In the Ashtakavarga of any planet, make the two reductions and multiply the total of the remaining benefic dots into the number of benefic dots (before reduction) in the particular bhava whereof the planet is the Karaka reckoned from the place occupied by the planet. Divide the product by 27 and ascertain the asterism corresponding to the remainder. When Saturn passes through this asterism, death will take place of the person indicated by the bhava and its Karaka. If the Sun be the bhavakaraka, it is the father that will die; if the Moon, the mother; if Mars, a brother; if Mercury, a relation; if Jupiter, a son; if Venus, a wife; if Saturn, it is the owner of the horoscope that will die.
