Your Horoscope and diseases

Dr. Shanker Adawal (Jyotishaacharya, PHD, MBA)

Cancer: The dreaded term for malignant growths and lumps. Saturn, Moon and dusthanas 6th, 8th and 12th seems to figure prominently in the charts of cancer patients. It relates the Lagna or its lord to the 6th, 8th & 12th house or their lords. These dusthans rule such traumic situations or events as would change the entire course of one’s life. Ketu also plays an important role as it is difficult to detect and diagnose Cancer.

Saturn characteristics of all that hardens, hinders, depletes, and suppresses would seem to be the best fitted planet to be associated with cancer. Moon, ruling the mind, and also all the excretions in the body system would also fit well in this context. All lumps and tumors are the accumulations of secretions that have been clogged or otherwise prevented from normal movement.

A study of several charts of cancer patients has shown a link between Moon and Saturn. This link is found in the Navmasa Chart. This does not mean necessarily mean that all charts where the Moon and Satrum are correlated are cases of cancer. But the majority of cancer cases have the moon-saturn disposition.

If Moon is afflicted in Navamsha chart by Saturn through positioning, aspecting or conjunction, it indicates the disease of cancer. Dashas or directional influences must also be seen for the disease of cancer.
