there will be trouble to the wife. T e person will become wick .d; wealth will be wast d:; there will be a big theft in his house. He will commit serious faults and will suffer diseases arising from his intrigues in a large- scale with the woman folk.
Sloka 11 ½ -12 ½ If Saturn be favourable, his Dasa will prove prosperous, will best the native intelligence and will make him perform He will own bonds, will become the headman of a village or of a small town. He will turn out to be °a big will be very enthusiastic. vVhenS3.turn is in am picious, there win be poisoning, loss of wealth, troubles to body, etc. and royal displeasure; his work will be frustrated; he will become worried and suffer diseases causing intense trouble.
Sloka 12½-13½: During the Dasa of Rahu,' when he is favourable, he will confer on the native all that is best and desirable, a high position of authority, all kinds of virtues and wealth. The person will resort to holy shrines; will acquire sacred knowledge and power. If Rahu be untoward, the person will be liable to d anger from reptiles, poison, disease and trouble all over the body, danger from missiles and fire, worst enmity, a fall from a tree and torments from enemies.
Sloka 13½ - 14½: During the advent of Ketu’s Dasa when Ketu is favourable, there will be success in all undertakings, acquisition of wealth through bloody deeds, good fortune through a foreign king, attempts at poetical com¬position and destruction of enemies. When Ketu is bad, he will cause to the native intense miseries; all his efforts will become fruitless; he will be doing only unprofitable things; there will also be loss of position; he will suffer from rheumatism, tuberculosis, shaking all over the body,' misunderstanding with the Brahmin folk. He will further commit the worst follies.
Sloka 14½ - 15½: (a) If Rahu or Ketu occupy a (Trikona-5th or 9th) and be conjoined with or aspected by the lord of the 2nd or the 7th house, they cause death during their Dasas. (b) If they occupy the 7th or the 2nd house in conjunction with or aspected by the lord of the 5th or 9th, they confer wealth and long life on the native. If under the same condition, viz., Rahu or Ketu occupying the 2nd or the 7th (c) any malefic planet be in conjunction with the planet owning the 2nd or: the 7th house, his Dasa will bring on death to the native.
For (a)-See Chart 15 (p. 37 supra), Rahu is posited in the 5th house along with Mercury, the lord of the 7th, and the death of the native was in Rahu Dasa.
Sloka 15½ - 16½: (a) If Rahu or Ketu occupy a dual Rasi along with the lord of the 1st, 4th, 5th, 7th, 9th or the 10th house, or happen to be the lord of any of those Rasi the native will, during the planet's Dasa period, get wealth power etc. (b) if any one of the above said be conjoined with or aspected by the lord of the 6th, 8th or 14th house, there will not be such benefit to the native, but the Dasa will bring about the demise of the native's mother or other near relation.
Sloka 16½ 17½ (a): The same two planets if posit. ed in a fixed or a moveable Rasi and conjoined with planets owning a Kendra or a Trikona place will be productive of good fortune during the Dasa of one of the two occupying an auspicious house. (b) If they be in a malefic house, they will not cause any good effect; some are however (if opinion that they will bring happiness. If these two should occupy malefic houses in company with benefics, they become instrumental in causing the demise of the native.
Sloka 17 ½ - 18 ½: If Rahu or Ketu be posited in the 6th, 8th or 12th house and -be conjoined with or aspected by any of the lords of these houses, they begin to afflict the native during their Dasas. If they conjoin with (Maraka) planets or with the lords of the Dusstthanas, they bring about the death of the native. If they be associated with the lords of Kendra and Kona houses and be posited in the Dusstthanas, they cause some happiness and then bring on death through diseases, wounds, misery, sword cuts, drowning or suicide.
Sloka 18½ - 19½ (a) If the said two planets be conjoined witht strong Yogakaraka planets and be posited in the 1st, 3rd, 4th, 7th, 9th or 10th houses, they confer on the native prosperity, happiness, children, wealth, power and superior vehicles. (b) The same, if conjoined with the lords of the 7th and the 2nd houses or aspected by them, will cause the entire loss of wealth to the native and also bring about his death.
.
Sloka 19½ - 20½. The exaltation houses of Rahu and Ketu are Vrishabha and Vrischika respectively. Their (Swakshetra) houses are Kumbha and Vrischika. Mithuna and Kany are their Moolatrikona Rasis. Simha and Kataka are their inimical houses, while Tula and Makara are their friendly signs. Mesha and the two Rasis owned by Jupiter are their neutral ones. The said two planets are declared to possess maximum strength when they are exalted. At other places, their strength will be proportionate conformably to the nature of their relation to the houses they occupy.
Sloka 20½ - 21½. If these two planets, possessed of strength be posited in any Bhava or have anyone of the Bhava (Sambandb a) with the lord of any Bhava, they cause during their Dasa good and bad effects overlooking the effects, if any, that may be caused by other planets. Whichever house they occupy, they will possess the strength of the lord of that house, and the good and bad effects resulting from the Bhava they occupy should be predicted according to the strength of the lord of that Bhava.
Sloka 21 ½ - 22 ½: When the Dasa of any planet is ruling at the time, treat the house occupied by that planet as the Lagna, and find what house reckoned from this Lagna is occupied by the (Bhuktinatha). Find also the strength of these two planets derived through their being conjoined with or aspected by other planets. If these two planets be not mutually in quincunx aspect, the resulting effect will be happy. Otherwise, malefic effect will result according to the .strength of the planet.
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.

