Dear Yadu-srestha Prabhu,

 

Please accept my humble obeisances. All glories to Srila Prabhupada.

 

Thank you for your answer. However, I just read in a book by Dinesh S.

Mathur that the cadent houses are the 2nd, 5th, 8th and 11th houses, and the

succedent houses are 3rd, 6th, 9th and 12th. Maybe a different school has

different teachings?

It is very important for calculation of life span to see whether beneficial

and malefic planets are positioned in these houses, e.g. if beneficial

planets for the chart and the owner of the first house are in succedent

houses or malefic planets for the chart and the owner of the eight house are

in the angles, that would indicate a short life span.

 

Your servant,
