Can planetary afflictions cause weight gain?

Obesity causes depression and many other serious issues for people. With loss of self esteem, people begin to feel depressed. Let us see the the causes of gaining weight:

Apart from eating high calorie food, obesity is caused by:

- genetic factors
- liver not functioning well
- hypothyroidism
- eating too much junk food
- metabolic disorders
- endocrine system not functioning well
- hypogonadism
- problems with hypothalamus - due to stress, which causes bad effects on the metabolic disorder
- people who sleep in the day can expect their fat to increase more
- if your routine is not right, then it will cause "medh" to accumulate in your body on the back, chest, and in the bones.
- if the way you eat is not correct, then that also causes the fat to increase
- whenever earth and water elements in the body get disbalanced, it causes the fat to increase in the body


Doing astrological remedies helps lower fat very quickly, sometimes quicker than dietary problems.

 The mukhya graha/main planet is responsible for your body, mind, and wealth.

Moon:


Moon and Venus both increase fat. If your birthchart is effected too much by Moon or Venus, then your fat increases, but you still look attractive. You will have chubby cheeks and your skin and face will always be soft looking. However, you still have to suffer through the problems caused by obesity.

You will have too much phlegm and water in the body. You need to lower the amount of anxiety you undertake.

People who plan, read, and write, will have a great desire to eat a lot of sweets as their Moon is very strong.

If your Moon is in the 1st, 5th, or 9th house (shows negative Moon), then your walk will be generally slow, so you should do brisk walking to get rid of your fat. However, if your Moon is strong and positive, then the work you do will be quite fast despite being fat.

Use "lavan" to keep the Moon related fat away. Don't eat cold things. Also, you should not be in an air-conditioned environment. Do things to increase your sweating. Don't let the cold in your body increase.

JUPITER:


Jupiter although gives a lot of intelligence, gets you out of troubled situations, it also gives fat in the body.

If Jupiter is good, the person is very learned, makes one interested in religious activities. On the other hand, a positive Jupiter one to be a glutton. It causes fat in the belly, increased cholestrol, pains in the arms and legs, makes one lazy.

So, you should do some remedies, otherwise, it will cause a quick weight gain after 42 years.

Remedies:

Start drinking warm water immediately after every meal.

To keep Moon, Venu, and Jupiter balanced, don't eat anything cold.

Drink buttermilk at room temperature instead of eating yoghurt.

Reduce the intake of sugar and salt.

Eat papaya as much as you can.

Make sure you do some work which makes you sweat.

For Venus, put some "medohar" in warm water and take it 3 times a day.

For Jupiter, take a few "tez-patta" along with a bit of turmeric, put 4 glasses of water and boil it until you are left with just one glass of water. Then add 1 spoon of honey and drink it.

Take 30ml aloe vera juice and mix 2ml amla juice to it and start drinking it twice a day.

Stop eating white flour (maida) and white rice (which has "maadh"). Instead, take the maadh along with a bit of salt, this will help decrease your weight.

Don't sleep too much and also don't wear gold too much.

Don't drink too much milk or sugar in tea. Drink green tea instead.

Make sure you chew your food properly.

Eat triphala vati with some warm water after food.

After food, sit in "vajraasana" for 5 minutes.

People who complain too much, have a lot of gas in them, so stop complaining.

Do tadasana, swargasana, agnisaar kriya, halasana, bhastrika pranayam for 30 minutes morning and evening before food.

Eat triphala after food before sleeping.

Add fenugreek seeds' powder in the food.

Take moong and masoor dal instead of the heavy legumes.

Stop sleeping in the day.

Do the remedies in a group if possible.

Don't be under too much stress.

Don't start exercising too much abruptly.

Don't eat banana, sugarcane, kathal, eggplants or mangoes - and eat fruits instead of their juice.

Planetary Configuration That Cause Depression - How to Cope With Depression Astrologically?

Depression: Causes and Remedies in Astrology


What is Depression?

According to MediLexicon's Medical Dictionary, depression is: 

"a mental state or chronic mental disorder characterized by feelings of sadness, loneliness, despair, low self-esteem, and self-reproach; accompanying signs include psychomotor retardation (or less frequently agitation), withdrawal from social contact, and vegetative states such as loss of appetite and insomnia."

Common Symptoms of Depression:


  • In a layman's language, depression is caused when we don’t get the things we want. 
  • They also feel like they must be responsible for everything essentially feeling as though they hold the world on their shoulders.
  •  When they don't live up to their own expectations, the guilt sets in, this makes the situation worse. 

