Life Span:

Guru is the Karaka for Jeeva. Rahu is the karaka for Death.

The difference of Nakshatra Pada’s between Guru and Rahu will indicate the life
span.

 If Rahu and Guru are in the same sign are in the same direction, then the person is
short lived. If friendly planets aspect Guru, then the life span will be increased.

 If Guru is hemmed between two enemy planets, then the life span will be reduced.

 If Guru is hemmed between Mangal and Rahu, then the person will die unexpectedly
due to either heart attack or vehicle accident.

 If Sani is hemmed between Mangal and Rahu, then the person will die unexpectedly.

 If Surya is hemmed between Mangal and Rahu, then the father of the native will die
unexpectedly.
