Astrology & Disease:

Meaning of Disease – Disease primarily known as medical conditions that are associated with specific symptoms and signs. A disease may be caused by external factors such as pathogens or by internal dysfunctions.                                                                                                            For example, internal dysfunctions of the immune system, which further can produce a variety of different diseases, including various forms of immunodeficiency, hypersensitivity, allergies, and autoimmune disorders.

Prarbhdha Karma & disease -                                                                                                                                                          

 “Purva Janama Krutham Paapam Vyaadhi roopaena baadhitham “

Means: Any bad Karma done by us in the past or in previous birth will manifest in the form of disease (Vyaadhi roopaena) and make us suffer from its consequences. (Among so many diseases which keeps troubling us, as one of the diseases).

Prarbhdha, it is virtually certain amount of data (of previous Karmas) allotted for this life (as per the capacity allotted for this present incarnation). The Karmic burden accumulated is so huge that it will take many births to discharge them. Thus, one thing is clear that it is the nature who defines the Prarabdh, and accordingly an allotted time period is given to mitigate /that one could handle. It is destined to be worked out in this birth. One cannot avoid, however, can be altered with his virtuous karmas in this birth.   

 

Tridoshas & Diseases – Doshas are a central element and the basis of what makes it such a personalized approach to health. The doshas are comprised of the five elements, and are known as Vaat, Pitta, and Kapha. The leading dosha indicates unique energy display as physical, mental/emotional and relational characteristics and tendencies. Tridosha Siddhant applicable in Medical Astrology is the basis of every disease.

The planets & Nakshatras also embody the qualities of these doshas. Find below the list of the planets and doshas they primarily manifest:

 

Sun	Moon	Mars	Mercury	Jupiter	Venus	Sat	Rahu	Ketu
Pitta / Bilious	Kapha + Vaat	Pitta / Bilious	Vaat+ Pitta+ Kapha	Kapha	Vaat+ Kapha	Vaat+ Kapha*	Vaat+ Kapha	Pitta / Bilious

 

Vaat – Vaat represents the motion (Air). It effects the function of circulation, functioning of nervous system, respiration, speech, and creativity. When Vaat is imbalance, this indicates too much air element in body, and results in excess movement and ungroundedness on both the inner and other level of human lives.  As mentioned above, Air Sign corresponds to Vaat dosha, therefore, disturbance to the mind, nervous system, communication’.

Pitta – Pitta represents the heat and light (Fire). It effects the function of Digestion, intellect, vision, metabolism, even courage and cheerfulness, When Pitta is out of balance, it means too much fire, and results excess heat and combustion that activate too much intensity, frustration, and aggressiveness. Fire Sign corresponds to Pitta dosha, therefore relating to the digestive system, circulatory system, perception

Kapha – Kapha represents the physical structure & balance of fluids, growth, potency, secrations, compassion, patience. When Kapha is out of balance, there is too much earth, and results in excessive couch potatoness (laziness), that activates lethargy and dullness. Water Sign corresponds to Kapha dosha, therefore, relating to the understanding, heaviness, liquid and the physical body(structure) is made up of 7 tissues- RBC, Fat, Bone, & Bone Marrow, Muscle, Plasma, Sperm.

Therefore, looking at these traits such as behaviour, emotions & physical traits one can easily identify the person as a Vaat ,  Pitta or Kapha Prakriti .
