BRIHAT JATAKA

Chapter 10  ---  Karmajeeva (Profession)

Stanza 1:

From Sun, etc., the acquisition of wealth must be predicted thru father, mother, enemy, friend, brother, woman and servant respectively, when he occupies the 10th house from birth or Moon, or thru lord of the navamsa occupied by the lord of the 10th, from birth, Moon or Sun

Stanza 2:

If the lord of the navamsa is Sun, the person gets wealth thru scents, gold, wool, medicines, etc. If the amsa lord is Moon, wealth flows thru agriculture, watery products and dependence upon women, etc. If the lord of the navamsa is Mars, he gets money thru minerals, fire, weapons, adventures and physical strength. If the lord of the navamsa is Mercury, money is obtained thru writing, math, poetry and fine arts

Stanza 3:

If the lord of the navamsa is Jupiter, he gets money from Brahmins, priests, Gods, in mines or manufactures, and from charities. If that lord is Venus, he makes money by gems, silver, cows, buffaloes, etc. If he’s Saturn, he gets money from labor, by execution, carrying and by low artisanship. The source of income may be such as that which is controlled by the lord of the navamsa occupied by the lord of 10th in transit

Stanza 4:

Planets give wealth similar to the houses they occupy. If Sun is exalted and powerful, the man gets wealth by self‑acquisition. If powerful benefics are in lagna, 2nd or 11th, he gets money in many ways

BRIHAT JATAKA

Chapter Chapter 11 --- Rajayoga

Stanza 1:

Yavanas say that three or more cruel planets in exaltation will produce a cruel-minded king. Jeevasarma and his school say that exalted cruel planets won’t raise a man to kingly power

Stanza 2:

If Mars, Saturn, Sun and Jupiter or any three of them are exalted and one of these three occupies the lagna, 16 rajayogas arise. If Moon is in his own house, and any two of the above planets are in exaltation, with one of them in birth, or if any of the above-named planets is in exaltation occupying the lagna, they produce 16 rajayogas

Stanza 3:

If lagna or Moon occupies vargottama and has the aspects of four or more planets, except Moon, 22 rajayogas are generated

Stanza 4:

If Saturn is in Aquarius, Sun in Aries, Moon in Taurus and lagna rises in one of these, and Mercury, Jupiter and Mars are in Gemini, Leo and Scorpio, there’ll be combinations for royalty. If Sun and Moon are in exaltation and lagna rises in one of these signs and if Sun and Mercury are in the 6th, and if Venus, Mars and Jupiter are in Libra, Aries and Cancer, they generate two rajayogas

Stanza 5:

If Mars is in Capricorn, Sun and Moon in Sagittarius, and lagna rising in Capricorn with Saturn in it, the person becomes a king. If, in the above combination, Moon joins Mars in birth or if Saturn and Moon are in 7th, if Jupiter is in Sagittarius, and Aries becomes lagna with Sun there, the person becomes a king

Stanza 6:

If Taurus rises at birth with Moon in it, and Sun, Jupiter and Saturn are in the 4th, 7th and 10th respectively, the person certainly becomes a king. If Capricorn is birth with Saturn in it, and 3, 6, 9 or 12 are occupied by Moon, etc., the person becomes a famous, good-natured and prominent king

Stanza 7:

If Jupiter with Moon is in Sagittarius, Mars in Capricorn and Pisces or Virgo is the lagna with Mercury and Venus there, two rajayogas arise. If Mars and Saturn occupy the 5th, Jupiter, Moon and Venus join the 4th, if Virgo rises as lagna with Mercury in it, the person becomes a king with good character

Stanza 8:

If Pisces becomes lagna with Moon in it, Saturn, Mars and Sun are in Aquarius, Capricorn and Leo respectively, the person born will rule the earth.

If Aries becomes lagna with Mars in it, with Jupiter in Cancer or if Cancer rises with Jupiter in it, with Mars in Aries, a king will be born

Stanza 9:

If Cancer is lagna with Jupiter in it and if Moon, Venus and Mercury are in Taurus and Sun in Aries, a mighty king will be born

Stanza 10:

If Capricorn is lagna with Saturn in it and if Aries, Cancer and Leo are combined with their lords and if Gemini and Libra are occupied by Mercury and Venus, the person becomes a renowned ruler

Stanza 11:

If an exalted Mercury is in lagna, Venus in Gemini, Moon and Jupiter in Pisces with Saturn and Mars in Capricorn, the person becomes a king

Stanza 12:

In the combinations for royalty sketched before, persons born in poverty will become kings; much more so persons born in royal families. The combinations to be given hereafter will make men kings who are born in royal families and others born in ordinary families will become equal to kings

Stanza 13:

If there are three or more powerful exalted or moolatrikona planets in a horoscope, a person born in a royal family will become a king. If this number is five or more, then persons born in ordinary families will become rulers. If these planets are powerless, the persons won’t be kings but wealthy men

Stanza 14:

If Aries is the lagna with Sun half-rising and Moon in it, Mars in Capricorn and Jupiter in Sagittarius, the person born in a royal family becomes a king

Stanza 15:

When Venus occupies the 4th from lagna, Moon occupies the 9th and the rest are in the 1st, 3rd and 11th houses, the person becomes a king

Stanza 16:

If a powerful Mercury is in lagna, a powerful benefic in the 9th and the rest of the planets in the 2nd, 3rd, 6th, 9th, 10th or 11th, the person born in a royal family will become a good and charitable king

Stanza 17:

If Taurus is lagna and Moon, Jupiter and Saturn and other planets occupy the 1st, 2nd, 6th and 11th respectively, or if Moon and Sun in the 10th and Saturn in lagna and other planets in the 11th, the person becomes king

Stanza 18:

If Moon, Saturn and Jupiter are in the 10th, 11th and 1st respectively, Mercury and Mars in the 2nd and Venus and Sun in the 4th, the person becomes a king. If Mars and Sun are in lagna, Moon, Jupiter, Venus, Sun and Mercury are in the 4th, 7th, 9th, 10th and 11th respectively, the person becomes a king

Stanza 19:

The person gets royal power in the antaradasa of the most powerful planet or of the planet who combines in the 10th or the 1st. He loses that power in the antaradasa of the planet who’s unfriendly or debilitation house because such a period is called the chara dasa. He then must seek protection from a powerful king

Stanza 20:

If Jupiter, Venus or Mercury is in lagna, Saturn in 7th and Sun in the 10th, the person will enjoy his life well. If beneficial signs are powerful and fall in quadrants and malefics occupy cruel signs, the person will be a master of hunters, thieves and wealth.
