बृहत्संहिता (आचार्य वराहमिहिर - स्थापत्य, खगोल, मौसम व जल विज्ञान)

292 बृहत्संहितायाम् [Adh. XXXIV. Sl. 12-15. Sloka 11.—When a planet (from Mars onwards) and the Moon are encircled by haloes, i. e. when a planet and a star are enclosed within the halo round the Moon, there will be rain within three days, or a war in a month. It is inauspicious to a king, if the lord of his Lagna or of the sign occupied by his natal star is enclosed within the halo. तथा च गर्गः त्रीणि यत्रावरुध्येरन्नक्षत्रं चन्द्रमा ग्रहः । त्र्यहेण वर्षतीन्द्रश्च मासाद्वा जायते भयम् ॥ परिवेषमण्डलगत्तो रवितनयः क्षुद्रधान्यनाशकरः । जनयति च वातवृष्टिं स्थावरकृषिकृद्भिहन्ता च ॥१२॥ भौमे कुमारबलपतिसैन्यानां विद्रवोऽग्निशस्त्रभयम् । जीवे परिवेषगते पुरोहितामात्यनृपपीडा ॥१३॥ मन्त्रिस्थावरलेखकपरिवृद्धिश्चन्द्रजे सुवृष्टिश्च । शुक्रे यायिक्षत्रियराज्ञीपीडा प्रियं चान्नम् ॥१४॥ क्षुदनलमृत्युनराधिपशस्त्रेभ्यो जायते भयं केतौ । परिविष्टे गर्भभयं राहौ व्याधिर्नृपभयं च ॥१५॥ Slokas 12-15.—Saturn inside a halo destroys base corn such as Priyangu, causes stormy rain and ruins trees and agriculturists. Mars inside it causes misery to boys (princes ?), commanders of armies and armies ; he occasions danger from fire and weapons. Jupiter under the same circumstances engenders trouble to royal pre- ceptors, ministers and kings. Mercury bestows prosperity on ministers, trees and writers and gives good rain. Venus is harmful to the marchers, Kshatriyas and queens, and makes food very costly. When Ketu is similarly situated, there will be danger from famine, fire, death, king and weapons. Rahu causes trouble to children in the womb, disease and danger to king.
