Transiting Rahu and Ketu play a significant role in timing the death of a native.
When transiting Rahu connects with natal Jupiter then Rahu becomes (or) when transiting Jupiter connects with natal Rahu. When transiting Ketu connects with natal Saturn then Ketu acts as (or) when transiting Saturn connects with natal Ketu. Whenever transiting Rahu establishes connection with natal Jupiter then it creates problems of ill health and accident to the Jeeva Karaka i.e., to the native and whenever transiting Ketu connects with natal Saturn ( Karma Karaka) then it creates problems in the professional field connections are required simultaneously . for death of the native,
1) All these planets being slow in motion, very few times it will occur simultaneously in a life time. 2) After determining the longevity of the native (short, medium or long life) by other methods of longevity determination, astrologer can apply above rule to find out the exact year of death of the native. We will test the above rules with the help of following charts:

If you take mean nodes then Rahu will change into Leo and Ketu will change into Aquarius and this technique will not work. In order for young ones to determine which nodes to use, true or mean nodes, border line cases like this one are the most important to form opinions after a detailed study of such border line cases. – SA Publisher.

ny technique cannot be demonstrated over 1000 ’s of charts by any writer and sometimes readers get swayed over by articles where the author has picked up few charts and showed its working but there are always exception charts and we did find some such charts where this technique works with 70 % of the postulates only unless one uses the 2 nd aspect of nodes which is a point of debate among nadi astrologers and not used here. One must also remember that no technique of a type of event (in this case death) will work on all charts of that type of event, some other technique will work on that chart, hence the Rishis have given various methods of transits on a particular type of event and not just one technique. Even the Rishis with all their divya drishti (divine sight) have not come out with a technique that will work on all charts like a panacea for all evils type. Modern astrologers commit this mistake of creating one Master technique for an event and so do modern readers commit the mistake of testing one technique on all charts. This type of mistake has happened by most of the readers in the last 100 years of modern astro journalism. I request all my colleagues to test this technique on more and more horoscopes and refine it further.
