Chapter 7

Health and longevity

1. If the lagna lord is associated with Jupiter, good longevity is indicated. Jupiter is the karaka for fortune, children and body
2. Saturn in association with the 8^th lord also confers long life. Saturn’s placement in the 8^th is also good for longevity
3. The 8^th lord in the lagna, along with Ketu, indicates short life
4. Sun combined with the lord of 9^th makes the father long-lived, provided they’re not together in 9^th. However, Sun’s placement in the 9^th shortens the father’s life, as does Moon in 4^th for the mother’s longevity
5. If the 9^th lord is in 11^th, long life to the father is indicated
6. Moon, when associated with the 4^th lord, indicates a long life to the mother
7. If either Mars or Jupiter is in 3^rd, harm will be caused to the native’s brothers
8. If the 3^rd is owned and occupied by Jupiter, the person will only have one brother
9. Jupiter in 5^th and Venus in 7^th lessen the longevity of children and spouse respectively
10. Long life to the native’s mother is surely to be predicted if Moon conjoins the 4^th lord in 5^th, 9^th or 10^th
11. If the 4^th lord is in 4^th and it happens to be its moolatrikona, the mother will live long
12. The mother’s longevity will be curtailed by Saturn’s aspect on both the 4^th lord and waning Moon
