Whenever Dharma (righteousness) suffers decline and
Adharma (unrighteousness) gains ascendance, it is then that
I manifest Myself. In order to rescue the noble, to destroy the
wicked, and to establish Dharma (again), I manifest Myself
from time to time.
Scope of Medical Astrology
• Identification of a healthy and a disease prone chart.
• Timing of illness : Caution or warning.
• Nature of illness : Diagnosis; pathogenesis.
• Outcome of disease : Course of illness.
Scope of Medical Astrology (contd.)
• Complications arising during the course of illness or its treatment.
• Best method of treatment: Conservative, operative, astrological.
• Residual effects of disease or of its treatment.
• Determination of longevity; nature of death.
• Establishing the genetic link between the parent and the child,
or between siblings.
• Astrological remedies.
Concept of Kalapurusha
• ‘Time’ personified.
• Kalapurusha is stretched over the zodiac.
• Twelve rashis are equivalent to twelve body regions of
Kalapurusha.
• Likely to indicate global trends more than events at
individual’s level.
• Provides confirmatory evidence in a native's chart.
• The twelve houses represent the native more accurately.

Fundamental Principles of
Medical Astrology
• Lagna is ‘Body’.
• So are the twelve houses of the horoscope.
• Grahas are subservient to the lagna.
• What is adverse for the lagna is adverse for the body.
Key Planets – Principles
Part-1
(a) Natural benefics as lords of the kendras shed their
beneficence.
(b) malefics as lords of kendras shed their malefic nature.
(c) Lords of trikonas give benefic results no matter whether
by their inherent nature they are benefics or malefics.
(d) Lords of the third, the sixth and the eleventh houses are
always malefic.
(e) Lords of the second, the twelfth and the eighth houses
behave as neutrals.
Key Planets – Principles
Part-2
(a) Of the lords of the kendras, the 4th lord is more powerful than
the lagna lord; the 7th lord is more powerful than the 4th lord;
and the 10th lord is more powerful than the 7th lord.
(b) Of the trikona lords, the 5th lord is more powerful than the
lagna lord, while the 9th lord is more powerful than the 5th lord.
(c) Of the 3, 6, 11 group, the sixth lord is more powerful than the
3rd lord while the 11th lord is more so than the 6th lord.
(d) Of the 2, 12, 8 group, the 12th lord is more powerful than
the 2nd, while the 8th lord is more so than the 12th.
(e) Stronger house effect overcomes the weaker house effect!
Key Planets – Principles
Part-3
(a) Eighth house is the 12th from the 9th (indicating loss of
Bhagya); hence its lord is ever malefic.
(b) The eighth lord is still more malefic when it also lords
over the 3rd or the 11th house.
(c) The eighth lord becomes a benefic when it also owns a
trikona.
(d) The evil effects of the eighth house lordship do not apply
to the Sun or the Moon.
Key Planets – Principles
Part-4
(a) When a planet owns both a kendra and a trikona, it becomes
particularly useful and is called a Raja-yoga-karaka.
(b) Only the ownership of a kendra does not convert a malefic into a
benefic. The malefic must also own a trikona to completely shed
its malevolence.
(c) The blemish of kendra lordship, as applicable to benefics, increases
progressively from the Moon, to Mercury, to Jupiter, to Venus.
(d) Full Moon, Mercury, Jupiter and Venus, in this order, are
progressively more powerful as benefics.
(e) Waning Moon, the Sun, Saturn and Mars, in this order, are
progressively more powerful as malefics.
Key Planets – Principles
Part-5 : Relationship of planets
(a) By location in the same house (conjunction).
(b) By mutual aspect.
(c) By an exchange of houses (Parivartana Yoga).
(d) When one of them is placed in the other’s house and this
latter aspects the former.
Key Planets – Principles
Part-6 : Rahu and Ketu
(a) Rahu and Ketu give results according to the house
where they are located; and according to the planet
(i.e., the lord of a house) whom they join.
(b) Rahu and Ketu become Yogakarakas in the following
situations:
(i) Placed in a trikona with a kendra lord.
(ii) Placed in a kendra with a trikona lord.
(c) Rahu also behaves as Saturn and Ketu also as Mars.

Arishta-Bhanga: Cancellation of Arishta
• No Balarishta to be pronounced without idenditying
Arishta Bhanga
• Strong Jupiter in lagna is the best protection; other
benefics too protect
• When lagna lord aspects the lagna, the Balarishta
comes under the sway of dahsa order
• Moon in 6H or 8H becomes a protector for day birth
in Krishna Paksha or night birth in Shukla Paksha

Chart Analysis
1. Static Element: To establish the inherent promise in
the horoscope. This is done through the study of the
lagna chart and the vargas (especially navamsha,
drekkana, dwadashamsha and trimshamsha).
2. Dynamic Element: For timing of events. This is done
by employing dasha (preferably more than one dasha)
and gochara (transits).
Timing of Illness
1. Dasha: Two or three dashas to be preferred.
a) Vimshottari: MD, AD, PD.
b) Yogini: MD, AD.
c) Chara: MD, AD.
2. Gochara: Transits.
a) Gross.
b) Subtle: Varshaphala/Ashtakavarga.
Use of Dasha in Timing of Illness
• MD, AD, PD of a functional malefic.
• MD, AD, PD of a maraka.
• MD, AD, PD of a Trika lord.
• Combustion or retrogression of dasha lord(s).
• MD, AD, PD lords linked to L/LL.
• Affliction of dasha lords by natural malefic.
• Affliction by Trika houses/lords.
• Involvement of 22nd Drekkana/64th navamsha.
• Affliction by Gulika.
• Involvement of Mrityu Bhaga.
• Confirmation in the vargas.
• Adverse dasha order.
• Adverse transits.
Importance of dasha sequence
(a) Good dasha followed by bad dasha : Need for caution.
(b) Bad dasha followed by good dasha : Recovery.
(c) Bad dasha followed by bad dasha : Prolongation of illness;
complications.
(d) Bad dasha followed by bad dasha, followed by another
bad dasha : No recovery possible.
Signs of Relief
• Benefic influences on L, LL, dasha lords.
• Inherent strength in the chart: Strong lagna, benefics
in kendras/trikonas, malefic in houses 3, 6, 11.
• Improvement in dasha order.
• Improvement in transits.
