Human life is mostly a struggle with the unforeseen.  It is full of pleasures and pains.  Many a times, pain is caused by a disease.  Science of medical astrology, if properly utilized, can show the best way to handle human life’s uncertainties. It has the capacity to pre-dict in advance as to when a particular disease would occur, what would be its nature and outcome.  An analytical study of a horoscope comprising signs, houses, planets, divisional charts, dashas and the transits, helps an expert astrologer to diagnose in advance the possibility about the occurrence of a particular disease in the life of the native, whose horoscope is under his study.

HOW THE DISEASE OF ‘ASTHMA’ BE ASSESSED FROM A HOROSCOPE?

Asthma, in medical science, is a condition, in which airways narrow and swell and produce extra mucus.  Breathing becomes difficult and it triggers coughing, wheezing and shortness of breath.  Medical science tries to cure it after it has already occurred.  But an Astrologer, with the help of science of medical astrology, can forecast the happening of asthmatic conditions well in advance by looking into a disease prone horoscope.  In astrology asthmatic conditions in a human life are mainly found to be occurring due to the affliction of Saturn, moon, the first, third and the fourth houses and watery signs in a particular horoscope.

When an asthmatic patient contacts a doctor, he is told that inhaling of polluted air has weakened his lungs and that is responsible for his chest infection. There is no doubt that environment and quality of air that we inhale has direct impact on the health.  The air that one breathes is managed by respiratory system of one’s body.  It is generally said that excessive inhaling of polluted air is like smoking hundred cigarettes.

However in astrology, the possibility of the occurrence of asthma is detected in advance from the study of placement of planets mercury and moon and the third and fourth houses in a horoscope.  Gemini is an airy sign.  The sign Cancer embodies the lungs and the heart of an individual.  Thus, the aerial route from Gemini to Cancer becomes the region of asthma and moon and mercury become the key planets.  Saturn also plays significant role in the cause and relief from asthma.

EXPERIENCE HAS SHOWN TO KEEP INTO ACCOUNT AND CONSIDER THE FOLLOWING BEFORE PREDICTING THE NATURE AND OUTCOME OF A DISEASE:-

1. Ascendant Lord when found weak and malefic in the ascendant indicates a body susceptible to disease.
2. Malefics in Kendra (1, 4, 7, 10 houses) Rahu-Ketu-Saturn-Mars render the Kendra weak and horoscope disease prone.
3. If 6, 8 and 12 contain more benefices and malefics in Kendra (1, 4, 7 and 10 houses) and trikon (1, 5, 9) it also indicates a body vulnerable to disease.
4. If Lords of Kendra and trikonas aspect their own houses, whether benefice or malefic, it indicates gain of strength by Kendras. It is good for sound health.
5. The benefics in kendras help to overcome the disease.
6. The cold planets Saturn, Moon and Rahu have been found to be more responsible for causing asthma than the other planets. Their weakness and strength must be weighed minutely before predicting the disease of asthma.
