Obesity

In Indian Astrology, Obesity is related to Jupiter , the planet of expansion and growth. When Jupiter is afflicted by its position in 6th, 8th or 12th house or debilitated, it can cause overeating disorders, overweight, adipose tissues and obesity. In addition,Ayurveda, the vedic medical science, attributes obesity to kapha dosha. Kapha problem arises due to imbalance of water and earth elements. Since water and earth elements are ruled by Venus and Mercury, any weakness of Mercury and Venus in a horoscope also points to possible obesity. The zodiac signs Cancer, Capricorn and Scorpio should also be examined for identifying obesity. Thus, affliction of Jupiter, Venus and Mercury in an individual horoscope along with afflicted zodiac signs may have relation to FTO gene variant as contributor to Obesity, a conjecture fro further research in astro-genetics.
