Longevity Research
New Theory of Life
Span
By
Basilioli Sandro, (Vediko),
Italy
Edited and Explained by : Rajendra
Shah, India
[The first introductory article on the
Longevity theory by the author was published
in the Previous Issues of SA. This is the
second Article. However, it is the first step
towards the authors own research on
Longevity, coming on the pages of SA with
further two articles based on Late Shri
Pravin Jagads Method of Longevity. We
hope the readers will test the method and
express their view on this novel tool for
deciphering the most secret code behind the
timing of the eternal event of mortal being.

3 STEP Life Span Vedic Theory ( PART 1 )
Longevity is the most difficult
subject in Astrology. Since five years I
am doing hard research testing nearly all
the methods in the classics and some
novel methods e.g. Pravin Jagad system.
For my humble opinion, the best
methods are the methods given by Shri
Pravin Jagad, Respected Shri Iranganti
Rangacharyaji and Shri Manubhai Shah. If
you first decide the probable lifespan to
be SHORT, MIDDLE or LONG life and
then use the systems given by the said
three authors, you will be able to predict the right period for exit from this world for a
human being. Here I am presenting a new theory for Longevity using a new method to
find a rough age estimate for lifespan. This is the primary broad estimate of span of the
life and so I call it Pam-1.
In this theory, I have utilized D3 (Dreshkana), D9 (Navamsha) and D12
(Dwadashamsha) division charts ( ) for Life Span determination with good
results. The pointers are the Lagna and Hora Lagna of all three varga charts above. The
calculation of Hora lagna is taken as given by the Jagannatha Hora Software (freely
downloadable from http://www.vedicastrologer.org). The preference for the calculation
of Sun Rise is to be set as The tip of the sun is truly on the easten horrizon. Its the
traditional Hora Lagna of Parasara. One could try to test it with other Hora Lagna too.
The problems of using Rasi Chart in testing Parashara and Jaimini PAM block was that In
the cases of twins born in less than a minute, the longevity was the same. So I decided to
try the division charts using the Phaladeepika method with giving the Dwadashamsha Pam
more importance. Lahiri Ayamansa has been used in all calculations.
[ Editors Note :
STEP - 1 : In this method, to find out longevity of any native,, we have to make the three varga
charts viz. D-3, D-9 and D-12 and note the signs of Ascendant and Hora Lagna. The author has
used two pointers for three divisional charts viz. D-3, D-9 and D-12 each, i.e. three set of two
pointers to decide the longevity. This gives total nine combinations for Longevity. The table
showing all this combinations is given below as Table-1.

Step- 2 : Now as per above Table-1, check the signs of Ascendant sign and Hora Lagna of all
three D-3, D-9 and D-12 charts. An example is shown in following Figures 1 2 - 3 to decide the
longevity. As per the nature of the signs, find the Longevity for each of this Chart. Thus you find
three letters for Longevity given by each divisional chart, as shown in Table-2. This Three Letter
code is very important to find out the span of Life.

D3 : Lagna = Karka ( Cardinal );
Hora lagna = Mesha ( Cardinal)
+ =

; Cardinal + Cardinal = Long (L)

Figure : 2

D-9 : Lagna =

Aquarius ( Fixed );
Hora lagna =

( Fixed )
+ =

; Fixed + Fixed = Short (S)

Figure : 3

D-12 : Lagna = Pisces ( Mutable );
Hora lagna =

( Mutable)
+ =

; Dual + Dual = Medium (M)

Table-2 ( For the Charts shown above)
D-3 Longevity D-9 Longevity D-12 Longevity
First Letter
(L, S, or M)
Second Letter
(L, S, or M)
Third Letter
(L, S, or M)
L S M
As shown in above example charts the three letter code becomes L-S-M.
Step-3: Now, the author has devised the Life spans estimates based on various combinations of this
three letters code, as given in following Table-3.
Table-3
Short life

Middle life

Long life

S-S-S = 12 y to 32 y S-M-M = 33 y to 67 y S-L-L = 62 y to 93 y
M-S-S = 12 y to 36 y M-M-M= 36 y to 72 y M-L-L = 69 y to 100 y
L-S-S = 12 y to 42 y L-M-M = 40 y to 82 y L-L-L = 78 y to 108 y
L-M-S = 12 y to 44 y L-S-M = 34 y to 70 y S-M-L = 60 y to 91 y

For the above example, as per the Three letter code L-S-M, the Longevity is given as 34 y to
70 y. (Middle Longevity) - Editor]
If two groups indicate the same Longevity, it is taken as final. If all groups give
different Lifespan, take the Dwadashamsha as final. This was applied on more than 200
charts of known personalities. The formula of ages is based on my research only.

Chart 1: Albert Einstein



He has lived up to 76 years. In the division chart D3 Lagna is libra and HL is Leo. a
Cardinal and a Fixed signs give middle life = M. In D9 Lagna in Pisces and HL in Taurus
Dual and a Fixed signs respectively, give Long life= L, in D12 Lagna in Capricorn and HL
in Libra both Cardinal signs gives long life= L , so the formula is: M L - L and looking
at TABLE-3 is, from 69y to 100y.

Chart 2: Indira Gandhi:
She has lived up to 66years. In the division chart D3 Lagna is in Pisces and HL in
Scorpion a Dual and a Fixed signs respectively, so the life is long= L , in D9 Lagna in
Pisces HL in scorpion a dual and a fixed signs so the life is long= L in D12 Lagna in twins
HL in Capricorn a Dual and a Cardinal signs respectively, so the life is short= S ,so the
formula is: L-L-S and looking at TABLE A is, from 62y to 93y.


[Editor : The D-3, D-9 and D-12 charts for Mrs. Indira Gandhi, India are given below for ready
reference of the readers. The Asc and HL are marked with Blue and Red rings respectively.
Looking to the above charts, following table is made for determining Longevity.
Chart Asc. Sign HL sign Longevity
D-3 12=Dual 8=Fixed L
D-9 12=Dual 12=Dual L
D-12 3=Dual 10=Cardinal S

Now, from this three letter code L-L-S, looking to Table-3, Indira Gandhis Life span is arrived as
62 y to 93 y. Readers are requested to test the charts in this way. We will discuss more examples in
the next articles.





Chart 3: Galileo Galilei


He has lived up to 78 years .In the D3 chart Lagna is in Pisces and HL in scorpion a dual
and fixed signs it gives long life = L , in the D9 chart Lagna in Aquarius and HL in Virgo
signs a fixed and dual sign respectively, it gives a long life = L , in the D12 chart lagna is
in Aries and hl in Aquarius a Cardinal and Fixed signs respectively, it gives a Middle
life = M , so the formula is: L-L-M and looking at TABLE - 3 is, from 69y to 100y.

Chart 4: Maria Callas
.
She has lived up to 53 years . In the D3 chart Lagna in and HL in Pisces a dual sign so the
life is middle = M in D9 Lagna and HL in Sagittarius a dual sign again is middle life= M
in D12 Lagna and HL in Taurus sign and life is short= S , so the formula is M-M-S and
looking at TABLE -3 goes from 33y to 67y.

Chart 5: Swami Vivekanda


He lived up to 39 years. In D3 Lagna and HL in leo a fixed sign it shows a short life = S ,
in D9 Lagna in scorpion and HL in libra a fixed and cardinal signs, it shows a middle life
= M , in D12 Lagna in libra and HL in leo a cardinal sign and a fixed sign , it shows a
middle life = M so the formula is in TABLE A : S-M-M = 33Y TO 67Y.
