3.

INFANT STATE ETC:

Infant, youthful, adolescent, old,

and dead are the states of planets
placed in the ascending order at
the rate of six degrees in odd
signs. This arrangement is reverse
in the case of even signs.

4. RESULTS:

One fourth, half, full, negligible,

and nill

are the grades of results due to a

planet in infant, youthful,
adolescent, old, and dead states.

5. AWAKENING, DREAMING,
AND SLEEPING STATES:

If a planet is in its own sign or

in exaltation, it is said to be in a
state of awakening (or alertness).

In the sign of a friend or of a

neutral it is in dreaming state,

while in enemy's sign or in

debilitation it is in a state of
sleeping.

6. According to a planet being in

Awakening, Dreaming, Sleeping
states, the results due to it will be
full, medium, or nil.
7. OTHER KINDS OF STATES:

There are nine kinds of other

states, viz. Deepta, Swastha,
Pramudita, Santa, Deena, Vikala,
Khala, and Kopa.

8-10. If a planet is

 in its exaltation sign, it is

in Deeptavastha
 in own sign Swastha
 in thick friend's
sign Pramudita
 in friendly sign Santa
 in in neutral's sign Deena
 in the company of a
malefic Vikala
 in an enemy's sign Khala
 and in being eclipsed by
the Sun - Kopa

Depending on such a state of the

planet, the house occupied by it
will obtain corresponding effects.

SALAJJITA 11-18. YET OTHER AVASTHAS:

 ashamed, abashed 1. Lajjita

 with bashfulness and love 2. Garvita
and compassion 3. Kshudita
4. Trushita
GARVITA 5. Mudita
6. Kshobhita
 haughty, conceited, proud
are the other kinds of (six) states due to the
KSHUDITA planets.

Placed in the 5th house if a planet is associated
with a node or with the Sun, Saturn, or Mars, it
is in Lajjitavastha. (BPL: Salajjita Avastabha)
If a planet is in exaltation or in Moolatrikona,
it is Garvitavastha.
The Avastha is Kshudita if the planet is in an
enemy's sign, or conjunct an enemy or
aspected by an enemy or even be in
conjunction with Saturn.
If a planet is in a watery sign and be in aspect
to a malefic but not a benefic, the Avastha is
calledTrushita.
If a planet is in a friendly sign, or conjunct or
aspected by a benefic or is conjunct Jupiter, it
is said to be in Muditavastha.
If a planet is conjunct the Sun and is aspected
by or conjunct a malefic or is aspected by an
enemy, it is said to be in Kshobhitavastha.
The houses occupied by a planet in
Kshuditavastha or Kshobhitavastha are
destroyed.
19-23. The learned should estimate the effects
due to a house in the manner cited above ( with
the help of various kinds of avasthas), after
ascertaining the strength and weakness (of
various planets).
Weak planets cause reduction in good effects
while stronger ones give greater effects.
If a planet posited in the 10th
house in Lajjitavastha, Kshudhitavastha or
Kshobhitavastha, the person will always be
subjected to miseries.

If a planet in the 5th house is in Lajjitavastha,

there will be destruction of progeny, or there
will be only one surviving child.

Surely the wife of the native will die if there is

a planet in the 7th in Kshobhitavastha or in
Trushitavastha.

24-29. EFFECTS OF GARVITAVASTHA

ETC.:

A planet in Garvitavastha will cause happiness

through new houses and gardens, regalhood,
skill in arts, financial gains at all times, and
improvement in business.

A planet in Muditavastha will give residences,

clothes, ornaments, happiness from lands and
wife, happiness from relatives, living in royal
palaces, destruction of enemies, and
acquisition of wisdom and learning.

A planet in Lajjitavastha will give aversion to

God, loss of intelligence, loss of child, interest
in evil speeches, and listlessness in good
things.

A planet in Kshobhitavastha will give acute

penury, evil disposition, miseries, financial

downfall due to grief and passion, grief on
account of relatives, physical decline, troubles
from enemies, financial distress, loss of
physical strength, and an eclipsed mind due to
miseries.

through association with females, leading over
wicked (or evil) deeds, loss of wealth due to
one's own men, physical weakness, miseries
caused by evil people, and decline in honor.

30-37. CALCULATION OF SAYANA AND

OTHER AVASTHAS:

I'll now tell you of the avasthas viz. Sayana,

Upavesana, Netrapani, Prakasana, Gamana,
Aagamana, Sabha, Agama, Bhojana,
Nrityalipsa, Kautuka, and Nidra, and
the Chesthas of such avasthas.

Note the number of the stars (from Asvini)

occupied by the planet for which Avastha is to
be calculated.

 Multiply that number by the number

denoted by the planet (Sun 1, Moon 2,
etc.).
 The figure so arrived at be again
multiplied by the number of Navamsa
the planet is in.
 Add to this the number of birth
asterism, the number of ghatis of birth
and the number of signs the ascendant
gained from Aries.
 This figure be divided by 12 and the
remainder will indicate the
corresponding Avastha of the planet.

The sub state in the said Avastha can be found

out thus: multiply the figure denoted by the
Avastha concerned ( Sayana 1, Upavesana 2,
etc.) by the same figure and increase it by the
 figure denoted by the Anka value for the first
syllable of the native's personal name.

Divide the product so obtained by 12. The

remainder there of be further increased by
constant planetary increments thus: Sun 5,
Moon 2, Mars 2, Mercury 3, Jupiter 5, Venus
3, Saturn 3, Rahu 4 (and Ketu 4).

(Here the planet means the one for whom the

sub state is being known.) The product so
arrived at be divided by 3. In the process if the
remainder is 1, it is Drishti; if 2 Cheshta, and if
0 Vichestha.

38-39. EFFECTS OF CHESTA ETC:

If the sub state is Drishti in an Avastha, the

results being stated for the Avastha will be
medium, full in Chestha, and negligible
in Vichestha. The good and bad effects of
planets be deciphered based on the strength
and weakness of the planets. In exaltation, the
planets reveal effects in a pronounced manner
due to avasthas.