Depression is a universal experience. Most of us experience depression up to some degree or another during the course of our life. If a person is strong-willed, they will come over it easily if not, it can be fatal, can give birth to suicidal tendency also. 

One may wonder why some people have the ability to meet challenges and transition while others become bitter and hopeless as if it was destined by the planets in the birth chart. In this respect, astrology can really help as there are several indicators that strongly suggest the timing and onset for depression. 

Main Planets & Houses that cause depression

Saturn signifies limitations, restrictions, structure, authority, discipline, boundary, striving, responsibilities, depression, and stability in astrology. 

Depression is mostly a psychological phenomenon. Moon is the psyche planet. It deals with our emotions, our desires and our expectations.

Saturn is known as the great malefic planet. It is a planet which gives you results of your karma, for good karma it rewards and for bad karma it punish. 

When it connects with Moon through its sign, conjunction, and aspect or through nakshatra it causes depression during its transit and dasha. 

Moon is a watery planet. It represents our emotions, attitude towards life, relationship with the mother or nature of mother, application of thoughts and ideas, presentation skills and ability to enjoy things. 

Anxiety, over emotional nature, inability to enjoy life, lack of confidence, insecurity and over-possessiveness are some of the indications of bad condition of Moon in ones horoscope. 

Badly placed Moon can cause a lot of mental and emotional problems that go a long way in weakening our body. If your mind is unhealthy then you're bound to have lots of physical problems sooner or later. 

Headaches, migraines, palpitations, pain in the neck, body and joints are some of the most common ailments that a bad moon causes. It causes deficiency of calcium. Psychiatrists and astrologers will both generally agree that a major factor in depression is the feeling of powerlessness. For the psychological approach, getting the sense of empowerment can only help the person to come over from the situation of depression.

If proper remedies are performed, a person can get relief from depression and stressful life.

Jupiter went retrograde on 5th February, 2017 :: How will it affect you?

How you will be affected by Jupiter going retrograde on 5th February 

Along with planetary movements and positions, retrogression is an important phenomenon in astrology. 

The retrogression of Jupiter on Virgo starts on 5th of Feb 2017. 

Jupiter is considered the planet which impacts your wisdom and decision making abilities. So its retrogression can cause some confusion and also impact your relationship with seniors and the elderly. 

Retrogression of Jupiter can bring in some unexpected fortune for those who have conviction about their goals and capabilities; at the same time it can prolong desired results for those who are deceitful to self and to those who are not fully convinced about their own capabilities. 

We associate Jupiter, the first of the “superior” or outer planets (affecting the collective rather than the personal) with growth, expansion and luck which, if exaggerated, can also lead to greed and dissatisfaction in some cases, making us believe that the grass is greener elsewhere and so prompting us to explore further.

Jupiter in Libra can be associated with truth, justice and kindness towards ourselves in first place and then towards others as a consequence.

As it goes into retrograde for the next 120 days, the planet turns its energy of expansion inward so personal growth can take place. 

And if we devote ourselves to reaching self-awareness during this introspective period, all of our hopes and dreams will have the chance to materialize.

If we refuse to focus on our own inner growth, however, we may notice a tendency to procrastinate by getting stuck in the “planning phases” of our projects. 

On the other hand, if you’ve been working really hard at getting ahead in your career and neglecting your own health and wellness, Jupiter may cause you to recognize the problem. 

You may find yourself more willing to admit to your overindulgence and to take the time to get that sorted out.


Overall, be prepared for the hard work you’ve been doing to turn inward.

Astrology helps in solving Love, Relationships and Compatibility issues

One of the best uses of astrology is in analyzing relationships. 
Astrology can help explain why we have the friends and partners we do, and how we get along with other people by noting areas of harmony and cooperation as well as possible stress and discord. 
  • Have you ever wondered why you are sexually attracted to someone? Chances are you have one of the sexual planets (Venus, Mars, Pluto) forming a close angle with one or more of their sexual planets.
  •  Do you ever wonder why you can't seem to get along with someone, despite your best efforts? You may have a personal planet such as the Sun or Moon forming a difficult angle to a malefic planet such as Mars or Saturn. 
  • In this way, relationship astrology, or "synastry", can be a useful tool to help us make the most of our relationships.
If you are single.......

