DRISTIS OF RASHIS

1-3. Rashi Drishtis. O Maitreya, now detailed are the Drishtis, emanating from the Rashi Mesh etc. Every Movable Rashi drishties the 3 Fixed Rashis, leaving the Fixed Rashi adjacent to it. Every Fixed Rashi gives Drishti to the 3 Movable Rashis, barring the adjacent Movable Rashi. And a Common Rashi gives a Drishti to the other three Common Rashis. The Grah in a Rashi gives the same Drishti, as the Rashi (in which the Grah is) does. 4-5. Dristhis of the Grahas. A Grah in a
Movable Rashi gives a Drishti to the other 3 Fixed Rashis, leaving the Fixed Rashi next to it. A Grah in a Fixed Rashi does not give a Drishti to the next Movable Rashi, but the remaining 3 Movable Rashis. The one in a Common Rashi gives a Drishti to the remaining 3 Common Rashis. Simultaneously a Grah in the Rashi, that receives a Drishti, is also subjected to the Drishti concerned. 6-9. Diagram of Dristhis. As depicted by Lord Brahma, I now narrate the diagram of Drishtis, so
that Drishtis are easily understood by a mere sight of the diagram. Draw a square, or a circle marking the 8 directions (4 corners and 4 quarters thereof). Mark the zodiacal Rashis, as under: Mesh and Vrishabh in East, Mithun in the North-East, Kark and Simh in the North, Kanya in the North-West, Tula and Vrischik in the West, Dhanu in the South-West, Makar and Kumbh in the South and Meen in the South-East. Addition Santhanam till Ch. 9. The Drishtis (as per the earlier Slokas) can be shown in a square diagram, or circular diagram (as per convenience).
