Astrological Principles

In Medical Astrology, every disease is predicted through some planetary combinations and positions.

• Sun is the main planet responsible for heart disease.
• Leo - Leo sign indicates the heart of the Kal Purush. Its affliction causes heart diseases.
• Fourth House - The Fourth House is also known as the House of Heart. It indicates the odds of complications and heart surgery.
• Fifth House - Affliction of the Fifth house and its Lord is very much responsible for causing heart disease.

Houses Responsible for Heart Disease

The First (House of Personality), the Sixth (House of Disease), the Eighth (House of Incurable Disease), and the Twelfth (House of Hospitalization) are the main houses responsible for heart diseases.

Planets Responsible for Heart Disease

• Mars (blood and circulatory system of the body)
• Saturn (blockages in body metabolism)
• Rahu (high blood pressure and chronic diseases)
• Ketu (low blood pressure and blood clots)

If any of these planets gets weak or afflicted in the First or Fourth House OR transits in the Sixth, Eighth or Twelfth House, then the native is likely to suffer from cardiovascular disease.