If you are single and are thinking about getting involved with someone, it is very worthwhile to get the birth data of a prospective partner. If nothing else, astrology is a labour-saving device that we can use to streamline our efforts and minimize emotional wear and tear.
 If there are positive contacts between the Ascendant, Sun, Moon and Venus, then you will feel at ease with the other person and you will be more likely develop a friendship. 
The same thing goes for entering into a business partnership.
One way to see if the partnership will be successful is to look how the charts fit together. 
If there are a lot of bad aspects, problems will continuously crop up. 
One partner may be consistently pushy and not listen to the concerns of the other. Or even if you do get along well, you may find it hard to make your business a success. 
Astrologically, this means we need to have complementary aspects between the money planets. If there are favourable aspects between Venus, Neptune, Jupiter, Pluto, then prosperity will come. 
When those good aspects are lacking between two charts, no matter how good your ideas, or how long your hours, ultimate success may prove elusive!

A Quick Guide to Career Astrology - Careers By Planet

Here are some rough and quick ready rules for career selection. It’s nearly impossible to suggest which factors are most important since each depends on several other subsidiary associations. It’s best to simply make note of each of them and watch for repeating themes.
  1. House and sign of Sun, Moon and ascendant and ascendant ruler (lagnesh). Look for repeating patterns e.g. A Jupiter-dominated horoscope might have Sun’s dispositor conjunct Jupiter and Moon in Sagittarius with Pisces rising.
  2. All aspects to these. e.g. a close square from Mars to the Moon will often lend a definite martial flavour to the person and influence career choices in that direction.
  3. Any houses with 3 or more planets (outers excluded). This house and the one opposite will usually be connected with career in some basic way.
  4. 10th house and its lord and aspects thereto. Also planets in close aspect to MC.
  5. The strongest planet in the chart such as one that is exalted and unafflicted or receives a close aspect from Jupiter, Venus, or Mercury. Also planets that are heavily aspected by several planets are like pivots for the whole chart. Similarly, slow (less than 20% of normal speed) or stationary planets exercise an undue influence. If connected to the 2nd or 11th houses representing money, strong planets will probably provide the best avenue in life for prosperity.

Career Astrology - Which Career Path Should You Choose?

Judging career aptitudes is one of the most difficult areas of astrology. 

Occasionally, a chart will offer a clear picture that makes it easy to see vocational direction. More often, however, it’s a mixed bag that defies simple categorization. Nonetheless, by following some basic rules of Vedic astrology (along with some Western ideas), we can catch a glimpse into the person’s probable areas of worldly engagement. And by using some of Jyotish’s unique timing techniques, we can predict when the most favourable periods for career advancement will be.

Influences of key houses and planets

In Vedic astrology, one assesses career by blending the influences of key houses and planets. 
The most important house is the first house or lagna. If we had only one house to analyze before making a judgment, this would be it. 
The first house represents the person as a whole and therefore planets or aspects here can shape a person’s outlook that reflects the planets’ significations.
 The first house ruler or lagnesh is also important.
For example:  A person with Pisces rising that has lagnesh Jupiter closely conjoined by Venus will probably need to express that Venusian side in some fundamental way in their lives. But that only narrows down our choices somewhat since Venus encompasses a fairly wide range of vocational options. It may be art, entertainment, beauty and cosmetics, or prostitution, to name a few. We can narrow down these choices even more by looking at the rest of the key factors in the chart!

By forecasting the changing trends and periods of our lives, Jyotish can also enable us to make more evolutionary choices. It offers practical remedial measures to alleviate areas of difficulty, giving us the confidence to manifest our true destiny and create success, happiness, and harmony on all levels.

The Difference Between Jyotish (sidereal zodiac) and Western Astrology  (tropical zodiac)

Jyotish is distinctly different from what we think of as astrology here in the West. The difference is that in Jyotish we use the sidereal zodiac, which is based on the fixed, observable positions of the constellations, as we see them in the sky. 

Western astrology, in contrast, uses what is called the tropical zodiac. The tropical zodiac is based, not on the fixed, observable positions of the constellations but rather on the relative and changeable position of the sun.


How Does Astrology Reading Help Anyone?

While there are many charlatans who promote themselves as astrologers and advise  you to do things like buying gems etc. just based on your birth time - there is a lot more to astrology than character description and couple of predictions!
 For instance, check out this long list of other applications for astrology:
  • Vocational or Career Advice
  • Medical procedure timing
  • Medical information
  • Business timing of product launches, start ups, and negotiations
  • Understanding unconscious motivations driving you from past life experiences

  • Learn how to capitalize the most on opportunities signified by any current planetary movements (transits)