Exact time is required and a horoscope for that time should- be cast accurately. Find the asterism in which the Moon is at the time under consideration. The order of this asterism reckoned from the natal star will reveal the lord of the Dasa counted from the Sun which the native is undergoing at the commencement of this year. The order of the Dasa lords will be as fol1ows; The Sun, the Moon, Mar, Mercury, Jupiter, Venus, Saturn, Rahu and the Lagna. The portion traversed by the Moon at the time in the particular asterism will reveal the portion of the corresponding Dasa elapsed.
The above table is prepared to suit both systems of reckoning, viz., Ghatikas, etc., Vighatikas, etc., and hours, minutes, seconds. The numbers 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 0 under the column 'Day' refer to the 7 days of the week from Sunday onwards.

The birth in question being at Sunrise, the Sun is posited in the rising Navamsa. Three notable features are present in this nativity: (1) Mars, the Yogakaraka, occupies the centre of the 2nd (Dhana) Bhava; (2) the Sun, the lord of the 2nd, is posited exactly in the Ascendant; (3) The Yogakaraka is in the 10th Kendra exactly with respect to the lord of the Lagna, and thus the aspect of Mars over the Moon is full. From this, it will be clear that the power wielded by the native will be immense. The native will have to earn more by wielding Power in some administrative capacity in virtue of the position of the Yogakaraka. So much of stress had to be laid on 'the above statement, because, the rising' planet is the Sun, the Rajvakaraka. The inheritance of the native will also be good as Jupiter, the lord of the 9th (house of Father) occupies the 2nd in conjunction with Mats, the Yogakaraka, while the Sun, the (Pitrukaraka) and the lord of the 2nd, is in the Lagna. The above statement will have to lose some of its force as the conjunction of the said planets has been marred by the inclusion of Mercury, the lord of the 12th.
Regarding the position of the Moon, the presence of Mars, lord of the Rasi occupied by the Moon, in Kendra position with respect to her elevates the native to a considerably high position the effect due to depression being nullified (VII-26-28).
The aspect of Saturn, the lord of the 8th, over the (Dhana) Bhava and the 7th is not so good. The conjunction of the lords of the 6th and the 12th in the 2nd Bhava is a very strong (Dhana) yoga. The presence of the two nodes of the Moon in Kendras will surely bring the native to prominence.
Jupiter and Mars, lords of the 9th and 10th as well as those of 9th and 10th as well as those of 9th are conjoined in the 2nd house resulting in a very strong Raja yoga (IV-4)
The native is an officer in the Burman P. W. D.
Let us prepare his chart for the year 1938 - 39.
The native has completed 41 years and entered on his 42nd year.
Day – GH. Vigh - Tat.
His birth was on Sunday at 30 ½ Vigh or 1 – 0 – 30 – 30
For 40 years 1 – 21 - 0 – 0

Therefore for 41 years 3 – 37 – 2 – 0
Which means, the time in question Was 37 gh. 2 vigh on a Tues. day in the month of Kataka in the year Bahudhanya, and corres¬ponds to 37 gh. 2 vigh. on 9th August 1938.

The Moon is traversing (Uttarashadha). The portion of the star still to be traversed in ghatikas is 22. The total duration of the asterism is 67. 4. This star is the 4th when counted from Jyeshta, the natal star of the native. Hence the lord of the Dasa at the commencement of the year is the 4th from the Sun that is Mercury. The balance of the Dasa is 22.1 ? 67.1 x 40 or 13 days. The several periods of the year ruled by the planets are shown below:

