Ch. 22. {Implications of Karm Bhava}

Ones obtainment of wealth (i.e. ones livelihood) is the product ofhis own inner nature. Such wealth is acquired through the Grahas

posited in Karm Bhava counted from Lagn, Candr and Srya, or therespective Navamshas.

Money comes through father, mother, brother, relative, elder(preceptor), wife and low class men according to the Grahconcerned be Srya etc., as indicated by the position in Karm Bhavafrom Lagn, or from Candr.

If Karm Bhava is without a Grah, then the strongest among Candr,or Srya should be considered. The lord of the Ri, in whichKarms lord is posited may also be considered. (That is the saidNavamshas will denote the kind of livelihood).

Should the lord of such Amsh be Srya, the person earns throughfruits, trees, medicines, metals, sculpture, betting, falsehood,cheating and royal sources.

Candrs Amsh in such case indicates: pearls, carriers run in water,husbandry, water, clothes etc., cows, buffaloes, sugar, females

company, chanting Mantras, hymns and the like and worship ofGods.

Such Amsh of Mangal denotes: teaching, Mantras, bravery,weapons (or surgery etc.), fire, medicines, selling in marker andthrough Kshatriyas (i.e. persons of royal scion).

In such Amsh of Budh, the livelihood is through: writings, drawings,literature, mathematics, bets, dancing, donations (i.e. the person willreceive donations in marriages, Shraddas etc.), education andloving speech.

Should such Amsh be of Guru, the means of livelihood will be from:education, worship of Gods (i.e. temple priesthood, Mantras, Japas,exposition of Mantras, knowledge of the three periods (i.e. Jyotish),Sakunas and royal favours.

Should ukr be the lord of such Amsh, the livelihood will be through:cows, buffaloes, horses, elephants etc., the company of women,

medicines, beautification, singing etc. and one will be happy throughthese.

Should the said Amsh be of ani, the source of living will be: fruits,leaves, carrying loads, labour, base men, servants, sales of grainand inferior grains (Khubhanya) (?) labour carrying loads, basedeeds, sesame, salt, grains, vegetables, grass, firewood, water etc.

Should the Grah, owning the Amsh, be very strong, one will earnmoney effortlessly and, if the Grah owning the Amsh is in deep fall,the results mentioned will manifest in little proportion.

The Jyotishi should advise (the means of livelihood) in the directionof the country indicated (by the study of the Kundali), or the countrysuitable to Karm Bhava from Lagn.

The sages say, that, if the said Bhavas receive Drishti from their

own lords, then, the native will earn in his own country and, if thesaid Bhavas receive a Drishti from, or are yuti with other Grahas, thelivelihood will be in other countries.

If the lord of the said Amsh is posited in a movable Ri, or Amsh,the native earns even, when in other countries/places and be happy;if the lord of the said lord of the Amsh is posited in a fixed Ri, or

Amsh, the earnings will be only in his native country and, if the lordof the Amsh is placed in a dual Ri, or Amsh, the earnings will be

anywhere.

Should the lord of the said Amsh be in retrograde motion money willbe acquired in many ways. And ones earning will be proportionateto ones own luck. The results have already been enumerated in full.

Even one strong benefic in Karm Bhava from Candr, not receiving aDrishti from, or not yuti with malefics, is enough to make a personenjoy fame for him and his family till the end of the Yuga. Thecounting applies similarly to Lagn also.
