Effects of Tanu Bhava

यह अध्याय बृहत् पराशर होरा शास्त्र के प्रामाणिक अंग्रेज़ी अनुवाद पर आधारित है; मूल संस्कृत सूत्रों का हिन्दी अनुवाद शीघ्र जोड़ा जाएगा।

1-2. Physical comforts. Should Lagn Lord be yuti with a malefic, or be in Randhr, 6th, or 12th, physical felicity will diminish. If he is in an angle, or trine there will be at all times comforts of the body. If Lagn Lord is in debilitation, combustion, or enemy‟s Rāśi, there will be diseases. With a benefic in an angle, or trine all diseases will disappear. Lagn‟s angles (i.e. Bandhu, Yuvati, or the 10th), or its trine (Putr, Dharm), containing a benefic, is a powerful remedy for all, related to health.

3. There will not be bodily health, if Lagn, or Candr be drishtied by, or yuti with a malefic, being devoid of a benefics Drishti.

4. Bodily Beauty. A benefic in Lagn will give a pleasing appearance, while a malefic will make one bereft of good appearance. Felicity of the body will be enjoyed, if Lagn is drishtied by, or yuti with a benefic.

5-7. Other Benefits. If Lagn Lord, Budh, Guru, or Śukr be in an angle, or in a trine, the native will be long lived, wealthy, intelligent and liked by the king. Fame, wealth, abundant pleasures and comforts of the body will be acquired, if Lagn Lord is in a Movable Rāśi and be drishtied by a benefic Grah. One will be endowed with royal marks (of fortune), if Budh, Guru, or Śukr be in Lagn along with the Candr, or be in angle from Lagn. If Budh, Guru, or Śukr be in 4th, 7th, or 10th from Lagn, or be in the company of Candr in Lagn, the native will enjoy royal fortunes.

8. Coiled Birth. If there be a birth in one of Mesh, Vrishabh and Simh Lagnas, containing either Śani, or Mangal, the birth of the child is with a coil around a limb. The corresponding limb will be in accordance with the Rāśi, or Navāńś, rising.

9. Birth of Twins. The native, who has Sūrya in a quadruped Rāśi, while others are in Dual Rāśis with strength, is born, as one of the twins.

10. To Be Nurtured by Three Mothers. If Sūrya and Candr join in one and the same Bhava and fall in one Navāńś, the native will be nurtured by three different mothers for the first three months from its birth and will later on be brought up by its father and brother. („Bhratri‟ apart from meaning a brother calls for interpretation, as a near relative in general)

11. Important. The learned in Jyotish should base the effects on Candr also, as are applicable to Lagn. Now explained are clues to know of ulcers, identity marks etc. on one‟s person.

12-14. Decanates and Bodily Limbs. Head, eyes, ears, nose, temple, chin and face is the order of limbs, denoted (by the various Bhavas), when the first decanate of a Rāśi ascends. In the case of the second decanate ascending the order is neck, shoulder, arm, side, heart, stomach and navel. The order for the third decanate ascending is pelvis, anus/penis, testicles, thigh, knee, calf and foot. The portion already risen indicates left side of the body (while the one yet to rise, i.e. the invisible half, denotes the right side of the body).

15. Limbs Affected. The limb, related to a malefic by occupation, will have ulcers, or scars, while the one, related to a benefic, will have a mark (like moles etc). So say the Jyotishis. (Also see Sloka 6, Ch. 4 of Saravali, which states, that a malefic, or a benefic, if be in own Rāśi, or Navāńś, the effects will be right from birth. In other cases it will be in the course of one‟s life, that these effects will come to pass)
