This page relates ‘Subperiods in the Period of the Mars (bhauma-antardasha)’ of the English translation of Balabhadra’s Hayaratna—a significant work within the realm of Indian astrology, particularly focused on the Tajika tradition, which adeptly intertwines ancient Indian and Perso-Arabic astrological knowledge. The Hayaratna acts as both an analytical commentary and a guidebook for practitioners keen on exploring horoscopic astrology, particularly the art of predicting annual occurrences (in Sanskrit known as Varshaphala) based on astrological calculations.

[Tājikasāra 318–323 says:]
The [sub]period of the sun occurring in the period of Mars brings forth acquisition of wealth, gain of gold and land, the support of friends, children and so on, and happiness.
The [sub]period of the moon occurring in the period of Mars is good for men and brings forth gain of gold, women, silver and wealth, happiness and victory over enemies.
[The subperiod] of Mercury in the ongoing period of Mars makes bad losses, discord with friends and children, danger from enemies, unhappiness and manifold evils for men.
The [sub]period of Jupiter occurring in the period of Mars makes loss of happiness and wealth, evils to[1] one’s friends, discord with one’s own people, and bad food.
The [sub]period of Venus in the period of Mars makes disputes with fools, discord with one’s own people, onset of illness, danger from the king [and from] enemies, and abundant evils for men.
The [sub]period of Saturn, if occurring in the period of Mars, brings men affliction of the eyes, danger from evil [men], blood disease, and enemies, [danger] from the king, and discord with one’s own people.
