particular attention to them and apply them all practically to the time
given for the menses, so that they may be able to draw proper
inferences and make correct future predictions about the girl and all
her prospects in life. I challenge, if any astrological publications in
England, Continental countries or America have given any references
to these details or even to this subject of the appearance of the first.
menses. If only we are willing to collect all the stanzas bearing on this
particular subject of menses, they will at least come up to 13,000
verses. The dabbling and shallow brained critics cannot commit a
more grotesque blunder than to say that the great grandfather of a
child is the offspring of that infant. Sane men take a hearty laugh over
these idiosyncrasies and let these egotists to dance in their own
hallucinations. I shall now come to the subject proper. Puberty or
Menses is a physical change in the constitution of a girl, where a
reddish fluid called shonitha is suddenly expelled from the sexual
organ, and changing the whole of her future life according as it
appears on an auspicious or inauspicious time. The details are very
interesting and instructive and throw a flood of light on the subtle
influences, which mark that event and which have such a direct
influence on the future destiny of the girl. Puberty in Sanskrit is called
Ruthu or phenomenon which will have regular monthly appearances.
When Chandra is not in upachayas, viz., 3, 6, 10 and 11 and when
the Lagna is powerfully aspected by MANGAL the appearance of first
Menses should be predicted. Such combinations may occur when the
girl is young, when is old, when she suffers from various diseases
which cause irregular menses or stop them altogether. But there are
special combinations with which menses app ear and also disappear.
I shall not expand on this subject, any further here. It will be explained
in its proper place (see my notes on Brihat Jataka).
