134) The contribution of the lagna multiplied by 3 and divided by 10 gives its Äyus in years. The remainder should be multiplied by 12 and divided by 10. The result will give months and days.
135) When the lagna is very strong, its nett contribution would be the above result increased by so many years as there are Räçis in the Lagna. The degrees etc., multiplied by two and divided by 12 would give months and the remainder being multiplied by 30 and divided as before, days etc. This is not done in the case of Piëòa and Nisarga systems.
136-137) The Mahadaçä (major period) of that planet which is the strongest among the three viz. Ascendant, the Sun and Moon, will operate in the beginning. Then will come the Daçäs of those that are in the Kendras. In case there are many planets posited in Kendras, then the strongest of them will have precedence over others. If two planets are equally strong, then that which contributes a greater number of years of Äyus, will operate first. In the case of planets that are associated with the Sun, the faster moving one will come first (i.e., the one which becomes visible first).
138-140)The order of the Daçäs is the following: A planet whose Þadvargabala is a half (of its maximum), one whose Bala is 1/3, a planet which is situated in a trine, one in the 7th therefrom, one in the 7th itself, one in the 4th house and one in the 4th or 8th from the previous Äyurdäya, here too the rules regarding the precedence of Daçä with regard to the planets posited in quadrants, their order in case of a tie, are the same as noted already. The Gunakas (multipliers) for the various types of planets are the following: for the Daçänätha (i.e., the planet whose Daçä comes first) it is 84 (or does it mean 4 or 8 according to its strength?); for one in conjunction with another, it is 4; for one posited in a line, it is 28; for one posited in the 7th house, it is 12; and for one posited in the 4th or 8th house, it is 21.
141) O Närada, the Daçä period being multiplied by these Gunakas and divided by the Gunaikya (the combined Guna or product of the Gunakas) yields the nett result in years. When the remainder is multiplied by 12 and divided by the above divisor, months, etc., are got.
142) The sub-divisions or minor periods of a Daçä are Vidaçäs and Upadaçäs. When the lord of the sub period happens to be Adhimitra (fast friend) or is posited in the former house, exaltation or in the lagna, the period should be increased in order by 1, 4, 1 or 7 years.
143) A benefic occupying a house increases its prospects, provided he is aspected by another occupying a contributory house. On the other hand, if he is posited in any other house, he will destroy it.
144) Whatever substances are allotted to a planet, all that should be mentioned as occurring in the Daçä of that planet by it occupation, aspect and conjunction, to the person concerned in his profession, life etc.
145-146) If the lord of the sub period – Vidaçä or Upadaçä – is aspected by an inimical planet, he will cause only disasters. On the other hand, one who is aspected by a benefic, or a friend and is posited in benefic or friendly Vargas and is strong at the time (of the sub-period) is declared to be a destroyer of all troubles. This applies also to one whose Añöakavarga results are excellent. 147-148)A planet that is posited in its exaltation house identical with an auspicious house counted from the lagna, Moon or Sun, will yield the best results, while one posited in its own house, Mülatrikona or friendly house, moderately good effects. The effect, good or bad, will be intense or otherwise, according as the planet is strong or otherwise.
149) In a Movable Lagna, the effects of the three decanates, first, second and third are good, middling and bad respectively; in a Fixed one, they are in order, bad, good and middling; In a Dual one, middling, bad and good.
150) The Lagna being aspected or joined by its own lord, Mercury or Jupiter confers excellent results on the native, while being hemmed in between malefics or being aspected by or joined by malefics, it leads to its ruin.
151-152) In the Sun’s Añöakavarga chart he produces beneficent influences on houses 1, 2, 4, 7, 8, 9, 10 and 11 counted from his own position. He is good in these houses counted from the positions of Mars and Saturn also. He is good in 6, 7 and 12 from Venus; He is good in 5, 6, 9 and 11 places from Jupiter; He is good in 3, 6, 10 and 11 from the Moon; He is good in 3, 5, 6, 9, 10, 11 and 12 places counted from Mercury and lastly, he is good in 3, 4, 6, 10, 11 and 12 places from the Ascendant.