The nature of the year under consideration for the native is to be discussed from the annual chart given in the previous page.
It is to be understood that the nature of the Lagna will always give an indication as, to the nature of that particular year. At the out¬set, the year augurs bad as the lord of the Lagna has exchanged place with the lord of the 12th. To add to this, we have the complete aspect of Venus, the lord of the 8th, over the Ascendant. Venus, being the lord of the 3rd, is aspected by Saturn, the lord of the 12th, and is without any benefic aspect. The 3rd house also is aspected by Saturn. Saturn, the lord of the 11th, receives the aspect of Venus, the lord of the 8th. The sun, the lord of the 6th aspects the 11th the 3rd house and Mercury denote the afterborns (V-4. 36), while the 11th and Jupiter, the eldest brother (V-19, 39). The year under reference will therefore be a bit unfavourable to the native's brothers (younger as well as elder).
The Sun, the lord of the 6th, is posited in the 5th, thus indi¬cating that the native's children will not be keeping good health. The year IS not beneficial to the native's partner also, as the lord of the 7th has gone to the 6th. Venus, the lord of a Dusstthana, is posited in the 7th, and the 7th is badly aspected by Saturn (the lord if the 12th). Much of the strain of this unfavourableness 'will have to' be borne by the native himself, as all these above remarks are made with reference to the native's Chart. To be short, the presence of Saturn may cause lot of expenditure mostly unexpected.
Coming to the particular periods, the year begins 'with Mercury's Dasa. He is gone to the 6th which is the 12th from the (Kalatra Lagna). The native will have to pass a difficult time, the difficulty being mostly due to his partner. The severity' is considerably reduced as Mercury is aspected by Jupiter;
The next period is that of Jupiter. The native ought to have, got the best he could get during this year as Jupiter governs t e native's position and body. But the position of Jupiter in the 12th will have to cause some disappointment in this direction. To support it, this Jupiter is badly aspected by Mars who is conjoined with the lord of the 6th. Particularly during Jupiter’s period, the native will have to experience a bit of anxiety on account of his eldest brother, as Jupiter, the planet representing the eldest brother has gone to the 12th and is aspected by Mercury in the 6th.
Nothing good can be expected during the period of Venus as this planet rules, over the 8th house and is further aspected by a powerful Saturn. Venus in the capacity of the ownership of the 3rd may cause ill health and some distress to the brothers of the native during his Dasa.
Saturn's period win be an anxious one so far as the health of the native's elder brother is concerned, as Saturn is the lord of the' nth and is aspected by the lord of the 8th.
But Rahu's Dasa will be certainly better than that of Saturri as Rahu is aspected by Jupiter.
Next comes the Lagna Dasa. The nature of this depends much on Jupiter about whom comment has already been made.
The Sun's Dasa may cause ill health to the native's children as he is the lord of the 6th and is posited in the 5th.
The only period during which the native will get some peace of mind is that ruled by the planet representing the mind, that is, the Moon. She is best placed, being aspected by Mars, her friend the lord of the 2nd and the 9th. She has escaped the Sun's aspect (the Moon is in the 6th degree of Makara while the Sun is in the 24th degree of Kataka). The Sun happens to own the 6th.
The Dasa of Mars will also be good as he is aspected by the Moon, the lord of the 5th though not so good as that of the Moon as he is eclipsed by the Sun's (lord of the 6th) rays.
In conclusion, we shall have to infer that the whole year will not be a happy and a peaceful one. The various incidents which the native will have to come across during this year will make the native put on an appearance of entire resignation towards the doings of these various planets as Jupiter and Saturn-the two philosophical planets--have exchanged positions.
Sloka 36½ - 37½. In this connection, due consideration should also be given to the effects that may be caused by planets transitting during their course the several houses reckoned from the (Janma Rasi) radix Moon-,and the conjoined effects alone should be predicted. I am now going to describe in a fine and easy manner the accurate effects of the several Dasas during a year.
Sloka 37½ - 38½ . When the Sun is strong, there will be accumulation of wealth, acquisition of ornaments and wearing of new apparel. If the Sun be weak, there will be increase of sin and enemies, loss of wealth and springing up of new troubles. When the Moon is strong, there will be royal favour, incessant flowing in of money and a position. When the Moon is weak, more enemies will turn up. The person will suffer from sickness; there will also be change of place, misery and misunderstandings with one’s people.
Sloka 38½ - 39½. If Mars be endowed with strength, there will be royal favour, success in life and domestic happiness. When Mars is weak there will be displeasure from the sovereign, quarrel with one’s own sons, enmity with one’s wife and decay of wealth. When Mercury is very strong, the person concerned will be energetic. He will enjoy more happiness and there will be more gain. If Mercury be weak, there will result misunderstandings with one’s brothers, etc. He will take to bad ways and will do mischief to the Brahmin folk.
Sloka 39½ - 40½ When Jupiter is fully 'powerful, the person will command good vehicles, and houses. He will be munificent, possess good intellect and much wealth. If Jupiter be weak there will be change of place and also loss of wealth. He will further go into bad ways' and evil association. When Venus is possessed of much strength, there will be influx of wealth and fame. The native will have good white robes and female company. When Venus is weak there will be loss of wealth, danger from enemies, diseases through female arid ill fame.
Sloka 40½ - 41½. When Saturn is strong, the person will acquire a good house, and be happy; he will become the headman or leader of a wild tribe. If Saturn be weak there will be destruction of wealth, emaciation of the body, disease and ill-fame. When Rahu is strong, he will make the native do good and virtuous acts get good income and rise in his official position. When he is unfavourable, the effect likewise will be bad there may happen the demise of the father. The person will further befriend base people and associate with his enemies.
Sloka 41½ - 42 ½ . When the Lagna Dasa rules, the effect will be good, medium or bad, according to the nature of the decanate occupied and the (Sambandha), Yogas, etc. formed by that lord. Thus have been declared in an elegant and concise manner the effects of the several Dasas in a year. Intelligent men should predict nature of the effects with special reference to the strength of otherwise of the planets concerned derived through their association with benefics, etc.
