Rule : Lagna-esae neecha-rasisthe, neecha-graha
samanvithe, neecha-amsae, paapa-varge vaa du-seelo, rogavaan bhaveth = If birth lagna (Ascendant) is weak and is
occupied by malefic or inimical planets or planets that are debilitated or
combusted or retrograde, the person suffers diseases caused by his / her sins
In the sexual and
reproductive sphere, Mars is related to sexually transmitted diseases and often
features in the charts of women undergoing abortion
disease:
- In a horoscope, association of the
Lord of 6th house with any of the planets will show up as a disease. If
both the Karaka and Lord are associated with 6th lord, then problems will
be magnified.
- Position of planets in 6th house
in the horoscope causes problems.
- The planet Mars signifies wounds
and injuries due to accidents, etc.
- Rahu is responsible for
suddenness.
- Saturn represents chronic
diseases.
Please note that
association and aspect by an agent is essential. Weakness of the Karaka/Lord is
important. General Weakness, but not amounting to disease should be looked at
very carefully. If a planet is debilitated or is associated with other inimical
houses, e.g. 12th and 8th, it will not cause disease by itself. However, it
will signify general weakness and lack of development for that body part.
Sexual functions
1.
This especially
relates to the male reproductive system, testosterone levels, testes function
and sperm production. Also the androgen levels of the adrenal cortex. There is
a Mars influence during puberty for development of male secondary sexual
characteristics, and also the ongoing levels of male libido and physical
performance during adult life. Problems include:
2.
Arteriosclerosis of
the penile arteries, penile erection dysfunction, low libido. Consider
Saturn-Mars patterns.
3.
Under-development of
the male system, immature genitalia. A weak Mars, also consider the added
influence of Uranus.
4.
Inflammation of the
gonads or system, e.g. orchitis, prostatitis. Consider also the Moon.
According to the CDC (Centers for Disease Control and Prevention)
there are over 15 million cases of sexually transmitted disease cases reported
annually. The age group at the greatest risk for acquiring an STD is
adolescents and young adults between the ages of 15 - 24 with 3 million
becoming infected each year.
Most STDs are treatable although at one time gonorrhea was
easily cured yet has now become resistant to many of the older traditional
antibiotics. And other STDs, such as AIDS, genital warts (HPV) and herpes, all of
which are caused by viruses, have no cure. Some of these infections are
asymptomatic, some are extremely uncomfortable and others are just down-right deadly!
AIDS, genital warts, hepatitis, herpes, syphilis, and even gonorrhea have all been known to cause death
