Long life and astrology

We all want to have a sound health and good long life. There are some very significant techniques to find out the long life of an individual through astrology. These techniques includes:

1. Saturn is the primary significator of longevity in astrology. 8th house is the house of death. If saturn is placed in 8th house, it can definitely increase the life span of the native to more than 70 years (deerghayu).
2. If the 8th lord is conjunct jupiter or 8th house is aspected by jupiter, It can lead to increased lifespan, since jupiter gives benefic results in all the houses which it aspects.
3. Lagna and Lagna lord aspected by benefics and in good houses respectively, leads to good health and long life.
4. The planet of vitality is Sun. The divisional chart which rules health is known as Trimshamsha (D-30). If Sun is strongly placed in lagna in D30, It is said to cancel all the malefic doshas present in the chart with respect to diseases, and hence gives long life.
5. One of the sutra says, if 6th and 12th is occupied by malefics (saturn, mars, rahu, ketu) and Benefics occupies kendra, the native will have a long life.
