Narrowing Down the Significators
If the Birth or Horary Chart indicates more than three or four significators with respect to the matter that is being judged, unimportant significators may be eliminated with the assistance of the Ruling Planets. Jot down the Ruling Planets (RP's) of the moment when you begin the process of analysing and judging the Horoscope.
The common planets between the significators (of the matter/event to be judged) and the RP's may be considered as the final significators, and the rest may be eliminated.

- An event happens during the joint period (Mahadasha, Bhukti, Pratyantardasha, Sookshma Dasa) of the significators of the houses under consideration.
- In cases where the significators of the houses under consideration exceed more than four, the unimportant significators should be eliminated as under:
- Preference should be given to Rahu or Ketu if it represents any significator.
- The planet whose Sub Lord is the significator of the house detrimental to the house or houses under consideration, should be eliminated first.

Longevity of Native's Mother
As Ketu represents Moon, omit Moon and retain Ketu. As Sun's Sub Lord, Saturn, occupies the first house of the Mother, omit it. So Ketu, Venus, and Rahu become the final significators of the Badhaka and Maraka houses as counted from the 4th for the native's Mother.
The native's Mother died on November 1, 1923 during the joint period of Ketu, Venus, and Rahu.

Marriage
Moon is in the sub of the Sun which is posited in the 6th, so omit the Moon.
Mercury, Ketu, Rahu, and Jupiter are in the sub Rahu which is posited in the 2nd and is significator of the 7th, so retain them.
It may be noted that the native passed the periods of Mercury and Ketu in his childhood. The period of Rahu will start in his old age, and there is no scope for the period of Jupiter. So these significator planets will work as Sub Period, inter period, and Sookshma period rulers.
The Native was running the period of Venus since January 13, 1929, and it continues up till January 13, 1949. Venus is the chief governor for marriage. It is in the Star of Jupiter and in the Sub of Saturn owning the 2nd. The Star Lord Jupiter aspects the 7th cusp, Moon owns the 7th, Mercury is in the 7th, and Rahu is in the 2nd. So Venus is a strong significator for marriage.
The Native got married on December 13, 1937 during the joint period (DBAS) of Venus/Rahu/Jupiter/Rahu dasas.
