Medical Astrology postulates that a weak planet can bestow disease.If the sixth house is afflicted, digestive tract disorders are
indicated
If the fourth house is afflicted, it clearly means affliction to the
heart
( as the heart is the 4th house by correspondence).
Here are the correspondences between the 7 Deadly Sins &
the Seven planets
Jupiter -
Avarice
Venus -
Lust
Mars -
Anger
Saturn -
Pride
Moon -
Jealousy
Mercury -
Sloth
Sun -
Covetousness
Every man is born with a major flaw. By knowing which planet is
afflicted,
the astrologer can discern the Deadly Sin the native is afficted
with. If
Jupiter is weak, Avarice will be high in him. If Mars, anger and if
Venus,
lust etc. To overcome that vice, intense prayer and meditation is
required
and all vices can only be overcome by Grace Divine .
Medical Astrology's perspective about the 12 Houses of the Zodiac
Ist House
Head
2nd House
Face
Third House
Throat
Fourth House
Heart
Fifth House
Place beneath the heart
Sixth House
Stomach
Seventh House
Generative Organ
Eighth House
Upper Thigh
Ninth House
Thigh
Tenth House
Knee
Eleventh House
Calf
Twelfth House
Feet
Affliction to any house indicates affliction to the correspondingpart of the body. Rahu - or any other malefic - in the sixth isindicative of stomach trouble & ulceration. Fourth house
afflictionmeans that the heart is afflicted and first house affliction means
thatthe head is afflicted.Medical Astrology can therefore point to disease and using the yogictechnique of Pranic Therapy, the disease can be healed.

Shift of Stand From Head to Heart
Scientific research have accepted "psycho-neuro-immunology -
theimpact of mind on the immune system. "Cardiac-neuro-immunology"is also accepted - ( the impact of heart on the immune system ). TheBoth metaphorically and anatomically the centre of our action is the
heart. Our heart is 60 times stronger as an electrical generatorcompared to the brain. The heart is the big brother & the brain
is
the little brother. As all activities of the mind-body pivot around
thecentral powerhouse - our heart, we have two different existences,head-centred & heart-centred. The new science of Cardio-neuro-
immunology postulates that Self-healing requires a cardiocentricattention.We are judgemental if we live with our head-centred scriptOn the other hand, if we adopt a heart-centred way of living, we are
incapable of generating any enemy and Love Divine will cure us.
The Internal Healing Power of the body
The human body is remarkable in its own resilience or healing power.
The fiercely competitive world, the tension associated with job
& businessand an achievement oriented culture keeps our stress arousal levelabnormally high. This releases chemicals ( toxins ) such as cortisol,adrenalin & noradrenaline leading to suppression of the immune
systemand weakening of the body's healing power. We have to get away from
thisfrenzy & vigilance for effectuating healing. This diversion from
a stressaroused state is called altered state. In order to heal better, we
should be
able to enter into the altered state.
Altered State
An altered state is a state different form the normal awakened
state.We have three relative states of Consciousness - normal awakened
state( Jagrat ), dreaming state ( Swapna ) & Deep Sleep ( Sushupthi).Scientifically REM ( rapid eye movement ) is the Dreaming State and
non-REM ( non-rapid eye movement ) is the Deep Sleep state. Thereis a higher state which is called the meditative state. It is our
commonintuitive experience & logic that restful sleep is conducive to
healingThe interface of entering into sleep is called hypnagogic state
.Exitingfrom sleep is called hypnapompic state. The twilight state has alphatheta brain waves compared to beta waves during awakened state.The meditative state is the same as the twilight state,except that
weenter it and exit from it by choice. The meditative state allows our
mindand body to talk to each other. ( Normal brain activity is marked by
Betawaves of 25 cycles per second where meditative state is
characterisedby alpha waves of 8.5 cycles per second ).In summary, our stressful life-style does not allow us to enter the
alteredstate of sleep, daydream & meditation, to heal by proper
body-mindcommunication and so we have to take refuge in Yoga to effectuate
healing.
Opening the System to Divine Shakti or the Cosmic Prana
Scientifically, behind the evolution of the species ( material
evolution ),there is an evolution of Consciousness ( spiritual evolution). Our
lifehas only a symbolic value in the sense that it is good and necessaryas a Becoming; and all Becoming has Being as its goal &
fulfillmentand God is the only Being.
Those who find it difficult to follow these techniques can open
themselvesto the source of Divine Power through intense prayer. In the Geetha,the Lord promises that He takes care of the material welfare of thedevotee who depend on Him solely. He also gives the Solemn Assurance- that by giving up in heart and soul to him, the devotee will
overcome alldifficulties by Grace Divine. He also gives the Word of Refuge (
AbhayaVachana ) that His devotee shall never perish. By cultivating an
attitude oftrust & absolute self-surrender, we can open ourselves to Cosmic
Prana,Absolute self-reliance has been defined as Reliance on the Absolute
Self.When such a divine attitude becomes deeply ingrained in our psyche,we find that everything in Nature becoming favourable to us and theprocess of healing takes place in our psychophysical system.
Thousandsof people all over the world have found health, prosperity and peacethrough yogic methods. Prayer overcomes the resistance of the ego
&opens the chambers of the unconscious to the inflow of Divine Shakti
orCosmic Prana. For this, however, prayer must be done with intensity,sincerity & perseverance. Only through this kind of prayer can
we know
how Pranic Healing takes place.
The Grace always grants the
sincere prayers ! How strange isThy Grace !
Summing up, if we remove all mental & physical blocks and open
ourchannels to the Cosmic Prana, the Universal Stream of Consciousnesspervading the Universe, we can get ourselves healed. Since removingall blocks is difficult humanly, it is better to request for Divine
Help. By means of the greatest Art that is Bhakthi Yoga, all blocks
willbe removed by Grace Divine and the greatest doctor that Nature is
willheal us.
All glory to the All-Merciful, the All-Compassionate!
